Anatomical terms are unique in their formation. These terms are derived from the ancient Greek language as well as Latin. The use of these terms minimizes confusion when discussing anatomy among healthcare workers, scientists, and other fields such as veterinary...
Regional temperature gradients in the distal extremities, rapid cell proliferation, gravitational forces, and vascular anatomy may contribute to the typical localization to the palms and soles [10, 11]. After extravasation, the drug may penetrate the stratum corneum and accumulate there, causing a ...

Its vascular anatomy is well described [17]. In contrast, the temporoparietal fascia flap has a pedicle length of approximately 4 cm and a maximum flap size of 14 × 10 cm [28]. Overall, the serratus fascia flap is associated with low donor-site morbidity and functional deficits [29]. ...
