in the future - u will be able to do some more stuff here,,,!! like pat catgirl- i mean um yeah... for now u can only see others's posts :c
Happy Friday everyone. Here is some information on the anatomy of the malleus for you today.
The malleus is the largest of the three ossicles of the middle ear (which include the incus and the stapes). It is just under a centimere long and is comprised of the following components:
- Handle of malleus (manubrium) – attaches to tympanic membrane
- Neck
- Head – rounded part, lies in epitympanic recess superiorly, articulates with the incus via its posterior surface.
- Articular facet for incus - consists of a larger upper portion and a smaller lower portion
- Anterior process – spindle shaped projection which attaches to the anterior wall of the middle ear
- Lateral process – conical projection which attaches to anterior/posterior malleolar folds of tympanic membrane

Hi guys - hope you are all having a great weekend.
Join me on Instagram too @theanatomzone for regular content.
Here is some information about the cricothyroid ligament and some diagrams of the larynx. What better way to spend a Sunday than learning about laryngeal structures?
The cricothyroid ligament (also known as the cricothyroid membrane or cricovocal membrane) connects the thyroid cartilage with the cricoid cartilage below. It is composed of two parts:
- median cricothyroid ligament
- lateral cricothyroid ligament
The median cricothyroid ligament is the thickened part of the ligament in the midline. On either side of this are the lateral cricothyroid ligaments, known also as the conus elasticus, which is the thinner part of the structure which extends superiorly from the upper border of the cricoid cartilage to end in a free margin within the triangular space created by the thyroid lamina above.
These free margins are thickened to form the vocal ligaments which lie under the vocal folds to form the true ‘vocal cords’. The two upper free margins attach anteriorly to the inner surface of the thyroid cartilage in the midline, and posteriorly to the vocal processes of the arytenoid cartilages.
In an emergency situation where there is supraglottic airway obstruction (i.e. above the level of the vocal cords), the cricothyroid ligament can be cut to create a temporary airway.
Video tutorials to follow next week, what topics would you like to see?

Good morning from the UK,
Here is a diagram of the cranial base and foramina from an inferior view.
Can anyone tell me which structures pass through the stylomastoid foramen?
Have a great day,
Peter

Hi everyone - Peter here,
I'm back after a long break, but I've made some changes to the website and will be re-making some of the old content and adding plenty of new material to fill in all the gaps.
One of the new changes on the website is the integration of the 3D models that I use to make the videos - so you can interact with these after you have watched each video to consolidate the principles that you have learnt. You can browse the website to look for new models - I'll be adding lots of these over the coming weeks so keep your eye out.
Let me know if there is any content you would like to see!

Hi,
We hope you are having a restful Sunday, and what better way to spend it than to refresh your knowledge or learn all about the anatomy and configuration of the dural venous sinuses. As always a solid anatomical understanding underpins lasting knowledge of the pathologies which mahy arise. We will be following this video up with videos on clinical pathology related to the dural venous sinuses.
Have a great day,
Peter & Jack

Checkout the latest tutorial on the meninges of the brain! A basic understanding of the anatomy of the meninges is key to understanding the pathology of subdural, subarachnoid and extradural haemorrhage, as well as pathologies like meningioma and meningitis.

We have received several requests for videos on clinically applied anatomy, so we have decided to launch a new series of videos to run alongside our regular anatomy content. We will be producing videos on clinical conditions, by relating anatomical structure to the pathogenicity of specific disease processes. We hope that this will be an interesting way to learn and remember both the anatomy and pathology of various different clinical conditions.
In light of the current pandemic and having received a few suggestions for a video on this topic, we begin the series with a video on SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus responsible for the current COVID-19 pandemic. In this video, we review the viral structure, the ACE-2 receptor interaction and how this gives rise to the clinical symptomatology with a focus on the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome.
Please watch the video and let us know what you think.
Have a great day, and stay safe!
Peter and Jack

Hello Anatomists
We hope you are all well and having a good day
Today we are launching our Patreon page. Obviously the tutorials cost a significant amount in time, animations, software and hardware which we are always trying to upgrade and improve.
We are looking for ways to enable us to ensure these are created on a continual basis long term. Just by watching and clicking the like button has a massive impact on our channel! If you would like to support us further though and gain access to other benefits please check out our patreon page below:
