The talus is the tallest bone in the foot and also one of the bones that makes up the ankle joint. The treatment options available for Talar pathology are limited with unsatisfactory results affecting the quality of life. However, very little is reported in the literature about the morphology of the talus. A better understanding of ankle anatomy is essential for better design of ankle prosthesis, especially when aiming to restore the Normal Anatomy of the Ankle joint. Aim: This study was aimed at measuring various dimensions of Talus on Radiographs and its measurements can act as baseline data and help in designing better anatomically and functionally effective prosthesis. Materials and Methods: The present study was conducted on patients between the age group of 25 years to 50 years who were scheduled for anteroposterior and lateral plain ankle radiographs because of clinical hindfoot symptoms. All patients without radiological pathologies, fully able to load the foot were included in the study. In a sample size of 96 m easurements such as length, breadth, height and intermalleolar distance were noted down for 2 years in the Department of Radiology, K.M.C. Mangalore. Results: As observed in the study the right Tali exhibited greater measurements than the Left. Conclusions: An anatomical compatible prosthesis can be developed due to the baseline data available and keeping in mind that right Talus exhibited higher measurements than left, hence prosthetic design would vary for each side.

The anatomy of arterial variational pattern of lower limb are utmost important for catheterization, reconstructive procedures and surgical intervention for embolism. LCFA is used as a long vascular pedicle in anterolateral perforator thigh flap and in breast reconstruction after mastectomy. Ignorance of variations can lead to fatal intraoperative haemorrhage and incapacitating sensory and motor deficit due to injury to femoral nerve branches which are closely related to these vessels 1 .

Background: The coracoacromial ligament (CAL) as an integral component of the coracoacromial arch, plays an important role in shoulder biomechanics, joint stability, and proprioception thus maintains static restraint due to its dynamic interactions with ligaments, muscles and bony elements around the shoulder joint. Age-dependent changes due to chronic stress and cellular degradation cause thickening and stiffening of the CAL that may contribute to a spectrum of shoulder pathology from capsular tightness to rotator cuff tear arthropathy and impingement syndrome.Objectives: This study conducted to observe the different types of CAL and its relationship with coracoacromial veil. Materials and Methods:The study conducted on 50 upper limbs at Bowring & Lady Curzon medical college & research institute and Bangalore medical college & research institute. The upper limbs were dissected at the shoulder joint complex and acromion process and coracoid process were appreciated and coracoacromial ligaments were appreciated for their types and morphometry.Results and Conclusion: Four types of CAL were observed in this study. These are Y shaped CAL in 12 (24%) upper limbs, broad banded in 8 (16%), quadrangular band shaped in 25 (50%) and multiple banded in 5(10%) upper limbs. Coracoacromial veil were observed. All the above ligaments were had normal attachments.
