“…[6] It was claimed that an ideal bone graft must include the intact endosteal as well as periosteal vessels with good anastomosis so as to give good results in free transfers. [7] Vascularized fibular grafts (VFG) are one of the most commonly used vascularised grafts, being extensively used for mandibular reconstruction, both alone [8][9][10] and with dental implants [11] and have provided good restoration of masticatory function. The indication of vascularised fibular grafts is also known in upper limb skeletal reconstruction.…”

Variations in the arterial pattern of the upper limb are very common as observed in many cadaveric and angiographic studies. Knowledge of variations in the origin and course of the radial artery is important because they are used for many diagnostic procedures as well as vascular and reconstructive surgeries like coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary artery bypass surgery. During routine dissection in our institute, we observed a case of high origin of the radial artery in a 33 year old male cadaver. It was found to be unilateral; on left side, radial artery was taking origin from 3 rd part of the axillary artery at the lower border of pectoralis minor before the origin of subscapular artery and anterior circumflex humeral artery. It had a superficial course in the arm crossing the median nerve from medial to lateral side. The further course of this superficial radial artery in the forearm was normal and it terminated by forming a deep Palmar arch in hand. These variations may be of great clinical implications for vascular and plastic surgeons and radiologists. Superficial course of radial artery makes it vulnerable to accidental injuries and elevates the risk of bleeding.

“…36 Freeze-dried allografts are the most commonly used grafting material for interbody fusion of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spines. 37,38 Among these grafts, corticocancellous blocks are the most frequently used, [39][40][41] because they combine the properties of the cancellous bone that allows vascular infiltration and the cortical bone that provides rigid fixation and resistance to resorption. 23,24,40,42 Clinical studies have suggested that predictable results could be obtained with implants placed in bone augmented with allograft onlays, achieving a success rate as high as 90% after at least 1-year followup.…”
