“…Lamina perforation among males had frequently been observed on the right humerus, while among females and younger adults it was more frequent on the left humerus, resulting in more septal apertures than in older ones (all these differences insignificant). These results are in contradiction to the majority of studies, where it was more prevalent in females [2,17,29,32,33,43], and left asymmetry has commonly been observed [2,17,18,23,29,33,34,35,43]. However, there are reports of higher incidence of subtrochanter foramen among males [12,24].…”

“…It can be hypothesized that hypermobility of the elbow, as a consequence of ligamentous and/or muscles laxity, could be the reason of increased impingement of ulnar processes on the septum [22]. Weaker muscles can lead to higher joint laxity that causes joint hypermobility, impingement of coronoid and olecranon processes on the humeral lamina, which can finally lead to septal aperture formation [22,32]. It may be stated that [2,3,38,43] have found that a less robust humerus is more likely to have septal perforation.…”

“…A number of researchers have suggested that septal aperture is simply connected with the impingement on the humeral septum by the olecranon and the coronoid process (a wider range of flexion and extension at the elbow joint, an overgrown coronoid or the olecranon process -mechanical theory) [3,12,22,37]. There are some other assumptions regarding the aetiology of the subtrochlear foramen, namely to connect the septal aperture with bone robusticity [2,3,38,43], osteoarthritis, or osteoporosis [32]. However, the results have been questioned [22].…”

“…10 Large olecranon process was suggested by few. 11 Some believe that supratrochlear foramen is formed by resorption from the anterior surface of septum. It was suggested by Mays that hyperextension of elbow joint results in perforation due to resorption of humeral septum, when coronoid processes of ulna make contact with it.…”

This study is conducted to know the incidence of supratrochlear foramen and its morphometry. A total of 38 humerus bones are studied in the Indian population sample, in light of available literature, and clinical, racial, and regional significance is drawn, if present. Materials and methods:Thirty-eight humerus bones belonging to the museum of the Department of Anatomy, Rohilkhand Medical College & Hospital, Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, India, were studied to observe the incidence of supratrochlear foramen anomaly in the Indian population sample. Results:The supratrochlear foramen anomaly was observed in 7 out of 38 humeri studied, i.e., 18.4%. Conclusion:The findings are of considerable clinical, racial, and regional significance, and are discussed.

“…Je pravděpodobné, že dva případy foramen supratrochleare humeri zaznamenané ve zkoumaném vzorku jsou přiřadi-telné jednomu jedinci. Frekvence výskytu této variety se pohybuje v širokém rozmezí od téměř 0 % do 58 % v závislosti na populaci (Papaloucas et al 2011). Nejvyšší výskyty byly zaznamenány u afrických a indických populací, u domorodých austrálců či amerických indiánů (Li et al 2015).…”

ABSTRAKT Při záchranném archeologickém výzkumu slavkovské šibenice byly objeveny lidské kosterní pozůstatky, kumulované v několika shlucích v neanatomickém uspořádání. Při laboratorním zpracování byly určeny základní demografické charakteristiky souboru. Vzhledem k charakteru nálezu nebylo možno identifikovat kompletní kostry jedinců. Minimální počet jedinců (s využitím pravých stehenních kostí) byl stanoven na 15. Tělesná výška byla odhadnuta s využitím metody organické korelace dle Sjøvolda. Nejvyšší jedinec měřil 173,0 cm (±4,52 cm), nejnižší jedinec měřil 157,5 cm (±4,52 cm). Kromě dospělých jedinců byly objeveny i pozůstatky dvou nedospělých jedinců (dožitý věk byl odhadnut na 16-17 let). Všichni dospělí jedinci příslušeli do věkových kategorií adultus a maturus, nejstarší z nich se dožil kolem 50 let. Mezi kosterními pozůstatky se nacházely ostatky jedné ženy. V souboru byly také nalezeny některé velmi zřídka se vyskytující anatomické variety (spina bifida anterior et posterior atlantis, os bregmaticum), doklady komplikovaného hojení traumatu i doklady nezhojených fraktur kostí dlouhého typu vzniklých perimortem. U dvou kostí byly též zaznamenány doklady zánětlivého onemocnění (pravděpodobně syfilis). KEY WORDS gallows; skeletal remains; trauma; anatomical varietiesABSTRACT During a development-led archaeological research of the Slavkov gallows non-anatomically positioned human remains were uncovered in several complex accumulations. The remains were analyzed in a laboratory and fundamental demographic characteristics of the sample were assessed. With regard to the character of the find complete individual skeletons were not identifiable. Minimum number of individuals (MNI, using right femora) was established at 15. Body height was estimated using the organic correlation method by Sjøvold. The tallest individual measured 173,0 cm (±4,52 cm), the shortest individual measured 157,5 cm (±4,52 cm). Besides adult individuals also skeletal remains of two adolescents were uncovered (their age at death was estimated at 16-17 years of age). All the adult individuals belonged to the adultus and maturus categories, the oldest one lived to be approximately 50 years old. Skeletal remains of one female were uncovered. Also, the skeletal remains sample yielded some very infrequent anatomical varieties (spina bifida anterior et posterior atlantis, os bregmaticum), evidence of complicated healing process of skeletal trauma as well as evidence of non-healed long bone fractures which originated perimortem. In two cases of long bones evidence of inflammatory disease (likely syphillis) was observed.
