The anterior nasal spine is a bony projection in the skull.

Medially, the anterior surface of the maxilla is limited by a deep concavity, the nasal notch, the margin of which gives attachment to the dilator naris posterior and ends below in a pointed process, which with its fellow of the opposite side forms the anterior nasal spine.

Leprosy in Medieval Denmark--osteological and epidemiological analyses.

Boldsen JL.Author information Institute of Forensic Medicine, Department of Anthropology, ADBOU, University of Southern Denmark. jboldsen@health.sdu.dkAbstractA total of 3033 skeletons from 11 medieval Danish cemeteries and 99 skeletons from the North Scandinavian medieval site of Westerhus were examined for seven lesions indicative of leprosy. The seven lesions are: rounding to the edge of the nasal aperture, degeneration of spina nasalis anterior, degeneration of the alveolar process of the pre-maxilla, porosity or perforation of the palatine process of maxilla, sub-periostal exostoses on the fibula, general swelling of the shaft of the fibula, and degeneration of the 5th metatarsal bone. The dichotomous scores of these lesions were used to estimate sensitivity and specificity of the lesion scores in relation to leprosy and to estimate sample point prevalence of leprosy at death among adults. In turn the estimates of sensitivity and specificity were used to calculate an individual comprehensive statistic, lamda, indicating leprosy status. Among adults the lamda statistic did not associate with age at death, but this cannot be taken as a sign of lack of selective mortality for leprosy but a combination of the opposing effects of long waiting time before developing leprosy related lesions and short survival with these lesions. In urban communities sufferers of leprosy were institutionalized when the leprosarium was established (in Odense around 1275); in rural communities this did not happen but the pattern of burial does indicate an internal segregation of sufferers. In the early Middle Ages (AD 1150-1350) the point prevalence at death among adults of leprosy was higher in rural (25-40 percent) than in urban (10-20 percent) communities, and villages close to town showed lower frequencies of leprosy than villages situated further away from these centers. Leprosy declined in the late Middle Ages, first in towns and cities, later in rural communities. In Odense and Malmö it appears that leprosy was effectively eliminated by 1350 whereas there were still sufferers of leprosy at Øm Kloster around 1550. Leprosy appears to have been less common in North Scandinavia than in South Scandinavia, and there are some indications that leprosy was much more common in the Sámi population than in the North population of North Scandinavia. It is suggested that the rapid and early decline of leprosy in the towns was caused by the breaking of chains of infection by institutionalizing the most affected sufferers from leprosy. In rural communities it is suggested that the later decline of leprosy was brought about by a natural vaccination with the active substance in the Calmette vaccine, Mycobacterium bovis.

[Problems in the development of a comprehensive three-dimensional databank of the human skull for the preoperative preparation of an exact implant for the treatment of bone defects].

Linss W1, Beinemann J, Schleier P, Beleites E, Neumann R, Fried W.Author information 1Institut für Anatomie I, Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena, 07740 Jena, Deutschland. wlinss@mti-n.uni-jena.deAbstractVarious human skulls were scanned with a laser scanner. Impressive Landmarks of the skull were determined and tested to be comparable stored in a uniform coordinate system for subsequent 3-d reconstruction. The Rhinion, the Nasion, the Spina nasalis anterior, the Prosthion, and the Opisthokranion were found to be very qualified for the adjustment in the median plane. The frontal plane was defined by the Rhinion and the Spina nasalis anterior. The Mastoidealia, the Zygomaxillaria and the Orbitalia were used to align the skull in the horizontal plane. The qualification of the database as a fundamental part for the comparison of human skulls and for the discovery of similarities to patient skulls with bone defects is demonstrated by means of 2 clinical cases. A subsequent result is the application to manufacture fitting implants of biocompatible materials for covering huge side-overlapping bone destructions.
