Superb learning event at the University of Glasgow Anatomy Dept sponsored by Knee & Shoulder Institute (KSI) under the tutelage of Professor Gordon Mackay.
A full house of about twenty including those seen here, Ross, Stephen, Stuart & Gordon himself, spent the day in theatre scrubs with cadavers investigating knees & shoulder or with the excellent Quinten Fogg with his anthropological and functional take on anatomy.
We learned of the role of supraspinatus in maintaining the head of humerus in gravity situations, the 3 sections to the subscapularis, the fascial sleeve of the lower leg, and the similarities of the pelvis of the male and female!
Finally the day was completed by Dominic Byrne. He dissected around the inguinal ring & conjoined tendon whilst showing exactly where the invagination of the scrotum takes the index finger when testing for sportsman's hernia. He demonstrated where the mesh would be placed, and that it would be likely to suffer 50% shrinkage.
So a great day all round. Thanks to all concerned. We can all look forward to Quinten's book in future as well as the next KSI anatomy roadshow!
