Anatomical variations of the sphenoid sinus structure and types of its pneumatization by M. V. Nersesyan, H. Ghazal, V. I. Popadyuk

“…Therefore, it is consider that, both endoscopic sphenotomy and transsphenoidal surgeries are contraindicated in some types of sphenoid sinus pneumatization due to the high risk of complications.A detailed analysis of sphenoid sinus pneumatization variants, its relationship with neighboring neurovascular structures is presented in our paper. The presented data will allow for a better understanding of its anatomy, which is important for the detailed planning of endoscopic sphenotomy and transsphenoidal operations. …”

Competition for resources can reshape the evolutionary properties of spatial structure. by Anush Devadhasan, Oren Kolodny, Oana Carja

“…We use these theoretical results together with spatial representations from imaging data to show that, for ductal carcinoma, where tumor growth is highly spatially constrained, with cells confined to a tree-like network of ducts, the topological structure can lead to higher rates of deleterious mutant hitchhiking with metabolic driver mutations, compared to tumors characterized by different spatial topologies.…”
