The document summarizes the anatomy of the orbit, including its development, shape, dimensions, walls, contents, and openings. It describes the bones that form each wall (roof, floor, lateral, medial), as well as the structures and spaces within the orbit. Key points include that the orbit develops from mesenchyme surrounding the optic vesicle, has a quadrangular pyramid shape, and contains the eyeball, extraocular muscles, nerves and vessels. The walls transmit structures through openings like the superior orbital fissure.
Details about the anatomy with clinical importance. An easy guide for understanding the walls, surgical spaces, orbital contents, venous and arterial supply. Hope its helpful for your examinations too!!
Orbit is essentially a socket for the eyeball, containing the muscles, nerves and vessels .
It resembles a quadrilateral pyramid whose base is directed forward, laterally and slightly downwards
It is not a true quadrilateral pyramid, since the floor ( shortest orbit wall ) fails to reach the apex.
Also, because the orbit is developed around the eye and is bulged out by the lacrimal gland, it tends towards spheroidal form.

Anatomy of Orbit and its clinical importanceAshish Gupta
It's a presentation of Anatomy of Bony Orbit and its applied aspects. It's been made by compiling images from many sources and includes almost all the information needed for a postgraduate .
Base of orbit is closed partly by globe , extraocular muscles
& their fascial expansions.
- These fascial expansions & sup and inferior oblique muscles
bound 5 orifices between them & orbital margins .
-These are the communications between orbital cavity & deep
portion of eyelid.
- Through them blood & pus passes out of orbit . Further
spread in lid is prevented by orbital septum.
Clinical significance:
* A sharp object injury through upper lid penetrates the roof &
may damage frontal lobe.
* Orbital roof anamolies or fractures can lead to pulsatile
exophthalmos.
* Since roof is neither perforated by major nerves nor vessels , it
can be easily nibbed away in transfrontal orbitotomy

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

DEVELOPMENT OF ORBIT
• Bony orbit is formed from the mesenchyme that encircles the optic
vesicle
• Orbital bones: 6th to 7th week of gestation (starts with maxilla
)
• During this time optic vesicle rotates 170 degree anteriorly.
3. •Orbital walls : derived from neural crest cells which expand to form
1.Frontonasal process
2.Maxillary process.
• Capsule of forebrain forms the orbital roof.
4. SHAPE AND DIMENSIONS
Quadrangular truncated pyramids.
Depth – 42mm (medial wall) , 50mm (lateral wall)

•Formed by orbital plate of frontal bone & lesser wing of sphenoid at the apex
of roof
•Relations : superiorly roof separates the orbit from the frontal lobe of brain.
anterolaterally is the lacrimal fossa containing the lacrimal gland
anteromedially is the trochlear fossa giving attachment to the
fibrous pulley for the tendon of SOM.
•Apex of roof formed by lesser wing sphenoid has the optic foramen.(optic nerve
and ophthalmic artery).
10. •Roof of orbit is separated from its lateral wall by superior orbital fissure through
which orbit communicates with middle cranial fossa.
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE
