Completion of this task leaves a space that is bounded laterally by the third nerve and medial surface of the intracavernous carotid artery, posteriorly by the portion of dorsum sellae, medially by the pituitary gland, and inferiorly by the floor of the sella turcica and adjacent sphenoid bone.
The transcavernous removal of the posterior clinoid process and a portion of the dorsum sellae extended the exposure proximally along the BA and widened the operative field, allowing enough room to clip the aneurysm in all cases and to place a temporary clip on the proximal BA in Cases 1, 2, and 6.
At transsphenoidal exploration, a hole was found in the dorsum sellae at the level of the floor of the sella turcica.

 Rhinoplasty Dissection Manual: RHINOPLASTY ANALYSIS
A high dorsum with a slight concavity at the rhinion is generally considered the aes­thetic ideal in the white female nose.
A high dorsum that is straight or with a small hump is ideal in a white male nose.
Other notable components of the dorsum include the nasal starting point, which is ideally positioned at the level of the superior palpebral fold, and the tip-supratip relationship, as previously mentioned.

 Mycosporine-like amino acids in the marine dinoflagellate Gyrodinium dorsum: induction by ultraviolet irradiation
For a relative measure of the contribution of the different fractions to the total MAA amount, the integrated peak area at the maximum absorption wavelength of each peak (334 nm for fraction 1) was used.
dorsum in response to high irradiance is a feature likely contributing to the adaptation of this organism to conditions of high irradiance as they occur near surface in their natural habitat.
dorsum from stationary growth phase or that have been transferred to nitrogen free medium is shifted to shorter wavelengths (unpublished data), indicating that there is a change in the MAA composition.

 The Role of the Dorsum of the Tongue
Recent studies implicate the dorsum of the tongue as the primary source of VSC production both in periodontally healthy and diseased populations.
The results indicated the dorsum of the tongue gave the highest VSC values in all subjects (~1600 ppb).
The morphology of the dorsal surface of the tongue is very irregular with the presence of multiple fissures and mucosal papillae.

If minimal reduction of the nasal dorsum is required and the width of the dorsum is proportional to the nasal base, then no narrowing may be required.
Over the dorsum, the periosteum overlying the nasal bones is incised and elevated in continuity with the skin–soft tissue envelope centrally.
Rather, the nasal dorsum should be left with a slight convexity at the rhinion where the skin is thinnest to result in a straight nasal profile.

Normal saline was injected across the dorsum and under the very thin skin around the cartilage graft.
The graft was densely adherent to the dorsum of extremely thin skin so it was impractical to remove it as a unit.
The portion of the graft extending across the nasal bones was purposely left wide and a longitudinal incision made on the dorsal aspect on both sides so that the lateral portions of the graft would fold down.

 [46.04] Eros’ Rahe Dorsum: Surface expression of a plane of weakness, or of strength?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
An intriguing discovery of the NEAR imaging and laser-ranging experiments was the ridge system known as Rahe Dorsum and its possible relation with global-scale internal structure.
However, given the different geometry of Eros, such application of terrestrial experience may not be appropriate for several reasons: The irregular surface gravity means down-slope motion of loose material may not have the same relationship to underlying structure as it does on Earth.
Moreover, a more complete assessment of the topography at Rahe Dorsum indicates that scarp-like geometry is not typical along the ridge.
