A brief discussion of the implications of bladder stones on individual health and broader epidemiological constraints to illustrate the depth such discoveries can bring to our understanding of ancient...
The burial of Ind. 286 was disturbed. The identification of a bladder stone presumes the stone would have been found within the pelvic cavity, which cannot be confirmed. Other graves in the vicinity o...
Radiographic and chemical analysis would provide more information to strengthen the certainty of the differential diagnosis....
The general objective of this study is to identify the presence of hazardous elements in the soils of five urban cemeteries in the city of Passo Fundo, in southern Brazil, and to design solutions (arc...
Investigations of non-adult remains are particularly suitable for finding epidemic periods in past populations. This study presents a probable unique example of osseous manifestation of tuberculosis o...
This paper aims to present one of the first osteoarchaeological cases of orbital osteomyelitis and provides the best diagnostic criteria to identify its pathophysiological changes....

Macroscopic, tomographic, and histological analyses were performed using standard methods....
The skeleton shows irregularities in the architecture of the left supraorbital margin. CT analysis reveals the presence of a radiotransparent area involving the diploe and the external cranial table. ...
A careful differential diagnosis based on macroscopic, radiological, and histological evidence suggests a case of orbital osteomyelitis....
This case study represents one of the few osteoarchaeological evaluations of ocular chronic osteomyelitis diagnosed using macroscopic skeletal, computed tomography, and histological analysis. As such,...
The diagnosis cannot be stated with certainty, and only probable diagnoses can be proposed. Although we referred especially to clinical literature, it is necessary to consider that the severity of con...
This case provides further insights into the presence of this condition in the past....
