When my professor was teaching us the OIAs for the muscle I noticed that for the insertion of the sartorius, gracilis, semitendinosus were all differently worded for the same insertion. I refused to memorize them that way because I found out that they all form one single tendon at the insertion point. This tendon is known as the "pes anserinus" Just a helpful fact wh

MBCC is a specific type of skin cancer. It stands for Metastatic Basal Cell Carcinoma. The key part here is the metastatic nature of the cancer; in other words, its ability to spread throughout the body. Non-metastatic BCC cases are generally easily curable if they are diagnosed quickly and accurately. MBCC is often misdiagnosed or not diagnosed at all. As a result, the patient will
