Questo testo è quindi il frutto di un progetto condiviso tra Docenti impegnati nell’insegnamento dell’Anatomia Umana e finalizzato a preparare un libro che potesse fornire le conoscenze anatomiche essenziali, senza però perdere mai di vista la precisione delle informazioni.L’Anatomia Umana è ritenuta dalle Studentesse e dagli Studenti una materia affascinante e fondamentale nel loro percorso di studio ma, al contempo, risulta spesso tanto difficile da spingere a uno studio mnemonico. Invece, come amo ripetere in aula durante le lezioni, c’è un’infallibile logica sottesa all’organizzazione del nostro meraviglioso corpo umano. Ed è proprio scoprendo tale logica e applicandola rigorosamente durante lo studio che si può riuscire ad avere un quadro chiaro e preciso della correlazione tra la forma e la funzione negli organi e negli apparati del corpo umano, che consente non solo la comprensione dell’anatomia, ma anche della fisiologia, della fisiopatologia e della farmacologia. Oltre a rappresentare un bagaglio culturale essenziale, lo studio dell’anatomia permette di acquisire una terminologia e un linguaggio appropriato per tutte le professioni scientifiche e sanitarie.Si è quindi formato un gruppo di Colleghi che, con una dedizione elevata di cui sono loro riconoscente, ha lavorato per quasi tre anni per mettere a punto un’opera editoriale snella, essenziale e completa, il cui principio guida è stato facilitare la comprensione e l’apprendimento dell’Anatomia grazie alla massima corrispondenza possibile tra il testo e le immagini. È stato quindi compiuto un grande sforzo da parte di tutti gli Autori e dell’Editore (in particolare nelle persone del Dr. Damoli e Dr. Marzola, che ringrazio personalmente per la paziente collaborazione di tutti questi mesi) per fornire un apparato iconografico ampio e, in molti punti, del tutto innovativo e ad hoc per i giovani che partecipano alle nostre lezioni.Oltre ai Corsi di Studio delle Professioni Sanitarie all’interno della Facoltà di Medicina e Chirurgia, tra cui Infermieristica, Fisioterapia, Logopedia, questo testo si rivolge alle Studentesse e agli Studenti di Biotecnologie, Farmacia, Chimica e Tecnologie Farmaceutiche, Biologia, Ingegneria Biomedica e Scienze Motorie.Dalla prefazione all'opera

Quest'opera offre agli studenti delle scienze motorie una visione integrata e completa dell'anatomia umana

PrefazioneQuando avevo dieci anni, conobbi il pugile Muhammad Ali. Eravamo all’aeroporto O’Hare di Chicago quando mio padre si chinò e mi sussurrò: “Andy, guarda”. “Il più Grande” stava camminando dritto verso di me (credo di essermi bloccato sul posto). La sua mano gigante inghiottì la mia mentre disse: “Piacere di conoscerti”. Continuò per la sua strada e io non mi lavai la mano per una settimana. Quell’estate riempii di stracci il vecchio sacco dell’esercito di mio padre e lo appesi al ramo di un albero. Ogni giorno uscivo per dare pugni alla sacca come il campione. Sebbene il mio programma di allenamento per la boxe non sia durato tutta l’estate, riflettei molto su quel fortuito incontro all’O’Hare mentre scrivevo questo libro. Sul ring, Ali personificava agilità, equilibrio e forza – la trinità del movimento umano. I suoi piedi fluttuavano attorno al ring, i suoi colpi rapidi sfrecciavano nell’aria e i suoi ganci abbattevano gli avversari con una forza che scuoteva la spina dorsale. Per noi comuni mortali, avere la prestanza fisica di figure come quelle di Ali, Mia Hamm o Michael Phelps è un sogno, nella migliore delle ipotesi. Eppure, allo stesso tempo, non c’è mai stato un momento migliore per essere un operatore o un paziente nelle scienze del movimento. Gli ultimi trent’anni hanno visto un’enorme crescita e comprensione nello studio dell’equilibrio, della mobilità e della postura. La terapia manuale, lo yoga, l’allenamento atletico e personale, il massaggio e il Pilates rappresentano solo un esempio dei molti metodi di lavoro che le persone possono ora scegliere di offrire e ricevere per sostenere il corpo in movimento. Sfortunatamente, le azioni fisiche di una persona – alimentate da motivazioni e desideri – non saranno sempre coerenti con i migliori interessi del suo corpo. L’uso eccessivo, il sottoutilizzo o l’uso scorretto di articolazioni e arti possono creare disturbi e dolori sia a breve sia a lungo termine. In qualità di studenti, operatori o docenti nel settore sanitario, parte della vostra missione sarà quella di supportare le necessità del paziente in termini di flessibilità, riduzione del dolore e aumento dell’escursione articolare. Capendo come si sviluppa il movimento e come si manifestano gli squilibri, avrete una maggiore possibilità di essere d’aiuto quando si verificano gli infortuni. Quindi, mentre ci avventuriamo nel mondo della mobilità e della stabilità, dobbiamo essere consapevoli che un campione non deve necessariamente “fluttuare come una farfalla e pungere come un’ape”, come esclamò una volta Ali. Il solo fatto di cambiare una lampadina senza soffrire di mal di schiena può essere un motivo sufficiente per mettere la colonna sonora di Rocky a tutto volume. Spero che questo testo aiuterà voi e i vostri pazienti a diventare campioni a pieno titolo.

Questo nuovo atlante di Anatomia Macroscopica dell’Uomo di Zaccaria Fumagalli e Collaboratori ripropone in termini aggiornati e semplificati quello edito negli anni ’70, che suscitò grande interesse, anche a livello internazionale, specialmente per la sua eccezionale qualità fotografica. In effetti la tecnica fotografica a suo tempo utilizzata, ideata personalmente da Zaccaria Fumagalli, è consistita nella trasposizione all’anatomia macroscopica (in epoca pre-digitale) di metodi di ripresa utilizzati per la fotografia dei diamanti. Questa tecnica innovativa, abbinata all’impiego di particolari obiettivi fotografici, ha consentito la ripresa di dissezioni sempre a fuoco sui vari piani e praticamente prive di riflessi, superando in tal modo i ben noti problemi tecnici che normalmente compaiono nella fotografia dei tessuti bagnati. Come già fece lo stesso Zaccaria Fumagalli nella presentazione della prima edizione dell’atlante, è doveroso ricordare in questa sede l’apporto determinante offerto anche dagli altri Autori (i Proff. Giulio Marinozzi, Enzo Nesci, Agatino Santoro, al tempo stretti collaboratori di Z. Fumagalli) nella realizzazione delle preparazioni anatomiche. A queste ha collaborato attivamente anche il Dr. Enrico Margaritondo, al tempo frequentatore dell’Istituto anatomico dell’Università “La Sapienza”. Rispetto all’edizione precedente, questa nuova versione dell’atlante si presenta in una veste più snella, con un testo estremamente sintetico e con nuovi disegni ideati per una migliore comprensione delle immagini fotografiche; ciò sempre al fine di offrire al lettore le basi dell’anatomia macroscopica esposte con un indirizzo pratico e soprattutto realistico. Inoltre, alla fine di alcuni capitoli, sono state mantenute sintetiche note di dissezione che possono risultare utili come linee guida sia nella pratica dissettoria sia nel semplice studio teorico delle strutture anatomiche. In quest’ottica obiettivo del sottoscritto e degli altri Colleghi curatori di questa nuova edizione è stato quello di realizzare un Atlante che, integrato anche con immagini radiografiche (TAC, RMN, etc.), oltre a servire allo studente di medicina, possa rappresentare un’opera di utile consultazione anche per il medico e per il chirurgo. Questa nuova versione dell’atlante ha richiesto un notevole impegno non solo da parte del sottoscritto, ma anche degli altri curatori dell’opera, che desidero ringraziare vivamente per il contributo offerto. Anche a loro nome, vorrei rivolgere un particolare ringraziamento al Dr. Nicola Piccin, che ha incoraggiato e seguito con passione ed anche con utili consigli, la realizzazione del nostro lavoro. Inoltre, nell’ambito dello staff della casa Editrice Piccin, desidero ringraziare il Dr. Marco Marzola per l’eccezionale lavoro editoriale svolto ed il Sig. Stefano Trainito per i suoi pregevoli disegni. A loro si deve la nuova veste grafica dell’opera che ci auguriamo possa incontrare il favore dei lettori.Roma, Aprile 2024Lorenzo Fumagalli
