Weismann-Netter-Stuhl Syndrome:A family report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Weismann-Netter-Stuhl (WNS) syndrome is a rare skeletal anomaly that affects the diaphyseal part of both the tibiae and fibulae with posterior cortical thickening and anteroposterior bowing. This anomaly is usually bilateral and symmetrical. The patients are generally of short stature. In some cases, a family history suggesting genetic transmission of a mutation with an unknown locus has been reported. In this paper we present an infant with WNS syndrome with bilateral involvement of the femur. Similar clinical findings were defined in three other family members.

Craniovertebral malformation complex in a child with Weismann-Netter-Stuhl syndrome.
OBJECTIVE Bowing of the legs is usually thrown into the basket of vitamin D deficiency rickets; therefore, a significant number of affected children can be misdiagnosed and improperly managed. This case illustrates how the careful clinical and radiological assessment of such a case can lead to the adequate understanding of its etiology. DESCRIPTION We report a sporadic case of a 2-year-old ma...
متن کاملOn the Use of Histograms for Processing Exact Aggregate Queries in Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are typically used to collect values of some phenomena in a monitored area. In many applications, users are interested in statistical summaries of the observed data, e.g., histograms reflecting the distribution of the collected values. In this paper we discuss how to leverage on a histogram query processing algorithm in order to process other aggregate queries wi...
متن کاملThe Discovery of a Twelfth Wolf-Rayet Star in the Small Magellanic Cloud
We report the discovery of a relatively faint (V = 15.5) early-type WN star in the SMC. The line strength and width of He II λ4686 emission is similar to that of the other SMC WNs, and the presense of N V λ4603, 19 emission (coupled with the lack of N III) suggests this star is of spectral type WN3-4.5, and thus is similar in type to the other SMC WRs. Also like the other SMC WN stars, an early...
متن کاملA world review of fungi, yeasts, and slime molds in caves
literature on cave fungi (127 species in 59 genera) but did not include all relevant papers available at that time, and many articles have since been published. Landolt et al. (1992) summarized the few records of slime molds found in caves, but otherwise there has been no comprehensive review of the microf lora in cave habitats. Here we organize data from 225 studies dealing with fungi, yeasts,...
متن کاملCompletely extruded talus without soft tissue attachments
A completely extruded talus without any remaining soft tissue attachments is extremely rare. The present report describes treatment of a 45-year-old man who sustained a completely extruded talus injury following a rock-climbing fall. Upon admission, the extruded talus was deep-frozen in our bone bank. The open ankle joint underwent massive wound debridement and irrigation for 3 days. Four days ...
