Müllerian duct anomalies are rare in the general population, occurring less than 3% of women, but much more prevalent female patients with anorectal malformation, up to 30% these patients. Unicornuate uterus a rudimentary non-communicating horn is congenital anomaly development which can be seen isolation or conjunction other anomalies, several case reports described VACTERL association. These ...

INTRODUCTION Pregnancy has been linked to increased rates of arteriovenous malformation rupture. This link remains a matter of debate and very few studies have addressed the management of arteriovenous malformation in pregnancy. Unruptured arteriovenous malformations in pregnant woman generally warrant conservative management due to the low rupture risk. When pregnant women present with rupture...

A 65-year-old woman with a history of rheumatoid arthritis presented with a rare case of acquired Chiari malformation secondary to atlantoaxial vertical subluxation, associated with congenital atlanto-occipital assimilation. Syringomyelia and tetraparesis improved immediately after posterior fossa decompression and simultaneous occipito-cervical junction fusion. The progression of acquired Chia...

Vein of Galen abnormality is a rare congenital malformation of blood vessels of the brain and while often referred to as "Vein of Galen aneurysm" its is really not an aneurysm but usually an arteriovenous (AV) malformation. The following case report will be of interest to sonographers as it demonstrates early prenatal diagnosis of this intracranial vascular abnormality causing cardiac overload ...

A family is described in which four subjects in two sibships had typical split hand/foot malformation. The possibility of the existence of a rare autosomal recessive form of the malformation is discussed, as well as a two locus model. In the two locus model the dominant mutation leading to the split hand/foot malformation is controlled by a gene at another locus. A dominant mutation at the cont...

BACKGROUND Intracranial arteriovenous malformation rarely causes pulmonary hypertension and congestive heart failure in the newborn. Its diagnosis is challenging because cardiomegaly may suggest an intra-cardiac structural lesion. CASE PRESENTATION We present two newborns, one 2-day-old male and the other 11-day-old female, with intracranial arteriovenous malformation and misdiagnosis of cong...

An arteriovenous malformation is an anomaly of capillary development that results in a direct connection between branches of an artery and veins, with no intervening capillary network. Vascular malformations of the mediastinum presenting as mediastinal masses are very rare. We report a histologically proven case of a posterior mediastinal arteriovenous malformation in a 42-year-old man that was...

DWI was performed in fetuses with callosal agenesis and unilateral cortical malformations. ADC values were retrospectively measured in the developing white matter underlying the cortical malformation and compared with the corresponding contralateral white matter. In all 3 patients, ADC values were lower under the areas of cortical malformation compared with the normal contralateral side. Our fi...

Split hand/split foot malformation is a human developmental disorder characterized by missing central digits and other distal limb malformations. Multicystic renal dysplasia is the most common cause of an abdominal mass in the new born period and is the most common cystic malformation of the kidney in infancy. Here, we report a case of split hand/split foot malformation with a submucosed cleft ...
