the oromandibular-limb hypogenesis syndrome comprises a group of anomalies which simultaneously affect the mandible, tongue, and maxilla with or without reductive limb anomalies. it is characterized by failure of development of the intraoral region and distal extremities. multiple and variable deformities of the mandible, maxilla and tongue may occur in combination with a variety of limb defect...

Classical anomaly detection is principally concerned with pointbased anomalies, anomalies that occur at a single data point. In this paper, we present a new mathematical model to express rangebased anomalies, anomalies that occur over a range (or period) of time.

Objective: Spina bifida is one of the most severe birth defects and can happen as a result of disrupted primary neurulation. Congenital vertebra and costa anomalies are more frequently seen with spina bifida, and associated anomalies significantly affect the prognosis of affected children. In this study, we aimed to determine the incidence of scoliosis, costal anomalies, and vertebral deformati...

BACKGROUND Teenage pregnancy may be associated with some forms of congenital anomalies. The objective of this study was to identify the types of congenital anomalies associated with teenage pregnancy. METHODS We carried out a retrospective cohort study of 5 542 861 nulliparous pregnant women younger than 35 years of age with a live singleton birth between 1995 and 2000 in the USA. RESULTS C...

AIM To describe the epidemiology of congenital anomalies in Glasgow with special reference to secular trends. METHODS The prevalence of congenital anomalies was determined retrospectively in 233 777 births using the Glasgow Register of Congenital Anomalies for the period 1980-97. RESULTS The total prevalence of congenital anomalies was 324 per 10 000 births, declining by just over a third f...

a 3 month- old boy was admitted with recurrent severe respiratory distress and refractory to therapeutic options. patient underwent a helical multidetector ct examination. axial, coronal and three- dimensional imaging, revealed tracheal bronchus, stenosis, diverticulum and bronchiectasis. in this situation, ct scanning, perfectly 3d imaging is recommend for rule out congenital tracheobronchial ...

congenital anomalies of coronary arteries, albeit rare, may be significant contributors to angina pectoris, hemodynamic abnormalities, and sudden cardiac death. a 47-year-old man referred to us with atypical chest pain. electrocardiography demonstrated no significant ischemic changes, but cardiac troponin i test was positive. the patient underwent coronary angiography, which revealed a single c...

large intercoronary communications in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease constitute a very rare coronary artery anomaly in which there is a readily visible connection between the 2 coronary arteries with a unidirectional or bidirectional blood flow; consequently, this anomaly may be misinterpreted as a functioning collateral vessel, indicative of an unrecognized proximal coronar...

synophthalmia is a form of cyclopia, in which some elements of two eyes are fused and form a single eye in the middle region of the forehead. the head of a holstein female calf born from a 5-year-old cow was referred to department of pathology, school of veterinary medicine, shahrekord university due to multiple congenital anomalies. the calf had been slaughtered immediately after birth due to ...
