Background: Extracardiac malformations can be seen in 20-45% of infants with congenital heart disease (CHD). Chromosomal abnormalities exist in 5-10% of patients with CHD. The aim of this study was to assess the frequency of overt extra cardiac malformations in children with CHD. Methods: This descriptive epidemiologic study was conducted on 720 patients with CHD referred to the pediatric ca...

many studies have shown that mycotoxin contamination of agricultural products is a challenge for individual's health espe­cially in developing countries. improper production and storage of foods, prepare conditions for aflatoxin production in crops, especially rice, wheat, pistachio, walnut, almond, etc which are the main sources of foods for people. feeding live­stock by contaminated bread is ...

abstract background: the gamma knife radiosurgery (gkr) is an established management option for cerebral ar-teriovenous malformations (avms). therapeutic benefits of radiosurgery for arteriovenous malformations are complete obliteration of nidus with minimal neurological deficit. methods: radiosurgery was performed between february 2003 and april 2010 at kamraniye day clinic, teh-ran, iran, usi...

Vascular anomalies are a diverse group of related conditions that include vascular tumors (hemangiomas) and vascular malformations (capillary malformations, venous malformations, lymphatic malformations and arteriovenous malformations). In the past decade or so, research has revealed the genetic or molecular basis for some of these lesions. We now know that a number of hereditary vascular malfo...

Chromosomal aberration leading to congenital malformations is an important cause for infant mortality. Forty five infants with congenital malformations affecting various systems were screened by photokaryotyping for evidence of cytogenetic abnormalities after taking thorough family and obstetric history. Among the cases multiple malformations suggestive of Down’s Syndrome was the commonest. The...
