Frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 is a rare variant of frontotemporal dementia, characterized by behavioral, cognitive and motor dysfunctions. The onset of the disease is variable. However, cognitive and behavioral changes usually precede motor symptoms.

A 9 year old boy with Poland's syndrome (absence of the left pectoralis major muscle associated with an ipsilateral malformation of the hand) and isolated growth hormone deficiency, owing to anatomical abnormalities of the pituitary gland, is described. MRI brain scan showed severe hypoplasia of both the sella and anterior lobe of the pituitary gland with absence of the pituitary stalk and ecto...

We investigate kinetic pathways of the DNA melting transition using variable-range versions of the Poland-Scheraga (PS) and Peyrard-Dauxois-Bishop (PDB) models of DNA. In the PS model, we construct a φ-field theory to calculate the critical droplet profile, the initial growth modes, and the exponent γ characterizing the divergence of the susceptibility near the spinodal. In the PDB model, we us...

We report the first case in the medical literature of a pneumothorax complicating fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of a breast lump in a woman with a mild form of Poland's syndrome. The pneumothorax was treated conservatively. This is the first case of breast FNA-related pneumothorax seen in our clinical practice. We believe that the absence of pectoral muscles has increased the risk of t...
