Blunt injury of the abdominal aorta
This review of 27 cases of blunt injury of the abdominal aorta includes 24 cases reported in the literature and three new cases. Automobile accidents were the cause of this condition in 19 patients (70%). Clinical presentation was acute in 70% of the cases, and consisted of either acute arterial insufficiency or an acute abdomen.

Ocular Findings as the Most Striking Manifestation of a SMAD3 Variant
ABSTRACT Loeys‐Dietz syndrome (LDS) is a heritable connective tissue disorder with variable expressivity. It is a multisystemic condition mainly characterized by a propensity for arterial aneurysms and dissections, skeletal manifestations, hypertelorism, bifid uvula, craniosynostosis, and cutaneous features.

Acute spontaneous isolated dissection of abdominal aorta
<ul><li>Aortic dissection occurs when the layers of the aorta separate as a result of extra luminal cavity of blood through an intimal tear. Dissection limited to the abdominal aorta is rare.

Improved surgical technique for the establishment of a murine model of aortic transplantation. [PDF]
Aortic allotransplantation is a reliable procedure to study the evolvement of chronic rejection in mice. The progressive nature of this process in mice is characterized by diffuse and concentric myointimal proliferation which is inevitably associated ...

AP2M1 Is a Candidate Gene for Microcephaly and Intellectual Disability in 3q27.1 Deletions
ABSTRACT Deletions of the 3q26.33q27.2 region appear to correlate with a distinct phenotype, although there are few reported cases. Here, we present seven previously unreported individuals carrying de novo 3q27 deletions (under 5 Mb), which include the AP2M1 (adaptor‐related protein complex 2, mu‐1 subunit) gene and summarize data from 12 previously ...

Treatment of abdominal aorta aneurysms [PDF]
Background The best treatment of abdominal aorta aneurysms of the segments below the emergency of the renal arteries are still under discussion. In literature there are several studies that compare the retroperitoneal (R.P.) approach with the transperitoneal (T.P.) one or that suggest their possible variations. The R.P. approach offers the possibility

ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal defects and immunodeficiency syndrome 1 (GIDID1) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by biallelic variants in TTC7A. GIDID1 is characterized by a broad clinical spectrum ranging from very early‐onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD) to multiple intestinal atresia (MIA) with or without immunological manifestations.
