The foramen spinosum: a landmark in middle fossa surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The foramen spinosum is an easily identifiable landmark in microsurgery of the middle cranial fossa, and knowledge of the variations in its relationship to the surrounding neurovascular structures is important when operating in this area.

Comprehensive Assessment of the KDM2B‐Associated Neurodevelopmental Disorder and the 12q24.31 Microdeletion Syndrome

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
We set out to characterize genotype–phenotype correlations in the recently delineated KDM2B‐associated neurodevelopmental disorder. We observe a highly penetrant CxxC domain‐related phenotype with distinct facial features supported by GestaltMatcher. In contrast, our findings point to variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance of loss‐of‐function ...

Patent foramen ovale and migraine in ischemic stroke patients: incidence, pathogenetic interrelation and the effects of endovascular closure [PDF]

open access: yesКлиническая практика
BACKGROUND: Migraine is a chronic neurovascular disease with high incidence rate and medical-social significance. Despite more than half a century of studying the disease, the pathogenesis of migraine is not yet completely clear.

Atrial Septal Defects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Atrial septal defects are the third most common type of congenital heart disease. Included in this group of malformations are several types of atrial communications that allow shunting of blood between the systemic and the pulmonary circulations.

Incidence and Predictors of Successful Lead Extraction With Short Active Mechanical Extraction Sheaths Only

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is increasingly performed for malfunction or infection of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED). Active mechanical rotational sheaths facilitate extraction and are available in short and long sizes, but it is unclear how many patients short active mechanical extraction sheaths ...

Transcatheter closure of Ventricular Septal defects in Malta : initial experience [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Ventricular septal defects (VSD) consist of deficiencies of the wall separating the two ventricles. VSDs are the commonest congenital cardiac defects. Small VSDs rarely require intervention, however, larger defects cause ventricular volume overload with ...

Virtual brain endocasts of the palaeanodont Metacheiromys marshi and the neurosensory evolution of early Pholidotamorpha

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We describe the endocranial anatomy of Metacheiromys marshi. Decrease in olfaction and eye movement control occurred through time in Pholidotamorpha and is likely linked to fossorial adaptations. The development of the orbital gyrus might be related to the evolution of myrmecophagy and the emergence of a protrusile tongue in early Pholidotamorpha ...

Adult brain abscess associated with patent foramen ovale: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2007
Brain abscess results from local or metastatic septic spread to the brain. The primary infectious site is often undetected, more commonly so when it is distant.
