Unexpected difficult airway with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism

International Medical Case Reports Journal, 2014
A critical aspect of safe general anesthesia is providing adequate ventilation and oxygenation. Failed endotracheal intubation and inadequate ventilation with insufficient oxygenation may lead to serious complications, even death. Anesthesiologists rarely encounter unexpected difficult airway problems in daily routine.

A case of Kallmann syndrome associated with a non-functional pituitary microadenoma

Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports, 2018
Kallmann syndrome (KS) is a form of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism in combination with a defect in sense of smell, due to abnormal migration of gonadotropin-releasing hormone-producing neurons. We report a case of a 17-year-old Tunisian male who presented

Shared Lineage, Distinct Outcomes: Yap and Taz Loss Differentially Impact Schwann and Olfactory Ensheathing Cell Development Without Disrupting GnRH‐1 Migration

Glia, EarlyView.
OECs, SCs, and Mel derive from SCPs. Sox10Cre;YapHet;TazKO mice show impaired SC maturation, reduced Mel formation, fewer SCPs, OECs, and olfactory neurons, but normal GnRH‐1 neuron migration. ABSTRACT Olfactory Ensheathing Cells (OECs) are glial cells originating from the neural crest and are critical for bundling olfactory axons to the brain.

Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea After Pharyngeal Fat Injection for Velopharyngeal Insufficiency

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 3‐month‐old male with a chromosomal deletion (8p11.23) underwent cleft lip and palate repair with a postoperative polysomnogram (PSG) showing mild obstructive sleep apnea. He underwent multiple surgical interventions for persistent sleep apnea in subsequent years with minimal improvement. Due to persistent hypernasality, he underwent harvest

Inactivating KISS1 Mutation and Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism [PDF]

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 2012
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is the central regulator of gonadotropins, which stimulate gonadal function. Hypothalamic neurons that produce kisspeptin and neurokinin B stimulate GnRH release. Inactivating mutations in the genes encoding the human kisspeptin receptor (KISS1R, formerly called GPR54), neurokinin B (TAC3), and the neurokinin B ...

Parallel Multi-Gene Panel Testing for Diagnosis of Idiopathic Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism/Kallmann Syndrome

Case Reports in Genetics, 2019
Kallmann syndrome (KS)/Idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) is characterized by hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and anosmia or hyposmia due to the abnormal migration of olfactory and gonadotropin releasing hormone producing neurons.
