Ultrasound of the Inguinal canal : part 1 [PDF]
, 2017 Ultrasound has a major role in detecting disease in the inguinal region. A good knowledge of the anatomy and pathologic findings on ultrasound is required to reach a correct diagnosis.

The relation between parameter curves and lines of curvature on canal surfaces [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 A canal surface is the envelope of a moving sphere with varying radius, defined by the trajectory C(t) (spine curve) of its center and a radius function r(t). In this paper, we investigate when parameter curves of the canal surface are also lines of curvature. Last of all, for special spine curves we obtain the radius function of canal surfaces.

Amyand's hernia in a child with permanent neonatal diabetes due to pancreatic agenesis [PDF]
, 2009 Acute or perforated appendicitis within inguinal hernia is rarely encountered and it is known as Amyand's hernia. We report on the first case occurring in a 4-year-old boy affected by permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus due to pancreatic agenesis, an ...

Stratification and enumeration of Boolean functions by canalizing depth [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Boolean network models have gained popularity in computational systems biology over the last dozen years. Many of these networks use canalizing Boolean functions, which has led to increased interest in the study of these functions. The canalizing depth of a function describes how many canalizing variables can be recursively picked off, until a non ...

A new characterization of canal surfaces with parallel transport frame in Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^{4}$ [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 In this study, we consider canal surfaces according to parallel transport frame in Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^{4}$. The curvature properties of these surfaces are investigated with respect to $k_{1}$, $k_{2}$ and $k_{3}$ which are principal curvature functions according to parallel transport frame. We also give an example of canal surfaces in $\mathbb{

Leiomyoma of the Round Ligament of the Uterus : Case report and review of literature [PDF]
, 2012 Smooth muscle tumours of the round ligament of the uterus are rare and can mimic an inguinal hernia. Preoperative diagnosis can be established by a computed tomography scan of the abdomen or an exploration of the inguinal canal.

A genome-wide association study identifies four novel susceptibility loci underlying inguinal hernia. [PDF]
, 2015 Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most commonly performed operations in the world, yet little is known about the genetic mechanisms that predispose individuals to develop inguinal hernias.
