Single‐stage orthognathic correction of campylorrhinus lateralis in foals using transection and fixation: Surgical description and outcome of four horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Campylorrhinus lateralis (‘wry nose’) is a rare congenital maxillofacial deformity of foals resulting in compromise of the airway and severe class 4 malocclusion. Various surgical techniques to correct the deformity have been described, but contemporary data on single‐stage transection and fixation, including use of a rib graft, and

Effect of volume for injection of the 15th to 16th thoracic interspinous space: An ex vivo study

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Impinging (overriding) spinous processes (ISPs) are commonly identified in horses with back pain. Diagnostic analgesia is widely used as the clinical reference standard for confirming association with clinical signs of back pain, but the specificity of dorsal spinous region diagnostic analgesia remains poorly understood.

The Hidden Architecture of Pancreatic Ducts: 3D Anatomical Reconstruction and Its Implication on Pancreatic Resection

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Purpose Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a common complication after pancreatic surgery and its mechanisms remain incompletely understood. While the diameter of the main pancreatic duct is well‐known to be a risk factor of POPF, the impact of branch duct's (BD) anatomy is not known.

Structural Covariance Analysis of Altered Brain Development in Neonates With Congenital Heart Disease After Surgery

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Brain development is altered in neonates with congenital heart disease (CHD), with well‐characterised reductions in regional brain volumes and enlargement of CSF spaces. However, perioperative morphological changes remain incompletely understood. Purpose To identify brain regions showing spatial patterns of coordinated expansion and

Lbx1-expressing cells lacking the repellent EphA4 receptor are involved in axonal midline crossing in the spinal cord and evoke a minor gait defect [PDF]

, 2014
Most limbed animals, including mice and human beings, show alternating hindlimb movement mediated by neuronal circuits in the spinal cord. However, when the repulsive EphA4 receptor expressed by subsets of spinal neurons is mutated, hindlimbs lose ...
