Identification of potential key ferroptosis- and autophagy-related genes in myelomeningocele through bioinformatics analysis

Heliyon
Myelomeningocele is a common congenital anomaly associated with polygenic disorders worldwide. However, the intricate molecular mechanisms underlying myelomeningocele remain elusive. To investigate whether ferroptosis and ferritinophagy contribute to the

Genomic Contributors to Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia: Results of Exome Sequencing in 560 Probands and Cross Reference of Findings in an Independent Cohort

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 8, Page 1821-1831, August 2026.
ABSTRACT There is a strong genetic contribution to the etiology of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). This study evaluated genetic testing results and diagnostic yield for fetuses and children with CDH. This was a retrospective cohort study of exome sequencing (ES) performed at GeneDx for fetuses and children ≤ 18 years of age with CDH compared ...

Subcutaneous Sacrococcygeal Lipoma in a 7 Months Old Female Mimicking Myelomeningocele and Sacrococcygeal Teratoma, A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT A 7‐month‐old female presented with a congenital sacrococcygeal mass. While SCT and MMC are common, MRI ruled them out, leading to simple excision. Histopathology revealed a rare subcutaneous sacrococcygeal lipoma. This case emphasizes the use of advanced imaging to differentiate benign soft‐tissue lesions from spinal or neoplastic pathologies

Lethal Consequences in an Infant with Myelomeningocele Following an Inadvertent Treatment

Journal of Forensic Science and Medicine, 2016
Myelomeningocele (MMC) is a protrusion of spinal cord contents and meninges through a vertebral defect. Iatrogenic deaths of patients with MMC are rarely encountered in forensic practice. In our case, a 3-month-old female was born with a lumbosacral cyst,

Essential embryology for the Canadian pathologists’ assistant

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 19, Issue 7, Page 1134-1156, July 2026.
Abstract Pathologists' assistants (PAs) are pivotal in healthcare, conducting autopsies and examining tissues under a pathologist's guidance. Embryology knowledge is crucial for PAs to accurately assess anomalies and identify pathologies. Yet, it is often overlooked in academic PA training programs.
