Molecular Landscape in Limb Anomalies: Diagnostic Yield and New Candidate Genes

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 3, Page 424-436, March 2026.
In 132 individuals with limb anomalies, diagnostic yield was 36% (47/132), including 25 novel variants, three cases with new phenotypes, and two candidate loci, HOXA11 and a small 2q31.1 deletion. Mouse data and exome‐wide analysis, key in identifying the candidate loci, represent an important opportunity for gene discovery.

Radiologic Insights: Diagnosing Lumbosacral Transitional Vertebrae. Systematic Review of the Literature

open access: yesPain Practice, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction The lumbosacral transitional vertebra (LSTV) has been studied since 1876, with Castellvi developing a classification in 1984 based on its anatomy and laterality. It often goes unnoticed, or its diagnosis is limited to a lumbar spine X‐ray for confirmation. This has led to LSTV being underdiagnosed or even ignored.

Conservative treatment of a comminuted cervical fracture in a racehorse

open access: yesIrish Veterinary Journal, 2008
The 'classical' or 'Hangman' neck fracture involves the odontoid peg (process) of the second cervical vertebra (C2), and is described as an axial, dens or odontoid peg fracture in both the veterinary and human literature.

Morphometric evaluation of the body and odontoid process of the axis vertebra and its clinical significance. A cross-sectional anatomical study.

open access: yesStudent's Journal of Health Research Africa
Introduction: The axis, which is the second cervical vertebra, serves as a pivot, allowing the atlas to rotate and support the head. Despite its small size, this area can lead to significant complications because of the intricate anatomy of the cranio-

Dystopic Os odontoideum: A rare cause of atlantoaxial instability

open access: yesJournal of Spinal Surgery, 2017
Os odontoideum is a relatively common developmental anomaly of the craniovertebral junction (CVJ), which is usually an incidental finding on spine imaging. But the dystopic variety of os odontoideum is uncommon and can be baleful.
