Avascular Necrosis and Minimal Trauma Fractures in Telomere Biology Disorders
Avascular Necrosis (AVN) and Minimal Trauma Fractures (MTF) cause significant morbidity in people with Telomere Biology Disorders (TBDs). They occur more frequently in young patients and in those with autosomal recessive (AR) or X‐linked recessive (XLR) than in autosomal dominant (AD) genotypes.

ABSTRACT Background and purpose Detection of patent foramen ovale (PFO) has become important with the increasing use of left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) for advanced heart failure. After LVAD implantation there may be increased right to left shunting through a PFO causing hypoxemia.

This case highlights the visual confirmation of lesion regression by bronchoscopy after bronchial artery embolisation.

It showed that people with migraine, especially with aura, often have PFO, but it is not certain whether closing this heart opening helps prevent strokes in these patients.
