Arterial thoracic outlet syndrome by a commonly overlooked anomaly, the cervical rib: A case report

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2023
Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is a constellation of symptoms that occur due to the compression of neurovascular structures traversing the thoracic outlet. TOS manifests in 3 distinct forms: neurogenic, venous, and arterial.

Yield of Whole Genome Sequencing for Pathogenic Single Nucleotide Variants in Congenital Heart Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic yield of pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) single nucleotide variants (SNVs) using whole genome sequencing (WGS) in congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods A systematic search of three databases (2000–2024) was conducted, and two reviewers independently ...

Venous thoracic outlet syndrome and hemodialysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery, 2023
Central venous stenotic disease is reported in 7%–40% of patients needing a central venous catheter for dialysis and in 19%–41% of hemodialysis patients who have had a prior central venous catheter. Half of these patients will be asymptomatic.

Including Aortic Valve Morphology in Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations: Initial Findings and Application to Aortic Coarctation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations quantifying thoracic aortic flow patterns have not included disturbances from the aortic valve (AoV). 80% of patients with aortic coarctation (CoA) have a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) which may cause adverse ...

Recurrent thoracic outlet syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery, 1990
Recurrent symptoms develop in 15% to 20% of patients undergoing either first rib resection or scalenectomy for thoracic outlet syndrome. Over the past 22 years 134 operations for recurrence were performed in 97 patients. Four operations were used: transaxillary first rib resection (26); supraclavicular first rib resection with neurolysis (15 ...

Phenotypic Expansion and Molecular Implications in Recessive FUZ‐Related Ciliopathy

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Our patient with homozygous FUZ p.Arg234Trp, potentially altering FUZ‐CPLANE2 interactions, presented with aorto‐pulmonary window, Hirschsprung disease, and shared phenotypes with previously reported ciliopathy patients. This report provides additional evidence for FUZ as a causative gene for ciliopathy, offering novel insights into the phenotype ...
