Onchocerca volvulus and lymphatic filariae, causing river blindness and elephantiasis, depend on endosymbiotic Wolbachia bacteria for growth, development, fertility, and survival.Achim Hoerauf, Agwuh, Basáñez, Basáñez, Bosshardt, Cattamanchi, Chib, Churcher, de Andrade, Debrah, Duke, Duke, Gardon, Gelman, Hoerauf, Hoerauf, Hoerauf, Hoerauf, Hoerauf, Hoerauf, Hoerauf, Mand, Mark J.

HPB Surgery, 1992 A case of torsion of the gallbladder is presented. This is a rare condition that occurs more frequently in elderly females, it is associated with anatomical variants related to abnormal fixation of the gallbladder to the liver bed. It is usually diagnosed at laparotomy and treatment consists of cholecystectomy.Gonzalez-Fisher, Ricardo F., Vargas-Ramirez, Lourdes, Rescala-Baca, Elias, Dergal-Badue, Elias +3 moreopenaire +2 more sourcesPhylogenetic relationships of the Wolbachia of nematodes and arthropods [PDF]
