Double Anterior Interventricular Arteries: Prevalence and Morphological Types-A Dissection Study.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of double anterior interventricular artery using the dissection method.

Metode: A retrospective study was conducted between 2010 and 2024 at the Anatomy and Embryology Laboratory of the Victor Babes University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Timisoara. Eighty cases were analyzed for morphological variants of the coronary arteries, especially the anterior interventricular artery.

Replaced right hepatic artery originated from splenic artery, in association with gastrosplenic trunk: a case report.

The authors report a case of a 74-year-old woman found to have an extremely rare case highlighted by multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography, with the presence of a replaced right hepatic artery (RRHA) arising from the splenic artery (SA). In this case, the SA arose from a gastrosplenic trunk (GST). The GST had an endoluminal diameter of 9.

Unilateral left four renal arteries: case report using MDCT angiography.

We report a very rare case of a 57-year-old male who presented four left renal arteries (RAs) [one main RA and three additional renal arteries (AdRAs)] highlighted incidentally on multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography, which was used to investigate the vascular system of the lower limbs. The distance between the extreme points of RAs origin (upper and lower points of origin) from abdominal aorta (AA) was in the left part of 9.83 cm.

Replaced right hepatic artery arising from inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery, in association with left multiple renal arteries: a case report using MDCT angiography.

The authors illustrate a case of a 61-year-old male who presented an extremely rare association of anatomical variations highlighted by multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography, with a replaced right hepatic artery (RRHA) arising from inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery (IPDA), in association with left multiple renal arteries (RAs). The celiac trunk (CT) arises from the abdominal aorta (AA), at the level of middle 1∕3 of L1 vertebral body. The superior mesenteric artery (SMA) origin was located at the anterior aspect of AA, at 2.

No clinical utility of common polymorphisms in IGF1, IRS1, GCKR, PPARG, GCK1 and KCTD1 genes previously associated with insulin resistance in overweight children from Romania and Moldova.

Background Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified IGF1, IRS1, GCKR, PPARG, GCK1 and KCTD1 as candidate genes for insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (T2D). We investigated the associations of these previously reported common variants in these genes with insulin resistance in overweight children from Romania and Moldova. Methods Six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), IGF1 (rs35767), IRS1 (rs2943634), GCKR (rs780094), PPARG (rs1801282), GCK1 (rs1799884) and KCTD15 (rs29941), were genotyped in 100 overweight children along with clinical and metabolic parameters.

Common hepatic artery arising from the left gastric artery: a case report using MDCT angiography and a brief review of the literature.

We report a very rare case of a 67-year-old male with the presence of a common hepatic artery (CHA) arising from the left gastric artery (LGA) in association with a presence of a gastro-splenic trunk (GST), found incidentally on multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography, used to investigate peripheral vascular disease. The GST arises from the anterior aspect of the abdominal aorta (AA), at the level of lower 1∕3 of L1 vertebral body. The GST has a slightly concave trajectory to the right, and ends dividing into splenic artery (SA) and LGA.

Hepato-spleno-mesenteric trunk, in association with an accessory left hepatic artery, and common trunk of right and left inferior phrenic arteries, independently arising from left gastric artery: case report using MDCT angiography.

The authors report the case of a 53-year-old male found to have an extremely rare case of a triple anatomical variation highlighted by multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography, with the presence of a hepato-spleno-mesenteric trunk (HSMT) in association with an accessory left hepatic artery (ALHA) and a common trunk origin of right (RIPA) and left (LIPA) inferior phrenic arteries from left gastric artery (LGA) arising independently from the abdominal part of aorta (AA). The HSMT with an endoluminal diameter of 10.9 mm at its origin, and a length of 4 mm arose from the anterior wall of the AA at the level of 1∕2 upper part of the L1 vertebral body.

A Single Step Mutation at D3S1358 Locus in a DNA Paternity Testing with 2 Alleged Fathers.

Background: Genetic information is used very frequently in human identification in civil or judicial cases. Establishing the kinship relationship between a child and his biological father involves many ethical facts. We describe a DNA paternity case with two alleged fathers and an inconsistency between alleged father-2 and the child at D3S1358 locus.

An anomalous origin of the gastrosplenic trunk and common hepatic artery arising independently from the abdominal aorta: a case report using MDCT angiography.

The authors describe a case of a 61-year-old female patient, which presented on multidetector computed tomographic (MDCT) angiography a gastrosplenic trunk (GST) and common hepatic artery (CHA) arose independently from abdominal aorta (AA). The GST arose from the anterior wall of the AA, at the level of upper edge of the L1 vertebral body. The left gastric artery (LGA) arose from the superior wall of the GST.

Ectopic kidney with malrotation and bilateral multiple arteries diagnosed using CT angiography.

Right renal ectopia with malrotation was seen on a CT angiography in a 64-year-old male patient. Bilateral triple renal arteries were also revealed: one main (superior) renal artery and two accessory arteries (middle and inferior), all originating in the abdominal aorta. The renal arteries are disposed symmetrically.
