Successful treatment by coil embolization for pediatric brachial arteriovenous fistula: A case report.

Arteriovenous fistulae of the upper limbs are rare in the pediatric population. They can be caused by trauma, needle puncture, or other iatrogenic injuries. A 5-year-old boy presented with progressive swelling of the right hand, which was initially misinterpreted as an arteriovenous malformation based on his noninvasive diagnostic work-up.

[Genotyping for CYP2C19 with multiplex PCR point mutation screening technology].

Objective: To establish a multiplex PCR point mutation screening technique for the genotyping of CYP2C19.

Methods: Deoxyinosine multiplex-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers (DMPs) were designed to detect simultaneously CYP2C19*1,*2,*3 alleles in one PCR tube.

Results: The above technique could detect the genotypes of CYP2C19*1, CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*3 successfully.
