The comparative analysis of dimensions of horseradish peroxidase labelled vestibulo-spinal neurons and neutral red stained neurons of undifferentiated areas of the vestibular nuclei have been performed in guinea pig. The undifferentiated areas of the vestibular nuclei consisted of small, medium, large and giant cells. A decrease in the relative numbers of small- and medium-diameter neurons and an increase in the relative numbers of large and giant neurons have been observed along the caudo-rostral axis of the vestibular complex. The vestibulo-spinal populations included neurons of medium, large and giant dimensions. The numerical superiority of large and giant neurons have been found. The even distribution of the vestibulo-spinal neurons of different diameters have been revealed along the longitudinal axis of the brainstem.

Background: Gastric bezoars are indigestible masses that can lead to gastrointestinal obstruction and ulceration. Standard treatments include endoscopic mechanical lithotripsy with a polypectomy snare and Coca-Cola dissolution therapy or a combination of both approaches. However, giant bezoars frequently require multiple treatment sessions and extended hospital stays.

Mechanisms driving the spatial and temporal patterns of species distribution in the Earth's largest habitat, the deep ocean, remain largely enigmatic. The late Miocene to the Pliocene (~23-2.58 Ma) is a period that was marked by significant geological, climatic, and oceanographic changes.

Inland-normal faulting is recognised as an important process following large subduction earthquakes. The lack of data limits the understanding of how normal fault reactivation relates to the subduction earthquake cycle. We characterised the palaeoseismology of the Atacama fault system (AFS) in the Chilean subduction zone.

The recurrence rate of inguinal hernia is 1-10%, most often in the inguinal region, and seldom in different locations. A 72-year-old man with a large soft swelling in the right ventrolateral abdominal region without swelling in the scrotum, operated on right inguinal hernia at pediatric age. Clinical findings revealed a giant right ventrolateral hernia and abdominal CT showed weakness of the abdominal wall with a 25 cm long hernial sac with an apex under the right costal arch and a base at the deep inguinal opening, that was diagnosed as a recurrent inguinal hernia with unusual presentation.

We introduce a 39-year-old man with an exceedingly large adrenal schwannoma who visited our outpatient department with epigastric pain and a palpable mass in the left upper abdomen. Abdominal computed tomography revealed a giant cystic lesion measuring >25 cm. Laparotomy was performed for tumor excision and partial nephrectomy.
