We describe the features of a duplicated middle cerebral artery identified by computed tomographic angiography that originates from a previously undefined origin, ie, from the petrous portion of the internal carotid artery. Recognition of this anomaly is important in patients with a possible aneurysm, which was not present in our patient.

Complicated foregut duplication cyst presenting as broncho-oesophageal fistula.
BMJ Case Rep

Radiodiagnosis, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, Delhi, India.
Oesophageal duplication cysts are a subtype of foregut cysts, associated with the presence of ectopic gastric mucosa. Gastric acid secreted by this mucosa can lead to complications. We report one such unusual case of complication leading to the formation of broncho-oesophageal fistula in a duplication cyst.

Background: There is a strong link between trauma exposure and serious mental health conditions (SMHCs), such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The majority of research in the field has focused on childhood trauma as a risk factor for developing an SMHC and on samples from high-income countries. There is less research on having an SMHC as a risk factor for exposure to traumatic events, and particularly on populations in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).

Eur J Neurol
January 2025
Folkhalsan Research Center, Helsinki, Finland.
Background: myotilinopathy is a very rare inherited muscle disease that belongs to the group of myofibrillar myopathies. These diseases share a common alteration of the sarcomere organization at the level of the Z disk resulting in pathological protein aggregation, autophagic abnormalities, and ultimately muscle degeneration. Most reported cases are due to dominant missense mutations in the MYOT gene, two of which are largely recurrent.
