Nasal aplasia, including hemi aplasia of the nose, is a rare congenital anomaly of the nose. Since the ipsilateral side tends to be affected more frequently than the contralateral side of the face in half nose anomalies, only reports concerning the ipsilateral defect are numerous. This report presents an unusual case of hemi aplasia of the nose with complete cleft lip and palate of the contralateral side. A local flap on the nasal dorsum was used for nasal reconstruction, where correction of the elongation of the inner canthal distance and the shape of the inner canthus was performed.

The liver plays a crucial role in regulating lipid metabolism. Our study examined the impact of Exosomes derived from adipose mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs-Exo) on lipid metabolism following liver ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) combined with partial hepatectomy. We developed a miniature swine model for a minimally invasive hemi-hepatectomy combined with liver IRI.

Article Synopsis
  • This study examined the effectiveness of hemi-epiphysiodesis in treating adolescents with idiopathic genu varum and valgum, focusing on the impact of the distal femur and proximal tibia.
  • Results showed that in the varus group, the proximal tibia contributed significantly to the deformity, while in the valgus group, both the distal femur and the proximal tibia played roles, with distal femur being more prominent.
  • The findings highlight the need for tailored surgical planning based on the specific contributions of these bone areas to effectively address each condition.

: To investigate postoperative courses after hemi-percutaneous epiphysiodesis using transphyseal screws (PETS) for genu varum. We especially focused on the degree of skeletal maturation that results in undercorrection. : We identified patients with idiopathic genu varum treated with hemi-PETS at the proximal tibia and followed-up to the completion of skeletal maturation.

We present a rare case report of a patient with a congenital uterine anomaly - uterus didelphys. Who spontaneously became pregnant and completed the pregnancy successfully after peripartum hysterectomy of one uterus. The reason for the peripartum hysterectomy was a life-threatening hemorrhage with hemoperitoneum after cesarean delivery.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on using dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) to analyze diaphragm motion in patients with thoracic insufficiency syndrome (TIS), providing insights into the severity of respiratory disorders without exposing patients to radiation.
  • The paper outlines a three-step approach to segment the left and right hemi-diaphragm from dMRI images, overcoming challenges like low resolution and motion blur by employing advanced deep learning techniques for accurate recognition and delineation.
  • Results showed a mean-Hausdorff distance of approximately 3 mm for diaphragm delineation and a positional error of about 3 mm in identifying the mid-sagittal plane, validated using 100 test images of TIS patients.
