. To review and identify the most accurate ways of diagnosing and treating adventitial cystic disease (ACD) of the venous system. . Cases of ACD were collected through three popular medical databases, including PubMed, Cochrane, OVID, and MEDLINE. After reviewing the literature, the sites of occurrence of 323 cases of adventitial cystic disease were documented, and all cases of arterial ACD were excluded. The clinical features, treatment, and subsequent course of 45 cases of venous ACD are included in this paper. . After reviewing all 45 cases of venous ACD , we have confirmed that the most common vessel affected is the common femoral vein, which reproduces the most common symptom of venous ACD: asymmetric lower extremity swelling worsening over time. . Venous ACD most commonly affects the common femoral vein. When unilateral leg swelling occurs with or without a noticeable mass, ACD should be considered. It is best confirmed with CT venography and the treatment of choice is transluminal cyst evacuation and excision.

Background: Alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins (ACD/MPV) is a fatal congenital lung disorder strongly associated with genomic alterations in the Forkhead box F1 (FOXF1) gene and its regulatory region. However, little is known about how FOXF1 genomic alterations cause ACD/MPV and what molecular mechanisms are affected by these mutations. Therefore, the effect of ACD/MPV patient-specific mutations in the FOXF1 gene on the molecular function of FOXF1 was studied.

Article Synopsis
  • * A newborn, born at 40 weeks, initially appeared healthy but developed severe pulmonary hypertension and respiratory failure shortly after birth, ultimately leading to death within 12 days despite intensive treatment.
  • * Diagnosis was confirmed through surgical lung biopsy and autopsy, which showed consistent histopathological signs; genetic testing revealed a mutation in the FOXF1 gene, also associated with other developmental malformations.

Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Objectives: To assess the impact of Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols on peri-operative course in adult cervical deformity (ACD) corrective surgery.

Methods: Patients ≥18 yrs with complete pre-(BL) and up to 2-year (2Y) radiographic and clinical outcome data were stratified by enrollment in an ERAS protocol that commenced in 2020.

Polymorphic Variants of SCN5A Gene (rs41312433 and rs1805124) Associated with Coronary Artery Affliction in Patients with Severe Arrhythmias.

Genes (Basel)

February 2024

First Department of Internal Medicine-Cardioangiology, St. Anne's University Hospital, Faculty of Medicine, Masaryk University, 60200 Brno, Czech Republic.

Unlabelled: Several mutations in this gene for the α subunit of the cardiac sodium channel have been identified in a heterogeneous subset of cardiac rhythm syndromes, including Brugada syndrome, progressive cardiac conduction defect, sick sinus node syndrome, atrial fibrillation and dilated cardiomyopathy. The aim of our study was to associate some SCN5A polymorphic variants directly with confirmed coronary stenoses in patients with non-LQTS ventricular fibrillation/flutter treated by an implantable cardioverter defibrillator.

Materials And Methods: A group of 32 unrelated individuals, aged 63 ± 12 years, was included in the study.

Background: During hip arthroscopy, managing concomitant cartilage damage and chondrolabral junction breakdown remains an ongoing challenge for orthopaedic surgeons, as previous studies have associated such lesions with inferior postoperative outcomes. Although higher-level studies are needed to fully elucidate the benefits, recent literature has provided supporting preliminary evidence for the utilization of bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) in patients with moderate cartilage damage and full-thickness chondral flaps undergoing acetabular labral repair. Thus, as the incorporation of orthobiologics continues to advance, there is a clinical demand for an efficient and reliable BMAC-harvesting technique that utilizes an anatomical location with a substantial concentration of connective tissue progenitor (CTP) cells, while avoiding donor-site morbidity and minimizing additional operative time.
