Background: Transoral outlet reduction endoscopy (TORe) and glucagon-like peptide-1 agonist, liraglutide, have individually shown promise in managing weight regain after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. However, combined effects of adjunctive liraglutide to TORe remain unexplored. A cross-over design was utilized to evaluate the efficacy of liraglutide treatment when initiated immediately post-TORe or 1 year post-TORe.

Background: Double outlet right ventricle (DORV) is a challenging congenital cardiac lesion to surgically master. We utilize computed tomography-guided-three-dimensional (3D) modeling/printing and novel in-house software to delineate anatomical relationships providing operative insight into the surgical approach. Our intent is to highlight this and showcase our technology.

Background: Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS) is a multisystem genetic disorder. Although individuals with variants in the SMC1A gene are less commonly seen in CdLS, they exhibit a high incidence of epilepsy and atypical phenotypic variability.
Methods: The clinical data of a patient with non-classic CdLS and epilepsy caused by an SMC1A variant were summarized.

Introduction: 22q11.2 deletion is associated with conotruncal anomalies and immunological aberrations. Given the common embryonic origin of conotruncus and thymus, conotruncal anomalies may be associated with immunological aberrations irrespective of 22q11.

Double outlet right ventricle (DORV) is a rare congenital heart defect where both the aorta and pulmonary artery originate from the right ventricle, often accompanied by additional cardiac anomalies to mitigate circulatory imbalance, though such compensations usually fail. We report a 15-month-old infant with recurrent respiratory infections and poor weight gain, referred for computed tomography angiography. Physical examination showed a small, non-syndromic infant with pallor, tachypnea, irritability, and finger clubbing.
