Profound knowledge of nerve variations is essential for clinical practice. It is crucial for interpreting the large variability of a patient's clinical presentation and the different mechanisms of nerve injury. Awareness of nerve variations facilitates surgical safety and efficacy. Clinically significant anatomical variations can be classified into two main groups: variability in the course of the nerve and variability of structures surrounding the nerve. In this review article we focus on the most common nerve variants of the upper extremity and their clinical relevance.

A genome-wide association study for recurrent laryngeal neuropathy in the Thoroughbred horse identifies a candidate gene that regulates myelin structure.

UCD School of Agriculture and Food Science, University College Dublin, Dublin, Ireland.
Background: Equine recurrent laryngeal neuropathy (RLN) is an economically important upper respiratory tract (URT) disease with a genetic contribution to risk, but genetic variants independent of height have not been identified for Thoroughbreds. The method of clinical assessment for RLN is critical to accurately phenotype groups for genetic studies.
Objectives: To identify genetic risk loci for RLN in Thoroughbreds in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) following high-resolution phenotyping.

The genomic fusions of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase () gene have been widely recognized as effective therapeutic targets for non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). The Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University has treated 2 NSCLC patients with 2 distinct novel gene fusions. Case 1 was a 55-year-old male with a solid nodule located in the right hilar lobe on enhanced CT scan.

Background: Ulnar mammary syndrome (UMS) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in the T-box transcription factor 3 (TBX3) gene. The phenotype is classically characterized by upper limb defects and apocrine/mammary gland hypoplasia. Endocrine abnormalities include hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH), partial growth hormone deficiency and dysmorphic features, while ectopic pituitary gland and various congenital anomalies have also been described.

The Arc of Bühler (AoB) is a rare anatomical variant in gastrointestinal vasculature where there is an aberrant anastomotic vessel between coeliac and superior mesenteric arteries. We present a rare case where AoB was noted intraoperatively to have haemodynamically significant flow in the context of coeliac artery stenosis, supplementing arterial supply to the hepatic artery proper via the gastroduodenal artery (GDA). An interpositional jump graft between the aorta and the GDA stump was created using the long saphenous vein, and flow was restored.
