• Unilateral absence of the pulmonary artery (UAPA) is a rare congenital condition. • Patients with UAPA may present initially following recurrent bouts of pneumonia. • Echocardiography remains a useful tool for diagnosis in resource-limited settings.

A Novel Classification System for the Anatomical Variations of the Infraorbital Ethmoidal (Haller) Air Cells.
Ear Nose Throat J

Otolaryngology Department, Faculty of Medicine, Menoufia University, Shebin El-Kom, Egypt.
Infraorbital ethmoidal air cells (IOEAc) are ethmoidal cells that pneumatizes inferior to the orbital floor and lateral to a line parallel to the lamina papyracea. Studies have shown considerable anatomical variation with different extensions in humans. To identify and categorize the anatomical variations of the IOEAc creating a new, comprehensive variation classification system.

Zinner syndrome is an extremely uncommon congenital anomaly of the male urogenital tract. It is attributed to an embryological anomaly that arises in the distal segment of the mesonephric or Wolffian duct. It is the inadequate migration of the ureteric bud that contributes to the failure of differentiation of the metanephric blastema, which ultimately results in ipsilateral renal agenesis and atresia of the ejaculatory duct.

Purpose: The purpose of this case report is to present an anatomical variation of the radial artery observed in anatomical practice and to discuss its clinical significance.
Methods: During the dissection of the right upper limb of a Chinese adult male, a high-position variation of the right radial artery with the absence of the radial recurrent artery was found.
Results: The variant branch of the right radial artery originates from the brachial artery and arises medially in the upper one-third of the arm.
Surface electromyography evaluation for decoding hand motor intent in children with congenital upper limb deficiency.

Children born with congenital upper limb absence exhibit consistent and distinguishable levels of biological control over their affected muscles, assessed through surface electromyography (sEMG). This represents a significant advancement in determining how these children might utilize sEMG-controlled dexterous prostheses. Despite this potential, the efficacy of employing conventional sEMG classification techniques for children born with upper limb absence is uncertain, as these techniques have been optimized for adults with acquired amputations.

Department of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Medical Center, Faculty of Medicine, University of Freiburg, Killianstrasse 5, 79106, Freiburg, Germany.
Objectives: In times of an aging society and considering the escalating health economic costs, the indications for imaging, particularly magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), must be carefully considered and strictly adhered to. This cadaver study aims to examine the influence of cochlear implant (CI) on the assessment of intracranial structures, artifact formation, and size in cranial MRI (cMRI). Furthermore, it seeks to evaluate the potential limitations in the interpretability and diagnostic value of cMRI in CI patients.
