Syndrome de Prune Belly: un cas particulier

Sur un Cas Particulier de la Conjecture de Cerny

Let A be a finite automaton. We are concerned with the minimal length of the words that send all states on a unique state (synchronizing words). J. Černý has conjectured that, if there exists a synchronizing word in A, then there exists such a word with length 6 (n − 1) where n is the number of states of A. As a generalization, we conjecture that, if there exists a word of rank 6 k in A, there ...

Prune Belly Syndrome

Prune belly syndrome is a rare congenital disorder of the urinary system, characterized by a triad of abnormalities. The aetiology is not known. Many infants are either stillborn or die within the first few weeks of life from severe lung or kidney problems, or a combination of congenital anomalies.

Prune Belly Syndrome with Situs Inversus Abdominus

A full term male baby born to a 23-year-old primigravida did not develop spontaneous respiration after birth. His heart rate was <40/min and required bag and tube ventilation; and shifted to NICU for further management. Antenatal ultrasound at 36 weeks showed single live fetus with grossly distended bladder with dilated proximal urethra, bilateral hydroureters causing significant intra-abdomina...

VACTERL association with Prune-Belly syndrome.

We report a term, small for gestational age neonate having full spectrum of VACTERL association. In addition, the neonate also had triad of signs and symptoms associated with prune belly syndrome. The concurrence of these two syndromes could lie in their common etiology of defect in mesodermal differentiation. Such a combination is extremely rare and is generally incompatible with life.
