چکیده
Branchial cleft anomalies are congenital developmental defects that typically present as a soft fluctuant mass or fistulous tract along the anterior border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle. However, branchial anomalies can manifest atypically, presenting diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Error or delay in diagnosis can lead to complications, recurrences, and even life-threatening emergencies. We describe a case of an infected branchial cleft cyst that progressed to a retropharyngeal abscess in a 5-week-old female patient. The clinical, radiographic, and histologic findings of this rare presentation of branchial cleft cyst are discussed. © 2000 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

Chromatic equivalence classes of certain cycles with edges
Let P(G) denote the chromatic polynomial of a graph G. Two graphs G and H are chromatically equivalent, written G∼H , if P(G) = P(H). A graph G is chromatically unique if for any graph H , G∼H implies that G is isomorphic with H . In this paper, we give the necessary and su:cient conditions for a family of generalized polygon trees to be chromatically unique. c © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All ...
متن کاملBargaining power in communication networks
The aim of this paper is to determine how the place of a player in a network of communications ̊ affects her bargaining power with respect to the others. We adapt the Rubinstein-Stahl two-player noncooperative bargaining game of alternating offers to the case of n players connected through a graph. We show that this game has a unique stationary subgame perfect equilibrium outcome from which we d...
