Failure of development of the primitive lung bud leads to an extremely rare congenital anomaly with a prevalence of 34 per 10 lac live births termed pulmonary aplasia. In half of such cases, associated congenital malformations of the cardiovascular, skeletal, gastrointestinal, or genitourinary systems are present. The Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is defined as the congenital a...

This anomaly has been recently termed müllerian aplasia by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologist. Müllerian aplasia is an uncommon, but not rare, anomaly. The estimated incidence is 1 in 5000 newborn females. Case: A 25 years old divorced female pre...

Unilateral segmental uterine horn aplasia was found in 2 mixed-breed bitches. The 1st bitch was presented with clinical signs of acute abdominal pain, and pyometra was suspected. Pyometra was confirmed surgically with rupture of a blind-ending cranial portion of the anomalous right uterine horn, which had resulted in peritonitis. The 2nd bitch was presented for routine ovariohysterectomy. The r...

The congenital absence of the major salivary glands is a very infrequent disorder, in which several glands are usually involved at the same time. Sometimes this disorder can be associated with other developmental anomalies. The unilateral aplasia of the submandibular gland is an extremely rare finding with only 14 cases reported in the literature. Clinically, this kind of patients may complain ...

As many as 40% of patients with congenital sensorineural hearing loss will have a structural inner ear malformation identified on a temporal bone imaging study (1). Anomalies of the internal auditory canal (IAC) are rare and have been reported to account for only 12% of all congenital temporal bone abnormalities. Internal auditory canal abnormalities may be associated with hypoplasia or aplasia...

Oral rehabilitation of children with extensive aplasia includes a number of dental considerations as well as attention to psychological and physical development. The well-documented results of the use of implants in adults have raised the question of the use of implants and the timing of this procedure in children and adolescents with multiple aplasia. Eight-years' experience of a multidiscipli...

The article presents a clinical case of large fibroids with complete aplasia the uterus and vagina (Mayer Rokitansky Kuster Hauser syndrome), retrospective analysis patients anamnestic data, result surgical treatment.
