Pectus Excavatum is a congenital developmental deformity of the anterior chest wall, characterized by the dorsal deviation of the caudal sternum and associated costal cartilages or a ventral to dorsal narrowing of the entire thorax in which several ribs and the sternum grow abnormally. It has been reported in dogs, kittens, lambs and calves. Burmese kittens and Brachycephalic dogs are more pred...

Study Design Retrospective cohort study. Objective Lumbosacral transitional vertebrae (LSTV) are a common congenital anomaly, and they can be accurately identified on anteroposterior (AP) radiographs of the lumbosacral spine. This study attempts to determine the prevalence of this congenital anomaly and to increase awareness among all clinicians to reduce the risk of surgical and procedural err...

Situs ambiguous anomaly is a rarely encountered condition in clinical practice that is characterized by the presence of multiple congenital anomalies relevant to intraabdominal organs and the cardiovascular system. While this syndrome is mostly diagnosed as a serious cyanotic cardiac disease in the first year of life, only 5% may survive beyond five years of life, and it can be a diagnostic cha...

Shone's anomaly, a congenital cardiac malformation complex, consists of multiple levels of left heart obstruction. A rare case of an incomplete form of this anomaly discovered incidentally during cardiac catheterization for an unrelated event is described.

Basal encephalocele is a rare craniofacial anomaly. In the present paper we report a 10-year-old boy presented with cleft palate, congenital nystagmus, and hypertelorism. During preoperative evaluation for cleft palate repair, a pulsatile mass was detected in the pharynx. Magnetic resonance imaging showed sphenoethmoidal type of basal encephalocele and agenesis of corpus callosum. Neurosurgical...

Background Oral cleft is the most common orofacial congenital anomaly among live births. This anomaly at birth is one of the main causes of children disability and mortality.  Congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the most common anomalies in oral clefts.  This study aimed to assess the incidence of congenital heart diseases anomalies in newborns with oral clefts. Materials and Methods This ...

BACKGROUND Environmental pollution as a cause of congenital anomalies is sometimes suspected because of clustering of anomalies in areas of higher exposure. This highlights questions around spatial heterogeneity (clustering) in congenital anomaly rates. If spatial variation is endemic, then any one specific cluster is less remarkable, though the presence of uncontrolled geographically clustered...

Abstract   Bicornuate uterus is class IV and septate uterus is class Vin uterine anomaly classification. Bicornuate uterus is almost always treated by laparotomy and metroplasty. But the treatment of choice for septate uterus is hysteroscopic metroplasty. Bicornuate- septate uterus which is described in this paper is a new class of uterine anomaly(between class IV & V). The advantages of hyster...

The rare form of skeletal dysplasia is thanatophoric dysplasia. The meaning for thanatophoric dysplasia is death bearing which is derived from Greek word. It occurs 1in 20,000 to 50,000. It is mainly due to mutations in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3gene. Features of thanatophoric dysplasia are frontal bossing, prominent eyes, narrow thorax, protruded abdomen and bowed legs. The knowle...
