A case of ectopic fascioliasis due to migration of an immature Fasciola hepatica fluke is described in a 23 year old woman from western Iran.

Naming difficulties are a well recognised, but difficult to predict, complication of anterior temporal lobe resection (ATLR) for refractory epilepsy. We used MR tractography preoperatively to demonstrate the structural connectivity of language areas in patients undergoing dominant hemisphere ATLR. Greater lateralisation of tracts to the dominant hemisphere was associated with greater decline in...

Nonparametric estimation of a structural cointegrating regression model is studied. As in the standard linear cointegrating regression model, the regressor and the dependent variable are jointly dependent and contemporaneously correlated. In nonparametric estimation problems, joint dependence is known to be a major complication that affects identification, induces bias in conventional kernel es...

Bone fragility has emerged as a new complication of diabetes. Several mechanisms in diabetes may influence bone homeostasis by impairing the action between osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and osteocytes and/or changing the structural properties of the bone tissue. Some of these mechanisms can potentially alter the fate of mesenchymal stem cells, the initial precursor of the osteoblast. In this review...

Microstomia is a complication of facial burns, traumatic injuries, scleroderma, or surgical reconstructions involving the oral aperture. A variety of orthoses for the correction or prevention of microstomia are offered by dentists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, and other specialists. This paper provides an overview of the structural and clinical features of 12 common tissue-born...

Controversy exists regarding the most predictable salvage for failed total ankle replacement. Revision total ankle replacement with soft-tissue release/reconstruction or explantation with tibio-talo-calcaneal arthrodesis with bulk structural allograft are the most commonly performed approaches. Tibio-talo-calcaneal arthrodesis with bulk structural allograft has a high complication rate; however...

Two major issues in formal language learnability are the problem of learning restrictive distributions (sometimes known as the “subset problem”), and the problem of structural ambiguity. While substantial progress has been made in addressing each of these problems in isolation, a complication can arise when a learner is faced with a learning situation that exhibits both problems. It is possible...
