Abstract Skipped spawning, or variation in spawning periodicity, occurs many annual fish species and is an important consideration for population management. We assessed plasma sex steroid concentrations measured gonad size ovarian follicle diameter as metrics to nonlethally identify mass follicular atresia, which may contribute skipped Burbot Lota lota. maintained wild captivity exposed them i...

congenital esophageal atresia needs to be surgically corrected as soon as possible. some will present with post surgical stricture that needs to be dilated by a balloon dilator. this procedure is difficult in premature born due to infant esophageal size and availability of equipments. we herby report the first case in a premature infant with post surgical esophageal stricture of esophageal atre...

Duodenal atresia is the frequent cause of neonatal intestinal obstruction. The association between duodenal atresia, intestinal malrotation, cardiac anomalies and Down syndrome is infrequently reported. We present a prenatally suspected case of duodenal atresia which was associated with malrotation and atrial septal defect in a patient of Down syndrome. Duodenotomy and resection of web was perf...

Bilateral choanal atresia is a congenital anomaly which occurs immediately after birth and requires immediate intervention. Therefore, it is very rare to see a patient who has reached an advanced age. In this article, we report two cases (sisters) who were able to reach advanced ages with bilateral choanal atresia. In the light of these two adult cases, we aimed to review the diagnostic and the...

Atresia of the oesophagus, which has been widely discussed within the last ten years, has been intrathoracic and the site of the atresia has been at or just above the level of the tracheal bifurcation (Haight and Towsley, 1943; Haight, 1948; Franklin, 1949; Gross, 1953; Borrie, 1953). Our case is unusual because the site of the tracheal oesophageal communication is in the neck and the surgical ...

Abstract Esophageal atresia occurs in 1 out of 2500 to 4500 live births; an isolated variant 8% the cases. In this case report and literature review, we present a rare distal esophageal happening just 2 cm above diaphragmatic right leaflet with connecting band between two parts. The location raised possibility direct vascular accident that segment as cause atresia. Post-operative ambu bagging m...

Gastric perforation (GP) in neonates is a rare entity with high mortality. Although the etiology is not completely understood, it mostly occurs in premature neonates on assisted ventilation. Combination of duodenal atresia and gastric perforation is very rare. We present a case duodenal atresia who developed gastric perforation after operetion for duodenal atresia. Analysis of the patient medic...

Three infants who presented with clinical features of neonatal cholestasis and clinically suspected to have biliary atresia were found on imaging studies and surgery to have extrahepatic bile duct atresia in association with choledochal cyst. All patients were treated by bilio-enteric bypass procedure. Post operatively jaundice cleared in only two patients. The prognosis of this association dep...

We report a case of a 2-year-old boy who presented with an empty left scrotum. Clinical examination revealed a left palpable undescended testis. During orchidopexy, segmental atresia of the vas deferens was found, and microsurgical repair was carried out. Segmental vasal atresia is an extremely rare condition and is infrequently diagnosed, especially in the pediatric age group. This is the firs...
