Sixty-two hearts without a patent exit from the left atrium to the ventricular mass have been studied. All had situs solitus and laevocardia. The material consisted of 32 cases with coexistent aortic atresia and 30 cases with patent aortic root. Five hearts with aortic atresia were biventricular with atrioventricular concordance and imperforate left atrioventricular valves, and 27 hearts were u...

A 13-year-old patient with a complaint of worsening lower abdominal pain during the past 4 months was admitted to the emergency department. An abdominopelvic ultrasound scan revealed a distended uterocervical cavity suggestive of hematometrocolpos. Imperforate hymen was observed on examination of the external genitalia. MRI scan revealed an air-fluid level representing pyometrocolpos within a d...

We present a case of a patient with Uterus bicornis bicollis, imperforate hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis. This group of congenital malformations is often asymptomatic until puberty, when it presents as cyclic dysmenorrhoea, leucorrhoea or a pelvic mass. Magnetic resonance imaging is becoming the preferred modality for delineation of uterine malformations. When congenital abnormalitie...

Introduction: Combination of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and anorectal malformation (ARM) is rare. In this report, we describe a combination of imperforate anus and CDH in one of twins who conceived by Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART). Case Report: A female preterm newborn at 27 weeks of gestation was referred to our neonatal intensive care unit due to respiratory distress. She ...

BACKGROUND Presacral masses are unusual growths that have a limited differential diagnosis, typically not including neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Classically, NETs are well-differentiated gastroenteropancreatic tumors of probable benign behavior. These tumors are associated with a typical morphologic pattern and involve the distal colon, rectum, and genitourinary tract; they are considered less...

Background : Terminal myelocystocele is a rare type of skin-covered lumbosacral mass, which often associated with the OEIS complex, combination Omphalocele, cloacal Exstrophy, Imperforate anus, and Spinal cord abnormalities. Due to its rarity, long-term outcome postoperative course are poorly understood.
