Hypnotic focused analgesia, comparable to chemical local anesthesia, has been widely documented in our Laboratory after hypnotic suggestions. This study is aimed at producing hypnotic local anesthesia suggesting that a hand does not belong to the body (body dysmorphism) without any direct suggestions of analgesia. Eight healthy, highly hypnotizable volunteers underwent a cold pressor test keepi...

background: 49, xxxxy syndrome is a rare sex chromosomal disorder, occurring in 1 per 85,000-100,000 male births. the classical phenotype is ambiguous genitalia, facial dysmorphism, mental retardation and a combination of cardiac, skeletal and other malformations. case: a two month-old boy with intrauterine growth restriction (iugr) and low birth weight, facial dysmorphism, clinodactyly in feet...

Objectives: The aim of the present article is to describe the clinical features and genetic conditions of the clinical syndromes/association characterized by facial dysmorphism, mental retardation, and aortic dilation, and compare with those of the syndromes with facial dysmorphism, mental retardation, and aortic stenosis. Methods: International literature of the syndromes characterized by faci...

background robinow syndrome is a rare congenital disorder with phenotypically heterogeneous abnormalities. two modes of inheritances are known for this syndrome namely autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant. case report we describe here an eighteen-month-old child who had mesomelic short stature, abnormal facial features, clinodactyly, micropenis and vertebral changes which were further sup...

BACKGROUND Upper sacral segment dysplasia increases the risk of cortical perforation during iliosacral screw insertion. Dysmorphic sacra have narrow and angled upper osseous corridors. However, there is no validated definition of this anatomic variation. We hypothesized that pelves could be quantitatively grouped by anatomic measurements. METHODS One hundred and four computed tomography (CT) ...
