Abstract:
The association between congenital vascular malformations and altered bone growth, the so-called vascular bone syndrome, is well documented. Various eponymous syndromes each with their individual traits, such as Klippel–Trenaunay, Parkes–Weber and Servelle–Martorell syndrome have been described, along with variations. We report on a previously undescribed case of congenital vascular malformation associated with multiple skeletal abnormalities affecting the skull, vertebrae and right upper limb, and discuss the literature.

ABSTRACT Objective: The epidemiological profile of congenital anomalies of the upper limbs (CAULs) is of major relevance to monitoring and planning. A study of this profile may reveal if there is prevalence of some specific type of malformation in comparison to a more comprehensive epidemiological sample. The Latin American Collaborative Study of Congenital Malformations (ECLAMC) has an extensive database, providing an excellent source of comparison. This study aims to evaluate the epidemiological profile of CAULs at the hand surgery department of the Hospital Federal da Lagoa (HFL) in Brazil,

Servelle Martorelle Syndrome is a congenital vascular malformation associated with soft tissue hypertrophy and bony hypoplasia. This rarely involves whole of an extremity, with involvement of part of limbs reported in literature.

The entire left upper limb length was lesser than the right upper limb. Hence this is a very rare case of Servelle Martorelle

AbstractThe group of congenital limb overgrowth syndromes associated with vascular malformations include various disorders, often with variable clinical expression. Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome is the most common syndrome in this group, compared to other similar disorders such as Proteus, Parkes-Weber, Sturge-Weber, Cobb, Maffucii and CLOVES syndromes. We present a case of a 55-year-old male who presented with swelling, pain, heaviness, numbness and increased local temperature, involving the right upper extremity and the right side of the chest wall and associated with a livid erythema.

Abstract:
Data from the Polish Registry of Congenital Malformations (PRCM) suggest that the prevalence of limb reduction defects (LRDs) in some Polish regions is significantly higher in comparison to that reported in the European Surveillance of Congenital Anomalies (EUROCAT) registry, but specific risk factors are still unknown. The objectives of this study were two-fold: to detect risk factors linked to isolated LRDs among Polish natives and to search for geospatial clusters of isolated LRDs to identify high-risk areas across the country. Among the 2,939,001 births accounted for in the PRCM, we determ

Background: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a condition seen commonly in clinical practice; high-flow arteriovenous malformations (AVM) can be a rare but important cause. Case Report: We discuss a case of a patient who had developed left CTS in the fifth decade of life as the result of a progressively enlarging congenital peripheral AVM affecting his left upper limb. This case illustrates the clinical challenges encountered in the surgical and interventional management of this complex issue.

BACKGROUND: Congenital malformations of the spine and spinal cord can be combined with various clinical manifestations of the spine, spinal cord, and lower extremities. Children with these neurological disorders often lack sensitivity and motor activity of their lower extremities and, in most cases, have bladder infections and incontinence (lack of bladder and bowel control).

Background/Aims: Congenital heart defects (CHD) can occur with upper limbs deformities. Holt-Oram syndrome is the main type of heart-hand syndromes, characterized by upper limb radial ray malformations, CHD and/or conduction abnormalities. Mutations of the TBX5 gene, most of which are found within the T-box domain, are one cause of the disease. We aimed to find the cause of the disease in a family with two children exhibiting symptoms of Holt-Oram syndrome while the parents tend to be normal.

Holt-Oram syndrome is a rare inherited disorder involving the hands, arms, and the heart. The defects involve carpal bones of the wrist and the thumb and the associated cardiac anomalies like atrial or ventricular septal defects. Congenital cardiac and upper-limb malformations frequently occur together and are classified as heart-hand syndromes. The most common amongst the heart-hand disorders is the Holt-Oram syndrome, which is characterized by septal defects of the heart and preaxial radial ray abnormalities. Its incidence is one in 100,000 live births. Approximately three out of four patien

Abstract Background: The SALL4 gene encodes sal-like protein 4, a transcription factor with eight zinc finger motifs that is essential for the development of the epiblast and primitive endoderm. In association with TBX5 (T-box), SALL4 is responsible for the establishment and morphogenesis of the thumb. Pathogenic SALL4 variants have been reported to cause Duane-radial ray syndrome (also known as Okihiro syndrome), acro-renal-ocular syndrome and Holt-Oram syndrome. Hereby, we report on a family with radial hypoplasia and kidney dystopia in members of 4 consecutive generations, and short stature

A somatic mutation in the early development of cells in SWS patients causes the formation of a congenital capillary vascular malformation.

Approximately 40% of cases are associated with other congenital defects, particularly malformations of the upper limb or craniofacial region. Mutations in the gene coding for the ribosomal protein RPS19 have been identified in 25% of patients with DBA, with resulting impairment of 18S rRNA processing and 40S ribosomal subunit formation. Moreover, mutations in other ribosomal protein coding genes account for about 25% of other DBA cases. Recently, the analysis of mice from which the gene coding for the

SUMMARY INTRODUCTION: Coarctation of the aorta is a congenital heart disease characterized by a narrowing that occurs in the aortic artery. This constriction can occur anywhere along its entire length; however, it is more common between the origin of the left subclavian artery and the ductus arteriosus. Its incidence corresponds to 3 cases per 10,000 births. Thus, it is a common cardiopathy, but with high mortality and morbidity rates, which are related to a failure in the early diagnosis.

Although anemia is the most prominent feature of DBA, the disease is also characterized by growth retardation and congenital malformations, in particular craniofacial, upper limb, heart and urinary system defects, that are present in ∼30–50% of patients.
