The article presents literature data and the authors’ observations of the course of the vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation in a one-day-old newborn infant. This clinical case is of practical interest since the vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation is a rare congenital anomaly of cerebral vessels. The results of arteriovenous malformation treatment in recent years have improved considerably, but many diagnostic and curative aspects in children require the development of new approaches to addressing this problem.

Risk Of Death

Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a congenital malformation of cerebral vessels, associated with an abnormal connection of arteries and veins. The altered locations of the cerebral vascula-ture form a conglomerate that is a direct arteriovenous shunting without intermediate capillaries. The incidence of the disease is 4 cases per 100 thousand population. Clinically, AVM debuts mainly at the age of 20 to 40, and is accompanied by intracranial hemorrhages in 50% to 60% of patients; mortality is 35%. In 27% to 70% of individuals, AVM are manifested by epileptic seizures of various focal origins. In diagnostics, X-ray computed tomography is used to detect hemorrhage in case of a ruptured malformation; magnetic resonance imaging, including angiography, to assess the AVM node, afferent vessels and venous drainage. Currently, the only radical treatment for AVM is surgical removal of the malformation. This is feasible for small and medium-sized AVMs of cerebral vessels (36% to 50% of patients), since removal of large AVMs and AVMs located in functionally important areas, even microsurgically, is associated with a high risk of death and disability. A clinical case of a 30-year-old young patient with an acute onset of the disease characterized by sudden loss of consciousness and an episode of seizures is presented. Based on the data of clinical and instrumental examination, an AVM of the left parietal lobe with parenchymal-ventricular hemorrhage was revealed. On the day of admission to the hospital in Ryazan, a surgical intervention was performed: external ventriculostomy on the left side. After 4 months the second surgical intervention, removal of AVM of the left parietal region using neurophysiological control was carried out at Burdenko Neurosurgical Hospital in Moscow, Russia. The successful surgical approach has completely eliminated the life-threatening pathology. Subsequently, the patient underwent rehabilitation in a neurological hospital at the place of residence. CONCLUSION: The topic of AVM is of great practical interest not only for neurosurgeons, but also for neurologists and radiologists, since timely diagnosis and treatment effectiveness directly depend on the coordinated work of these specialists.

Congenital metacarpal synostosis is a rare congenital anomaly in the hand, especially in our area. There were several reports of surgical techniques for correction deformities. We report this rare condition in our hospital and treatment with the metacarpal osteotomy and double bone blocks technique of grafting.

AbstractAnnular pancreas is a rare congenital anomaly that results from the malrotation of the ventral pancreatic bud. The presentation of annular pancreas varies: it can be asymptomatic or present clinical symptoms of duodenal obstruction that can affect all age groups, from newborns to adults. In the present case report, we describe a complete type of annular pancreas at the level of the second part of the duodenum, which was an incidental finding in a prosected specimen. This anomaly has significant clinical relevance to clinicians and radiologists due to its variable presentation. The embryological, clinical and radiological aspects of this congenital anomaly are discussed in detail in the present article.

Aplasia of the epiglottis is a rare laryngeal anomaly. We present a case of absence of the epiglottis in a child whose clinical course has been followed for nine years. She required a tracheostomy at two years of age for obstructive sleep apnea which resulted in heart failure; she was eventually decannulated at age seven. This case report highlights the clinical challenges faced in the identification and treatment of the sequelae of this defect. Both endoscopic and computed tomography (CT) documentation are provided. Embryological development and a review of the literature are also discussed.

Lung Resections

Abstract Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) is a rare congenital anomaly. Generally, it is seen on the right side and is associated with an atrial septal defect. Herein, we present a case of a 50-year-old male patient with a supracardiac type PAPVC detected during pneumonectomy for a right hilar mass. This is the second case report in the literature presenting surgical treatment of both lung cancer and PAPVC using pneumonectomy. Thoracic surgeons should be aware of this anomaly when they are planning to perform a major lung resection. If PAPVC and lung cancer are in the same lobe, anatomical lung resections including pneumonectomy can be safely performed.

Complete Duplication

Bladder duplication is a rare congenital anomaly which occurs in the sagittal or coronal plane and it can be associated with other anomalies. It has been previously classified as complete duplication of the bladder and urethra or incomplete duplication with two bladders and common urethra. However, complete duplication of bladder with a single urethra has been rarely reported. Herein, we present a patient with a different variation of bladder duplication in the coronal plane with two urethras originating from the main bladder and associated glans diphallia.

Classical Triad

Prune belly syndrome (PBS) is a rare congenital anomaly characterized in males by a triad of anomalous genitourinary tract, deficient development of abdominal wall muscles, and bilateral cryptorchidism. Although similar anomalies have been reported in females, by definition they do not full fill the classical triad. Urorectal septum malformation sequence (URSM) is a lethal condition characterized by presence of ambiguous genitalia, absent perineal openings (urogenital and anal), and lumbosacral abnormalities. In this original case report, the authors discuss the presentation and management of what would be analogous to a Woodhouse category 1 PBS in a female newborn associated with an overlapping presentation of URSM.

Abstract The management of the case of a 9-year-old boy with progressive cognitive impairment due to arteriovenous fistulae at the apex of the inferior sagittal sinus is reported. This represents a unique location for an extraparenchymal deep central arteriovenous malformation. The patient underwent staged ablation of the lesion by surgery. The postoperative course was complicated by expansion of an aneurysmal vein of Galen undergoing thrombosis and hyperperfusion syndrome, but the patient ultimately made a satisfactory recovery.
