Unique Tracheal Fluid MicroRNA Signature Predicts Response to FETO in Patients ...
Pereira-Terra, P; Deprest, JA; Kholdebarin, R; Khoshgoo, N; DeKoninck, P; Boerema-De Munck, AA; Wang, J; Zhu, F; Rottier, RJ; Iwasiow, BMOBJECTIVE AND BACKGROUND:: Our objective was to determine the fetal in vivo microRNA signature in hypoplastic lungs of human fetuses with severe isolated congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and changes in tracheal and amniotic fluid of fetuses undergoing fetoscopic endoluminal tracheal occlusion (FETO) to reverse severe lung hypoplasia due to CDH. METHODS:: We profiled microRNA expression in prenatal human lu...
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia in a patient with tetrasomy 9p
Henriques-Coelho, T; Olivia-Teles, N; Fonseca-Silva, ML; Tibboel, D; Guimarães, H; Correia-Pinto, JTetrasomy of the short arm of chromosome 9 constitutes a rare condition resulting, in a well clinically recognized syndrome. in our case, in addition to the characteristic phenotype at birth, the existence of a hernia-type Bochdalek diaphragmatic defect was found. Cylogenetic analysis revealed a nonmosaic case of an isochromosome of the entire short arm of chromosome 9 with no involvement of the heterochromatic...
