Grisel’S Syndrome

Objective: “La maladie de Grisel” (Grisel's syndrome) is a spontaneously occurring atlantoaxial subluxation with torticollis. We present a case of atlantoaxial subluxation occurring in a 20-year period of pharyngoplasty surgery. The occurrence of a “spontaneous” atlantoaxial subluxation after oral cavity or pharynx operations is rare. Because some neck pain and stiffness are commonly seen after these kinds of operations, we would like to draw attention to this unusual complication. Symptoms associated with a torticollis after an operation in the oral cavity or pharynx requires additional investigation to exclude this rare complication. A review of the available literature concerning etiology and treatment of la maladie de Grisel is presented.

Cor Triatriatum Dexter

Abstract Background Cor triatriatum dexter is an extremely rare congenital anomaly, and in most cases, without hemodynamic significance. Congenital cytomegalovirus infection is the most common viral infection, the majority of infected infants being asymptomatic and only 5-15% being symptomatic in the neonatal period. Case report We present the case of a female infant, aged 3 months. Clinical examination reveals cranial and facial anomalies. The karyotype was normal. Laboratory tests revealed the presence of anti-CMV antibodies in urine. Imaging studies showed cerebral and renal anomalies. Echocardiographic exam revealed a congenital anatomical feature without hemodynamic significance - cor triatriatum dexter. Conclusions although cytomegalovirus infection is mostly asymptomatic, it can present as a complex pathological association, in which a congenital cardiac anatomical feature without hemodynamic significance, considered by some authors as an anatomical variant, can appear
