Reproducible and persistent weakness in adult rats after surgical resection of motor cortex: evaluation with limb placement test
Object ::: The purpose of this study was to develop a new rat model for surgical brain injury with motor weakness and to find an adequate behavior test for the application of the model.
We describe a rare case of bilateral intralobar pulmonary sequestration in a newborn with both sequestrations vascularized from a vessel arising from the celiac trunk of the abdominal aorta. The larger sequestration on the right side was diagnosed antenatally, the left side postnatally. At the age of 7 months, the child underwent successful bilateral thoracotomy. In follow-up at the age of more than 1 year, no complications have occurred.
