  • In utero idiopathic constriction of the arterial duct is a rare condition with only a handful reported cases. Ductal aneurysms with thrombus formations on the other hand are significantly more common. We report a case of a term infant who presented with right heart failure due to premature ductal closure and postnatal severe respiratory distress. Subsequent diagnostics revealed paresis of left laryngeal nerve and obstruction of the left pulmonary artery secondary to a ductal aneurysm. Consequently, surgical intervention was considered necessary. Post-operatively, right ventricular function and hoarseness resolved slowly.

  • Summary

    The later, typically Hittite form of the cuneiform script is a later development of the Old Babylonian cursive but finds its closest match in the cuneiform variant used in the Syrian kingdom of Yamhad. The mixture of sign shapes is the only one that adequately explains the particular Hittite variant. The heavy diplomatic and military involvement of the Old Kingdom kings Labarna, Hattusili I, and Mursili I provides the historical circumstances, in which the borrowing of the Syrian cuneiform could take place. This chapter ends with a brief introduction to the Hittite cuneiform script and system.
