Hearing examinations were performed on this pedigree, and whole-exome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis were performed to screen for suspected pathogenic variants. Then, Sanger sequencing was used to test co-segregation in the family, and transcriptome sequencing was used to investigate the effect of a variant on splicing. <b>Results:</b> The proband has auditory neuropathy combined with symptoms such as development delay, muscle weakness, and seizure. The patient carries two variants in <i>NARS2</i> (NM_024678.6), namely: c.779A>C (p.Glu260Ala) and c.372+3A>G (intronic variant), of which c.779A>C is inherited from the father and c.372+3A>G from the mother. Both variants have not been reported in the literature or included in any databases. Transcriptome sequencing results indicate that the c.372+3A>G variant leads to the skipping of the third exon during transcription. According to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics(ACMG) guidelines, the c.779A>C variant and c.372+3A>G are classified as likely pathogenic. Based on the patient's phenotype and genetic testing results, the proband has been diagnosed with combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 24(COXPD24). <b>Conclusions:</b> The pathogenic variants in the <i>NARS2</i> gene are the underlying cause of the patient's disease.

The nasal septum mucosal flap was separated along the perichondrium and subperiosteum, then passed across the vomer, anterior wall of sphenoid sinus, clivus, and towards the anterior edge of vertical plate of palatine bone. Detailed documentation, including photographs, was made to record the morphology, distribution and drainage location of veins of the nasal septum mucosal flap and its pedicle, along with number of sphenopalatine veins. Furthermore, venous injuries resulting from obtaining a pedicled nasal septal mucosa flap were observed. From March 2023 to March 2024, a retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with nasopharyngeal lesions who underwent surgical repair using a modified pedicled nasal septum mucosal flap for venous system protection in the ENT institute and Department of Otorhinolaryngology at the Eye & ENT Hospital of Fudan University. The postoperative endoscopy was employed to assess the viability of the mucosal flap. <b>Results:</b> The veins of the nasal septum mucosa were primarily located in the posterior region, including the vomerine region, anterior wall of the sphenoid sinus, clivus region, and posterolateral wall of the nasal cavity, in a reticular pattern. Perforating veins draining into these bony structures could be observed, although their quantity and morphology varied. Notably, no prominent sphenopalatine veins were identified in 10 specimens examined, while 3 specimens exhibited sphenopalatine veins: one with a small single branch and two with venous bundles. Preservation of the nasal septal vein was possible when dissection was limited to the anterior edge of the wing of vomer. A wider range of dissection increased the risk of veinous injury. In cases where only vascular pedicles at the sphenopalatine foramen were preserved, three cadaveric head specimens retained intact sphenopalatine veins, while drainage veins were completely destroyed in ten other specimens. Fifteen patients with unilateral lesions (8 with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma and 7 with nasopharyngeal radionecrosis) were included in this study. The postoperative reconstructions were carried out using contralateral pedicled nasal septal mucosal flaps.
