Abstract:Objective to investigate the treatment probability of laparoscopic partial or subtotal intersphincteric resection for ultra-low rectal cancer. Clinical data of 14 patients with ultra-low rectal cancer who have underwent laparoscopic partial or subtotal intersphincteric resection between January 2013 and February 2014 in gastrointestinal surgery was collected. Clinical application effect of laparoscopic partial or subtotal intersphincteric resection for ultra-low rectal cancer was analyzed.Results: Among all the cases, nobody got peri-operative death, one patient got partial anastomotic crack a week after operation and another patient got 12 days postoperative anastomotic fistula, both of whom cured through conservative treatment. During the 6-54-month follow-up, there was 1 case of local recurrence after 6 months of operation. The anal functions of all patients turned out to be in Kirwan class 1 or 2 and 1 patient got anastomotic stenosis, who required regular expansion treatment.

Abstract: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is a commonly done restrictive bariatric surgical procedure. It is considered to be a relatively safe and technically simple bariatric operation. This report describes the case of a 40 year old morbidly obese female who had complete gastro-esophageal transection during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. She underwent laparotomy with resection of the gastro-esophageal junction and Roux-en-Y esophago-jejunostomy as a single staged corrective procedure. We are reporting the case for its extreme rarity. To our knowledge it is the first case report of such a complication which was managed as a single stage corrective procedure.

Abstract: Axillary artery begins at the outer border of the rib, divides into 3 parts by the pectoralis major muscle. Though anomalies in the origin, course and branching pattern is not frequent with axillary artery, previous research reports shows different types of anomalies in it. We observed an unusual unilateral variation in a 55 year old male cadaver, during routine dissection, in the branching pattern of the axillary artery. The variation reported in this study is in the second part of the axillary artery where the lateral thoracic and subscapular artery arises from the common trunk which arises at the junction between the second and third part of the axillary artery.

Abstract: Hydatid disease is a parasitic infestation by a tapeworm of the genus Echinococcus. Hydatid disease most commonly involves the liver and lungs; the abdominal cavity organs stand next in frequency, the parotid gland is a rare site of this disease. The disease is prevalent in most part of the world, though it is most extensive in the sheep and cattle raising areas. Human echinococcosis is a zoonotic infection caused by the tapeworm of the genus Echinococcus and transmitted by dog and other canine animals. It is a serious problem in tropical areas and is seen in many parts of India. In children lungs are the most common site of infection, whereas in adults liver is infected most frequently. Primary hydatid cyst of the parotid gland is extremely rare, even in the endemic areas and very few cases are reported in parotid gland.
