Abstract: Introduction- There are still now no standardized bone tumour data available for West Bengal which has a wide geographical variation. Detailed study of correlation between cytology and histopathological findings of bone tumor are very few in literature for this part of India. Aims and objective-So the present study helps us to know the distribution of bone tumors in West Bengal as well as to delineate correlation between cytology and histopathological findings of bone tumor studied in this part of India. Materials and methods-Patients within age range of 5-65 years have been selected for this survey as most of the primary bone tumours are restricted within this age group. Retrospective and Prospective datas were collected during the time period of 2005-2010 as available data for pathology departments bone tumor cytology and histopathology registry khata and population survey in tumor clinic of out patient department from 2011-16. All recorded datas have been analyzed using standard statistical method (Kappa Statistics) ..............

Abstract: Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare the effect of Direct & Indirect pick-up techniques on The Retention & Patients' satisfaction of implant-supported mandibular overdenture with locator attachment.
Materials & methods: For the outcome of this clinical research study, twenty fully edentulous patients received new mandibular and maxillary complete dentures prior to implant placement. Every patient was instructed to use the denture for two months. After two months; each patient received four implants in the mandible by the aid of a computer-guided surgical stent. After ensuring complete osseointegration of the implants; patients were randomly divided into two groups; First group ( of ten patients) had completed the procedures of fabricating Implant-supported overdenture with locator attachment using Direct pick-up technique ( chair-side technique), while Second group ( of ten patients) had completed the...............

Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the treatment and post-treatment dentoskeletal effects induced by the Forsus device (FRD) in a growing patient with Class II malocclusion. A 13year old non-compliant male patient with Class II division1 malocclusion was treated with MBT 022in pre-adjusted edgewise appliance. After initial alignment and levelling, Forsus fixed functional appliance was placed and was continued for 6 months. Results: At the end of the treatment there was significant reduction in overjet, overbite and correction of molar relationship. In sagittal plane, upper molar showed slight retrusive effect, upper incisors showed retroclination, mesialization of lower molars and lower incisor proclination were also seen. In vertical plane lower incisors showed intrusion and upper molars also showed some intrusion. Mandibular plane angle increased, convexity of profile improved, but less skeletal changes were seen..........

Abstract: Nitrobenzene is a pale yellow oily liquid, with an odour of bitter almonds used in the synthesis of solvents like paint removers, manufacturing of lubricating oils and dyes and in shoe manufacturing units for production of synthetic rubber.The toxic effects after ingestion lead to methemoglobinemia. Methemoglobinemia, because of accidental ingestion of nitrobenzene is a life threatening emergency, difficult to diagnose clinically and not routinely suspected. Early aggressive management of severe poisoning, strongly suspected on clinical grounds may change the outcome of a patient. Our case had this rare presentation so we are presenting this case because of its rarity.

Abstract: Sixty five patients were admitted in the department of Neurosurgery Govt. Medical College Srinagar Kashmir for last one and half year, who had facial maxillary injuries associated with craniocerebral trauma. This department has been newly introduced in Govt Medical College Srinagar and has been functional for last four years. Study was carried out to analyse the association of faciomaxillary injuries in brain injury patients due to craniocerebral trauma. After initial resuscitation patients were subjected to computerized Tomographic scanning and 3D scanning of face. Patients with low G.C.S had poor outcome associated faciomaxillary injuries added to morbidity and mortality...........

Abstract: Adolescence in girls has been recognized as a special period in their life cycle that requires specific and special attention. This period is marked with onset of menarche. The girl experiences several problems during adolescence, and menarche is one among them.There is a substantial lacuna in the knowledge about menstruation among adolescent girls. Several research studies have revealed this gap and they showed that there was a low level of awareness about menstruation among the girls when they experienced it. The objective of the study was to assess knowledge, attitude and practices towards menstrual cycle and its problems among school girls............

Abstract: As stated by Federation Dentaire Internationale, "Forensic Odontology" is the branch of dentistry which, in the interest of justice, deals with proper handling & examination of dental evidence & with the proper evaluation & presentation of dental findings. Forensic dentistry is important for human identification, especially when conventional methods cannot be applied, usually due to advanced decomposition, carbonization or fragmentation of the body. However, the method of using teeth has several advantages as it is easy to locate & measure them. Teeth form an excellent material for anthropological, genetic, odontologic & forensic investigations. To investigate the possibility of predicting the height of an individual using selected odontometric parameters as a forensic tool..........

Abstract: Eradication of microbes from root canals and impeding of further reinfection is the basic support of endodontic treatment. This is achieved by overall disinfection and shaping of canals which can then be filled using a three-dimensional filling with a fluid-tight seal. To achieve these goals, the clinician must have integral knowledge of regular anatomy and anatomic variants of root canals. One such variant configuration in mandibular molars is the presence of a third canal in the mesial root called middle-mesial canal. This article describes the endodontic therapy of permanent mandibular first molars having this extra mid-mesial canal.

Abstract: Introduction: Development of pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) worsens prognosis of systemic sclerosis (SSc) and can be either isolated precapillary PAH or secondary to interstitial lung disease (ILD). Early diagnosis is of crucial importance. There is scarcity of data on PAH in patients with SSc in India. Objectives: To determine the prevalence and clinical correlates of PAH in systemic sclerosis using noninvasive cardiopulmonary evaluation and in selected cases by cardiac catheterization. Materials And Methods: Clinical and functional characteristics of 100 patients of systemic sclerosis were studied and they were evaluated by echocardiography to detect pulmonary artery hypertension. Our objective was to study the prevalence and the clinical correlation of PAH in SSc...........

Abstract: Subtalar dislocation is also known as peritalar dislocation, it can be medial, lateral, anterior and posterior displacement. Medial dislocation is more common than a lateral dislocation. Usually, dislocation can be reduced with closed reduction technique but if it is un-reducible or a neglected dislocation, then open reduction is the preferred method of treatment. We present here the technique of open reduction of 12 days old unreduced lateral subtalar dislocation.
