Abstract: Background: Perforation peritonitis is one of the most commonly encountered surgical emergencies by a resident surgeon. Many scoring systems have been used to predict the mortality and the outcome of the patients presenting with secondary peritonitis. The study aims at using APACHE II score preoperatively and correlate with post-operative outcomes in patients with gastrointestinal perforation and to observe its accuracy and limitations in predicting post-operative morbidity and mortality. Material and Methods:This was a prospective cross sectional study which was carried out in the department of surgery at Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand (India)from November 2015 to October 2017 on 52 patients admitted for gastrointestinal perforation. The objective was to evaluate APACHE II score in predicting outcome of patients having gastrointestinal perforation.........

Abstract: Pterygium is a common disease of ocular surface. If it is surgically removed resulting in a bare sclera, the recurrence rate is found to be high. The excision of a double headed pterygium results in a large area of bare sclera. In this study a technique of split conjunctival graft has been described and its surgical outcome has been studied. Material and Methods: This is a hospital based prospective interventional study, conducted over a period of 6 months. 20 patients with double headed pterygium were included in the study. A split conjunctival graft just large enough to cover the bare scleral defect was placed after removal of the double headed pterygium. Follow up as conducted on day 1, 2 weeks,1 month and 3 months. Result: There was recurrence seen in 2 patients on temporal side on the 3rd month follow-up. Rest patients showed no recurrence. Conclusion: Management of double headed pterygium with split conjunctival graft is an efficient technique in preventing recurrence of di headed pterygium.

Abstract: Retention and stability of complete denture becomes more dependent on factors like appropriate position of teeth and the contours of the polished surface of the dentures. Improper tooth placement may lead to an adverse effect on the success of the prosthesis. Therefore, these surfaces should be well contoured such that horizontally directed forces applied by peri-oral musculature acts to seat the denture in the well balanced muscular zone. Neutral zone technique is an alternative technique for the rehabilitation of severely resorbed mandibular ridges as it improves the stability of mandibular denture.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of Raypex 6 electronic apex locator (EAL), with actual root length and with the root length determined by a more commonly used EAL, the ProPex II. An additional objective was to determine the influence of commonly used endodontic irrigants on the accuracy of these electronic apex locators. This study will add knowledge to the existing literature and to the practioners using these EALs during WL determination in their day to day endodontic practice. A total of 100 extracted single rooted teeth were selected for the study. The teeth were randomly divided into 5 groups of 20 teeth each and Electronic working length was determined in the presence of various irrigants such as Dry root canals, Saline, 2% chlorhexidine, 17% EDTA, 2.5% NaOCl as the medium in the root canals. The results showed that the Accuracy.........

Abstract: Clinicians are well aware of the fact that patients with Parkinson's disease may significantly deteriorate following systemic infection or, in its most severe case, may even develop an akinetic crisis. Although this phenomenon is widely observed and has a major impact on the patients' condition, the knowledge about the underlying mechanisms behind is still sparse. Possible explanations encompass changes in the pharmacodynamics of the dopaminergic drugs, altered dopamine metabolism in the brain, alterations in the dopaminergic transmission in the striatum or an enhancement of neurodegeneration due to remote effects of peripheral inflammatory processes or circulating bacterial toxins.

Abstract: The use of intralaminar screws (ILS), laminectomy and laminotomies are increasingly popular among spinal surgeons. A successful lamina surgery will require, sufficient understanding of the morphology and morphometry of the lamina. To our knowledge, there is little in the existing literature reporting on the morphometry of the lumbar spine lamina. 50 dry lumbar vertebrae were selected for the study and the morphometry of the lamina were recorded. The maximum mean height was recorded at L3 on the left and L2 on the right and gradually decreased towards L5.The width of the lamina showed a gradual increase from L1 to L5.The thickness was measured at 3 different levels, extending from upper to lower border of lamina. The mean thickness increased from upper..........

Abstract: Displaced fracture of the acromion without associated shoulder injury is rare. A 34-year-old gentle-man presented with an isolated acromion fracture resulting from a direct trauma to his left shoulder following episode of seizure. Although surgical indications have been reported, the literature regarding surgical ap-proaches and fixation techniques for management of these factures is limited. Open reduction and internal fixa-tion using multiple cc screws was performed and the fracture was healed without complications. The patient achieved good shoulder function at 1 year followup after the surgery. Fixation with cc screws can provide ade-quate stability in this rare type of shoulder fracture...

The aim of this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness of ante partum Doppler velocimetry in detecting fetal distress and correlating it with umbilical artery blood gas analysis at birth and studying the neonatal outcome. Materials and methods: This was a prospective study carried out in the Dept of Obstetrics and Gynecology in collaboration with Dept of Radiology at Gandhi Medical College/Hospital, Secunderabad, Telangana, India. 50 cases were studied between the years Sep 2015 and Oct 2016. The study was carried out on women with singleton pregnancies ≥ 34 weeks gestational age who underwent caesarean section within 5 days of undergoing........

Abstract: Objectives- Malignant neoplasms of hepatobiliary system usually have poor prognosis. In this study we have studied the spectrum of neoplastic hepatobiliary pathologies presented in our institute and retrospectively evaluated important risk factors and imaging features that may help in early diagnosis and treatment of those conditions and improve the quality of life. Methods:- We investigated 36 consecutive patients presenting with hepatobiliary pathologies proven to be of malignant neoplastic etiology between July 2018 and September 2018 after they met the inclusion criteria. Imaging features of each patients were studied ,analysed and classified based on the spectrum of neoplastic hepatobiliary pathologies.........
