Abstract: BACKGROUND: All patients who present with clinical features of hepatitis or chronic liver disease or who have elevated serum elevated transaminase levels should be screened for an alcohol use disorder.Typical laboratory findings in ALD include transaminase levels with aspartate aminotransferase greater than alanine aminotransferase as well as increased mean corpuscular volume, gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase, and A:G ratio . AIM: To study the pattern of Hepatic enzymes after abstinence among alcohol dependent patients MATERIALS AND METHODS: : A prospective study on all patients with alcohol dependence attending de addiction centre.A total of 118 patients have been enrolled in the study. Serum biomarkers SGOT {AST} and SGPT (ALT) were analysed at 0,15,30, 60 90 and 180 days RESULTS: Mean age in years of the study population...........

Abstract: Prognosis of patients with peritonitis due to perforation and its complications was studied using Mannheim peritonitis index score.Patients admitted with diagnosis of secondary peritonitis due to hollow viscous perforation were the study subjects. The total number of study subjects was 30 cases with only 1 mortality which was a case of gastric perforation due to malignancy. As the MPI SCORE rises ,there was increase in morbidity and mortality. MPI scoring system was able to predict morbidity and mortality ,thus serving as a useful tool in the analysis of secondary peritonitis.

Abstract: Background: First reports of fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) as a technique for obtaining diagnostic material date back to the 19th century when, at St Bartholomew's Hospital, London, aspiration was undertaken on a large mass in the liver by the surgeons Stanley and Earle. USG is operator dependent and has a limitation in obese patients and those with large amount of bowel gas. Computed tomography (CT) is a reliable modality and provides good definition of lesions and facilitates visualization of the entire extent of pancreatic pathology. Aims: To study the role of fine needle aspiration cytology in diagnosis of hepatobilliary and pancreatic lesions of patients attending tertiary care hospital and their correlation with ultra sonography. Materials and Methods: 50 patients presented with intra-abdominal lumps attending the outpatient department as well as admitted in Medicine, Surgery and...........

Abstract: Hemifacial microsomia is a congenital deformity with deficiency of skeletal, soft tissue on one side of the face. It is a syndrome including hypoplastic mandibular ramus, ears, defects in facial nerve muscles and temporomandibular joint. The soft tissue malformations are present in the external ear. Underdevelopment of middle ear ossicles can be associated leading on to hearing loss with small external auditory meatus . we present a case of 6-year-old girl, who presented with history of loss of hearing with clinical facial asymmetry and congenital deformity of bilateral external ears.

Abstract: Aim: To study pattern of expression of Hormone receptors- ER, PR and HER2 in breast carcinoma and to correlate ER, PR status and HER2/neu expression with traditional prognostic factors. Background: Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in females. As breast carcinoma is a biologically heterogeneous disease, it is important to assess prognosis for each patient before a therapeutic plan is agreed upon .The use of established biomarkers such as estrogen, progesterone receptors and Her2 over expression play significant role in management of patients. Material Methods: Total 54 histologically.........

Abstract: The authors report a case of bilateral lens ectopia in Marfan's disease, in a 16 years old female child, who underwent surgery for the first time at the University Clinics of Lubumbashi, by phacophagy technique associated with a anterior vitrectomy by the pars plana. This observation helps to draw the attention of the community scientist on early surgery in case of bilateral lens ectopia in children to prevent amblyopia.

Title | : | Recurrent Ectopic Pregnancy in the Tubal Remnant after Salpingectomy |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Dr.I.Indu |
: | 10.9790/0853-1709124749 |
Abstract: I present a case of ectopic pregnancy located within the remnant tube following ipsilateral salpingectomy. This particular pathology is rare and yet has significant consequences for the patient, with mortality rates 10–15 times higher than other ectopic pregnancies. It demonstrates that salpingectomy does not exclude ectopic pregnancy on the ipsilateral side. We suggest careful clinical consideration and bring attention to the current surgical technique.

Abstract: Background: Agnikarma is an important parasurgical procedure of Ayurvedic surgeons, which has been used widely in the clinical practice. Agnikarma has emerged as an integral part of the Ayurvedic therapeutics. In Ayurveda, agnikarma is a treatment in which heat is applied to a particular part of body to reduce inflammation there and hence the underlying pain. Based on the degree of burn, Agnikarma is classified as Plusthdagdha, Durdagdha, SamyakDagdha and Atidagdha. The agni karma are more superior than kshara as disease treated with agnikarma never happen again...........

Abstract: Maxillary first molar with two palatal canals is a rare finding as mostly extra canals are found in the mesial canal as MB2. Clinicians should have a good knowledge on the anatomy of root canal system and be alert about the possible existence of any variation in the canal morphology. Careful examination of the radiograph along with careful detection of the pulp chamber will go a long way in the success of endodontic treatment.

Abstract: Since the original description of porokeratosis in 1893 by Mibelli, various other forms of this disease have been described. Among these variants zosteriform porokeratosis is considered to be extremely rare with higher rate of malignant transformation. We are reporting an unusual presentation of zosteriform porokeratosis resembling nevoid psoriasis in a 19 year old boy over the left side of abdomen associated with intense pruritus.

Abstract: Constitutional thrombophilia is a rare disease, with rather complex mechanisms. Several factors are incriminated, including environmental factors but especially genetic factors sometimes involving several anomalies. Faced with the occurrence of thrombotic manifestations at a young age or with a family history of these, the constitutional origin of thrombophilia is strongly suspected and requires the search for the causal genetic anomaly. Through our two observations and a literature review of this pathology, we recall the physiopathological mechanisms, while highlighting the different etiologies of constitutional thrombophilia.
