Abstract: Introduction: Uterine fibroid are the commonest benign tumor found in women of reproductive age group. Mostly asymptomatic but some times it causes symptoms like abnormal menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, pressure symptoms, subfertility. Treatment available for fibroid are medical therapy, UAE, MRI guided focused ultrasonography thermal therapy, myomectomy, hysterectomy. Myomectomy is the preferred option for women who wish to retain their reproductive function, although hysterectomy is the most definitive treatment for symptomatic fibroid, when there is no valid reason for myomectomy. Study Design: Retrospective analytical review, where searches where conducted in Pubmed, Medline, Springer, Cochrane Library to identify relevant literature. Aim and objective: The purpose.....

Abstract: Shared Psychotic Disorder or Induced Delusional Disorder is a mental illness shared by two or more persons usually involving a common delusional system.(1)(2)If it involves two persons it is referred to as Folieadeux and if three persons are involved it is referred to as Folie a trois4. It was first described by Jules Baillarger in 1860 who termed this condition as "folieacommunique‟. (3)Lasegue andFalret coined the term "folieadeux‟ in their classic paper titled "la folieadeux‟ in 1877.(3)(4)Grainick in 1942 in his review, defined it as "the transfer of delusional ideas and/or abnormal behaviour from one person to another or one person to several others, related or unrelated, who have been in close association with the primary affected person".(3)(5) It is relatively rare and.........

Abstract: Class III malocclusion or mandibular prognathism has long been viewed as one of the most severe facial deformities. This malocclusion does not appear to be a sex associated trait, since the sex distribution of the probands in some investigations was approximately equal. Neighter was there a significant difference in the sex of affected parents and sublings of probands. The frequency of mandibular prognathism and Class III malocclusion is relatively small in the general population. This report presents a case of 10.5 years old boy with a hypodivergent class III malocclusion combined with impaction of the maxillary cuspids. Treatment had major impacts on self-esteem, masticatory function, speech and facial esthetics.

Abstract:Background: Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is the gold standard surgical procedure for gall stone disease. Chylous leak following Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is an infrequent complication. There are to our knowledge only 5 reported cases of post laparoscopic cholecystectomy chylous leak and 1 reported case of post open cholecystectomy chylous leakage. Case Report:
We present a 60-year-old woman with a history of Acute calculous cholecystitis 6 weeks prior. She was electively admitted for Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy, and the procedure was done with some difficulty due to adhesions. A closed, non-suction drain was placed intraoperatively draining serosanguinous fluid. Two days postoperatively the draining.....

Abstract: Parry Romberg Syndrome (PRS) is a relatively rare degenerative disorder of unknown etiology. It is characterized by a slow and progressive atrophy of one side of the face and frequently occurs in association with a linear form of localized scleroderma -en coup de sabre. The syndrome will have characteristic skeletal, dental, and soft tissue changes in the affected half of the face with or without neurological signs and symptoms. The exact etiology, and pathophysiology of PRS is not yet identified. Since there is no definitive treatment, management of such cases need prompt multidisciplinary approach, keeping in mind the aesthetics, restoring the masticatory function along with symptomatic treatment of neurological deficit. The present article reports one rare case of 34-year-old female patient with a progressive hemifacial atrophy of left side of the face with en coupe de sabre..

Abstract: Now a days due to faulty life style & environmental change the Incidence of premenstrual syndrome is increasing in adolescent girls.Adolescent phase is a crucial phase in the reproductive age of female. The chance of Premenstrual syndrome is highest during the adolescent phase. The premenstrual syndrome may have some antigenic relation with ABO blood group.Hence the study is selected to establish the association between ABO Blood groups withpremenstrual syndrome. Written consent of fifty girls students ( 1st MBBS) are taken before study. They are supplied with questionnaires about the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome after knowing their blood groups.Dataare analyzed.A,B,O,Group have variable symptom, But AB blood group is having no symptom. Result encouraging and suggest that,O blood group has significant percent headache & abdominal pain .Further study is required to establish antigenicgenetic relation.

Abstract: Pregnancy in women with sickle cell disease is a high-risk condition which is associated with increased maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. We present you a case of sickle cell anemia in pregnancy complicated by eclampsia. Sickle cell anemia in pregnancy is not a common entity encountered. In India, according to hospital-based study, average frequency of sickle cell anemia in pregnancy is around 5%. Based on survey in Gujrat in various ethnic groups, prevalence of sickle cell anemia was 1.2% and sickle cell trait was 15.6%[1]. Specific management program and protocols are essential for better outcome of pregnancy in women with sickle cell disease..

Abstract: Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most frequent histological subtype of thyroid cancer. In a high proportion of patients with PTC at the time of surgery, lymph node metastasis is identified. Tuberculous lymphadenitis is a common cause of cervical lymphadenopathy in Asian countries. (1) A 25-year-old female presented with papillary thyroid carcinoma and was diagnosed to have tuberculous lymphadenitis also. She was subsequently managed for both. The cervical tuberculosis co-existence should be considered in the etiology of an enlarged lymph node for patients with PTC. (2) (3).

Abstract: Dental fluorosis is a disturbance in the development of enamel caused by excessive fluoride on ameloblasts during the mineralization stage. This disturbance can induce subsurface porosities to varying extents depending on the severity of fluorosis. That is why patients with fluorosis consult dentist mainly for aesthetic reasons. Depending on the fluoride levels, the therapeutic options are multiple and vary according to their invasiveness from bleaching, microabrasion, veneering or crowning in the most severe levels with high surface enamel loss.Thus, the dentist should make an accurate diagnosis and choose the most appropriate therapy for the patient. Porcelain veneers can offer an excellent option to improve the smile aesthetics for patient with fluorosis.The purpose of this article is to report a case that shows the interest of porcelain veneers to manage successfully the aesthetics of moderate to severe fluorosed teeth.

Abstract: Low back pain is one of the common complaints among patients encountered in clinical practice. Contained lumbar disc prolapse is one of the primary causes. Invasive approach is best reserved only for those patients who show failure to respond to conservative treatment. Besides minimal invasive surgical lumbar discectomy, different minimally invasive procedures addressing Low Back Pain (LBP) & sciatica syndromes are available for relief of pain & other symptomatic improvements of which Intraforaminal or caudal epidural Injection of steroids is the most commonly used procedure. However, Intraspinal use of long acting steroid preparations has a swarm of adverse effects. Hence, a newer method termed as Ozone Chemodiscolysis or Chemonucleolysis is being applied and has gained much success. The purpose of our study is to compare the clinical effectiveness of Intradiscal (3-4ml) as well as Transforaminal /Intraforaminal (6-8 ml) Oxygen-Ozone mixture at a concentration.....

Abstract: Introduction: Ischemia modified albumin (IMA) is a biomarker the levels of which increase secondary to myocardial and skeletal muscle ischemia, and which is measured by the albumin cobalt binding test. IMA levels can also increase in diseases in which oxidative stress is elevated, including obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), hypercholesterolemia, preeclampsia and polycystic ovary syndrome. Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is the most important cause for hair loss in men. Materials and Methods: A descriptive, comparative study was done with 30 newly diagnosed hyperthyroid patients with elevated T3, T4 values, and decreased.....
