Abstract: Background: Female genital tract anomalies have an important impact on a person's sexual activity and fertility. Microperforate (pinhole) hymen is one among them. Microperforate hymen can lead to primary amenorrhea, acute or chronic pelvic pain, abnormal vaginal bleeding, infertility, urinary tract infections and foul-smelling vaginal discharge. The tiny opening can be a passage for menstrual bleeding and sperms. Hence these women may have delayed diagnosis. Case Report: A 22yr old, married for 2 years presented to the clinic with anxiousness to conceive. History of difficulty in coitus and dyspareunia. History regular menstrual cycles with decreased menstrual flow. On.....

Abstract: This study is regarding to determine postoperative pain relief after laparoscopic Cholecystectomy by using bupivacaine soaked surgicel application over gallbladder bed (Group-A) with intraperitoneal bupivacaine instillation (Group-B) with a control group (Group-C). Our study aims to compare post-operative pain relief after application of bupivacaine soaked surgicel over gallbladder bed with intraperitoneal instillation of bupivacaine with control group in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. We encountered75 cases of calculous cholecystitis operated by laparoscopic Cholecystectomy, 25 cases in each Group A, B & C, during a period of 2 years, between September 2017 to august 2019, at P.D.U. medical college. Visceral pain at right hypochondrium& Epigastrium was assessed on Visual Analogue scale (0-10) at 1,4,8,12,18,24,48 & 72 hours post-operatively.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Access into the abdomen is the one challenge of laparoscopy (Gr: Laparo-abdomen, scopein-to examine) that is particular to the insertion of surgical instruments through small incisions. Abdominal access and the creation of a pneumoperitoneum in the initial stage of any laparoscopic surgery carry a significant risk of bowel and vascular injuries. METHODS: This study included 85 patients who underwent laparoscopic procedure in our hospital over a period of two years. Intraperitoneal access was through three different methods- closed method (veress needle), open(Hasson's) method and direct trocar entry method........

Abstract: A 60-year-old man presented with a slow-growing, painless, subcutaneous lesion in the right inguinal region. The mass was 20.0 cm × 10.5 cm × 5.0 cm in size, well circumscribed, mobile, and rubbery.Microscopically, the resected mass was mainly composed by a proliferation of small spindle or stellate cells, variablyadmixed with mature adipose tissue, embedded within an abundant myxoid and collagenized stroma.Immunohistochemically, the spindle and stellate cells were strongly positive for vimentin, CD34, and bcl-2antibodies but not for smooth muscle actin and desmin. The tumor was diagnosed as fibromyxomabased on the typical findings of histology and immunohistochemistry. This is probably the first case to be reported in literature for a fibromyxoma in inguinal region..

Abstract: Introduction: Knowledge of gestational age is important to the obstetrician because it affects clinical management in many ways. First, this allows obstetrician to anticipate spontaneous delivery and plan delivery for the optimal perinatal outcome. Second, it helps in scheduling invasive procedures and genetic tests. Third, it helps in evaluating fetal growth because normal ranges of parameters change with advancing age. Virtually all important clinical decisions require knowledge of the menstrual age. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted for a period of one and half year from March, 2018 to July, 2019 at the department of obstetrics and gynecology......

Abstract: Meningitis is a rare but well-recognized complication of drug therapy. The clinical presentation of drug-induced meningitis (DIAM) is distinct. Symptoms typically include fever, neck stiffness, headache, confusion, nausea and vomiting. The major categories of causative agents are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antimicrobials and also intravenous immunoglobulins, monoclonal antibodies and vaccines. These drugs most commonly implicated as causes of meningitis act more likely through an immunological mechanisms. However, the pathogenetic mechanism of DIAM is still unknown. The diagnosis of drug-induced meningitis is difficult and infectious etiologies must be excluded. In some cases the diagnosis has been confirmed by rechallenging the patient with the suspected agent. In this case, informed written consent is necessary and rechallenge must be medically supervised both to document the response and to offer medical care and advice, if required. The outcome of DIAM is generally good, usually without long term sequelae.

Abstract: Background: This study was done to evaluate 5 mg vs 10 mg of nalbuphine added to 0.5% Ropivacaine, with regard to the duration of analgesia. Our study also aims to assess the onset and duration of sensorimotor blockade, hemodynamic effects, sedation, and adverse effects.Methods:Sixty adult patients undergoing forearm surgeries under supraclavicular brachial plexus block ( using peripheral nerve stimulator) were randomly allocated into two groups.

Abstract: Introduction: The lower gastrointestinal bleeding (LGIB) is an important medical emergency which has significant morbidity and mortality. LGIB can be caused by a number of both neoplastic and non neoplastic lesions. For accurate diagnosis of various colorectal lesions, colonoscopy is the gold standard, simple, convenient and cost effective procedure. The present study was aimed to scrutinize the clinical profile and colonoscopic findings in patients presented with lower gastrointestinal bleeding in a tertiary care centre in western Nepal. Methods: This is a hospital based prospective observational study conducted from 20th March 2019 to 19th September 2019 at Universal College of Medical Sciences- Teaching Hospital, Bhairahawa, Nepal. All the patients presented with.....

Abstract: Usually myringoplasty is done by post aural or end aural approach using operating microscope, after advent of rigid endoscopes surgeons are using them for ear surgeries like tympanoplasty, ossiculoplasty, myringotomy and grommet insertion [1, 2].Rigid endoscopes were first developed by Hopkins, using rod shaped glass lenses in the relay system [3, 4]. The rod lens provides a wider viewing angle and exceptional resolution and brightness [5].Mer and colleagues introduced the middle ear endoscopy in 1967. Since then endoscopes are increasingly used for various middle ear surgeries [3].Endoscopes have lot of advantages over microscope. Unlike microscope, endoscope is easily transportable and hence ideal for use in ear surgery camps[6].Variations of external auditory canal like stenosis, tortuosity,bony overhangs etc. hamper the view of tympanicmembrane when visualized through microscope........

Abstract: Background: Blood transfusion is not without risks. Among all risks, transmission of infections is a very serious issue. Hence to increase blood safety we need to monitor the trend of transfusion transmissible infections (TTI) in donated blood units. Aims and objective: To determine the prevalence and trend of TTI. Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted for a period of 7 years, from 2012 to 2018. Donors were categorized as voluntary blood donors (VBD) and replacement blood donors (RBD). Each donated blood unit was tested for HIV, HBV, HCV, syphilis and malaria. Results: Out of 83,329 donors, 75997(91.2%) were males......
