Abstract: Purpose: The primary purpose of treating any TMJ ankylosis is to restore function andsecondarily correction of aesthetics if needed. Methods: TMJ ankylosis treated with distraction on the left side of mandible before ankylotic massrelease and reconstructing with the Interpositional gap with autogenous bilateral coronoid graft formaintaining TMJ function. Results: The result of this report suggest that distraction osteogenesis should be consideredbefore gap arthroplasty as a surgical treatment option with restoring the esthetic form and function.

Abstract: Granular cell tumor is a rare neoplasm of soft tissues which usually appears in tongue and rarely affects female breast. It is probably of schwann cell origin. Granular cell tumor appears mammoraphically, by ultrasonography as well as clinically a breast carcinoma hence it is a mandate diagnostic challenge to differentiate this benign mimicker from malignancy through histopathology and immunohistochemistry. We present a case of 42 years postmenopausal women presented with a lump in right breast measuring 15×13 mm seen in 7 'o' clock position of left breast. It was BIRADS 4a i.e; low probability of malignancy. Biopsy was done and histopathology favoured the diagnosis of Granular cell tumor which was confirmed by Immunohistochemistry.

Abstract: A reported case of death of a 51-year-old male victim from a stab wound to the back of the neck. When the victim was taken to the hospital, a knife still stuck in the back of the neck. According to the testimony of residents who found the victim, the victim was injured in a gold mining barracks, there were no eyewitnesses who saw the incident. In forensic medical examinations, stab wounds were found in the neck and chest and several incised wounds on the back and arms. On the X-ray photograph, a knife appears through the inner chest wall causing pneumothorax. The victim was treated at the intensive care unit, but in the end was not helped because the victim suffered pneumothorax and subcutaneous emphysema which caused the victim to die. Cause of death of the case is penetrating neck injury, the mechanism of death due to asphyxia and bleeding, the manner of death is maybe homicide..

Abstract: Corona viruses have been causing problems to the humanity for a long time. Corona Virus Infectious Disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has developed into a pandemic since it was first identified in Wuhan, China. In this regard, a plenty of research works in traditional medicines are conducted around the world in the search for potential treatments for COVID-19. Siddha system of medicine is one of the Indian traditional medicines have wide potential for usage in such conditions owing to their longstanding use in the community (predominantly in South India), ancient references and clinical efficacy. The majority of people who contract Covid-19 suffer only mild respiratory symptoms like cough, cold, difficulty in breathing, etc. So, it is important to elaborate the disease Iyya Irumal (Irumal – one of the respiratory......

Abstract: Duodenal perforation following blunt abdominal trauma is a rare and often overlooked injury leading to increased mortality and morbidity. We report a case of combined duodenal and jejunal perforation following blunt trauma abdomen and highlight the challenges associated with their management. This case emphasizes the need of a thorough systematic search for any other intarabdominal injuries with kocherization in cases with suspected duodenal injuries. On initial evaluation, CT Abdomen (plain) reported a suspicious defect in D2 segment of duodenum. A thorough bowel run revealed another perforation in the jejunum. Patient was managed with a simple closure of both the perforations with a nasogastric tube decompression, proximal duodenostomy and a distal feeding jejunostomy.

Abstract: When periodontal subgingival bacteria enter the gingival tissues, an inflammatory reaction is triggered, aimed to restrain and to undo the microbiological challenge. The efficiency of this host immune response is paramount for determining the type of evolution and rate of progression of periodontal disease. At this moment, the bacterial challenge may seem to meet a certain counterattack and consequent elimination, but the host immune response is predisposed to the influence of multiple systemic factors that can alter its efficacy and intensity. Thus, the regular immune mechanisms may be inefficient against periodontal pathogenic challenge, and consequently such systemic elements are considered to be risk factors for the onset, evolution and progression of periodontal disease. These systemic risk factors include age, systemic conditions, medication, hormonal changes, smoking, diet and stress. As reflected by this case report, the influence of systemic risk factors can be significant on the periodontal status of a patient, particularly, an elderly one.

Abstract: Introduction:Since its introduction, Glass Ionomer Cement [GIC] has been very popular with various advantages. However, the major disadvantage which limits its use in stress bearing areas is its poor compressive strength. Many studies in literature aim to improve the compressive strength by addition of various Nanoparticles. Hence calcium and hydroxyapatite Nanoparticles are used in the present study. Aim:To evaluate and compare the compressive strength of Glass Ionomer Cement after Incorporation of Calcium Nanoparticles and Hydroxyapatite Nanoparticles. Materials and methods: This Invitro study was conducted at CKS THEJA institute of dental sciences and research, Tirupati, India. Calcium and hydroxyapatite nano particles are used in the study. The calcium nano particles are synthesized and characterization was done using dynamic light scattering machine. A total of 24 samples were divided into 4 groups. Group......

Abstract: Traumatic dental injuries occur most commonly in children and adults and causes be fall, accidents, sports injuries etc. Tooth avulsion comprises around 1-16% of these injuries. It is one of the rare emergencies in dentistry. Many sports-related traumatic dental injuries can be prevented. Avulsion is one of the most dramatic sports related dental injuries. The main method for preventing orofacial injuries in sports is the wearing of mouthguards and headgear,consisting of a helmet and face protector. Yet, a study by the National Institute of Dental Research reported that children do not consistently wear mouthguards and headgear during organized sports. This article reviews meathods for the prevention of traumatic tooth injuries.

Abstract: Background: Pain during child birth is an unpleasant and emotional experience. Adequate analgesia during labour is beneficial to mother and foetus and had positive influence on course of labour.An ideal analgesic should be easy to give ,produce good pain relief ,should not be toxic , impair consciousness of mother ,or delay the labour .Though epidural analgesia has been popular ,because of lack of awareness ,trained staff and monitoring facilities ,its use is limited .The present study was done in Rural Development Trust hospital to compare the labour outcome and maternal satisfaction of parturient with and without epidural analgesia. Materials and Methods : Primigravida with low risk and term pregnancies (37weeks -40weeks ) coming to labour room in Rural development Trust hospital .Anantapur ,during period of 2years from 2016 to 2018 . Using simple randomisation techniques ,divided in to 2groups.....
