Abstract: Pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) are seen in up to 50% of cases of acute pancreatitis. The Revised Atlanta classification categorized these collections on the basis of duration of disease and contents, whether liquid alone or a mixture of fluid and necrotic debris. Management of these different types of collections differs because of the variable quantity of debris; while patients with pseudocysts can be drained by straight-forward stent placement, walled.......

Abstract: Cecal volvulus is a torsion of the cecum around it's own mesentery and can occur in the small percentage (11–25%) of the population, predisposed by developmental failure of peritoneal fixation, allowing the proximal colon to be free and mobile. Second requirement is restriction of the bowel at a fixed point within the abdomen that serves as a fulcrum for rotation, such as an adhesion, abdominal mass, or scarring. Cecal volvulus presents with clinical features of proximal large bowel obstruction. This is usually with colicky abdominal pain, vomiting, and abdominal distension. Signs identified in cecal volvulus include bird beak sign , whirl sign, x-marks-the-spot-sign and split wall sign. In the present study,80 MDCT Abdomen......

Abstract: The knee is the largest joint in our body, making it most susceptible to injury—affecting millions of people each year. Two of the most common knee injuries are to the meniscus, or cartilage, or to the anterior cruciate ligament, or ACL. The meniscus functions as a shock absorber and helps distribute weight between the upper and lower legs. Meanwhile, the ACL is a band of tissue that runs through the middle of your knee and provides structural support for the knee during twisting and intense activities.The symptoms of an ACL tear will include a feeling that the knee has given away or shifted while the foot is planted and the knee is twisted......

Abstract: Background: The posterior approach is the most commonly used approach for mid-shaft and distal humeral fractures. However, fixation via the posterior approach is associated with iatrogenic radial nerve palsy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional outcomes of shaft humerus fracture plating with anterolateral approach. Material and Methods: The present prospective study was conducted in the Department of Orthopaedics, ASRAM ELURU and included 100 cases aged between 35-70 years, who were operated for shaft humerus fractures over last 3........

Abstract: The Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) is considered to be major cause of pain and disability in the adult working population. It is an age associated condition that is caused due to the degeneration of intervertebral discs and narrowing of intervertebral disc spaces. To evaluate DDD different imaging modalities are used, but MRI is the preferred examination since it provides excellent soft tissue contrast, it does not involve ionizing radiation and it is not invasive.

Abstract: Ante partum fetal surveillance is the corner stone of preventive obstetric management aimed at reducing maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity. Ante partum detection of fetus at risk of death or compromise in utero remains the major challenge in modern obstetrics. Specific and accurate methods for detection of fetus at risk can result in early appropriate intervention and hence reduce fetal loss......

Abstract: Dengue Fever / Dengue Haemorrhagic fever is increasingly recognized as one of the world's major emerging infectious tropical diseases having the potential of causing large scale outbreaks Early diagnosis of CLS is essential to start volume replacement and avoid progression to DSS. Thus this study is intended to evaluate the ultrasonographic features of capillary leak syndrome and investigate the role of Doppler study of the portal vein as a predictor for capillary leakage in these patients.

Abstract: Background and Objectives: Siemens Somatom Sensation Cardiac 16 slice Multi-Slice computed tomography (Multi-Slice CT) scan has proven to be an extremely useful tool in the assessment of both inflammatory and mitotic conditions of the pancreas. With its high-quality imaging capabilities, Multi-Slice CT can clearly display parenchymal abnormalities and accurately show the extrapancreatic spread of disease in inflammatory conditions. In chronic pancreatitis, Multi-Slice CT is the modality of choice due to its ability to provide detailed views of calcifications. This feature is essential in making an accurate diagnosis and assessing the severity of the condition.......

Abstract: Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is the decline in cognitive function that occurs after surgery and is characterized by impairment of recent memory, concentration, language, comprehension and social integration.1 Although earlier recognized after cardiac surgery it has been seen to occur after non- cardiac surgeries under general and regional anaesthesia in major as well as minor surgeries.2,3,4,5 Incidence of POCD depends on various factors including age, sex, type and duration of surgery, anaesthetic drugs, systemic disease and certain features of hospital settings like noise, immobilization, isolation, sleep deprivation during hospitalization. POCD may be confused with delirium or excessive sedative state due to residual effect of anaesthetic drugs........

Abstract: Background: The primary objective of orthodontic treatment is to improve facial esthetics through changes in soft tissues. In orthodontics the facial harmony is determined by the morphological relationships and proportions of the nose, lip, and chin. The nose being one of the most striking facial features influence the aesthetic outcome of orthodontic therapy. Size, shape, and position of nose determine the aesthetic appearance of face. The nose plays an important role in every aspect of orthodontic treatment like diagnosis, treatment planning and post treatment prognosis......
