Abstract: Keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans (KFSD) is a rare disorder affecting the hair follicles characterized by progressive cicatricial alopecia of the scalp and eyebrows, with usually X-linked recessive mode of transmission hence predominantly affecting Males.[1] Monilethrix is a rare structural Hair shaft disorder with autosomal dominant mode of transmission, characterized by short, fragile, brittle hair that breaks spontaneously resulting in patchy dystrophic alopecia.[2]

Abstract: Introduction: Fine needle aspiration cytology( FNAC), is an initial investigation in evaluation of thyroid lesions. Due to lack of standardized system for reporting thyroid cytology in 2007, "The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology(TBSRTC)" was introduced. It is a six tier system. Aim: To classify thyroid FNACs based on "The Bethesda system for reporting thyroid cytopathology." Objectives : To analyse thyroid cytology through TBSRTC and analyse the distribution of lesions in various categories. Materials and methods : The study is a cross sectional study done in Department of Pathology, Coimbatore Medical College from July 2015 to June 2016...........

Abstract: Castleman's disease is a rare clinico-patholological entity characterized by non-neoplastic lymph node hypertrophy. Its incidence and etiology is not known,but it has been found in association with Kaposi's Sarcoma.We report a case of 34 years old female patient with history of solitary neck swelling (left Neck) for 10 months without any other presenting symptoms in the nose and throat.The neck node was present at level 2b,measuring 3x2cm,firm,painless,non-tender and mobile beneath the left Sternocleidomastoid muscle. Lymph node histopathological biopsy revealed Castleman's disease.USG Whole abdomen,Chest X Ray, CECT Thorax were normal.This case report highlights the clinical,histological aspects of Castleman's disease

Abstract: Almost all patients receive a fine cut computed tomography (CT) scan to evaluate the skeletal trauma. Sometimes aO.P.G.x-rayis obtained if a jaw fracture is suspected. With the help of advanced CT software algorithm the multiplanar reformation and three dimensional volume rendering is quick and cost effective. Our study aims to evaluate the efficacy of detection of facial fracture by 3D reconstruction over 2D images in patients with facial bone injuries. This prospective observational study was conducted in patients who underwent CT evaluation of face when they presented with facial trauma to casualty. The advantages of 3D images in the assessment of facial trauma could be described. 3D images were better in the identification of Le Fort fracture lines and have a limited role in fractures involving the naso orbitoethmoid region and also when there is minimal fracture displacement........

Abstract: This case report describes the diagnosis and treatment of a 15 year old skeletal Class I male patient. The patient was treated by using 2 step retraction procedure where initial retraction of canine was done using closed coil Ni-Ti spring and later on the maxillary incisors were retracted with the help of T-loop. Along with retraction, deep bite in the patient was corrected using and placing mini-implants in the maxillary anterior region. The total time duration of the treatment was 30 months where simultaneous intrusion and retraction was performed using T-loop and mini-implants..

Abstract: Aim and Objective: evaluation of UTI ,causative agents and antimicrobial sensitivity at KRH ,Gwalior. Material and Method: A prospective study from 2017 to 2018 was done at KRH where samples of suspected patients were sent to microbiology department >100,000 CFU /ml was considered significant bacteruria . Results: Predominantly patients were 55-70 years showing susceptibility of geriatric to UTI, their likelihood due to decrease estrogen and age related changes. The chief isolated organism was E.coli (80%) followed by Kleibsella pneumonea . Conclusion: Organism isolation and antibiotic sensitivity should be investigated from time to time to evaluate their changing patterns.Etiology and predisposing factors should also be taken into account to inhibit irritational drug usage and deduce the most appropriate antibiotic therapy.

Abstract: Aim and Objective: To study the Urinary Bladder injuries during gynaecological surgeries. Material and Method: This was a study retrospective at GRMC Gwalior a analysis from Jan2017to Dec 2018were carried out for VH,TAH,NDVH,Radicalhysterectomy,myomectomy,vault prolapse, laparotomy (for cystectomy,salpingectomy,ectopic pregnancy),LSCS,and caesarean hysterectomy. As minor surgeries like MTP, encirclage, d&c carry minimal risk therefore they were excluded. Results: As previously noted bladder injuries have higher prevalence than ureteric injuries. Conclusion: Bladder injuries remain commoner than ureteric injuries. Careful counselling and consent should be made with good knowledge of genitourinary tract. Caution while Dissection, asepsis adherence, early detection of injuries to improve postoperative care.

Abstract: Candida albicans is an opportunistic pathogen which causes candidiasis and candidemia. Other non-albicans Candida species also cause these. All Non-albicans except C.dubliniensis can be differentiated by Germ tube test. C.dubliniensis shares many phenotypic similarities with C. albicans including Germ tube test leading to misidentification. Several identification techniques have been developed for differentiation.The present study was undertaken to evaluate the use of in house hypertonic xylose agar medium to differentiate between C. albicans and C. dubliniensis in a clinical setting. Around 124 samples received in the dept. of microbiology showed Candida isolation. Candida isolates were grown on Sabourauds Dextrose agar, to which Germ tube testing was carried out. Positive...........

Abstract: Le cardiotocographe (CTG), le Doppler foetal et le foetoscope de Pinard sont tous trois des moyens de surveillance du foetus au cours du travail. Dans notre milieu, aucune étude n'a comparé leur efficacité dans la surveillance du foetus durant le travail. Cette étude s'est proposé de comparer la morbimortalité périnatale entre deux maternité dont l'une utilise le CTG couplé au Doppler et l'autre le foetoscope de Pinard.Il s'agit d'une étude descriptive transversale comparative dont les données ont été récoltées de façon rétrospective de 2015 à Juillet 2018. Les paramètres de comparaison étaient la mortinatalité, la dépression néonatale et la mortalité périnatale. Les logiciels Epi info et Excel ont facilité l'analyse des données. Le seuil de signification a été fixé à 0.05. Il n'y avait pas de différence...........

Abstract: Acute viral hepatitis is a systemic infection affecting the liver predominantly .It continues to be a common medical problem in both developing and developed countries. This disorder is caused by atleast five pathognomic hepatotropic viruses that is hepatitis A, B, C, D, E (HAV, HBV, HCV, HDV and HEV ) respectively. The clinical spectrum of acute viral hepatitis ranges from entirely subclinical and inapparent infection to rapidly progressing and fulminant hepatic failure The study was conducted -To determine the etiological profile of acute viral hepatitis in patients, attending the Pediatric Deptt. of GMCH, Guwahati and to study the different clinical manifestations.........
