To propose alternative techniques in performing Roux-Y Hapatico-Jejunostomy (RYHJ) during treatment of biliary tree diseases. We have retrospectively evaluated PUBMED articles  to analyze various modified techniques in RYHJ to research an easy technique to log into biliary tree. Modified RYHJ is a safe, feasible and simple technique to permit an alternative method of anastomosis re-esploration.

A method for producing fat-free, non-saline laden morsellised bone graft for use in revision hip arthroplasty is described. The method is easily performed, requires inexpensive and readily available equipment and, we believe, reduces loss of bone graft compared with alternative techniques.

Despite improvement in diagnostic modalities, confirmation of a histologic diagnosis of cancer of the biliary tree and pancreas remains elusive. Attempts to collect positive cytology specimens from vigorous brushings or washings obtained at endoscopy or percutaneously are often unsuccessful. In our unit, we have increased the yield by obtaining tissue scraped from prostheses that have been previously placed in either the bile duct or the pancreatic duct. The stents are first flushed with saline to collect cytology specimens, after which, they are bisected and scraped, and these contents are prepared in a manner similar to that used to prepare biopsy samples. Twelve of 16 scraped samples, 9 bile duct and 3 pancreas, were positive for adenocarcinoma. The cytology specimens were positive in only 4 of the 12. We recommend this method of sampling from material contained within prostheses as an adjunct when previous brushings, washings, or biopsies are negative.

AbstractManagement of otitis externa and the discharging mastoid cavity accounts for a significant proportion of the ENT out-patient workload. A simple technique of topical application of dermatological preparations is described which is easy and effective.

The excretion of sulfobromophthalein (BSP) is determined by hepatic uptake (storage capacity) and secretion (transport maximum). We calculated the BSP excretion data in six rabbits by measuring the rate of rise of BSP at various infusion rates. The relative storage capacity was determined to be 0.34 +/- 0.13 mg.mg-1.dl-1.kg-1. The transport maximum was calculated to be 0.91 +/- 0.12 mg.min-1.kg-1. These results compare closely with previously reported results using more direct measurements that require anesthesia and surgical cannulation of the biliary tree. Repeated studies were easily performed. Our method provides a reliable and simple technique to study the effects of various conditions or substances on BSP excretion in conscious, unanesthetized rabbits.

Abstract. Twin-engine propeller aircraft accidents occur due to mechanical reasons as well as human error, such as misidentifying a failed engine. This paper proposes a visual indicator as an alternative method to the dead leg–dead engine procedure to identify a failed engine. In total, 50 pilots without a multi-engine rating were randomly assigned to a traditional (dead leg–dead engine) or an alternative (visual indicator) group. Participants performed three takeoffs in a flight simulator with a simulated engine failure after rotation. Participants in the alternative group identified the failed engine faster than the traditional group. A visual indicator may improve pilot accuracy and performance during engine-out emergencies and is recommended as a possible alternative for twin-engine propeller aircraft.
