The objective: study the features of gynecological, physical history, diagnosis and treatment of patients with benign epithelial ovarian tumors (BeEOT) and borderline epithelial ovarian tumors (BEOT), determining the frequency of recurrence of ovarian tumors in the postoperative period. Patients and methods. According to a retrospective analysis of case histories of 112 women with epithelial ovarian tumors (EOT) underwent conservative or radical surgical treatment in a hospital, two groups were formed: I group – patients with benign epithelial ovarian tumors (BeEOT), which amounted to 85 (75.9%) women, and group II – patients with borderline epithelial ovarian tumors (BEOT), which amounted to 27 (24.1%) women. It was found that the main complaints of patients with EOT were pain (49.1%), abdominal distension (17%), and abnormal uterine bleeding (12.5%). The highest incidence of BeEOT (31.8%) observed in the age group of 41–50 years, while the peak incidence of BEOT (44.4%) corresponds to the age group of 51–60 years. Results. In BEOT endocrine pathology occurs significantly more frequently (p<0.05) than in BeEOT – 25.9% vs. 9.4%, respectively. Pathology of pancreatic-hepatobiliary system occurs significantly more frequently (p<0.05) in patients with BEOT compared with BeEOT – 81.5% versus 57.6%, respectively. Venous disorders (varicose veins of the pelvic organs, lower limbs, haemorrhoids) observed in BEOT significantly more frequently (p<0.05) than in BeEOT – 18.5% vs. 5.9%, respectively. EOT most often diagnosed in the period from 1 to 6 months after the first clinical manifestations with an average uptake of medical care 4.6±0.57 months. In assessing of peritoneal exudate cytogram the mesothelium cells are significantly more common for BeEOT (p<0.01) than BEOT – 79.4% versus 40.9%, respectively. Cervicitis is more likely significantly to occur in BeEOT (p<0.01) than in BEOT – 29.4% vs. 7.4%, respectively. The most common histological type among the benign tumors of the ovaries are endometriomas, which occurred in 48.2% of all BeEOT cases, and among the borderline tumors – serous tumors, which accounted for 59.3% of all BEOTs. Conclusion. The use of organ sparing surgery in EOT increases the risk of recurrence, especially in the case of endometrial histology or borderline variant of tumor. Key words: benign and borderline epithelial ovarian tumors, clinical-anamnestic analysis, diagnosis, treatment.

Background: Ovarian tumors account for 30% of all cancers of female genital tract which represents the sixth most common cancer and fourth leading cause of death in women. The present study was done with an objective to determine the frequency and distribution of various ovarian tumors and to study their clinical and histopathological presentations.Methods: It is a retrospective observational study of patients with ovarian tumors subjected to surgery in the department of obstetrics and gynecology, SDM College of Medical Sciences and Hospital from January 2005 to December 2015.Results: There were 642 cases comprising of 77.7% of neoplastic lesions and 22.3% of non-neoplastic lesions. Majority of the ovarian tumors (83%) were seen in the age group of 20 to 50 years. Mean age for ovarian tumors was 38 years.  Among the neoplastic lesions 84% were benign, 14.2% were malignant and 1.8% were borderline tumors. Surface epithelial tumors were the commonest tumors (60.9%) followed by germ cell tumors (12.8%).  Serous cystadenoma was the most common benign tumors (47.1%) followed by mucinous cystadenoma (18.4%). Among the ovarian malignant tumors; serous cystadenocarcinoma was the most common (4.5%) followed by mucinous cystadenocarcinoma (2.6%). Chocolate cysts were the most common among the non-neoplastic lesions (36.4%).Conclusions: Ovarian neoplastic lesions were more common than non-neoplastic lesions. Benign ovarian tumors were common in reproductive age group.  The mean age of occurrence for ovarian tumor was 38 years. The most common neoplasm was surface epithelial tumors, of which serous tumors was the commonest. Chocolate cysts were the most frequently encountered histopathological finding among the non-neoplastic lesions.

The lower limbs’ venous system has the pressure of posture, and blood has to be pushed against gravity into the heart cavity. This issue is generally approached either by a cautious approach or by surgical interference, all of which are constrained. Attempts to study different clinical manifestations of varicose veins are being made in the present study. The overall number of 50 varicose vein patients was analysed and the study results were reported. Varicosity veins of the lower limb is a fairly normal pathological entity. In the 20-50 age range, the condition is more common. The main modality of the procedure is surgery. The most common technique performed is Saphenofemoral flush ligation with stripping.

Background: Ovarian tumors are common forms of neoplasia in women. Among cancers of the female genital tract, it ranks only below carcinoma of the cervix and the endometrium, but is responsible for approximately 50% of the deaths. They arise from different cell lineages and hence constitute a wide variety of neoplastic entities with diverse morphological and clinical manifestations. Materials and Methods: A descriptive study of 363 cases of ovarian tumors was carried out during a three year period from January 2011 to December 2013. Results: Of the 363 ovarian tumors, 293 (80.72%) cases were benign, 57 (15.70%) were malignant and 13 (3.58%) were borderline. Germ cell tumour was the most common class of tumour and seen in 187 (51.52%) cases, followed by surface epithelial in 158 (43.53%) cases. The age distribution of the patients ranged from 10-82 years with a median age of 33 years. Benign tumors were more common than malignant ones in all age groups. Conclusion: Most of the ovarian tumors in this study were of germ cell origin. The incidence of malignant germ cell tumors was also significantly higher than in other studies. Mature cystic teratoma was the most common benign tumour while serous carcinoma was the most common malignancy. The incidence of malignant germ cell tumors was higher compared to other studies.

Background: Snake bite is a major medical and public health problem in tropical agricultural world. A high incidence of snake bite envenomation has been reported from rural India, many times the incidence is underestimated due to lack of epidemiological information. The present study analyses the age, mode of presentation, seasonal variation, clinical profile, management and outcome of patients with snake bite in below 18 years of age group of a metropolitan city, India.Methods: This study is a retrospective single centre study conducted in government referral hospital in Bangalore from January 2016 to January 2020 including 53 patients, who presented with a history of snake bite. Clinical data about age, sex, clinical manifestations, complications, management and outcome were analysed.Results: In our study including of 53 patients, maximum snake bites incidents were noted in age group of 6-10 years (47.16%) of the rural population with male predominance (83.01%). Most of the bites occurred during monsoon season (54.71%) in evening time. Bite marks were observed mainly on lower limbs in 71.69% of patients. Tourniquet was the commonly used first aid care (67.92%). Most of the bites were vasculotoxic in (75.47%) followed by neuroparalytic in 15 patients (9.43%) and maximum cases responded to 20 vials of ante venom. Mortality was nil.Conclusions: Snake bite is a life-threatening emergency. The key in minimizing mortality and severe morbidity is aggressive management of sick patient and timely as well as judicious administration of ante snake venom. There is a requirement to sensitize the general public and healthcare personnel on preventive measures, emergency care and treatment of snake bites. The serious clinical features of snake bite warrant early referral and management in tertiary care centers.

Introduction: Epidemiological studies plays an important role in providing information on the spectrum and frequency of venous disease distribution in a population. In India, study encompassing the clinical evaluation and surgical management of varicose veins on the conventional lines seems a necessity to improve the quality care with the available resources. We have undertaken an epidemiological study on inuence of age, sex, body mass index, posture on clinical manifestations and complications of varicose veins of lower limbs in patients attending the Department of Vascular Surgery . Materials and Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted in Department of vascular surgery on patients with primary varicose veins of lower limb. Patients with secondary varicose veins, recurrent varicose veins, patients less than 18 years, deep vein thrombosis& peripheral arterial disease were excluded from the study. Results: In the present study 88.89% of ulcer patients had combined saphenofemoral(SFJ) and perforator incompetence, while 11.11% of ulcer patients had combined saphenofemoral, saphenopopliteal (SPJ)and perforator incompetence.14% patients present with combined SFJ, SPJ and perforator incompetence. The patients with higher CEAP classication had combined SFJ and SPJ valvular incompetence. Most commonly, the disease affected the males in the age group of 40-50 years. Conclusion: The present study shows that prolonged standing , obesity ,increasing age are the common risk factors for development of varicose veins.

INTRODUCTION: Varicose veins comprises a significant clinical problem representing underlying chronic venous insufficiency with ensuing venous hypertension leading to broad spectrum of clinical manifestations. MATERIALS AND METHOD: Our study is based on evaluation of 125 limbs in 103 patients of lower extremity symptomatic varicose veins. After establishing the nature of venous incompetence and abnormality on both clinical and duplex ultrasonography, patients were subjected to surgery and sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values and diagnostic accuracy was calculated based on operative assessments and findings. RESULTS: Non invasive diagnostic evaluation with duplex sonography in our study proved it to be suitable procedure when sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy was assesed. CONCLUSION: We conclude that in comparison to the cumbersome clinical assessments alone, the combination of clinical with Doppler duplex ultrasounds, proved to be more suitable and reliable procedures in avoiding the inappropriate surgeries.
