Anti Tubercular Therapy

Tuberculous mastitis is a rare entity in patients with mammary disease even in countries where incidence of tuberculosis is high. In Bangladesh, TB is an endemic disease but breast tuberculosis is rarely reported. Its clinical patterns and treatment strategies are changing day by day. With this study, we aimed to analyze the role of surgery in diagnosis and treatment of hundred (100) cases received care for tuberculous mastitis at the Chest Disease Hospital, Rajshahi, from July’ 2012 to July’ 2016. This is a prospective nonrandomized descriptive study. Diagnosis was made in all patients initially by cytological examination from suspected lesions, which revealed typical tuberculous lesions. In all the patients the diagnosis was confirmed by biopsy of the lesion (open biopsy or core cut biopsy) with histological examination and detection of acid fast bacilli in discharge by Gene x-pert test and Z-N staining to exclude idiopathic granulomatous mastitis, malignancy and very rare concomitant malignancy. Medical therapy with anti-tubercular drugs (ATT) ranging from 9 to 12 months with follow up monthly was the mainstay of treatment. Surgical intervention reserved for selected refractory cases (36%). Extension of anti-tubercular therapy from 9 to 12 or 18 months required in fifty-eight(58) patients on the basis of slow clinical response. Complete resolution obtained in 92 patients but residual tiny mass in eight patients confirmed by repeated FNAC or biopsy to be fibrotic. Surgery play an essential role both in diagnosis and treatment of tubercular mastitis in addition with ATT but beware about unnecessary surgical intervention as majority of patients cured with only ATT.TAJ 2014; 27(1): 44-49

The Brain

The identification of autoantibodies generated against the brain isoform water channel aquaporin4 in the sera of patients, changed the current diagnostic guidelines and concept of neuromyelitis optica (NMO). In a number of cases, clinical manifestation is spatially limited to myelitis or relapsing optic neuritis creating a diverse. NMO spectrum. Since prevention of relapses provides the only possibility to reduce permanent disability, early diagnosis and treatment is mandatory. In the present study, we discuss the potential role of neuroimaging and laboratory tests in differentiating the NMO spectrum from other diseases, as well as the diagnostic procedures and therapeutic options. We also present clinical cases, to provide examples of different clinical settings, diagnostic procedures and therapeutic decisions.

Aim of this letter is to attract the attention of journal readers to the study of exosomes as an important direction in the development of Oncology, in particular, in the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. Exosomes are produced by tumor cells and regulate proliferation, metastasis, and the development of chemoresistance. Their extraction from biological fluids allows further use of these vesicles as potential biomarkers of prostate cancer. In the future, exosomes can be successfully used in the delivery of drugs and other anti-tumor substances to cancer cells.

Te lecture presents modern concept of the symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), which accounts for about 10% of cases of dementia. Te nosological status of DLB and the problem of ratio of DLB and Parkinson’s disease which, apparently, represent two phenotypic variants of one neurodegenerative process («diseases with Lewy bodies») are considered in historical aspect. Approaches to the diagnosis and coding of DLB in accordance with ICD-10 are proposed. Te role of cholinesterase inhibitors, antipsychotics, levodopa, rasagiline and other drugs in the treatment of patients with DLB is аnalyzed.

Abstract Background The guidelines suggest close co-operation between TLE operating team and cardiac surgery and its key role in the management of life-threatening complications remains unquestionable. But the role of cardiac surgeon seems to be much more extended. Purpose We have analysed the role of cardiac surgery in treatment of patients undergoing TLE procedures. Methods Using standard non-powered mechanical systems we have extracted ingrown PM/ICD leads from 3207 pts (38,7% female, average age 65,7-y) during the last 14 years. Non-infectious TLE indications were in 66,4% of patients. 46% had PM DDD system, 19% PM SSI, 22% ICD, 9% CRT, 4% other systems. In 12% of patients abandoned leads were found. 8% of patients had one lead, 54% - two, 15% - three and 4% - 4–6 leads in the heart. An average dwell time of all leads was 91,5 mth. The lead entry side was left in 96% of patients, right in 3% and both – 4%. Results Procedural success 96,1%, clinical success - 97,8%, procedure-related death 0,2%. Major complications appeared in 1,9% (cardiac tamponade 1,2%, haemothorax 0,2%, tricuspid valve damage 0,3%, stroke, pulmonary embolism <1%). Conclusions Rescue cardiac surgery (for severe haemorrhagic complications) is still the most frequent reason of surgical intervention (1,1%). The second area of co-operation includes supplementary cardiac surgery after (incomplete) TLE (0,8%). The third one is connected with reconstruction or replacement of tricuspid valve, which can be affected by ingrown lead or damaged during TLE procedure (0,5%). Implantation of the complete epicardial system during any surgical intervention (rescue or delayed) should be considered as a supplementation of the operation (0,65%). Some of patients after TLE need implantation of epicardial leads for permanent epicardial pacing (0,6%) and some only left ventricular lead to rebuild permanent cardiac resynchronisation (0,5%). The single experience of large TLE centre indicates the necessity of close co-operation with cardiac surgeon, whose role seems to be more comprehensive than a surgical stand-by itself.
