Sociodemographic Profile

Background/Aim: This study was aimed to provide a sociodemographic prole of intestinal obstruction in a tertiary care hospital in Kumaun region of Uttarakhand, India. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of patients admitted in our hospital with a diagnosis of intestinal obstruction between the years 2019 and 2020 at Dr. Susheela Tiwari Government Hospital, Haldwani, Uttarakhand. The study comprised of 250 patients. Results: The commonest age group affected was 18-30 years. In our patients, the main cause of obstruction was adhesions followed by abdominal tuberculosis with MALIGNANCY coming third. Conservative management was advocated in 72 patients while the rest underwent surgery. Conclusion: Adhesion was the main etiology in Intestinal Obstruction. The odds of malignant bowel obstruction are increasing in the proportion of Intestinal Obstruction. There were some differences towards the etiologic spectrum compared with western countries.

Background:Extra-pulmonary tuberculosis can affect the lymph nodes, pleura, bones, joints, genito-urinary tract, nervous system (meningitis, tuberculoma), abdominal tuberculosis (intestines, mesentery, solid organs), skin. Materials and Methods: It is a record based, observational prospective study which assesses the presentation and evaluation of the site of distribution of extrapulmonary tuberculosis and management of it in a tertiary care hospital. Result:In present study, 26% of cases from lymph node TB, 20% cases from CNS and pleural TB, 18% cases from GIT, 8% cases from skeletal TB, 4% cases from GUT, 2% cases from ocular and 2% cases from pericardial TB Conclusion:The frequency of extrapulmonary TB in this study was highest in lymph node followed by pleural, CNS, GIT, skeletal and others respectively

Background: Abdominal tuberculosis is the sixth most common form of extrapulmonary site of infection after lymphatic, genitourinary, bone and joint, miliary and meningeal TB with a rising incidence in recent years. Tuberculosis can affect any part of the gastro-intestinal (GI) tract including anus, peritoneum and hepato-biliary system. The clinical manifestations of abdominal tuberculosis are non-specific and mimic various GI disorders and cause delay in diagnosis and management. The aim of this study is to study the incidence of abdominal tuberculosis, percentage of acute presentation, to study and analyse clinical presentation, various diagnostic modalities, role of surgery and to evaluate the spectrum of surgeries done for abdominal tuberculosisMethods: Study was done by analyzing 108 cases in our tertiary care hospital, Chennai, India, during the period of June 2015 to January 2016. All suspected and diagnosed cases of abdominal tuberculosis were included in the study. The relevant clinical information, laboratory results, microbiological and radiological investigations were recorded. Histopathological examination of all the resected or excised specimens was done to detect tuberculosis in all the cases.Results: Out of 108 cases with abdominal tuberculosis, the average age of presentation was between 21 and 40 years with a slight male predominance (male:female = 1.1:1). Abdominal pain (92%) was the most common presenting symptom followed by anorexia (70%), loss of weight (70%), and intestinal obstruction (13%). 29 cases underwent surgical management. All patients were put on anti-tubercular treatment and majority showed good response to therapy.Conclusions: Abdominal tuberculosis should be considered as a differential diagnosis in patients with vague GI symptoms. To diagnose abdominal tuberculosis, high degree of suspicion is needed, and its incidence being common in people with lower socioeconomic status. This study gives a basic outline of presentation, diagnosis and management of abdominal tuberculosis in developing country.

Background:Extra-pulmonary tuberculosis can affect the lymph nodes, pleura, bones, joints, genitourinary tract, nervous system (meningitis, tuberculoma), abdominal tuberculosis (intestines, mesentery, solid organs), skin. Materials and Methods: It is a record based, observational prospective study which assesses the presentation and evaluation of the socio-economic distribution of extrapulmonary tuberculosis and management of it in a tertiary care hospital. Result: In present study, out of 50 cases 52% patients were from low socio-economic class, 44% patients were from middle socioeconomic class and 4% were from high socio-economic class. Conclusion:The frequency of extrapulmonary TB in this study was highest in low socio-economic class followed by middle and high socio-economic class.
