Objective: To compare the clean intermittent self-catheterization (CISC) with continuous indwelling catheterization (CIDC) in relieving acute urinary retention (AUR) due to benign enlargement of prostate (BEP). Materials and Methods :A total 60 patients attending in urology department of Dhaka Medical college hospital were included according to inclusion criteria ,Patients were randomized by lottery into two groups namely group –A and group –B for CISC and IDC drainage respectively . Thus total 60 patients 30 in each group completed study. Results : Most men can safely be managed as out-patients after AUR due to BPH. The degree of mucosal congestion and inflammation within the bladder was found to be lower in those using CISC and the bladder capacity in these patients was also found higher.Patients with an IDC had a high incidence of UTIs then that of patients with CISC. During the period of catheterization the incidence of UTI was 43.3% in group B in comparison to 40% in group A; before TURP 36% in group B in comparison to 10% incidence in group A.According to patient’s opinion CISC is better than IDC in the management of AUR. Experiencing bladder spasm, reporting blood in urine, management difficulties, incidence and severity of pain were less in CISC group, and the method of CISC was well accepted by patients as well as their family members. Conclusion: From the current study it may be suggested that CISC is better technique for management of AUR patient due to BPH than IDC. It can also be very helpful when surgery must be delayed or avoided due to any reasons in this group of patients. Bangladesh Journal of Urology, Vol. 21, No. 2, July 2018 p.105-110

Background: Osteoarthritis of knee joint is one of the most common problem which cause pain, loss of function even joint disability and increases misery and morbidity in old age. Now a day’s intra-articular injection of single Hyaluronic acid or corticosteroids (Methylprednisolone) are using for knee osteoarthritis cases. But the combined therapy by injection of both Hyaluronic acid and Methyl prednisolone are not so much practiced and still under debate. Objectives: To compare the efficacy of intra-articular injection of combined Hyaluronic acid and Methyl prednisolone with single Hyaluronic acid alone. Methods: A prospective, comparative study was done in Northern International Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, during May 2017 to April 2018 at Out Patient Department with 80 patients (132 knees). Patients were randomized into two groups: Group-A with 40 patients with 15 unilateral and 25 bilateral knee cases (65 knees) were treated with combined Hyaluronic acid and Methyl prednisolone and Group-B with 40 patients with13 unilateral and 27 bilateral knee cases (67 knees) were infiltrated with single Hyaluronic acid. Results were evaluated with Knee Society Score (KSS) and Visual analogue score (VAS) at the 1st week, 1st month and 3rd month after injection. Result: In both Group (A and B) patients of age 61–70 years were highest, 50% and 45% respectively. Male and female ratio was 1:2.2. At the 1st week KSS for pain in Group-A (mean 65.6) was better than Group-B (mean 57.4). At the 1st month mean pain scores (Group-A 72.4, Group-B 64.4) and the 3rd month (Group-A 81.4, Group-B 75.6) and mean function scores at 1st week (Group-A 61.3, Group-B 49.6)), 1st month (Group-A65.1, Group-B 53.6) and 3rd month (Group-A68.4, Group-B 59.4). The KSS for pain and function improved in combination therapy group.VAS decreased in both groups. Conclusion: As combination therapy by Hyaluronic acid and Methyl prednisolone showed better efficacy than single Hyaluronic acid. Therefore, combination of these two drugs in a single vial can be used as an effective and easy nonoperative treatment of knee osteoarthritis.
