Introduction: There is a controversy on single dose or multiple doses of prophylactic antibiotics for prevention of surgical site infection during laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a developing country setting. The objective of this study was to compare single versus multiple doses of prophylactic antibiotics in terms of surgical site infection in laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients. Methods: This was a prospective, comparative, randomized study was conducted in a medical college hospital. Two hundred consecutive patients with symptomatic cholelithiasis planned for routine laparoscopic cholecystectomy were enrolled in the study. Patients were randomly divided in a Single dose (SD) group and multiple dose (MD) group. SD group were given injection ceftriaxone (1gm) before induction of anesthesia and MD group received ceftriaxone (1gm) before induction of anesthesia and continued a total of 3 doses postoperatively for next 24 hours. Results: A total of 200 patients were studied, of which 100 were in single dose (SD group) and another 100 in multiple dose (MD group). The mean age of patients with symptomatic cholelithiasis was 41.76 ± 13.38 years with minimum of 16 years and maximum of 73 years. Of the total patients, 4 patients in single dose (SD) group and 3 patients in multiple dose (MD) group developed surgical site infection of various severity which was not statistically significant. (p=0.500). Conclusion: There is no difference in terms of surgical site infection in patients taking either single or multiple doses of antibiotics in laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a medical college setting in Nepal.

The study was conducted in the Department of General Surgery, Gandhi Medical College, Bhopal over the period of one & half year. Evaluation started with History and clinical examination including range of movement of joints. Scar was scored as per Clinical Assessment Score. Range of movement was measured using goniometer. Although most patients came for follow up and were compliant with the rehabilitation protocol, their compliance needs to be re-evaluated at every follow up and they should be encouraged to follow the advices strictly. Also they must be counseled that contracture may not be corrected to the full extent despite best of treatment and compliance with rehabilitation protocol but a good level of improvement can be achieved. Keywords: Burn, Surgery, Rehabilitation & Recurrence.

Background: Tuberculosis is ubiquitous in distribution. Globally, nearly 30 million people suffer from tuberculosis. 3 million deaths occur due to tuberculosis per year. India has burden of 6 million cases. Of these 1-3% constitutes skeletal system involvement. Methods: The present study included prospective cases of tuberculosis of dorsal and lumbar spine admitted and operated at Indira Gandhi Medical College, Shimla between May 2017 to May 2018 and retrospective patients who have been operated before May 2017. Results: There was improvement from preoperative kyphotic angle to postoperative kyphotic angle and improvement in kyphotic angle as a significant difference less than 0.05 (p value is 0.01). Conclusion: At the end of our study, we concluded that good sagittal balance along with good fusion of the vertebrae leads to better functional outcome in patients. Keywords: Spine, TB, Kyphotic angle.

Background: Although, traditional laparoscopic cholecystectomy is performed using four-port technique, various modifications were made to further enhance the advantages of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Aim of the study is to compare the results of three-port and four-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy at single center in terms of technical feasibility, safety of the procedure, operative time, intra-operative complications, postoperative pain and post-operative analgesia requirementMethods: It was a  prospective comparative study conducted  in the department of surgery Skims Medical college Srinagar, India from July 2015 to March 2017. The study was performed on all adult patients with ultrasound documented cholelithiasis and gall bladder Polyposis. The total number of patients studied was 100 which were divided into two groups of 50 each.Results: The average operative time in three port group was 29.2 minutes (range, 15-37) compared to 30.66 minutes (range, 15-42) in four port group, which was statistically insignificant. The final visual analog scores for pain in the postoperative period was 2.30 vs 2.86 in three port and four port group respectively, with a P value=0.008, which was statistically significant.Conclusions: The three-port technique is as safe as the standard four-port technique and can be a viable alternative to four port cholecystectomy with an advantage of less pain and less analgesic requirement and better cosmetic results.

Background: Laparoscopic nephrectomy has been established as the standard of care for the management of benign non-functioning kidneys and has gained worldwide popularity over the past decade. Methods- This study was conducted in the Department of General surgery, Indira Gandhi medical college, Shimla on 20 selected patients of benign non functional kidney admitted for elective Laparoscopic Nephrectomy between July 2018 to June 2019 Results: In this study, the mean operating time in success full laparoscopic nephrectomies was 103.7 + 20.6 min in lap converted to open it was    165 .7 +26.99 min and in hand-assisted tame taken was 150 min which is statically not significant with p value =0.1317. Conclusion: The mean time taken for completion of laparoscopic nephrectomy in first 4 cases was 105 min and in next 4 cases was 108 min and in last 4 cases it was 97 min there was definitive learning curve as in last 4 cases operating time was less as compared to initial cases but operating time also depends on other factors like in hydronephrotic kidney due to well maintained plane dissection take less time ,but in  pyonephrotic kidney ,tubercular kidney,previously intervension like PCN, there were dense adhesion resulting in more time for disection. Keywords: Laparoscopy, Nephrectomy, Duration of surgery

Background: To compare the recovery in ketofol (ketamine and   propofol) with propofol alone for vas in   patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy Methods: Prospective, randomized, double blinded controlled trial. After approval by the research ethics committee and written informed valid consent of the patients, the proposed study was carried out for a period of one year in 60  patients , in ASA-I and ASA-II patients, aged between 19 to 60 years of either sex, who were  posted for laproscopic cholecystectomy surgery at Indira Gandhi Medical College, Shimla. Results: Recovery profile was statistically significant for two groups. In group P after stopping infusion ,mean time for eye opening was 8.27 ± 1.28 which was less than group K ( 12.53 ± 1.48).  Mean time of response to verbal command in group P(8.4 ± 1.19) was less than group K (12.5 ± 1.46) and mean time of extubation in group P (9.5 ± 1.25) was also less than group K (14.33 ± 1.52). Conclusion- Patients of Group P after stopping of infusion took less time for eye opening, obeying verbal command and also less time for extubation  in comparison to group K .

Background: This prospective study was carried out to analyse the prevalence of subclinical hypothyroidism in patients of gall stones.Methods: A prospective study was carried out in the Gandhi Medical College and associated Hamidia Hospital Bhopal from 2015 to 2016. Data was collected from patients who were admitted in surgical wards, with a provisional diagnosis of cholelithiasis. Patient was diagnosed cholelithiasis on abdominal ultrasonography and was tested for having subclinical hypothyroidism by testing fasting blood samples for serum TSH.Results: A total of 50 patients of cholelithiasis were included in present study. Females were 42 out of 50 (84%) and males were 8 out of 50 (16%). Most common age group was 41-50 (36%) correct (insignificant at p<0.05). 12 (24%) out 50 patients were hypothyroid. Out of total 42 females 11(26.19 %) were hypothyroid (insignificant at p<0.05). All stones in hypothyroidism patients were >1cm and overall 58% stones were >1cm (statically significant P<0.05). 03 out of 12 hypothyroidisms (25%) patient had single stones while 9 (75%) patient have multiple stone (statically significant P value <0.05). In hypothyroid cases most stones were of cholesterol type (58%) (Statically significant at P value≤0.05).Conclusions: Early diagnosis of hypothyroid state at subclinical level by monitoring TSH level so that they can be treated at early stages and burden of Cholelithiasis thus can be prevented.
