Foreign body denture is common among edentulous adults because of decrease the sensitivity of the oral cavity. Carelessness in handling dentures and failure to seek early medical attention even the denture has broken are among the contributing factors. Persistence of symptoms with normal radiograph findings still require further actions which include surgical intervention. Rigid esophagoscopy remain as standard treatment modality for removal of foreign body.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.17(3) 2018 p.515-517

A delayed detection of foreign body airway implicated high morbidity. The longer duration of the foreign body in the lung can lead to a more sinister complication. A radiolucent foreign body, non organic foreign body and unwitnessed foreign body ingestion contribute significantly to the delay in the diagnosis of foreign body aspiration. We report a case of an undiagnosed radio opaque foreign body in the right bronchus for five months in a 8-year-old child, which the onset of foreign body ingestion was witnessed by parents. Eventually he presented with pneumonia and atelectasis. Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.18(4) 2019 p.820-822

Foreign body in the airway is very rare as compared to the alimentary tract. Food particles constitute among the commonest foreign body. The airway obstruction caused by foreign body dislodgement often present with acute emergency condition. The pathognomonic history includes history of choking and noisy breathing. It is an acute emergency and requires immediate medical attention. However in small number of patients the earliest symptom may be ignored leaving only mild neck discomfort. We report a case of comfortable girl with foreign body airway who finally sought treatment after presented with delayed sign and symptoms of partial airway obstruction.

Pharyngeal foreign bodies are quite common. The diagnosis is usually clinical. The risk of complications including retropharyngeal abscess and mediastinitis are very low depending on the nature of foreign body and the duration taken for intervention. We share a challenging case of retropharyngeal abscess secondary to embedded foreign body in a Down syndrome patient, who presented with the sole presentation of torticollis. Surgical intervention with difficulties was performed with favourable outcome. Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.18(3) 2019 p.641-645

Background: Foreign bodies ingestion is a emergency in otology, knowledge of people about foreign bodies ingestion is not enough. Objective: To study the clinical characteristics, paraclinical characteristics and results of treatment from foreign bodies ingestion in Hue Central Hospital and Hue University Hospital. Methods and patiens: A cross descriptive and prospective study over the period from 6/2014 to 5/2016, total are 137 patients come to be diagnosised and treatmented. Results: the average age is 35 years old. Gender: male (51.8%) and women (48.2%). Adults (84.7%) having more than children (15.3%). Age group from 16-30 years is highest (32.8%). There are 95.7% of organic foreign bodies, 4.3% are inorganic foreign bodies. There are 90.5% of patients on diagnosis and treatment in stages less inflammation, arthritis 8.0% in the period and 1.5% in the period complications. Foreign body in the throat problems (73.7%), esophageal foreign bodies (26.3%). Pick up directly foreign bodies 54%, indirectly by the mirror 11.7% and endoscopy 8%, rigid esophagoscopy is 17.5%, flexible esophagoscopy is 7.3%, cervicotomy is 1.5%. Conclusion: Practing direction with in the oropharynx foreign body, using the larynx mirror or endoscopy with in the laryngopharynx for the esophagus foreign bodies, rigid esophagoscopy is better. Key words: Foreign bodies ingestion

Relevance: Modern endonasal surgery allows to remove polyps from all affected paranasal sinuses, following the principles of minimal invasiveness. Minimal traumatic of surgical intervention gives the best results, accompanied by less progression of the disease. Minimal invasiveness of surgical intervention and its obligatory combination with postoperative medical treatment are common practice in many countries. One of the drugs that actively effect the restoration of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses in the early postoperative period is Nazomer, which includes sodium hyaluronate and dexpanthenol in saline solution. The purpose of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of the drug Nazomer in patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis after endoscopic polyposynosotomy. Results and discussion: The main group consisted of 30 patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis, who were prescribed Nasomer in addition to standard treatment in the postoperative period. The control group included 30 patients who underwent standard treatment in the postoperative period. As criteria for clinical efficacy, data from endoscopic examination of the nasal cavity and indicators of anterior rhinomatometry, measured by the «Optimus» device, were selected. In the main group, the index of nasal breathing according to rhinomatometry was better than the results of patients in the control group on the 3rd and 5th day of the postoperative period by 26% and 24%, respectively. Conclusion: The use of the drug Nazomer in the postoperative period in patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis contributes to more active restoration of respiratory function of the nasal cavity compared with the control group, according to rhinomatometry, up to 26%. Based on the results obtained, the drug Nazomer is an effective anti-inflammatory and regenerative agent in the postoperative period in patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis.

The inflammatory root cyst is defined as one of the most frequent inflammatory lesions in the oral cavity where it normally involves the apex of the dental roots, giving frequent pathognomonic clinical and radiological characteristics. The objective of this investigation was to determine the expression of p53 in the culture of isolated stem cells from the inflammatory root cyst. In its methodology, the report of a case of a 69-year-old patient was presented, who underwent surgical intervention to extract pieces 11 and 12, from which the sample was obtained for the isolation and culture of the cyst stem cells. periapical inflammatory, obtaining elongated, flat cells with fibroblastic appearance from day 4 and staining with markers for p53 giving a positive response in the evidence of the p53 gene both in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus of these stem cells. Finally, cells can be obtained from the inflammatory root cyst from 4 to 25 days with the use of a modified protocol, in the end, as a contribution to this article, the evidence of the p53 gene is provided both in the nucleus and in the cell cytoplasm. Keywords: Root cyst, p53 gene, stem cells, isolation and culture

Vatahata Vartma is a condition of Vartma where in the Vartma-Shuklagata Sandhi is afflicted by vitiated Vata leading to Vimukta Sandhi (functional deterioration of the Shuklavartmagata Sandhi which facilitates the movement of eyelids), Nischeshta (no or reduced eyelids activity), Nimilayati (unable to close the eyelids). The signs and symptoms of Vatahata Vartma can be corelated to Ptosis in modern medical science. Ptosis is a medical condition in which there will be drooping or falling of upper eyelid. The condition worsens when there is exhaustion of the extra ocular muscles. This condition can be either uni-ocular or binocular. If the condition is left untreated, it can lead to complications. Surgical intervention is the only line of treatment mentioned for ptosis in contemporary science. Ayurveda has mentioned different treatment modalities for similar conditions. This paper highlights a case study of Vatahata Vartma (ptosis) managed with Ayurvedic line of treatment with Mukhabhyanga, Sweda, Nasya, Akshipindi and Akshi Tarpana. Keywords: Vatahata Vartma, Ptosis, Nasya, Akshitarpana, Akshipindi
