Objective: To observe the congenital abnormalities of female genital tract those are found in our population and their clinical implication. Place of study: Faridpur Medical College Hospital, Faridpur. Study period: January 2001 to December 2005. Methods and Materials: During the study period all cases of congenital abnormalities of female genital tract diagnosed in Faridpur Medical College Hospital were studied. Results: Total 74 women with different types of congenital abnormalities were detected. Though some cases were diagnosed incidentally, the various symptoms they produced were primary amenorrhea, apareunia, dyspareunia, hematocolpos and hematometra, infertility, prolapse uterus, abortions, ectopic pregnancy, premature labour and malpresentations. Among the 74 patients 35(47.3%) patients were treated at this centre, 24(32.4%) patients needed no treatment, 3(4%) patients were referred to higher centres for specialized treatment. Conclusion: Different types of congenital abnormalities of female genital tract are found in our population which cause various symptoms and complications. Though not all abnormalities need treatment and some need very simple treatment, there are some cases which need specialized treatment and expertise. (J Bangladesh Coll Phys Surg 2007; 25 : 23-28)

Aim: To determine frequency of female genital tract (FGT) tuberculosis (TB) in the gynecological biopsies received in the Department of pathology of a peripheral medical college. Methods: This is a retrospective study conducted in the Department of Pathology of Burdwan Medical College & Hospital. Histopathological records of two year (2008-2010) were retrieved and searched for the cases of female genital tract TB. Relevant histopathological findings and clinical data were recorded and analyzed. Results: There were 1537 cases of gynecological biopsy and 9 cases were diagnosed as FGT tuberculosis based on histopathological and clinical findings. Ovarian benign cystic teratoma was seen in one case along with ipsilateral tuberculous salpingitis, one case showed B/L ovarian tuberculosis with involvement of both the tubes. Bilateral fallopian tubes were involved in 2 cases and endometrial tuberculosis was diagnosed in 5 cases with 1 case showing simultaneous involvement of the cervix. In one case omental biopsy received along with tubal specimen showed tuberculous granulomas. Conclusion: FGT tuberculosis was usually seen in  age 16-28 years and constituted 0.59% of total gynecological cases. Fallopian tubes, ovaries and endometrium and cervix were affected with the involvement of peritoneum or omentum, commonest being tuberculous endometritis. Histopathology, in association with clinical findings still remains gold standard for the diagnosis of FGT tuberculosis in our country despite advancement in diagnostic modalities; however, incidental histological detection in clinically unanticipated cases is not an uncommon event.

SUMMARYThe spermatozoa of ticks are anomalous in many respects: they are very large, cytoplasm-rich cells which lack a flagellum but move with a peculiar gliding motility. Their metamorphosis after deposition in the female has been well documented, but many of the subsequent events in the career of the spermatozoa are controversial or poorly documented. Our observations of motility imply that the many types of motility that have been reported (up to 5 different types in several reports) can be reduced to 2 apparently independent types of active motility: (1) gliding motility generated along the whole spermatozoon and (2) contortions of the anterior tip of the head. These types of motility appear as a consequence of sperm maturation after transfer to the female, but only become pronounced if the female has taken a recent bloodmeal. A consequence of this enhanced gliding motility after feeding is the movement of the spermatozoa out of the naturally ruptured neck of the spermatophore and up the female genital tract. This occurs without any apparent assistance from the female's musculature and likely is the prime mechanism of movement of the spermatozoa to the site of fertilization.

Ultrasonography is an easy, noninvasive, rapid investigation advised by doctors worldwide. Hence we diagnosed different types of cases through ultrasonography at outdoor patients admitted to Department of Rangpur Medical College Hospital, Rangpur Bangladesh over a period of four months. Our objective was to investigate the prevalence of different types of cases diagnosed and evaluated by ultrasonography in a variety of physical conditions with multiple clinical scenarios. Ultrasonography were performed using GE Logiq V5 Expert ultrasound machine with linear and curved linear phased array transducers. A total 300 cases were diagnosed, where female and male cases were 204 (68%), 96 (32%) respectively. Most ultrasound examinations were abdominal, with the remainder being obstetric, pelvic, breast, and genitourinary examinations. In this study, abdominal ultrasonography represented 118 case (39.33%), Pelvic 54 (18%), KUB 57 (19%), Breast 7 (2.33%) and Obstetrics 64 (21.33%). We found general clinical prevalence of abdominal cases were Cholelithiasis 17 (5.67%), Cholecystitis 3 (1%), Fatty liver 24 (8%), Hepatic Mass 2 (0.67%), Hepatic cyst 1 (0.33%), Acute hepatitis 2 (0.67%), Acute appendicitis 6 (2%), Ascites 2 (0.67%), Hernia 3(1%), Acute pancreatitis 2 (0.67%), Choledocholithiasis 2 (0.67%), Splenomegaly 1 (0.33 %), Abscess 1 (0.33%) and normal cases were 54 (18%). In genitourinary, Stone 20 (6.67%), Cyst 7 (2.33%), RPD 11 (3.67), Cystitis 4 (1.33), Ectopic kidney 1 (0.33%), Enlarged prostate 6 (2%), Hydronephrosis 1 (0.33%), Mass lesion 2 (0.67%) and normal cases were 7 (2.33%). In Pelvic, RPC 11 (3.67%), Ovarian and adnexal cyst 11 (3.67%), Uterine Anomaly 14 (4.67%), Mass lesion 2 (0.67%), Collection 7 (2.33) and normal cases were 5 (1.67%). In Obstetrics, normal pregnancy with no or minor complications, pregnancy with severe complications and abnormal pregnancy were 31(10.33%), 30(10%) and 3(1.0%) respectively. In Breast, dilated duct 1 (0.33%), Abscess 2 (0.67%), Fibroadenoma 2 (0.67%) and normal cases were 2 (0.67%). Here, we found that Fatty liver, stone in genitourinary tract and gall stone were highly prevalent. So, health care providers need to concern and raise awareness to reduce the number of cases.

Background: Smooth induction and smooth maintenance, smooth reversal and quite recovery is a key word in general anaesthesia. All anaesthetist desires that his patients wake-up smoothly & quietly. However the matter is not easy at all. Anaesthetist often faces a bitter experiences & awk.ward situation during recovery from anaesthesia. Objective: To detect the degree & frequency of restlessness in various types of patients of different age & sex groups and in different types of operations.Methodology & Materials : Our study was carried out in North Bengal Medical College Hospital, Sirajgonj, in between July/2014 & December/2014. 60 (sixty) patients were chosen of different age & sex group and of different types of operation for this perpous.Results: Our study shows that the patients of E.N.T. surgery & the patients of Paediatric surgery, were most vulnerable & responded badly, during reversal and in the post operative ward. Among others a few of them developed restlessness due to some other cause. The children were more prone to develop restlessness than the adults. The Orthopaedic surgery patients also responded badly during recovery period.Conclusion: Special attention should given to this matter as it is really a hazardous situation to all; (i.e. anaesthetist, surgeon, O.T. Sister). An adequate pre-medication,smooth induction, quiet maintenance, smooth reversal & a suitable post operative analgesic is absolutely necessary. Pre anesthetic visit & close rapport with the patient is also essential to overcome this situation.KYAMC Journal Vol. 6, No.-2, Jan 2016, Page 645-648

Genital tract and breast are two most common sites of malignancy in females. Out of the genital tract malignancies, carcinoma cervix is so far found to be the commonest followed by ovary and endometrium. In developed countries, carcinoma cervix incidence is comparatively quite low due to good regular screening of females. One year review of patients was done, who underwent definitive/debulking surgery for a diagnosed malignant pathology of the genital tract, in obstetrics and gynaecology department of Govt medical College and Hospital, Chandigarh. Total 62 patients were operated, most common indication was carcinoma ovary, followed by endometrial cancer, cancer cervix and gestational trophoblastic neoplasia. 166 patients underwent biopsies for suspicious symptoms or the abnormal findings on examination and the patients with final malignancy report were either operated as described above and the inoperable cases were referred to oncotherapy department for further management.

Background: Identification of the abnormal colonization of the genital tract by a culture based approach has been recommended by the CDC 2000. This will definitely aid in the early recognition of mothers who need to be effectively treated which in turn will prevent newborn infections. Objectives were to study the pattern of maternal vaginal flora in labor and to study the outcome in the neonate.Methods: This study was conducted on 250 mothers in labor and their babies followed up till discharge in the departments of OBG and neonatology in a tertiary care medical college hospital, Deliveries by caesarean section were excluded.Results: Of the 250 babies, 70 were small for gestational age (SGA) and of these 60 (85.71%) were born to colonized mothers; whereas among the appropriate for gestation (AGA) babies, 110 (61.11%) were those born to non-colonised mothers. A statistically significant association was found between SGA babies and maternal colonization. Whereas relation between maternal colonization and gestational age did not show a statistically significant difference.Conclusions: This study shows us that maternal vaginal colonisation in labor significantly impacted the baby's weight with increase in small for gestational age babies being more among the colonised mothers. Hence, finding the organism in the maternal vaginal flora and treating it as per sensitivity might result in lesser incidence of SGA babies.
