The study aims to present the clinical profile and management outcomes of parathyroid adenoma patients in our institutions. This retrospective study included ten patients with parathyroid adenoma presented to Department of Otolaryngology and Head-Neck Surgery at Dhaka Medical College Hospital and Ibn Sina Medical College Hospital, Dhaka from January 2004 to January 2011.Out of 10 patients, 8 were female. Average age of presentation was 50 years. 6 patients were symptomatic and 4 were asymptomatic. In 8 patients, serum creatinine level was within normal limits and 2 patients had elevated serum creatinine level. All 10 patients had hypercalcaemia and increase parathormone level, from mild to severe. CT guided fine needle aspiration cytology diagnosed 2 cases preoperatively. 6 patients diagnosed with 99mTc Sestamibi scan and 3 patients diagnosed by single photon emission computed tomography (SPECTCT) dual isotope (I-123/99mTc-MIBI) substraction for imaging parathyroid adenoma. All the patients underwent parathyroidectomy except for 1 patient in whom hemithyroidectomy was done. Postoperative period was not without complications but has been managed with strong monitoring. Long term follow up was done up to 1 year with 100% cure rate. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjo.v20i1.22014 Bangladesh J Otorhinolaryngol; April 2014; 20(1): 27-34

Background: Most frequently performed gynaecological surgery is hysterectomy. The prevalence of hysterectomy varies within different regions. There are mainly two types of hysterectomies according to which part of uterus is removed. The main types of hysterectomy are total and subtotal or partial hysterectomy. The hysterectomy can be performed by three routes abdominal, laproscopic and vaginal hysterectomy. The main objective of our study is to know most common pathology and different age groups of the patients underwent hysterectomy. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study was carried during period 6 months, at GCS medical college, hospital and research centre, Ahmedabad. Total 100 hysterectomy specimens were analyzed for histopathological lesions. We had taken the clinical and histopathological findings of these cases from the records of department of pathology, GCS medical college , hospital and research centre. Results: In our study of 100 cases, most common age group underwent hysterectomy was 40-49 years and least common age group was 20-29 years. Type of hysterectomy performed most commonly in this study was total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingoophorectomy. Most of lesions were seen in the myometrium 42 cases (42%), Endometrium 32 cases (32%), Cervix 16 cases (16%) and Ovary 10 cases (10%). Hysterectomy remains the widely used treatment modality.

Background: Postdated pregnancy complicates about 10% of all gestation and is associated with an increase in perinatal mortality and morbidity. This study was designed to observe fetal as well as maternal outcome in the management of postdated pregnancies admitted into Rajshahi Medical College Hospital. Methods: The study was carried out from July 2008 to June 2010. 100 cases of postdated pregnancies were included. Patients’ age, occupation, parity, mode of delivery, the indication of LUCS, fetal & maternal outcomes were recorded in a predesigned questionnaire. Results were expressed as Mean± SD, actual number and percentage of total where applicable. Results: Mean age (±SD) was 21.3 (±5.32) years. 90% were housewives, 5% were in service and 5% were in other occupations. 53% were nullipara, 21% para-2, 18% were para-3, 8% were para-4.57% of the study patients underwent caesarean section and 43% underwent vaginal delivery. Fetal distress (n=34), non-progression of labour (n=19), cord prolapse (n=1) & CPD (n=3) were the causes of LUCS. Regarding fetal outcome, healthy babies were 76%, meconium aspiration 13%, birth asphyxia 11%. Among birth asphyxia, neonatal death was 1% & still born was 2%. Maternal complications at delivery were tear in the genital tract 8%, PPH 5% & wound infection in 4% cases. Conclusion: Here, still-birth rate was 2% (normally about 1 in 3000 deliveries) and perinatal mortality rate is 3% (normally about 2-3 in 1000 deliveries). So, patients should be encouraged to attend regular antenatal check up to prevent postdated pregnancy and its complications. TAJ 2018; 31(2): 50-53

y, mainly due to infections and complications of prematurity. The present article is a descriptive analysis of the most common reasons for hospital admission of VLBW infants, morbidity during hospital stay, and their immediate outcome at a community level medical college hospital in Bangladesh. Sixty VLBW neonates (< 1,500 grams weight), 37 males and 23 females, < 72 hours of age were enrolled prospectively from March 2005 to February 2007; 4 babies were excluded. Thirty-four babies were hospital born and 26 home delivered cases admitted postnatally. The mean birth weight and gestational age of the newborns were 1270 ± 169 grams and 30.9 ± 2.9 weeks respectively. Forty-one of 60 cases (68.3%) mothers received at least one antenatal care visit. Common clinical presentations were prematurity alone (36.7%) and its complications like delayed crying (25.0%), feeding problem (23.3%), lethargy (16.7%), hypothermia (10.0%) and respiratory problem (8.3%). The commonest morbidity during hospital stay was neonatal hyperbilirubinemia requiring phototherapy (26.7%), apnoea of prematurity (15.0%), and septicaemia (11.7%). The overall survival rate was 56.7%; most of the deceased cases were those < 1250 grams (15/28, 53.6%) and < 30 weeks of gestation (17/30, 56.7%). No infant with a birth weight < 850 grams or a gestational age < 28 weeks survived. The most common cause of death was birth asphyxia (38.5%), followed by extreme prematurity (26.9%), and septicaemia (19.2%). Very low birth weight infants had relatively higher survival rates probably due to low infection rate. DOI: 10.3329/jbcps.v26i3.4196 J Bangladesh Coll Phys Surg 2008; 26: 128-134

Objectives: The objective of this study was to take a look at main causes associated with highest neonatal morbidity and mortality in neonatal care unit of People’s medical college hospital Nawabshah. Study Design: Retrospective study. Period: January 2015 to December 2015. Setting: Paediatric medicine ward of People’s medical college hospital Nawabshah. Methods: The data collected included; sex, gestational age, postnatal age atadmission, weight at admission, main cause of admission, outcome, cause of death. Results: The number of neonates admitted in NICU was 2863 (14.4%) of the total admissions (19882) to the paediatric unit including neonatal unit during the study period. There were more males 1750 (61.9%) than females. Prematurity, neonatal sepsis and birth asphyxia were the most common morbidities (27.5%, 14.9% and 14.6%, respectively). The overall mortality was 21.93% (628 out of 2863 babies). The morbidities with the highest mortality were birth asphyxia 244(38.85%), neonatal sepsis and meningitis 77 (12.26%), and V.L.B.W (9.03%). Conclusion: Birth Asphyxia, neonatal sepsis and meningitis, and low birth weight were the major contributors in admission as well as mortality of newborns, depicting a lack of care and attention in antenatal duration and there is a major lack of training and retraining of birth attendants.
