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%).

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

The aim of the present study was to identify factors associated with misdiagnosis of appendicitis to propose solutions to decrease the misdiagnosis rate of appendicitis. The study conducted an institutional and a population based analyses on misdiagnosis of appendicitis conducted in Khulna district, Bangladesh. The study dealt with 2 groups of patients. Group 1 consisted of the patients treated in Gazi Medical College Hospital (GMCH), Khulna either in out-patient department (OPD) within the last 3 years (from 2014 to 2016), treating doctors suggested appendicectomy and in indoor-patient department (IPD) within the last 5 years (from 2012 to 2016), the diagnosis was done either during operation or admitted as postoperative complications. Patients for Group 2 were selected purposively from the patients who were from different villages of Rupsha and Fakirhat Upazila or from Khulna city previously underwent appendicectomy within the last 5 years (from 2012 to 2016) in different hospitals other than GMCH, Khulna and previous symptoms were still existed. The study revealed that the majority of the patients were female (OPD 81.5%, IPD 68.8% in Group 1 and 83.2% in Group 2). The misdiagnosis rate of appendicitis for the patients attended GMCH OPD and GMCH IPD was 23.0% and 8.9%, respectfully. The overall misdiagnosis rate of appendicitis for the patients attended GMCH was 14.0%. In case of the patients attended GMCH OPD, most of them had UTI and chronic cystitis (45.5%). In case of the patients attended GMCH IPD, most of them had non-inflamed appendix (84.4%). The misdiagnosis rate of appendicitis for the patients in Group 2 was 23.2%. Some factors were identified and bearing in mind the factors, all the concerned should be more careful and conscious while making the diagnosis of appendicitis to avoid misdiagnosis and patients’ suffering.Mediscope Vol. 4, No. 2: Jul 2017, Page 29-34

Colon is one of the most commonly injured viscera followed by small gut and liver in abdomen for which management becomes complicated had the type and severity of injury not been assessed properly. With improved facilities in patient care and proper use of antibiotics the inclination is directed towards primary repair of colon without diversion. This study was aimed to assess the efficacy of primary repair in a tertiary hospital. A number of 50 patients of traumatic gut injury from 15-50 years (31.18 ± 9.38 years) mainly presenting with RTA with blunt trauma abdomen (54.0%) and different types of stab injury (40.0%) were managed with primary repair in the department of casualty in Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka between the period of January to June 2009. On admission more than half (52.0%) had hypotension, 70.0% distended abdomen, 84.0% tender abdomen, 58.0% presented with abdominal rigidity while 80% of them had perforation of the small and 20% had the same in large gut. After primary repair, only 6% developed chest infection and 4% developed wound infection. The findings suggest that primary repair without diversion in the treatment of traumatic gut injury can be performed among patients admitted in our hospitals.

Background: Cancer is a major health burden worldwide. By 2030, over 9 million cancer patients are assumed to die in developing countries from different types of cancers. Incidence of different types of cancers is increasing due to unhealthy life style. At present, lung cancer is most prevalent in Bangladeshi male whereas it is cancer cervix in female.Objective: To determine the frequency, pattern and treatment modalities in different types of cancer in different age and sex group to get an idea about national cancer scenario.Materials and method: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 1300 cancer patients attending at Delta Medical College Hospital within three months duration (from 15.07.10 to 15.10.10). Histologically proven malignant cases were included in the study.Results: There were 400 male and 900 female patients. Male: female ratio was 1:2.25. Among all patients, cervical cancer was the top most common malignancy (23.07%) followed by breast (22.46%). In male, lung cancer was found to be the most common cancer (15.75%), followed by non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (13.75%), colorectal (12%), stomach (6.75%), and oesophageal (5.75%) carcinomas. In female patients, carcinoma cervix was the top most cancer (33.33%), followed by breast (32.33%), ovary (6.11%), gall bladder (3.77%), and colorectal (3%) carcinomas. Majority of cancers occurred in middle and older age groups. Combination of surgery, chemotherapy and teletherapy was the most common form of treatment.Conclusion: The findings of the study may provide a helpful clue to important facts and figures of different types of cancers in Bangladesh.Delta Med Col J.
