The aim of this study is to determine the incidence and to evaluate and analyse the clinical presentation, risk factor and treatment of ectopic pregnancy in Holy Family Red Crescent Medical College Hospital, Dhaka. A prospective study was conducted in Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology from August 2016 to December 2017. The study subjects included 50 women diagnosed with ectopic pregnancy (EP) to receive the treatment of medical and surgical procedure. In this study group the incidence was 4.7% among total gynecological admitted patient (2017) and the risk were within the age group 27-35 years. Majority of patients were having triad of symptom such as abdominal pain, secondary amenorrhoea and vaginal bleeding. Past NO abortion and abdomino-pelvic surgery were 66%. The commonest modality of treatment was Laparotomy (41 of 50, 86%), others were conservative with Inj. Methotrexate, failed conservative followed by Laparotomy (4%) and Laparoscopy (2%). EP is a common and life threatening entity. Women with infertility and past abdomino-pelvic surgery, MR, abortion are particularly at risk. Early diagnosis and intervention can reduce the mortality and morbidity of women having EP.

Background: Management of ectopic pregnancy is very crucial issue for the survival of the patients. Objective: The purpose of the present study was to observe the surgical management and per-operative findings of women with ectopic pregnancy. Methodology: This cross-sectional study was carried out in the inpatient Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Bangladesh Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh from January 2009 to December 2009 for a period of one (1) year. All clinically suspected cases of ectopic pregnancy within the reproductive age admitted in the department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the Bangladesh Medical College Hospital, Dhaka were included in the present study. In most of the cases, laparoscopy or laparotomy was done to confirm the diagnosis and manage the cases. Result: A total number of 48 cases of ectopic pregnancy women were recruited for this study. The highest number of ectopic pregnancy occurs in the ampulla of the fallopian tube which was 27(58.3%) cases. The right tube had been found to be affected more than the left which was 30(62.5%) cases and 18(37.5%) cases respectively. Most of the patients were presented with ruptured tubal pregnancy which was 30(62.5%) cases. Opposite tube was normal looking in 25(52.1%) cases. Unilateral salpingectomy and salpingectomy with contra lateral tubectomy were operated in 32(66.7%) cases and 10(20.8%) cases respectively. Conclusion: In conclusion most of the ectopic pregnancy is occurred in the site of ampulla of fallopian tube in right side which are mostly surgically managed by unilateral salpingectomy.

This prospective interventional study was carried out on 40 intrapartum jaundice patients admitted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Dhaka Medical College Hospital during January to December 2004. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of prophylactic intrauterine hydrostatic balloon/condom temponade in addition to other conventional methods to prevent and control postpartum haemorrhage in patients with jaundice, to detect the prevalence of different etiological agents responsible for jaundice and to assess the foeto-maternal outcome in this study group. Prophylactic intrauterine hydrostatic balloon temponade was inserted in all of the 40 cases which showed an excellent effectiveness in preventing postpartum haemorrhage in patients with jaundice. The study also showed increased prevalence of Hepatitis E virus (HEV) and a high proportion of perinatal deaths in the study population.

A prospective study was done in the Department of Obstetric and Gynecology, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka from the January 2007 to June 2007. For the study 50 patients with uncomplicated prolonged pregnancy admitted during the study period were selected fulfilling the inclusion and the exclusion criteria. The study was conducted to evaluate the outcome of induction in prolonged pregnancy. From this study it was found that routine induction of labour at 41 to 42 weeks may be beneficial rather than continuing the pregnancy to have spontaneous labour which may increase the per perinatal mortality and morbidity. It was also found that due to routine induction of labour in prolonged pregnancy, vaginal delivery rate is more than caesarean section in multigravida than primigravida. Regarding the cause of failure of induction of labour it was found that the main causes are foetal distress and abnormal uterine action. The present study has proved that the use of Prostaglandin for cervical ripening, the delivery outcome can be improved. The study also showed that indiction of labour is not associated with any major intraprtum and postpartum foetal and maternal complication.Medicine Today 2014 Vol.26(2): 100-103

It was a prospective study carried out of all cases of haematemesis and or melaena at Rajshahi Medical College Hospital between December 2004 and March 2005 and determined demographic profile, clinical presentation, cause and outcome of upper gastrointestinal bleeding in a tertiary hospital of Bangladesh. Fifty adult patients presenting with haematemesis and or melaena admitted consecutively into medical units were evaluated through proper history taking, thorough clinical examination, endoscopic examination within 48 hours of first presentation and other related investigations. Patients who were not stabilized haemodynamically within 48 hours of resuscitation and endoscopy could not be done within that period were excluded from this study. Out of 50 patients 44 were male and 6 were female and average age of the patients was 39.9 years. Most of the patients belonged to low socio-economic condition- Farmers (22%), Service holder (18%), Laborers (l6%), Students (l4%), Businessman (8%), House wife (4%) and others (l8%). Farmers, service holders and laborers were the most affected group (57%). Among the patients monthly income (Tk) was > 20000/= (2%), 15000-20000/= (8%), 8000-15000 /= (10%) and 0-8000/= (80%). Haematemesis and melaena (42%), melaena (42%), Haematemesis (16%) were the presenting features. Endoscopy revealed that duodenal ulcer (34%) was the most common cause of upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding followed by rupture of portal varices (16%), neoplasm (10%), gastric ulcer (08%) and gastric erosion ( 06%). Peptic ulcer disease still remains as the major cause of upper (GI) haemorrhage though cases of ruptured oesophageal varices are gradually increasing.

Bleeding of extradural space is called extradural haematoma. This was a prospective study. In this study included 30 patients of extradural haematoma. Mean age of patients was 29 ±15year. 26(83.3%) of patients were male and 5(16.6%) of patients were female. Commonest cause of haematoma were road traffique accidents. Among them 28(93.3%) patients were treated by surgical procedure and 2(6.6%) were treated by conservative procedure. After surgery among the 30 patients 26(83.3%). patients were fully recovered. Postoperatively two patients recovered with disabilities (one had visual field defect and one had Psychological disturbance). Two patients (6.6%) died on 3rd and 6th post operative day respectively due to aspiration pneumonia. Mortality and morbidity were more among those who were operated after 48 hours of occurrence. So, this study concluded that the early surgery is more life saving than the late surgery. doi: 10.3329/taj.v20i2.3075 TAJ 2007; 20(2): 136-139
