Objective: To evaluate the indications of primary cesarean section in multipara and to assess the obstetric outcome including maternal, fetal morbidity and mortality, perinatal outcome. Study Design and Setting: It was a hospital based study of primary caesarean sections (CS) done on multiparous patients in duration of two years between January 1, 2016, and December 2017 at Jinnah medical college hospital Karachi. Methodology: Multiparous patients were those who had delivered through vaginal route one or more times (i.e. 28 weeks of gestation or above) or had 1–4children and grand-multiparous are those who had 5 or more children. All the cases included in the study were hospital based and cesarean section was decided by specialist. The procedure was performed by registrars and specialists. The selected patients were followed up till they were discharge from the ward with minimum hospital stay of three days. Data was compiled and results were carried out by SPSS version 23. Results: During the two years of study period, the number of total deliveries were 2064. The primary CS rate in multipara was 37.17%. These women have more likely to have an emergency cessarean sections compared to elective i.e. 85% and15%. The mean age of women was 29.5 years, booked cases were 72.5% and unbooked were 27.5%. Regarding indications for cesarean sections, non-progress of labour ranked first 25.5% followed by fetal distress 20%, pre eclampsia 12 % and ante partum hemorrhage 10.5% etc. Increase incidence of morbidity and mortality was seen in patients undergoing cesarean section due to different reasons. Conclusion: Primary caesarean sections in multipara comprise only a small percentage (37.17%) of total deliveries but were related to high maternal and fetal morbidity

Introduction: Gandaki Medical College Teaching Hospital is providing specialized obstetrician and gynecologist services since last one decade.Objectives: This study was conducted to know the prevalence and outcome of cesarean section at Gandaki Medical College Teaching Hospital and Research Centre during 2013 – 2015 A.D. (2070 – 2072 B.S.).Methods: It was a retrospective study of women undergoing cesarean section from 2013 to 2015 A.D. (2070 – 2072 B.S.).Results: During the period of three years 2013 – 2015 A.D. (2070 –2072 B.S.) otal deliveries were 2627. Among total deliveries cesarean section was performed in 1084 patients (41.26%). In 1084 patients 803 (74%) cesarean sections were performed as an emergency and 281(26%) were elective. In this study 15 to more than 35 years old patients were enrolled. Among cesarean sections done, 52% were primigravida, 46% were para and 2% were grandmulti. The indications for cesarean section were CPD (28%), fetal distress (25%), previous cesarean (14%), mal presentation (7%), premature rupture of membrane (5%), pre-eclampsia (6%), failed induction (5%), bad obstetric history (2%), antepartum hemorrhage (1%), and twins (1%).Conclusion: This study at Gandaki Medical College Teaching Hospital and Research Centre provided the prevalence, outcome and different indications of cesarean section which is life saving for both mother and newborn. And also the study can be useful to the hospital to improve facilities for safe motherhood and safety of newborn.Journal of Gandaki Medical CollegeVolume, 09, Number 2, July December  2016, Page: 1-6

Background: Chest trauma is responsible for 50% of deaths due to trauma. This kind of death usually occurs immediately after the trauma has occurred. Various therapeutic options have been reported for management of chest injuries like clinical observation, thoracocentesis, tube thoracostomy and open thoracotomy. Objective: To observe the pattern and outcome of management in chest trauma Methods: This is an observational study carried out in Casualty department of Chittagong Medical College Hospital (CMCH), Chittagong, between April 2015 to March 2016. Our study was included all patients, both sexes, following chest injury at Casualty units of Chittagong Medical College Hospital. All the data were recorded through the preformed data collection sheet and analyzed. Result: The mean age was found 37.7±18.1 years with range from 12 to 80 years. Male female ratio was 11.8:1. The mean time elapsed after trauma was found 6.1±3.1 hours with range from 1 to 72 hours. Almost one third (35.7%) patients was affecting road traffic accident followed by 42(27.3%) assault, 35(22.7%) stab injury, 15(9.7%) fall and 7(4.5%) gun shot . More than three fourth (80.5%) patients were managed by tube thoracostomy followed by 28(18.2%) observation and 2(1.3%) ventilatory support. No thoracotomy was done in emergency department. 42(27.2%) patients was found open pneumothorax followed by 41(26.6%) rib fracture, 31(20.1%) haemopneumothorax, 14(9%) simple pneumothorax, 12(7.8%) haemothorax, 6(3.9%) chest wall injury, 5(3.2%) tension pneumothorax, and 3(1.9%) flail chest. About the side of tube 60(39.0%) patients were given tube on left side followed by 57(37.0%) patients on right side, 9(5.8%) patients on both (left & right) side and 28(18.2%) patients needed no tube. Regarding the complications, 13(30%) patients had persistent haemothorax followed by 12(29%)tubes were placed outside triangle of safety, 6(13.9%) tubes were kinked, 6(13.9%) patients developed port side infection, 2(4.5%)tube was placed too shallow, 2(4.5%) patients developed empyema thoracis and 2(4.5%) patients developed bronchopleural fistula. The mean ICT removal information was found 8.8±3.6 days with range from 4 to 18 days. Reinsertion of ICT was done in 6(4.7%) patients. More than two third (68.2%) patients were recovered well, 43(27.9%) patients developed complication and 6(3.9%)patients died. More than two third (66.9%) patients had length of hospital stay 11-20 days. Conclusion: Most of the patients were in 3rd decade and male predominant. Road traffic accident and tube thoracostomy were more common. Open pneumothorax, rib fracture and haemopneumothorax were commonest injuries. Nearly one third of the patients had developed complications. Re-insertion of ICT needed almost five percent and death almost four percent. Journal of Surgical Sciences (2018) Vol. 22 (2) : 110-117

Objective: To analyze trends of CSs and evaluating them according to Robson’s Ten Groups Classification System (TGCS) at a leading government tertiary care hospital of South Punjab, Pakistan. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Nishtar Medical University Hospital, Multan Pakistan, from October 2019 to March 2020.The study population included a total of 167 women who underwent CS in the hospital during the specified study period. For each case, we collected data regarding maternal characteristics and pregnancy-related information. The dependent variable was Robson classification group. Results: Overall, mean age was 26.53+5.1 years. Majority of the women, 116 (69.5%) belonged to urban areas of residence, 74 (44.3%) gestational aged between 37-42 years while 108 (64.7%) had history of cesarean section. Most of the patients, 85 (50.9%) turned out to be from TGCS Group-10. Group-5 and Group-1 were the 2nd and 3rd most common group, accounted for 24 (14.4%) and 19 (11.4%) cases respectively. Previous cesarean section (20.4%) and fetal distress (19.8%) were found to be most common indications leading to cesarean section. Conclusion: As per Robson’s Ten-Group Classification, Group-10 and Group-5 were found to be the most contributing among deliveries done. Previous cesarean section and fetal distress were the most common indications of cesarean section. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.37.2.3823 How to cite this:Parveen R, Khakwani M, Naz A, Bhatti R.

Cataract surgery is no more a blind rehabilitation surgery, it absolutely gives normal vision. In the era of modern cataract surgery patients expectations are also high about visual outcome. This prospective study was carried out to investigate the magnitude and pattern of pre-existing corneal astigmatism in age related cataract patient at Faridpur Medical College Hospital, Faridpur and Agha Yusuf Adhunik Hospital, Kustia, from July 2009 to June 2012. We examined 850 eyes of 730 patients who underwent cataract surgery. The mean age at the time of surgery was 61.9±8.1 (40 to 70) years. Corneal astigmatism was measured by Auto Refracto Keratometer at least two times for each patient. Astigmatism was calculated from diopteric difference of vertical reading from horizontal reading. With the rule (WTR) astigmatism was considered when steep meridian at 90°± 20°. Against the rule (ATR) astigmatism was considered when steep meridian at 180°±20°. Astigmatism is in other direction is defined as oblique. On keratometry, when vertical reading (k1) was found greater than horizontal (k2) was considered WTR astigmatism and the reverse reading for ATR astigmatism. The percentage of corneal astigmatism was 1D or less was 69.6%, more than 1D and less than 1.5D, 27.6% and more than 1.5D and less then 2D 2.8%. Prevalence of ATR astigmatism was more than WTR astigmatism and prevalence of ATR astigmatism increases significantly with age. Approximately two third of pre-operative patient had 1D or less astigmatism and one third had more than 1D corneal astigmatism. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/fmcj.v8i1.16887 Faridpur Med. Coll.

Background: Vesico-vaginal fistula can occur in different women with varied socio-economic condition. Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to see the socio-demographic characteristics of vesico-vaginal fistula (VVF) patients attended at a tertiary care hospital in Bangladesh. Methodology: This cross-sectional study was carried out from July 2013 to December 2013 for a period of 6 months in the National Fistula Centre in the Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology at Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH), Dhaka, Bangladesh. All patients who underwent surgical repair for iatrogenic VVF in National Fistula Centre of the department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of Dhaka Medical College Hospital were included in this study. Patients who got themselves admitted to Obstetrics & Gynaecology department of DMCH with the complaints of fistula. The entire selected patients were interviewed for detailed socio-demographic characteristics. Result: A total number of 51 cases of VVF were recruited for this study. The mean age was 46.02 (±SD 6.104) years. Most of the respondents were illiterate (55.0%) and one-third patients had primary level education. The number of highly educated patients was scarce (12.0%). It was evident that average age at marriage of the patients was 15.8(±4.74) years. Some females were forced to accept marriage at the age of 10 years. The mean interval between initiation of menstruation and the marriage was only 4.72 years. Mothers were on an average 17.48 years old at the time of first delivery. Conclusion: In conclusion middle age illiterate women are most commonly suffering from VVF.

Purpose: To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, therapy options, and outcomes of retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma.Methods: In this retrospective study, we collected and analyzed the clinical data of 32 patients diagnosed with retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma and admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from October 2012 to August 2019.Results: Among our 32 cases with retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma, the male-to-female ratio was 1:3 and the mean age was 35. Only 25% of the cases presented with abdominal pain while more than 65% had no specific symptoms. The masses could be found through physical examination in only five patients. Most of the tumors are located near the renal area. They were usually single and displayed an embedded growth pattern with diameters <10 cm, clear borders, and soft texture. For radiological imaging, the majority of tumors demonstrated soft tissue density with mild-to-moderate enhancement on CT imaging and showed hypoecho with moderate blood flow signals in ultrasound. No significantly abnormal laboratory examinations were found in most patients. Of all the 32 patients, 2 chose surveillance after biopsy due to difficulties in operation, while others chose surgical resection. The mean follow-up time was 15.8 months among 26 patients. The tumor remained stable in the surveillance cases. Residual tumors were found in four cases receiving operations with no progress and discomfort. No recurrence was seen in all patients.Conclusions: The retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma is a benign tumor without specific clinical manifestations or significant laboratory findings. Typically, it is shown as low density with a clear border and an embedded growth pattern in radiological imaging. The overall prognosis is good. Surgery is an effective approach with possible severe complications. Incomplete resection or surveillance can be considered for some cases where complete resection is difficult to achieve.

The objective: was to study the level of abdominal delivery, its structure according to indications from the fetus, the effect of cesarean sections on perinatal losses in acute fetal hypoxia. Patients and methods. The study was conducted on the basis of the Kyiv City Maternity Hospital №1 for the period from 2001 to 2011. The frequency of cesarean sections was studied and analyzed, the percentage of urgent and planned operations was established, the structure of cesarean sections according to the indications from the fetus was determined, the frequency of cesarean sections in acute hypoxia Fetus, perinatal losses were studied, an analysis of the dependence of perinatal losses on the frequency of cesarean sections during fetal distress was carried out. The analysis used the history of delivery of women giving birth, which culminated in cesarean section. Results. In analyzing the structure of cesarean sections, the fetal indications are as follows: fetal hypoxia, confirmed by objective methods, in the absence of conditions for urgent delivery per vias naturales; Pelvic presentation of the fetus at a mass of more than 3700 g; in vitro fertilization; incorrect position of the fetus after the outflow of amniotic fluid. The conclusion. An increase in the frequency of cesarean sections was noted. Attention is drawn to the positive trend of decreasing the frequency of urgent surgical interventions. The expected decrease in the number of perinatal losses with an increase in the level of caesarean sections due to fetal distress has not been confirmed. Key words: cesarean section, acute fetal hypoxia, cardiotocographic monitoring.

Background: A laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a fundamental approach to treating acute cholecystitis, and the timing of performing this given treatment is associated with clinical outcomes. It is unknown whether surgical indication, risk, and consequences of laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis differ from those for the chronic form, making it questionable whether urgent laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the best approach even in severe acute cases. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate surgical indication, risk, and outcomes of laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis. Methods: This prospective observational study was carried out at Bangladesh Medical College Hospital (Uttara Campus) from July 2006 to November 2008. A total of 103 acute cholecystitis patients were observed to evaluate the safety, risk, and outcomes (includes hospital stay, joining to routine daily works) of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Result: Male and female ratio is 1:4, and the mean age in our series is 47 years. Acute calculas cholecystitis ultra-sonogram feature shows the highest percentage (85.4%) compare to the other four parts. The study also confirmations around 69% did not get any complications, and bleeding was the most frequently observed (16%) complication. The overall outcomes in this research were observed around 75% of total operated patients did not experience any difficulty and said they fit entirely. The other 19% who had some complications include Pain, RTI, Seroma, Jaundice, Cholangitis, Wound infection). Conclusion: Regarding bile duct injury and prolonged complications, laparoscopic surgery is not a very good treatment option for acute cholecystitis.

Background: Few studies have assessed the relation of hyperuricacidemia with the acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study investigated the association between high uric acid levels with the presence and severity of ACS.  Methods: Three hundred and seventy patients having angiographic evidence of atherosclerosis (CAD + case group) compared to 170 patients with no luminal stenosis (n=110) or with <50% luminal stenosis (n=60) at coronary angiography (CAD – control group). Results: The mean age of the patients was 60 ± 10 years (317 men, 58.7%). Hyperuricacidemia was more likely associated with a trend toward higher vessel scores, indicating a more severe CAD (adjusted OR=1.51, 95% CI=1.09-2.09; P=0.005) in the whole population. A comparison of sex-specific values showed a significant association existed only in men. Conclusions: Asymptomatic hyperuricacidemia may be associated with the presence and severity of ACS. Keywords: Hyperuricacidemia, Severity & Acute Coronary Syndrome.
