Aim: To evaluate the outcome of subinguinal cremasteric disruption and venous ligation for the treatment of varicocele with regard to improvement in semen parameters, recurrence hydrocele formation and testicular atrophy. Methods: The clinical study was carried out from July 2016 to June 2019. Fifty-nine patients were included in the study. Varicocele repair was done as a day case surgery under local anesthesia using cremasteric disruption and venous ligation technique. The treatment outcomes studied were improvement in semen parameters and complications like recurrence, hydrocele formation and testicular atrophy. Results: Seventy-four varicocelectomies were done in fifty-nine patients. Semen parameters improved in those nineteen patients who had abnormal semen parameters before surgery and nine out of these nineteen (47.36%) got their semen count normal after varicocele repair. There were five recurrences (6.75%). No hydrocele formation or testicular atrophy occurred during one year of follow up. Conclusion: Day case varicocelectomy by subinguinal cremasteric disruption and venous ligation is a simple, economical choice with minimal morbidity and comparable outcomes.

Abstract Introduction The aim of this audit was to determine the compliance with guidelines regarding patient selection for day-case surgeries in ENT. Method Data was collected retrospectively and included all patients who underwent elective ENT surgeries over a one-year period at an NHS hospital. Factors considered included nature of the operation, timing, surgeon’s preference, as well as social circumstances. Results Out of 1101 intended day cases, 113 (10%) had an unexpected overnight stay. The major factor contributing to these overnight stays was the timing of the operation, where 85 cases had undergone surgery in the afternoon. Other factors included drain siting, saturation monitoring, post-operative complications, and social circumstances. Tonsillectomy-related and nasal procedures formed the majority of the procedures, with 74 cases in total. Conclusions We concluded that most overnight stay cases included in this audit could have been prevented. Careful theatre list planning by prioritizing day cases for morning lists may reduce these numbers significantly. Co-morbidities and social aspects may need to be explored when booking patients for theatres.

The Mean

Thiopentone and propofol were used for the induction and maintenance of anaesthesia in unpremedicated patients undergoing minor gynaecological procedures. There were no significant differences in the induction and maintenance characteristics except for a high incidence of pain on injection and a greater fall in the mean systolic blood pressure associated with propofol in comparison with thiopentone. Propofol was associated with a quicker early recovery as well as a faster psychomotor recovery, as tested by a peg-board. However, complete psychomotor recovery was not achieved for up to three hours in some patients receiving propofol and so caution is advised regarding the early street fitness of patients receiving repeated doses of the drug for day case surgery.

AbstractObjective:The safety of day-case tonsillectomy is widely documented in the literature; however, there are no evidence-based guidelines recommending patient characteristics that are incompatible with day-case tonsillectomy. This study aimed to identify which patients should be considered unsafe for day-case tonsillectomy based on the likelihood of needing critical intervention.Method:Retrospective review of 2863 tonsillectomy procedures performed at University Hospital Geelong from 1998 to 2014.Results:Of the patients, 7.81 per cent suffered a post-tonsillectomy complication and 4.15 per cent required intervention. The most serious complications, haemorrhage requiring a return to the operating theatre and airway compromise, occurred in 0.56 per cent and 0.11 per cent of patients respectively. The following patient characteristics were significantly associated with poorer outcomes: age of two years or less (p < 0.01), tonsillectomy indicated for neoplasm (p < 0.01) and quinsy (p < 0.05).Conclusion:The authors believe that all elective tonsillectomy patients should be considered for day-case surgery, with the following criteria necessitating overnight observation: age of two years or less; an indication for tonsillectomy of neoplasm or quinsy; and an American Society of Anesthesia score of more than 2.
