Bartter Syndrome is a rare congenital disease that manifests as hypokalemia, hyponatremia and hypotension. The disease occurs due to defective genes that are responsible for the reabsorption of certain electrolytes in the renal tubules. Hence it results in salt-wasting dyselectrolytemia. By its inheritable nature, the usual presentation of the disease is in the infants and children. But this case report presents an adult with symptoms of Bartter Syndrome which was discovered by chance while the patient was being treated for Acute gastroenteritis. Adult onset of Bartter Syndrome is incredibly rare and has been reported only in few other cases.

The key to success in patients with difficult airway is effective airway assessment and meticulous planning. Making use of simple and time-tested equipment and modifying these methods accordingly enable successful airway control avoiding perioperative morbidity and mortality . We report a case of 75 year old male with posterior urethral stricture planned for perineal urethroplasty with anticipated difficult airway. The airway was managed using video laryngoscopy and the procedure was uneventful with good postoperative recovery. This case report insists on making use of other conventional methods in the effective management of an anticipated difficult airway during a pandemic.

This case report shows its effective management while still continuing treatment, thus leading to the desired result. It emphasizes on the importance of maintaining a balance between the benefits and risks of a treatment.

Introduction Cut throat injuries are well recognized in homicide but less recognized in suicides. The incidence of suicide is increasing worldwide owing to the more stressful strenuous lifestyle and other risk factors like substance abuse. Suicide by incising one’s own throat is associated with hesitation marks whereas homicidal wounds are not. Case Report We present an interesting case of a suicidal cut throat of the victim being a butcher who was on alcohol abstinence since 3 days with severe injuries of supraglottic larynx and cricopharynx, surprisingly without any evidence of hesitation marks. He underwent immediate neck exploration and suturing of the injured structures without the need of a tracheostomy. Discussion A multidisciplinary approach by Otolaryngologists, Psychiatrists, Intensivists, and Anaesthetists is required in the effective management of these victims. A thorough proper early assessment can totally avoid the need of tracheostomy which is recommended in practice, hence preventing complications arising out of this unnecessary but advocated procedure.
