Intraspinal periosteal chondroma in upper thoracic spine causing cord compression and myelopathy: A case report.

Introduction: Chondromas are slow-growing cartilage-forming benign tumors, rarely occurring in the spine. Generally, most spinal chondromas are asymptomatic; however, with slow progressive growth, these lesions may enlarge and expand and cause compressive neurological symptoms, resulting in radiculopathy or more commonly myelopathy due to direct neural compression.

Presentation Of Case: A 15-year-old male adolescent presented to Emergency Department with history of fall (slippage) on concrete ground while playing three months back.

Clinical Specimens are the Pool of Multidrug- resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Harbouring oprL and toxA Virulence Genes: Findings from a Tertiary Hospital of Nepal.

The multidrug- or extensively drug-resistant (MDR/XDR) carrying some virulence genes has become a global public health threat. However, in Nepal, there is no existing report showing the prevalence of and virulence genes among the clinical isolates of . .

Temporal Delay in Neurosurgical Patients and Outcome in a Tertiary Care Center in Nepal.

Background: Neurosurgery is a field where time from the incident to get treatment is very crucial. In low-income countries, the referral system is not well developed. In our country, a proper referral system is in the initial phase of development.

Arsenic disturbs the gut microbiome of individuals in a disadvantaged community in Nepal.

Arsenic is ubiquitous in nature, highly toxic, and is particularly abundant in Southern Asia. While many studies have focused on areas like Bangladesh and West Bengal, India, disadvantaged regions within Nepal have also suffered from arsenic contamination levels, with wells and other water sources possessing arsenic contamination over the recommended WHO and EPA limit of 10 μg/L, some wells reporting levels as high as 500 μg/L. Despite the region's pronounced arsenic concentrations within community water sources, few investigations have been conducted to understand the impact of arsenic contamination on host gut microbiota health.

Comparison of Nasal Colonization of Methicillin-Resistant in HIV-Infected and Non-HIV Patients Attending the National Public Health Laboratory of Central Nepal.

Background: is a cardinal source of community- and hospital-acquired infection. HIV infection is a well-recognized risk factor for methicillin-resistant (MRSA) carriage and infection. Intrinsically developed antibiotic resistance has sharply increased the burden of MRSA which is often associated with morbidity and mortality of the patients.

Use of viber app: a fast, easy and cost effective method of communication in neurosurgery.

Objective: Neurosurgeons often have to rely on judgments of junior staffs to decide on patients whom they cannot attend immediately. Viber is a free to use application for image transfer on Internet. We evaluated the use of viber in neurosurgical scenario, to show it is cheap, fast, accessible, reliable and feasible.
