Article Synopsis
- Primitive neuro-ectodermal tumor (PNET) is a rare and aggressive tumor mainly affecting children and young adults, with very few documented cases found in peripheral nerves.
- A 30-year-old male presented with symptoms leading to the discovery of a PNET in the axillary region, diagnosed through imaging and confirmed via histopathological analysis after surgical removal.
- Accurate diagnosis is essential, as treatment typically includes surgical resection combined with chemotherapy and radiotherapy, highlighting the need to consider PNET in differential diagnoses of masses in the axillary area.
Background And Aims: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are a severe complication in diabetes patients, often resulting in significant morbidity and mortality due to non-healing. This study investigated the effectiveness of 5% topical potassium permanganate on these ulcers.
Methods: A clinical trial was conducted on 23 patients with Wagner grade I and II DFU.
Introduction And Importance: Foreign body (FB) ingestion is a common challenge for pediatric health care providers globally. Although endoscopic approach for FB extraction is recommended, surgery remains life giving specifically in developing countries. We presented a novel surgical approach called 'Gilan maneuver' for removal of FB which lodged in duodenal loop.

The present study set out to compare the restoration of elbow flexion by using these two donor nerves.
Methods: Between 2010 and 2013, 24 adult patients with upper-middle BPI and 15 patients with total BPI undergoing elbow flexion restoration surgery were studied.
Multi-nodular goiter (MNG) is one of the commonest thyroid gland disease. Surgery is an important treatment option in the presence of indications. There are several alternative procedures for thyroid gland operation such as subtotal thyroidectomy (STT), near-total thyroidectomy (NTT), hemi-thyroidectomy plus subtotal resection (Dunhill procedure), and total thyroidectomy (TT), but the surgical procedure of choice is still under discussion.
