Large amounts of wastewater are generated due to overpopulation and industrialization, The bioavailability, toxicity, and permanence of metals make heavy metal contamination a big environmental hazard. In order to maximize chromium (Cr) removal efficiency, the current investigation was carried out from industrial wastewater using .35 bacterial strains were discovered based on their physical, and biochemical properties and resistance towards chromium (Cr) heavy metal.

Recently, researchers have been searching for cost-effective and safe ways to remove heavy metals from polluted waterways using agricultural waste substitutes. The present study focused on the low-cost treatments for the reduction of chromium Cr metal from the effluent, wherein it has been found that chemically and bacterially treated agro-waste had increased heavy metal ion adsorption capabilities.

A rare site for such cavernomas, however, is the anterior optic pathway, comprising the optic nerve, chiasma, and optic tract-called optochiasmatic cavernomas (OCC). These lesions usually present with sudden onset or progressive vision loss, headache, and features mimicking pituitary apoplexy.

Case Presentation: We present a case of a 43-year female with right middle and posterior cranial fossa space occupying lesion (SOL) diagnosed as clear cell meningioma with presence of numerous tyrosine crystals.
Background: The number of government institutes offering affordable super specialty and tertiary healthcare in India has traditionally not been able to keep pace with the growth in population, most of whom are too poor to be able to afford private healthcare services. To meet this mandate, 6 new institutes built on the template of the premier institute of the country-the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi-were founded and began operations in 2012. Using the progress of our department as an example, the aim of this report is to outline the principles that were followed to set up the department of neurosurgery.
