Efficacy of near-infrared fluorescence cholangiography using indocyanine green in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: A retrospective study.

Context: While laparoscopy has been the standard procedure for gallstone treatment, recent advances including the use of indocyanine green (ICG) in laparoscopic cholecystectomy have made it easier to understand the biliary tree and reduce the risk of bile duct injury.

Aims: In this retrospective study, we aim to determine the efficacy of ICG in near-infrared fluorescence cholangiography (NIRFC) for visualising biliary anatomy.

Settings And Design: A total of 90 patients with the symptoms of cholelithiasis were enrolled for this retrospective study.

Longest gallbladder: A case report.

Introduction: A gallbladder mucocele is the distention of the gallbladder by an inappropriate accumulation of mucus. Decreased bile flow, decreased gallbladder motility, and altered absorption of water from the gallbladder lumen are predisposing factors to biliary sludge. However, it is more likely to be a small part of a complex disease process involving inflammation of the gallbladder wall and changes to the lining of the gallbladder changing the consistency of its secretions.

Our experience with surgery in situs inversus: Open peptic perforation repair and laparoscopic cholecystectomy in 1 patient and 3 patients respectively.

Introduction: Situs inversus is a rare autosomal recessive condition associated with complete transposition of abdominal+/- thoracic organs. Surgical diagnosis and surgical procedures in patients with situs inversus is tricky because of the mirror image anatomy of intra-abdominal organs.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of 2152 and 1497 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy and open peptic perforation repair respectively from June 2014-June 2016 was done.

Primary hydatid cyst of pancreas: Case report and review of literature.

Introduction: Hydatid disease is caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. It most commonly affects the liver and lung. Pancreatic hydatid cyst (PHC) is very rare with incidence of 0.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a 2 year old male child with choleilithiasis and recurrent right hypochondrial pain: Case report and review of literature.

Introduction: Gallstone disease has been considered an uncommon entity in children and infants, but its incidence is reportedly increasing which may be attributed to widespread use of diagnostic imaging (ultrasonography).

Presentation Of Case: An apparently healthy 2 year old male child presented to our Outpatient department with chief complaint of recurrent abdominal pain. The episodes of pain were acute in onset and associated with vomiting.

Management of presacral tumors: Our experience with posterior approach.

Introduction: Presacral tumors are a rare variety of space occupying lesions arising in the presacral space. Most of the tumors are congenital in origin. Due to obscure anatomic location, difficult surgical approach and etiological heterogeneity, tumors arising here pose a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge.

Malroatation of gut with superior mesenteric artery syndrome and multiple jejunal diverticula presenting as acute intestinal obstruction in 6th decade: A rare case report.

Introduction: Intestinal malrotation is a disease of neonates and young children presenting as acute intestinal obstruction. Presentation of malrotation in elderly patients with intestinal obstruction is quite rare with only a few cases reported in literature. We report a case of intestinal malrotation presenting as acute obstruction in sixth decade.

Volvulus of ileal S-pouch: A rare complication of ileal pouch anal anastomoses.

Introduction: Ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) after total proctocolectomy is a frequently performed surgery for medically refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). Volvulus of the ileal pouch as a complication of IPAA is extremely rare. We present a case of volvulus of S-type ileal pouch.

Effectiveness of plain radiography in diagnosing hollow viscus perforation: study of 1,723 patients of perforation peritonitis.

Gastrointestinal perforations remain the most common cause of surgical pneumoperitoneum since time immemorial. The aim of this study was to find out the effectiveness of plain radiography in diagnosing hollow viscous perforation. A prospective analysis of a total of 1,723 patients of perforation peritonitis between January 2009 and June 2011, confirmed by exploratory laparotomy, was worked out in the study.
