Early diagnosis is pivotal as surgical resection is the main stay of treatment. A 40-year-old female with typical bronchial carcinoid presented with complaints of breathlessness on mild to moderate exertion, intermittent productive cough, low-grade fever, and loss of appetite since 1 year.

However random blood glucose testing can help to diagnose diabetes at an early stage and is crucial for managing and preventing complications with diabetes. In order to improve the diagnosis, control, and treatment of Diabetes Mellitus, an appropriate approach of noninvasive random blood glucose is required for glucose monitoring.

The end-to-end internal iliac artery anastomosis can be associated with complications due to compromised distal vascular supply to limbs and penile erectile tissue. A method of end-to-side anastomosis can overcome them.
