A Randomised Controlled Trial Comparing Intratympanic Gentamicin with Methylprednisolone in Meniere's Disease with Good Hearing.

Unlabelled: A randomized prospective parallel group trial was done to compare the efficacy of intratympanic low dose gentamicin with methylprednisolone in treating intractable unilateral Meniere's disease with serviceable hearing.

Study Design: Randomised prospective parallel group trial.

Setting: Tertiary care centre in South India.

Decreased femur tunnel widening after augmented suspensory fixation compared to suspensory fixation for single bundle hamstring ACL reconstruction.

Background: Tunnel widening after Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using a hamstring graft is known to occur at follow-up. Our study aimed to investigate the effect of suspensory fixation augmentation using an interference screw on tunnel widening in single-bundle hamstring ACL reconstruction.

Methods: 48 patients who had single bundle ACL reconstruction with femoral fixed loop fixation technique in 15 knees, and, fixed loop with augmented aperture (bio screw) fixation in 33 knees were analyzed.

Thyroglossal Duct Cyst Carcinoma: Lessons from a 20-Case Series.

Aims And Objectives: Thyroglossal duct cyst (TDC) is a common congenital cyst with an incidence of about 7%. Thyroglossal duct cyst carcinoma (TDCC) is a rare sequel which arises from TDC and has an incidence of about 1%. As these are rare, they do not have well-defined management guidelines.

The clinico pathological features and survival in serous endometrial cancers.

Background & Introduction: Serous cancers are a biologically aggressive variety of endometrial cancer (EC) with a high rate of recurrence and mortality among all the subtypes. Herein we describe our experience with serous endometrial cancer.

Objective: This study was conducted to identify the clinicopathological characteristics, treatment modalities and survival outcomes in women diagnosed with serous endometrial malignancies.

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on Vascular Surgery Unit activity in Central Romania.

The COVID-19 outbreak has placed substantial pressure on the medical systems worldwide. This study aimed to investigate the influence of the prepandemic vs. pandemic period on the activity of the Vascular Surgery Unit of a large emergency hospital in Eastern Europe.

Perinatal Outcomes Using Ejaculate versus Surgical Sperm Retrieval in Patients Undergoing Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection for Male Infertility - A Retrospective Analysis of 628 Cycles.

Background: Men with azoospermia undergoing a surgical sperm retrieval are anxious about the well-being of the baby. It is therefore important to study the perinatal outcomes in this group compared to the ejaculate sample group.

Aim: The aim of the study was to compare the perinatal outcomes between ejaculate and surgical sperm retrieval (SSR) groups in couples undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection for male factor.

Focused Parathyroidectomy Under Local Anesthesia - A Feasibility Study.

Purpose: We conducted this study to evaluate the feasibility, patient satisfaction, and cost of performing focused parathyroidectomy under local anesthesia (LA) and mild sedation, administered and monitored by a surgeon.

Materials And Methods: This was a prospective observational study of 30 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) undergoing a focused parathyroidectomy under LA and mild sedation at a single institution. The clinical features, gland weight, operating time, procedure time, postoperative pain scores, overall patient satisfaction, postoperative nausea and vomiting, analgesic requirements, complications, cost, and cure rates were documented.

Comparison of Reverse Sural Artery Flap Healing for Traumatic Injuries Above and Below the Ankle Joint.

The reverse sural artery (RSA) flap is popular among trauma surgeons to cover the distal third of the leg to the foot. However, flaps that inset in the foot seem to have a high necrosis rate. This study compared the healing of RSA flaps performed for defects proximal to the ankle versus defects distal to the ankle.

Study to Evaluate the Changes in Polycystic Ovarian Morphology after Naturopathic and Yogic Interventions.

Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the commonest endocrine disorders in women, with a prevalence ranging from 2.2% to 26% in India. Patients with PCOS face challenges including irregular menstrual cycles, hirsutism, acne, acanthosis nigricans, obesity and infertility.

Spectrum of pulmonary valve morphology and its relationship to pulmonary trunk in tetralogy of Fallot.

Background: Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is a complex congenital heart disease with anatomic variations. Although the pulmonary valve in TOF is abnormal, it has not been studied well, especially on newer imaging modalities such as multidetector computed tomography (CT), which gives excellent anatomic detail.

Aims: The aim of this study was to assess the morphology of pulmonary valve in TOF on CT and evaluate its association with the degree of hypoplasia of infundibulum and pulmonary trunk.
