Voice Restoration after Traumatic Subglottic Tracheal Stenosis.

Tracheal stenosis post intubation is one of the most common complication for which resection and anastomosis is done. Here we present a 21 year male patient who was intubated post organophosphorous poisoning. Diagnosed with tracheal stenosis post intubation and managed with tracheal resection and anastomosis with uneventful recovery.

Gastrojejunal stoma obstruction due to post-traumatic pancreatitis.

Gastrojejunostomy without gastric resection is performed to bypass the distal stomach or the duodenum. Gastrojejunal stoma (GJ) obstruction is an unusual complication. Pancreatic injuries are usually subtle to identify by different diagnostic imaging modalities or intraoperatively, as the classic features are absent during the first 24 h and even for several days.

Screening of antibacterial potentials of some medicinal plants from Melghat forest in India.

Cyperus rotundus, Caesalpinia bonducella, Tinospora cordifolia, Gardenia gummifera, Ailanthus excelsa, Acacia arabica, Embelia ribes and Ventilago maderspatana from Melghat forest were screened for their antibacterial potential against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus vulgaris, Salmonella typhi, Shigella flexneri, Salmonella paratyphi, Salmonella typhimurium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter aerogenes by disc diffusion method. Out of these medicinal plants Caesalpinia bonducella, Gardenia gummifera and Acacia arabica showed remarkable antibacterial potential. The phytochemical analysis had showed the presence of Cardiac glycosides in all extracts (aqueous, acetone, ethanol and methanol) of Acacia arabica, Gardenia gummifera and ethanol, methanol extracts of Caesalpinia bonducella.
