Introduction: Hydatid disease is a significant health problem with their location at Extrahepatic Intra abdominal sites is a very rare disease. Disease in these sites usually found concurrently with liver hydatid disease. Diagnosis is based blood tests & imaging studies. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment. This study will help us in determining the frequency of Extra Hepatic Intra Abdominal Hydatid Disease. Also different methods to diagnose & treat the disease will be evaluated.
Methods: It includes patients of extra hepatic intra abdominal Hydatid cyst above 13 years and underwent surgery from 2009 to 2014. Variables include age, sex, clinical findings, diagnostic investigations, operative findings, operative procedure, post operative complications.
Results: Eleven patients; 07 male & 04 female; mean age 37.54 years. Most common symptoms were mass in abdomen in 11 patients & dull pain abdomen in 09 (81.8%) patients. Examination revealed non tender mass in epigastric & umbilical region in 04 (36.3%) patients. Ultrasound Abdomen showed hydatid cyst spleen in 02 (18.1%) patients, epigastrium in 04 (36.3%) patients, beneath left crus of diaphragm in 02 (18.1%) patients & right iliac fossa & pelvis in 1 (9.09%) patient. In 02 (18.1%) patients multiple Hydatid cysts were noted. Hydatid cysts liver found in 07 (63.6%) patients. C.T scan Abdomen was performed in 09 (81.8%) patients. Surgical procedures performed include Saucerization & omental packing in liver Hydatid cysts; Splenectomy for Splenic disease & complete excision of remaining intra-abdominal Hydatid cysts. Postoperative complications noted in 05 (45.4%) patients.
Conclusion: Extra hepatic intra abdominal is an infrequent disease presents significant diagnostic & therapeutic challenge for surgeons.

Background: Adult-type granulosa cell tumors are a rare form of ovarian cancer, 30% of which will recur. Cytoreductive surgery is often performed at the time of a first recurrence, but little is known about the impact of open versus minimally invasive surgical approaches on survival outcomes.
Objective: To examine associations between surgical approach, clinical variables, and survival outcomes among patients with adult-type granulosa cell tumors who underwent cytoreductive surgery at the time of first recurrence.

Introduction: Perinatal management of gastroschisis remains a subject of substantial research. Current models, including teratogenic, genetic, and surgical approaches, often fail to accurately replicate gastroschisis, exhibiting limitations such as inaccurate phenotyping, low success rates, high mortality, lack of scientific validation, and significant technical challenges. Refined disease models are essential for improving the understanding of GS.
