Background: Hydrocele is one of the commonest diseases occurring worldwide. Since olden days surgical procedures have been described for the treatment of hydrocele. Aim of the study was to analyse the clinical profile, diagnosis and surgical management of primary vaginal hydrocele in adults (>12 years)Methods: A prospective study of 60 male patients of age range of more than 12 years with a history of scrotal swellings were studied for their clinical profiles, diagnosis and management. The study was carried out in Government Medical College, Miraj, Maharashtra, India from November 2010 to November 2012. In the present study Jaboulay's Procedure was performed on 48 patients and Lord's Procedure was performed on 12 patients.Results: The data was collected and results were analysed. Post-operatively about 1.6% of patients developed hematoma, 5% developed wound infection, 21.66% of the patients developed skin oedema and only 1 patient i.e 1.6 % had recurrence over a period of 2 years of follow up. Out of the total 60 patients,12 patients who underwent Lord's plication 8.33%,0%,0% developed skin oedema, hematoma and wound infection respectively as compared to 25%,2.08%,6.25% in the remaining 48 patients who underwent Jaboulay's procedure, respectively.Conclusions: These two surgical procedures were very safe, easy to perform and economical and associated with minimal recurrence. Lord's procedure has lesser incidence of post-operative complications as compared to Jaboulay's procedure.
With the inventions of faster cars and even more faster motorbikes there is a worldwide increase in road traffic accidents, which has increased the incidence of blunt abdominal trauma but still duodenal injury following a blunt abdominal trauma is uncommon and can pose a formidable challenge to the surgeon and failure to manage it properly can result in devastating results. It may typically occur in isolation or with pancreatic injury. Here, we report a case of an isolated transection of the third part of the duodenum with normal pancreas following a blunt abdominal trauma. The initial clinical changes in isolated duodenal injury may be extremely subtle before life-threatening, peritonitis develops. Hence, a high index of suspicion, on the basis of mechanism of injury and physical examination is the key in early detection of duodenal injury especially in a rural hospital like ours where the facilities for computed tomography scan are not available.
Background: Neck dissection forms integral part in the radical treatment of carcinoma of the oral cavity. In this study, we have examined usefulness of the single drop neck incision.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
