“…As per evidence of many randomized controlled trials (RCT) adjuvant chemotherapy is having promising role in a management of high grade gliomas (HGGs) in children. These studies also suggest very minimal efficacy of surgery and radiotherapy in reducing early deaths [13,14,15,16]. Our patient was not advised for surgery, chemotherapy or radiations.…”

Seven years female child came with parents who gave us history that 1month back, child during playing had fall on face and lost consciousness which remained for 30 min followed by convulsion. On examination patient was conscious, responds to command, vitals were stable, aphasia was present, pupils were equal and reactive to light bilaterally and horizontal gaze was restricted. There was no facial weakness, Tone increase more in left upper and lower limb .Deep tendon reflexes (DTR) increase in left side. Plantar reflex were extensors. MRI was done which shows intra axial space occupying lesion in brainstem with expansion of brainstem with hydrocephalus. Pt was inoperable and ventriculoperitoneal shunt was done for hydrocephalus. Post operatively patient was kept on assisted ventilation. Conclusion: Unusual presentation of brainstem gliomas as head injury.

“…Applying extra physiotherapy to patients after or immediately after radiotherapy facilitates full-scale use of the shoulder [17][18][19] Scar tissue and tendon expansion lowers the strong connection of the skin to the underlying tissue and decreases muscle shortening. The strength of the shoulder is also increased [16][17][18][19][20] Few of the related studies were reviewed ( [21][22][23][24][25][26]…”

Background: The most commonly identified cancer is breast cancer. In either the lobules or the breast ducts, the cancer normally grows. Infiltrating ductal carcinoma is the most common subtype. It may appear as a lump or mass; changes in the skin or nipple; breast rash or redness; or lymphadenopathy. Presenting Complains and Investigations: the patient presented with the complains of swelling and pain in the left breast in lower outer quadrant since 6 months, which was initially small in size and gradually increased and reached up this level 2x2 cm which placed in infra areolar region covering lower inner and outer quadrant. USG and cytology reports showed bilateral breast with axilla. Right breast was normal, enlarged lymph node in the right axilla measuring 15.2 x 4.6 mm with maintained hilum S/O reactive lymphadenopathy. In left breast there is E/O ill-defined taller than wider irregular hypoechoic lesion with spiculated margins, measuring approximately 15.9 x 12.4 mm in lower inner quadrant containing multiple foci of calcification within showing central vascularity OB doppler on elastography lesion is stiff, in left axilla there is E/O on enlarged USG lymph node present measuring 10.2 x 6.7 mm with maintained hilum S/O reactive lymphadenopathy. Impression of F/S/O malignant lesion in the left breast lymphadenopathy. Diagnosis: Left sided infiltrating ductal carcinoma. Therapeutic Intervention and Outcomes: Physical therapy intervention involved a variety of range of motion exercises, strengthening exercises, resistance conditioning, breathing exercises, lymphoedema treatment and scar management. This intensive outpatient program is a successful way to enhance the mobility of the shoulder and ROM during the initial 6-week treatment cycle after surgery. Shoulder range of motion was increased, patient was able to do basic activities of daily living like dressing, bathing, combing, etc. Edema was reduced. Conclusion: Shoulder stiffness after modified radical mastectomy is the commonest complication. Upper limb mobility exercises reduced the shoulder stiffness. Breathing exercises improved the respiration. Strengthening and general aerobic exercises helped the patient to get back on her normal routine.

“…Therefore, the mobility of the shoulder is enhanced [15]. Few of the related studies on carcinoma breast [16] and associated physiotherapy interventions [17][18][19] were reviewed. Beneficial effects of Ghrelin in cancer cachexia were reflected through a series of studies [20][21][22].…”

Introduction: Breast Cancer is responsible for 2.09 million cases and 6,27,000 deaths worldwide, as per WHO. In India, women have one of the most common cancer, accounting for 14 per cent of all women's cancers. Numerous risk factors are present, such as ethnicity, aging, hormones, family medical history, genetic abnormalities, and unhygienic lifestyles. Side effects of cancer treatment may be alleviated by exercise interventions. Physical- therapy has been shown to be effective in post-operative situations. It improves the functioning of the patient and the quality of life. Presenting Symptoms and Diagnosis: Main symptoms from the patient were pain in the upper extremity, lack of control, power and range of motion. The main clinical results in this case have been a severe decrease in the range of shoulder joint motion. Reduced strength in the upper extremity muscles and swelling (lymphoedema) in the upper extremity. Diagnosis of the case was Infiltrative Ductal Carcinoma that was confirmed by Ultrasonography and Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology. In such cases, behavioural approaches have been shown to be effective. Therapeutic Intervention and Outcomes: Physical therapy intervention involves a variety of range of motion exercises, strengthening exercises, resistance conditioning, breathing exercises, lymphoedema treatment and scar management. Conclusion: This intensive outpatient program is a successful way to enhance the mobility of the shoulder and ROM during the initial 6-week treatment cycle after surgery.
