Levo-Bupivacaine vs. Ropivacaine for Post-Operative Pain Relief after Pre-Emptive Intraperitoneal Instillation in Laparoscopic Appendicectomy

Thiruselvi Subramaniam and Tan Ann Jee

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: October 26, 2019

Pain in the immediate postoperative period is found to be less after laparoscopic than after conventional surgical techniques. Ropivacaine is often in favour of Bupivacaine to avoid the risks of toxicity. Levo-bupivacaine, a safer version of bupivacaine is a contender to Ropivacaine. We compare the pain relief provided by Ropivacaine and Levo-bupivacaine instilled intra-abdominally during laparoscopic surgery for acute appendicitis. This is a double blinded randomized placebo- controlled study c...

Skull Metastasis in Prostate Cancer: A Compilation of Four Cases along with Review of the Literature

Brahima KIRAKOYA Fasnewinde Aristide KABORE, Babagana Mustapha ABUBAKAR, Mohamed SIMPORE, Bienvenue Desire KY and Aïssata OUEDRAOGO

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: November 06, 2019

Skull metastasis in prostate cancer is rare and is seen in advanced cases. We study four cases seen in our facility with the aim of identifying challenges in making diagnosis and treatment of these patients. We also reviewed the literature. This study involved four men age 55, 65, 66 and 69 years. In two cases, the skull metastases were discovered during evaluation for primary skull swelling, no lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) at presentation. In the other two cases, skull metastases were di...

Hormonal Evaluation of Adrenal Tumors: What the Common General Practitioner Should Know

Bruno Costa do Prado, Gustavo Silva Schafascheck and Alana Rocha Puppim

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: October 17, 2019

Adrenal tumors may be a benign finding or imply a high level of morbidity and mortality due to their hormonal activity, or to a possible malignant histology. Medical literature indicates that this condition is due to the improvement of the technique and dissemination in a wide range of imaging methods, increasing considerably the diagnosis of adrenal nodules and its immediate treatment. When treating a patient with adrenal tumors, the main concern of the professional should be to establish if th...

The Prevalence of Work-Related Muskuloskeletal Disorders (WRMSDs) and Related Factors among Occupational Disease Clinic Patients

Zeynep DOGRUL, MD, Nejdiye MAZICAN, MD and Meral TURK, Prof. Dr.

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: October 28, 2019

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMSDs) are one of the common health problems of employees. WRMSDs are impairments of bodily structures such as muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments, nerves, bones and the localised blood circulation system, that are caused or aggravated primarily by work and by the effects of the immediate environment in which work is carried out. The aim of this study is; to determine the prevalence of work related musculoskeletal disorders and the related factors such as...

Coronary Artery Involvement Following Kawasaki Disease: A Case Report of a 5 Month Old African Infant

Tumwebaze Hilda, Ndagiire Emma, Namuyonga Judith, Twalib Aliku, Lwabi Peter and Lubega Sulaiman

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: November 07, 2019

Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute systemic vasculitis which progresses to cause coronary artery abnormalities as a complication. Echocardiographic and cardiac angiographic data indicate that 20-40% of untreated KD patients develop coronary artery abnormalities. However, majority of the lesions regress over time. Timely treatment with high dose intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) and high dose of aspirin has been found reduce the incidence of developing coronary artery aneurysms to 2%-3%. Data on ...

Relationship Between Mean Platelet Volume-to-Platelet Count Ratio and the Presence and Severity of Coronary Artery Ectasia

Ramazan Asoglu and Emin Asoglu

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: September 28, 2019

Atherosclerosis plays an essential role in the etiopathogenesis of coronary artery ectasia (CAE). The mean platelet volume/platelet count (MPV/PLT) ratio is a new biomarker, and increased MPV/PLT ratio was a predictor of cardiovascular mortality in patients with the acute coronary syndrome. We aimed to assess the association between the CAE and MPV/PLT ratio. The present study included 50 patients with CAE and 45 healthy subjects prospectively. The CAE was defined as dilation of the coronary art...

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in a Cancer Patient with Dextrocardia and Situs Inversus

Patrick Lahoud

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: October 25, 2019

Although dextrocardia occurs rarely, the incidence of coronary artery disease is similar to the general population. Few cases of coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with dextrocardia have been reported. Because of unfamiliarity with performing catheterization, transradial coronary angiography has seldom been performed in a patient with dextrocardia. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of successful coronary angiography and ad hoc coron...

Complex Thoraco-Abdominal Trauma: Transdiaphragmatic Intercostal Hernia and Rib Fractures

Sally Shepherd, MD, Annelise Cocco, MBBS, FRACS, Phillip Antippa, MBBS, FRACS and Jacob McCormick, MBBS, FRACS

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: October 14, 2019

Injuries to the costal margin which involve herniation of abdominal contents into the chest are rare. Two major mechanisms of transdiaphragmatic intercostal hernia are recognised: post-traumatic and spontaneous. It is hypothesised that disruption of either the diaphragm or intercostal muscles leads to herniation of the abdominal contents, and that negative intra-thoracic pressure then draws the herniated viscera further into the chest. A 66-year-old male was transferred to the emergency departme...

Pharyngeal Perforation after Anterior Cervical Fusion Surgery

Munibe Busra Erdem, MD, Emrah Celtikci, MD, Utku Aydil, MD, Mesut Emre Yaman, MD and Hakan Emmez, MD

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: October 07, 2019

Pharyngeal perforation is a serious complication of anterior cervical fusion surgery. If it is not diagnosed in the early period and the treatment is delayed, catastrophic consequences may occur which may cause death such as septicemia, mediastinitis, pneumonia and meningitis. We shared the presentation of our two cases. In the first case, pharyngeal perforation and spontaneous extrusion of the C2-C3 fixation device occurred after eight years from surgery. The fixation device removed and the pha...
