This is a retrospective study of all patients planned for radiotherapy at Assam Medical College, a tertiary care centre, in Assam, India from January 1, 2020 to May 31, 2020.

Nonthyroidal neck swellings are common and cause diagnostic challenges. This study highlights various diagnosis associated with non-thyroidal neck swellings and their management challenges. \u0000Objective. This pilot study highlights the various diagnosis associated with nonthyroidal neck swellings and their management challenges. The clinical spectrum of two most common aetiology of nonthyroidal neck swelling: tubercular cervical lymphadenopathy and lymphomas, are also compared.\u0000Methods. This prospective study was conducted in a tertiary care teaching hospital from 01 Jun 2018 to 31 Dec 2019. The first 100 nonthyroidal neck swellings presented to the surgical outpatient department were included and assessed clinically, radiologically and histopathologically. Comparison was carried out between the first two common diagnosis of tubercular cervical lymphadenitis and lymphoma. Continuous variables were analysed using Student’s t-test and categorical data were analysed using the Chi square test. A statistical p value <0.05 was taken as significant.\u0000Results. There were 73 lymph node swellings and 27 non-lymph node swellings in the study. The most common diagnosis was tubercular cervical lymphadenitis (n=38) and lymphoma (n=17). The mean volume of lymph nodes in the lymphoma group (38.72±22.12 cm3) was significantly bigger than in the tuberculosis group (9.44±5.99 cm3) P=0.00001. The mean age (33.81±11.8 years) of tubercular patients was significantly less than the lymphoma (52.38±25.3 years) with P=0.000167. The clinical diagnosis was nearly accurate in 85% of cases. However, in 15 cases clinical diagnosis was changed after fine needle aspiration cytology.\u0000Conclusions. Ultrasonography and fine needle aspiration cytology are very useful adjunct in arriving at a definite diagnosis of a lymph node swelling in neck. Tubercular cervical lymphadenopathy and lymphoma were two major diagnosis. Tubercular cervical lymphadenopathy is significantly different from lymphomas in terms of early age of presentation and smaller size at the time of presentation.","PeriodicalId":14059,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Medicine and Medical Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48703654","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fetal supra renal mass revealed incidentally by routine antenatal ultrasound is a great challenge for diagnosis and management by a surgeon. This is a matter of parental anxiety and diagnostic dilemma to a physician. Indeed, such masses turn out to be complicated by an intra-tumor hemorrhage in neuroblastoma or antenatally diagnosed adrenal hemorrhage. The first one needs intensive management and the latter needs watchful observation.\u0000Objective. A case of bilateral fetal adrenal mass revealed by routine fetal ultrasound examination at 28th week of gestation which turned out to be adrenal hemorrhage is presented. This is aimed to make awareness to ensure that clinicians always keep benign etiologies first and thoroughly investigate in case of incidentally detected fetal adrenal mass.\u0000Methods. The study is a single case report of incidentally revealed supra renal mass. This case report encompasses differentiating features between the two and investigations that aid the surgeon to avoid unnecessary intervention in a benign hemorrhage.\u0000Results. The baby was kept on follow up with serial ultrasound scans in the postnatal period and by the second scan in a month, the hemorrhage had resolved completely.\u0000Conclusion. In cases of benign looking masses like adrenal hemorrhage or spontaneously resolving neuroblastoma, appropriate antenatal assessment and close monitoring with serial ultrasound scans can avoid surgery.","PeriodicalId":14059,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Medicine and Medical Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46661337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of the study is to assess the tumor response and toxicities of hypofractionated radiation therapy with concurrent chemotherapy in treatment of four relatively radioresistent tumor sites of head and neck. \u0000Methods. A prospective randomised control trial was conducted in 27 head and neck cancer patients. All patients were treated with hypofractionated radiotherapy at 250cGy/fraction once daily to a maximum of 62.5Gy in 25 fractions with concurrent cisplatin 30 mg/m2.

Prevention of thrombotic complications through vascular revascularization of the lower extremity by using a pathogenetically reasonable system of postoperative thromboprophylaxis.\u0000Methods. The study involved 97 patients with atherosclerotic stenotic-occlusive process of the infrainguinal artery in cases of stenotic-occlusive lesions of the tibial arteries. In order to study the state of the hemocoagulation system on patients, the methods for studying the indicators of coagulation, fibrinolytic and aggregation systems were used.\u0000Results. Development of hypercoagulable disorders in the patients who underwent endovascular revascularization of the arterial segment is more intense than in those who underwent open vascular revascularization methods. Hypercoagulation of blood at the intraoperative stage of revascularization takes place primarily due to the activity of factor IIa of the hemocoagulation cascade. Taking into account these circumstances, already at the surgery stage for thromboprophylaxis non-fractionated heparin (NFH) should be prescribed. At the same time for prevention of thromboembolic complications double anti-thrombocyte therapy: clopidogrel, acetylsalicylic acid should be prescribed.\u0000Conclusion. Hypercoagulant ability of the blood system, which develops after arterial reconstructive interventions, takes place against the background of low activity of the fibrinolytic blood system, nevertheless a gradual increase in the activity of the aggregation capacity of the blood. Development of hypercoagulable disorders at the intraoperative stage of surgery in the patients with endovascular methods of arterial reconstructions is more intense than in those treated with open methods of arterial revascularization.
