Abstract: A V-Y advancement flap is created by making a v-shaped incision and advancing the broad base of the V into the defect. The resulting defect is closed primarily in a Y-shape. A V-Y closure that converts the distal portion of the V-shaped distal defect into a straight-line closure.The primary goals of digital reconstruction are to preserve the length and maintain full mobility of the digit while providing adequate protective cover for this purpose, Various surgical methods are used for amputation injuries including simple revision amputation, skin grafts, local flaps, distal flaps, neurovascular island pedicle flaps even free flaps (Li 2008; Zhou 2008; Zhang 2011). The reconstructive methods for fingertips include, local homodigital advancement flaps including V-Y closure from ipsilateral or bilateral sides of the finger and volar advancement flaps (Kutler 1994; Atasoy 1970; Evance 1988; Venkataswami 1980) have been popular as they are easy to do and does not necessitate expensive........

Abstract: Background: The risk of wound complications following open reduction and internal fixation is notably high owing to extensive soft tissue dissection. Alternatively, application of Ilizarov ring fixator minimizes soft tissue dissection and provides adequate fracture stabilization to allow early range of motion and correction of any mal-alignment. Knowledge of complications in treating with Ilizarov Ring Fixation in Schatzker type VI tibial plateau fracture is helpful in the treatment of such cases. Aim of the study: The aim of this study was to assess thecomplications of the patients in treating with Ilizarov ring fixation in Schatzker type VI tibial plateau fracture....

Abstract: Breast carcinoma is an uncommon neoplastic condition among man, accounting for not more than 1% of all breast cancers. Intracystic papillary carcinoma in man is an extremely rare condition and represents only 5–7,5% of all male breast carcinomas. Clinical and radiological manifestations of intracystic papillary carcinomas are not specific. Pathologic diagnosis can be difficult at classical histological examination and identification of myoepithelial cells layer by immunohistochemical study can be useful. Adjuvant therapy is still controversial, and prognosis is excellent. We report a case of this rare histological type of breast cancer in 47-year-old male patient and review the literature.

Abstract: Background Gastrointestinal perforation a common abdominal emergency treated by the general surgeon. It is a common dictum that abdomen is a Pandora's Box and gastrointestinal perforation is one such condition to prove it. There is great controversy regarding the choice of procedure for gastro intestinal perforation of patients. The purpose of this study was to compare the early outcome results of laparoscopic and open repair and to propose which risk factors influence the outcome. Methods Between January 2018 and august 2019, 20 patients underwent laparoscopic and 30 patients underwent open repair of gastro intestinal perforation.....

Abstract: For the implant placement bone resorption following tooth loss often limits the quantity of bone available. When resorption occurs in areas of poor bone quality and strong masticatory forces, treatment options may include augmentation procedures or the exclusive use of short implants. An implant supported prostheses maintains bone, preparation of adjacent teeth and increases survival rate of prosthesis. Clinical strategies to improve the success rate of implants placed in sites with reduced bone quantity have included the use of large-diameter implants, rough surfaced implants for greater bone-to-implant contact or simply a greater number of implants. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the comparison of bone loss in Long &short implant ten implant placed in different length 8mm ,11.5mm,....

Abstract: Dental Pain is considered to be most horrifying experience by general population. Most people had a fear to face any dentist and dental related treatment for relieving of pain. But sometimes for both the dentist and patient, it becomes very annoying to recognise jaw and teeth pain if the cause of the pain in not visible inside mouth and no obvious signs and symptoms of dental and jaw pain is present. In such kind of distressful condition specialised training is required to diagnose the problem. One such condition which is not very common is Eagle's syndrome, Elongated styloid process or calcification of stylohyoid ligament. It causes recurrent throat pain, ipsilateral neck pain, dysphagia, tooth pain, foreign body sensation etc. This condition can be confused with many facial neuralgia. The definitive treatment is primarily surgical. Mainstay of diagnosis is clinical examination and radiology. In this paper presenting literature review.

Abstract: Background: The article aims at giving knowledge about an encofriendly, biodegradable and most of all a biocompatible material- "Chitosan". It is obtained by the deacetylation of chitin which is a byproduct of shell fishes that go waste. Many researches are being done to explore the use of this versatile material. Recently dental material researchers have shifted their focus to a more ecofriendly and biocompatible material that can be put to use in dentistry. This is where the role of chitosan becomes important. As it has proven properties like biocompatablity and antibacterial property, makes it a center of focus in the medical and dental field in this era which focuses more on materials that are more organic and thereby reduce the pollution and harm that we cause to mother nature.

Abstract: Background: Frozen Shoulder is a condition, which is an insidious onset of painful stiffness of the glenohumeral joint, also called as adhesive capsulitis or periarthritis. This condition is characterized by the development of dense adhesions, joint capsule thickening, and tissue degeneration, which lead to restricted range of motion, especially in the dependent fold of the capsule, rather than arthritic changes in the cartilage and bone. Risk factors associated with adhesive capsulitis include diabetes mellitus, thyroid disease, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia and post-operative heart diseases.
Objective: The interventional study was conducted to compare the effect of moist heat therapy with Maitland mobilization for frozen shoulder patients and ice-pack with Maitland mobilization for frozen shoulder patients.
Methodology: Sixty Patients who...
