Abstract: Introduction: Induction of labour is the artificial initiation of labour before its spontaneous onset for the purpose of delivery of the foetoplacental unit using mechanical or pharmacologic methods. Considering maternal complications, it is preferred to induce labour after 40 weeks. In Bangladesh very few studies have been conducted on this issue. Aim of the study:The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of 25 micrograms of vaginal misoprostol for induction of labour in postdated pregnancies and to reduce the rate of Caesarean section in postdated pregnancies Methods:This was a prospective observational study which was conducted in theChowgasaUpazilla Health Complex of Jashore district of Bangladesh during the period from May 2019 to December 2019. In total 150women with uncomplicated postdated pregnancy who were admitted to labour ward of the mentioned health complex were selected as the study.......

Abstract:Cholangiocarcinoma is the second most common hepatic cancer, with a poor prognosis and a high mortality rate. We report the case of a 73-year-old woman, followed for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma in 2010, she had a left hepatectomy with lymph node dissection followed by surveillance for one year. The evolution has been marked by a metastatic relapse, and was put under chemotherapy-based gemcitabine with a good response. Currently the patient is under good control.

Abstract: Aim: To study the clinical profile of vernal keratoconjunctivitis in rural population Method: A prospective hospital-based study was carried out in 100 VKC patients over a period of 2 years. All patients suffering from VKC irrespective of age and gender were included while patients suffering from ocular infections and ocular trauma were excluded from the study. Ocular complaints, duration of symptoms and previous treatment taken was noted. Family history and history of atopic diseases was noted. The ocular examination for clinical signs was done with help of slit lamp biomicroscope and patients were categorized according to the signs into palpebral.......

Abstract:Background: Barbero (2015) defined tooth agenesis as the congenital absence of one or more teeth. Dental agenesis is also known as hypodontia. This condition may be caused by genetic factors, local trauma, infections, or drug exposure during the dental development. The aim of this article is to show a case report of an adult patient with class II skeletal malocclusion and dental agenesis. Case report: A 20-year-old male patient with dental crowding, absence of a lower central incisor and class II skeletal malocclusion. The treatment plan was a McNamara expander and fixed 0.022¨alexander appliances. The result was a satisfactory treatment outcome. Conclusions: A multidisciplinary approach when treating a patient with dental agenesis is the key to provide the best functional and esthetic results.
