Normal Standard

A prospective study was carried out to establish normative data for splenic dimensions in North Indian population and their correlation with physical standard on abdominal CT of 21 patients aged between 20 and 70 years having no splenic disorders. Splenic volume was measured by two methods—volume and surface rendering technique of Able 3D doctor software and prolate ellipsoid formula. Volumes measured by both the techniques were correlated with their physical standards. Mean splenic volume was 161.57±90.2 cm3 and range 45.7–271.46 cm3. The volume of spleen had linear correlation with body height (r=0.512, P<.05). Splenic volume (cm3) = 7 × height (cm) − 961 can be used to generate normal standard volume of spleen as a function of body height in North Indian population (with 95% confidence interval). This formula can be used to objectively measure the size of the spleen in adults who have clinically suspected splenomegaly.

A Prospective Study

ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate the results after frontalis sling surgery in congenital unilateral ptosis. Methods: This was a prospective study which included 27 eyes of patients with congenital unilateral ptosis and fair to poor levator action (<8mm). A complete examination was performed including palpebral fissure height and width, lid-crease distance, margin reflex distance 1 (MRD 1) and margin reflex distance 2 (MRD 2), levator function. Fox pentagon technique was employed using silicon rod. Follow up was done at 2 weeks and at 3 months and based on the criteria recommended by Tarbet et al, the ptosis correction was catergorized into: ‘excellent’ if MRD1 measured more than 2mm or the difference in MRD1 between two eyelids was equal to or less than 1 mm, ‘good’ if MRD1 ranged from 1 to 2mm or if asymmetry was 1.5 to 2mm, and ‘poor’ if MRD1 measured less than 1 mm or if asymmetry was greater than 2mm in primary position of gaze. Results: A total of 27 eyelids of 27 patients underwent frontalis sling surgery with silicon rod. The correction was excellent in 20 patients (74%) on both first and second follow-up visits, shown in fig1. It was good in 5 patients (19%) and poor in 2 patients (7%) based on the above mentioned criteria. Lagophthalmos was present in all patients postoperatively which improved with time. Conclusion: This study shows that surgical repair using silicone sling is a safe and effective method of correcting congenital ptosis with poor to fair levator function.
