Photocoagulation Therapy

Cystoid Macular Oedema or CME is a painless disorder that affects the central retina or macula. It refers to the accumulation of fluid in the outer plexiform and inner nuclear layer of the retina with the formation of a fluid-filled cyst. The primary symptom of macular oedema is blurry or wavy vision near or in the centre of your field of vision. Materials and Methods: A male patient of 48 yrs. presented in Shalakya OPD of GAMC Bengaluru with symp- toms of diminished vision in his right eye for one year. The patient was diagnosed with cystoid macular oedema in the right eye for which he was given photocoagulation therapy but did not find much relief. So, he approached our OPD. After thorough examination patient was started with Ayurvedic Medicines. Result: The subject showed marked improvement both subjectively and objectively. Discussion: Oedema which is the terminus of the pathology in this condition has to be understood as Ekanga Shopha. Though Kapha is the predominant dosha involved in forming Shopha here, the lakshanas manifesting are that of Vataja Timira. So, in this case study, Kapha Vata Hara followed by Shopha Hara line of treatment is adopted. Keywords: Cystoid macular oedema, Shopha, Vataja Timira, Nasya, Punarnavadi Kashaya.

AbstractObjective:To demonstrate the use of an optical surface scanner, with associated software, in the assessment of rhinoplasty patients, and to discuss the possible clinical applications of this technology in the future.Design:Case study analysis of pre- and post-operative scans of a patient undergoing septorhinoplasty at Whipps Cross University Hospital, London, UK.Subject:A 21-year-old man undergoing septorhinoplasty underwent pre-operative optical surface scanning of his face. The scans were repeated at one week and one year post-operatively. Software developed at University College London was then used to analyse the scans.Results:The scans clearly showed that the man's dorsal hump had been well reduced and the nose straightened, with a resulting 1600 mm3 gain on the right side and a 1000 mm3 loss on the left side of the nose. Tip projection had also been achieved.Conclusion:This technique allowed objective quantification of facial features and analysis of change. It may well prove useful in the future in predicting change following surgical intervention.

Cover Up

This study aims to determine the description of self-awareness and faking behavior in employee job interviews. This study uses a qualitative research method with a case study approach. The main subjects in this study were 5 people with the following characteristics: employees who have just worked for less than one year. The results showed that the subject showed a different picture of self-awareness and faking behavior in several aspects. Subjects are able to understand themselves, set life and career goals, build relationships with others, build diversity values, be able to balance their own needs with job demands, and develop self-control over appropriate stimuli. Meanwhile, in faking behavior during job interviews, subjects tend to prioritize physical appearance during the interview, ability to communicate and cover up negative self-images during the interview.

Abstract BackgroundUnclear retroperitoneal tumors still impose major challenges for clinicians. Tumors can originate primarily from retroperitoneal tissue or secondarily invade into the retroperitoneal space. While benign lesions also occur, malignant tumors are far more common. Clinical presentation often depends on replacement or invasion of other organs and is therefore highly variable. The heterogeneous tumor composition makes a definitive preoperative diagnosis difficult. Nevertheless, surgical resection is the gold standard for treatment but often proves challenging due to frequent involvement of large retroperitoneal vessels.Case presentationWe present a case report of a 70-year old woman diagnosed with a large, unclear retroperitoneal tumor. Initial clinical symptoms were increasing dyspnea and dysphagia in our clinic. Gastroenterologic and cardiologic workup was unremarkable. Computed Tomography (CT) revealed a large retroperitoneal mass in the right upper abdomen with severe displacement of the inferior vena cava and renal veins. Without signs of irresectability, the patient was scheduled for tumor resection. The procedure was challenging due to the vessel involvement and large blood pressure alterations during tumor mobilization. The post-op pathologic workup then revealed the rare finding of a completely resected paraganglioma. The post-surgical course was uneventful. One year after diagnosis, the patient is relapse-free.CconclusionThis case impressively shows the challenges of retroperitoneal tumors and the importance of interdisciplinary work in these cases.

This case report is about a seven-year-old male neutered European Shorthair cat infected by Dirofilaria immitis as the first reported autochthonous Dirofilaria immitis infection in Austria. There was no history of periods abroad. Echocardiography showed suspected D. immitis in the right cardiac chamber with increased pulmonary pressure and ascites. Surgical removal of the heartworms was performed. Twenty adult heartworms were removed by transvenous jugular approach under general anesthesia and stored in 4% formalin. Five out of 20 specimens were examined via light and stereomicroscopy and feline heartworm infection was confirmed. Amplification of a 203 bp or 724 bp fragment of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene was unsuccessful. After surgery the cat developed acute renal failure but recovered quickly. One year later, the cat underwent a control examination including echocardiography and blood work. There were no more D. immitis detectable at echocardiography. Lung pressure was mildly increased. Complete blood count and creatinine were unremarkable. The Knott’s test and Dirofilaria-Antigen-test produced negative results. The cat did not show any clinical signs during the follow-up period. The aim of this case report is to highlight the growing risk of acquiring infection with D. immitis not only for Austrian dogs, but also for cats. This case report represents the first report of autochthonous D. immitis infection in Austria. Moreover, even if the prognosis in cats with caval syndrome due to feline heartworm disease is guarded to poor, surgical removal of the filariae can be a successful treatment option.

In 1912, one year after women won the right to vote in California, Luella Johnston became the first woman elected to Sacramento’s city council, and to any city council in the state. She played an integral role linking the local clubwomen, progressive, and suffrage movements in California’s capital city. Her remarkable life provides a case study of how women in the early 1900s acquired and used political power, and in doing so changed their own and public perceptions of a woman’s role in the public sphere.

Dental Avulsion

Dental avulsion is the complete displacement of a tooth from the alveolar socket due to trauma. Reimplantation is the procedure by which an avulsed tooth is replaced. The prognosis of reimplantation depends on several factors, the most important of which are the length of time that elapses between the trauma and reimplantation and how the tooth is stored. The most preferable management procedure for an avulsion is immediate reimplantation within 20-30 min after injury or preservation in an appropriate storage medium until the procedure. If the tooth cannot be immediately replanted, it should be stored in Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution, milk, saliva, or saline solution. Milk is readily available and can protect periodontal ligament cells. In this case report, a 30-year-old male patient suffered a sports injury that resulted in avulsion of the right maxillary incisor. The avulsed tooth was stored in milk for 5 h from avulsion until reimplantation. This case report details reimplantation of an avulsed tooth.

This case study describes successful management of spastic dysphonia using a procedure whereby the right recurrent laryngeal nerve was severed. Thirteen months following the surgical treatment, the subject reported a return of the preoperative vocal characteristics of spastic dysphonia. Tests and inspection revealed that the right recurrent nerve was again intact and the right vocal fold was functional. A second surgical procedure was performed, modified to prevent neural reconnection, with a return of the improved voice observed following the initial surgery. The results are discussed in terms of etiological considerations of spastic dysphonia.
