Both knees had 20 degrees of fixed flexion deformity. Patient was unable to stand on both feet and had not walked for several years. The only possible movement for him was crawling. He is a known case of sero-positive Rheumatoid Arthritis, with burnt out knee joints. Xrays showed gross destruction of lateral tibial condyles on both sides, left knee more than right knee joint.

A doctor who cannot take a good history and a patient who cannot give one are in danger of giving and receiving bad treatment.~Author Unknown DEPARTMENT OF ENT Dr. Jayesh Rakholia, Dr. Nirali Chauhan CASE OF BASAL CELL CARCINOMA OF THE NOSE 70 yrs old female patient from Badvani (MP) working as a farm labourer presented with c/o nodular swelling over nose since last 8-10 months gradually increasing to present size. Pre operative histopathological report was Basal cell carcinoma. Wide excision was done & reconstruction with midline forehead flap was completed, which was released after 21 days. final histopathology report demonstrated nodular variety of basal cell carcinoma stage II disease (T2N0Mx) Nose is the frequent site of basal cell carcinoma and is most prevalent in the age group of 65 to 75 yrs Exposure to sunlight is commonest pre-disposing factor and metastasis are rare. Tissue conserving surgery with wide excision is the best method of management. DEPARTMENT OF RADIOLOGY Dr. Shreedevi Patel, Dr. Mayur A Case of Cerebral Hydatid Cyst CT & MRI Findings Discussion Imaging The 45 yr old female patient, farmer by occupation, presented to casualty with historyof convulsions 2 episodes in last three days and headache. There was no historyof vomiting, fever, trauma, paralysis and tuberculosis. CNS examination was normal. CT scan brain study showed a very well defined lobulated sharply marginated cystic hypodense fluid containing lesion at right fronto-temporo-parietal lobe. The lesion contained septae and multiple daughter cysts in it. No evidence of calcification was seen in it. The lesion was seen in continuity with extradural space on right side.There was mass effect on right lateral ventricle which was displaced to left side with contralateral dilatation of left lateral ventricle. MRI study showed well defined cystic lesion which appeared hypointense on T1WI and hyperintense on T2WI with internal daughter cysts. Hydatid cyst disease or Echinococcosis is caused by Echinococcus Granulosus. Human infection occurrs by ingestion of food contaminated with dog feces containing ova of dog tapeworm. The disease is endemic in sheep raising and cattle-raising countries. It frequently involves liver and lung. CNS involvement is rare. In CT and MRI studies they appear as large intra-parenchymal cystic lesion with sharp margins. Cystic fluid is of CSF density with lack of surrounding edema. contrast enhancement may be partially or completely involving the wall. Calcification of the wall may be seen. Recurrent disease presents with intense enhancement of the cyst wall and surrounding edema. Extradural cyst have been reported. Post Op day 10. Dhiraj Case Gallery...

Cutaneous manifestation of diabetes mellitus Case history:
Reactive perforating collagenosis (RPC) is a rare skin disorder characterized by the transepidermal elimination of altered collagen through the epidermis. The 2 distinct forms are an inherited form that manifests in childhood and an acquired sporadic form that occurs in adulthood. Inherited reactive perforating collagenosis is a rare disorder. Fewer than 50 cases of inherited reactive perforating collagenosis have been reported. The acquired form of reactive perforating collagenosis is more common, occurring in as many as 10% of patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis , it is also associated with Diabetes Mellitus, chronic renal Failure, hepatic dysfunction, hypothyroidism, hypoparathyroidism, lymphomas and malignancy. The major abnormality in reactive perforating collagenosis is focal damage to collagen and the elimination of the disrupted collagen through the epidermis. A frequent association with pruritus, the tendency to the Koebner phenomenon and the distribution of lesions on trauma-prone areas provides evidence that superficial trauma (eg, scratching) may play a part in the etiology of reactive perforating collagenosis. Cold may precipitate the lesions, especially in the inherited form. 61 year old male, diabetic on oral anti diabetic drugs presented with multiple, pruritic, perforated, keratotic, papular lesions on scalp, face, trunk and on all extremities for past 2 yrs (Figure-1,2,3). Lesions had started from face and increased in number in last 2 months. Differential diagnosis of reactive perforating collagenosis, Kyrles disease, perforating folliculitis were considered. Laboratory findings revealed: Anemia, Normal Blood Sugar and normal hepatic and renal function tests. Skin biopsy was suggestive of Reactive Perforating Collagenosis(Figure-4). Treatment with antihistaminics, doxycycline and topical emollients was started and showed good response. The ARPC occurs in patients with multiple medical problems, but whether the development of lesions implies a poor prognosis is unclear. Mr. Joshi Ph. No. 0265-2515620 INNOVATIVE ORTHO SURGICALS PVT.

DEPARTMENT OF PAEDIATRICS Dr. Manish Rasania, Dr. Ajay Damor, , Dr. Bhupeshwari. Urea Cycle Defect in a Neonate A 4 day old male weighing 3.65 kg , born to G6P6L4D2 mother ( 2 babies expired due to unknown cause in early neonatal period ) by emergency LSCS due to non progress of labour was admitted withsevere respiratory distress , grunting , lethargy , poor feeding of one day duration. Initial sepsis screen was negative ( Hb 14.2 , TC 1406 , DC 42,56,01,01 , BC 01% , I/T 0.1 , Blood culture Negative ) , Baby developed convulsion on 4th day of life, CSF was normal, ABG showed metabolic acidosis. Child was in acute oliguric renal failure with high s.creatinin (1.6mg%) but low blood urea (14mg%). Treatment was started in the form of oxygen, IV fluid, vasopressor support(dopamine & dobutamine ), antibiotics, and antiepileptics ( phenobarbitone & phenytoin ). In context with the situation metabolic disorder was suspected and serum ammonia on 5th day of life was 2468mol/L(normal values <35 mol/L). Baby was diagnosed to have hyperammonemia due to urea cycle defect. Ventilatory support continued. For treatment of acute severe th hyperammonemia peritoneal dialysis was done. Despite all supportive effort baby expired on8 day of admission. Catabolism of amino acids results in the production of free ammonia, which is highly toxic to the CNS. Common causes of hyperammonemia is deficiency of the urea cycle enzymes, Ornithine transcarbamoylase (OTC) deficiency is the commonest urea cycle defect with an incidence of 1 case in 14,000 persons. The affected infant is normal at birth but becomes symptomatic within a few days of protein feeding. Refusal to eat, vomiting, tachypnea, convulsion and lethargy quickly progress to a deep coma. Newborn infants with hyperammonemia are often misdiagnosed as having sepsis. main criterion for diagnosis is hyperammonemia in plasma>1000 mole/L. For treatment of acute hyperammonemia in infant, adequate calories, fluid, and electrolytes intravenously are provided with minimal amounts of protein preferably as a mixture of essential amino acids. Sodium benzoate , Sodium phenylacetate, Arginine hydrochloride are also given in initial therapy. When hyperammonemia is extreme, direct removal of ammonia, usually using hemodialysis or hemofiltration, is more effective than exchange transfusion or peritoneal dialysis. Early liver transplantation has increased survival rate. Approximately half of affected neonates still succumb to hyperammonemic coma. Survival is better in partial defects but they still remain at risk for inter current life threatening hyperammonic crises. Although mortality has improved , morbidity remains high.
