Interval Laparoscopic Appendectomy: An Observational Study from a Tertiary Care Centre of a Developing Nation
Abstract: Background: Laparoscopic surgery requires an elaborate console and sophisticated laparoscopic instruments such as endoscopic stapler, endoscopic clip, Ligasure, and Harmonic scalpel which attribute to higher cost of surgery. The aim of this prospective observational study was to evaluate the safety profile and outcome of Laparoscopic Appendectomy using basic laparoscopic instruments and low-cost suture materials in a tertiary care hospital of a developing nation. Materials and Methods: This was an observational …

Anatomic Study of Neurofasciocutaneous Flap of Lower Leg
Abstract: Soft tissue defects of lower leg and foot have a high incidence and are not easily healed for its anatomic physiological properties. Moreover, they tend to recur easily after healing with a long duration of disability. Accompanying arteries of the superficial limb nerves supply not only nerves but also skin through their branches, and such close relationship between nerve and skin supplies can ensure the survival of the neurofasciocutaneous flaps. …

Diagnostic Algorithm of Multidetector Computed Tomography (MDCT) for Healthy Lungs to Detect Variations of Morphologic Index
Abstract: Introduction: Diagnostic algorithm of Multidetector Computed Tomography (MDCT) was established to make qualitative diagnosis with four types of shadows-increased Lung Attenuation, Decreased Lung Attenuation, Linear Pattern, Nodular Pattern and the nodular pattern is also used for qualitative assessment by being further classified as round, lobulated, polygonal, tentacular, spiculated, ragged and irregular pattern. Method: To establish the new diagnostic algorithm using MDCT result indicators, we selected morphologic indices to used CAD …

Some Neurofasciocutaneous Flaps in the Coverage of Lower Leg Soft Tissue Defects
Abstract: Reconstruction of soft tissue defects of heel, ankle, and distal third of the leg is one of the most difficult assignments for plastic surgeons and it remains a challenge to seek safer options with less morbidity. We report on 28 pedicle perforator flaps without harvesting major vessels in the lower leg reconstruction. In the lower extremities, there were 16 sural neurofasciocutaneous flaps with an axis on the sural nerve, 8 …
