Restoration of Carious Primary Molar Using Two Different Methods
Abstract: Management of dental caries in children using minimally invasive procedures has great importance. For this, various methods have been proposed such as chemo-mechanical methods for caries removal; Carisolv is one of them. The chemo-mechanical method of cavity preparation is considered to be less painful when compared to the traditional treatment method especially in children. In the present article is illustrated the case of a young girl in whom chemo-mechanical caries …

Tranexamic Acid Mouth Rinser as a Drug of Choice among Haemostatic Agent after Tooth Extraction in Patients who are on Anti-Coagulant and Anti Platelet Medical Therapy
Abstract: Oral surgery procedure became difficult to manage in patients, who are on anti-platelet and anti-coagulant medication. Risk of thromboembolism should be balance by surgeon via reducing or stopping anti platelet and anticoagulant therapy in such patients, because there are more risk of excessive post extraction bleeding if anticoagulation or anti platelet medications are prescribed at therapeutic dose during surgical procedure. Fibrin formation mechanism become impaired in such patients, as a …

Application of Guided Surgery Concepts in the Programming and Intraoperative Management of Apicoectomies using a Surgical Template: A Case Report
Abstract: Apicoectomies are Endodontic Microsurgical procedures that require high precision. However, the state-of-the-art method currently used provides for a certain degree of imprecision as it heavily relies on the clinician’s judgment and experience with the sole aid of preliminary radiographic investigations. This clinical study aims to apply the Surgical Guided Approach, frequently used in Implantology, to Apicoectomies, thereby ensuring higher precision and, therefore, a lower amount of bone tissue loss as …

Is Beating Heart Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery Associated with Lesser Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Response?
Abstract: Cardiac operations using cardiopulmonary bypass have been associated with systemic inflammatory response, increased levels of circulating adhesion molecules, and oxidative stress. This study aims to assess various responses in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with or without Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with respect to time after surgery. Sixty consecutive patients undergoing CABG either by on-pump or off-pump technique were studied. Serum levels of tumor necrosis factor- (TNF- -6 (IL-6), …

Protocol for Intrahospital Transport of Critically Sick Neurosurgical Patients
Abstract: Intrahospital transport (IHT) of critically sick neurosurgical patients is an inevitable part of patient care. IHT of neurosurgical patients for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are more frequent than for other patients. During transportation, patients may face certain avoidable mishaps and complications. So, the use of a systematic protocol for transport may contribute to better management of neurosurgical patients. The aim of the study was to develop a protocol for safe …

Sentinel Node Mapping in Endometrial Cancer with Radioactive Colloid Injection: A Feasibility Study
Abstract: Role of lymphadenectomy in endometrial cancer is a much-debated one. Sentinel node mapping procedure attempts to minimize the morbidity of lymphadenectomy while providing the required prognostic information. In this study, we are attempting to detect the feasibility of SLN detection in early endometrial cancer by using radioactive technetium colloid injection. This is a prospective non-randomized single-institution study where patients with apparently early endometrial cancer without enlarged lymph nodes underwent preoperative …

Fertility-Preserving Surgeries in Carcinoma Cervix – What Is the Current Evidence?
Abstract: Cervical cancer is the most common cancer in India. Fourteen percent of the patients diagnosed with cervical cancer in India are under the age of 40. As more women decide to delay childbearing, the number of nulliparous women with cervical cancer may increase. Early-stage cervical cancer has been traditionally treated with radical hysterectomy or radical radiotherapy. Both forms of therapy will not preserve fertility. In 1987, a French surgeon, Professor …
