Orocutaneous Fistula in Modified Schobinger Neck Incision—Case Report
Abstract: Orocutaneous fistula is not an uncommon complication of neck dissection. It has been stated to have an incidence of 13.5–29% in local or regional flap. It can be a serious complication due to delay in wound healing, prolonged dependence on nasogastric tube and sometimes carotid sheath rupture. Many approaches have been proposed in the management of orocutaneous fistula and surgery was almost always advocated. Here we present a case of …

Effect of Conventional Physiotherapy and Modified Constraint Induced Movement Therapy through Play way Method to Improve the Upper Extremity Motor Skills among the Children with Hemi paretic Cerebral Palsy
Abstract: There is a tendency in children with unilateral involvement to use their non-affected hand as the dominant hand, even when the actual functional loss is mild. The potential use of the affected upper extremity of children with hemiparetic CP often fails due to “developmental non-use”, and this leads to increased muscle tone, and decreased active and passive range of motion of the joints of the limb, poor motor control, generalized …
