Initial Experience of Aspiration Thrombectomy using the Indigo Aspiration System for Acute Iliofemoral Deep Vein Thrombosis
Objective: The objective of this study was to report initial experience using aspiration thrombectomy with the Indigo Aspiration System, as the first line treatment for acute iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
Neurological Manifestations Presenting in COVID 19: A Case Series from Nepal
Nepal comes in the low-income nation with the health system working in very strenuous situation. Most of the health care is borne by the individual themselves. Even though geographically sitting close to China (where COVID-19 cases started) and India (where COVID-19 cases surged to the highest level), Nepal has been facing COVID-19 infection only recently. The exponential rise in cases, have brought the health system to the chaotic level. The late appearance of COVID-19 in Nepal has allowed us to understand more of the COVID-19 squeal.
Physiotherapy During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), the infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has generated a public health crisis all over the world. The sequels this pathologies cause need considerations and Physiotherapy treatments have shown to be effective.
Influence of Cardiovascular Risk Factors on Prevalence of Left Atrial Accessory Appendages and Diverticula in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation
Left atrial accessory appendages (LAAA) and left atrial diverticula (LAD) may be caused by structural remodeling. The aim of our study is therefore to investigate the relation between the occurrence of LAAA/LAD, different types of atrial fibrillation (AF) and cardiovascular risk factors affecting the atrial structure including age, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia, body mass index (BMI) and sex.
Complete Visual Rehabilitation in a Patient with Complicated CMV Retinitis and Macular Involvement
There have been many reports in the literature demonstrating successful restoration of ocular anatomy post pars Plana Vitrectomy (PPV) in patients with cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis induced retinal detachment. We aim to report a rare case of complete visual rehabilitation with best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) reaching 20/20 post PPV in a patient with complicated CMV retinitis and macular involvement.
Multi-center Registry For Vacuum-Assisted Thrombectomy of Acute Superior Mesenteric Artery Thrombosis
Objectives: The aim of our study was to evaluate safety and efficacy of percutaneous vacuum-assisted thrombectomy (VAT) for treatment of acute thrombosis or thromboemboli of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA).
An Unusual Case of Nadivrana- Multiple Sinus
NadiVrana is a condition analogous to sinus which usually develops due to inappropriate or incomplete care of an abscess leading to track formation. In this case, we present Iatrogenic sinus not just single but multiple born out of the incomplete drainage of gluteal abscess which was resultant of a complication of intramuscular injection.
A Case of RaktajaGranthi – Haemangioma
Granthi is term christened for benign lesions by Sushruta in his treatise, various types of Granthi can be cited in the text. Among them, raktajagranthi is a form which is congenital form of swelling wherein vascular malformation is the cause. A case of raktajagranthi which can be correlated to Haemangioma is being discussed in this article.
Use of Alkalinized Lidocaine in Interventional Radiology for Endovascular Access
To demonstrate the effectiveness of alkalinized local anaesthetic (LA) over plain LA in interventional radiology (IR) procedures, in terms of pain experienced by patient, and times of onset of LA action. 34 patients requiring 2 endovascular access sites, within the same procedure (arterio-venous fistula salvage or bilateral iliac angioplasty/ stenting) were included in the study, 17 patients for each intervention. Alkalinized LA was infiltrated at one site, and plain LA at the other.
Atrial Fibrillation: Stroke and bleeding Risk Assessment
Atrial fibrillation increases with increased elderly population and it increases the risk of thromboembolism that may lead to stroke. Both CHADS2 and CHA2DS2 VAS scores are widely used to assess the stroke risk according to current international guidelines. The accuracy of both scores in predicting stroke risk is only modest.
Comparison of Speech Outcomes in Unilateral and Bilateral Pediatric Cochlear Implants- Our Experience
Objectives: The aim of our study is to compare the outcomes in unilateral and bilateral cochlear implants in pediatric age and also between simultaneous and sequential surgery.
