This document provides information on various conventional urinary imaging techniques, including intravenous urography (IVP), micturating cystourethrogram (MCU), and retrograde urethrography (RGU). It discusses the history, indications, contraindications, procedures, and grading of these techniques. IVP involves injecting contrast medium intravenously to visualize the kidneys and urinary tract. MCU involves catheterizing the bladder and filling it with contrast to image the bladder and urethra during voiding. Both techniques can detect abnormalities and evaluate renal function, but have been supplemented by ultrasound, CT, MRI and nuclear medicine due to improved sensitivity, specificity and safety.
Nephroblastoma, also known as Wilms tumor, is the most common renal cancer in children. It arises from primitive renal cells that failed to differentiate normally. Clinically, it presents as an asymptomatic abdominal mass often found during bathing. Diagnosis involves imaging tests and biopsy. Staging determines prognosis and guides treatment, which typically involves surgery to remove the tumor along with chemotherapy and sometimes radiation therapy. With current multi-modal therapy, the cure rate for Wilms tumor is over 85%.
CHRONIC DACROCYSTITIS AND ITS MANAGEMENTJINORAJ RAJAN
油
Dacryocystitis is an infection of the lacrimal sac caused by obstruction of the nasolacrimal duct. The main cause is distal obstruction of the nasolacrimal duct, leading to tear retention in the lacrimal sac. Clinical evaluation includes syringing and probing to assess the level of obstruction. Treatment depends on the stage but may include intubation, balloon dacryoplasty, or dacryocystorhinostomy to surgically create a passage from the lacrimal sac to the nasal cavity.

Digital Rectal Examination (DRE) is an important procedure in surgical practice used to examine the rectum and surrounding structures. It involves visual inspection of the external anal area and digital palpation of the internal rectum. The 12 key steps of a DRE are outlined, including introducing the procedure to the patient, inspecting externally, lubricating the finger, inserting the finger to palpate internal structures, and communicating findings to the patient. DRE allows examination of the prostate, cervix, and other pelvic structures to detect abnormalities like masses, hemorrhoids, or tenderness that can indicate various diseases.
Ultrasonography, also known as sonography, involves exposing the body to high frequency sound waves to produce images of internal organs and structures. It has a variety of clinical applications for diagnosing conditions in many areas of the body. Ultrasonography is noninvasive, does not use ionizing radiation, and can provide real-time images to evaluate moving structures like the heart or fetus. While it has limitations in penetration depth and can be operator dependent, technological advances are expanding its capabilities for diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

It details the anatomy of the lacrimal apparatus including the lacrimal gland, ducts, puncta, canaliculi, sac, and valves. It then explains the steps of an endoscopic DCR including identifying landmarks, raising mucosal flaps, removing lacrimal bone with punches or forceps, and opening the lacrimal sac to drain into the nose. Key anatomical structures like the lacrimal sac, frontal process, and uncinate process are highlighted to safely perform this surgery and relieve epiphora caused by nasolacrimal duct obstruction.
The document discusses various diagnostic tests involving visualization of body structures and functions. It describes procedures like endoscopy, colonoscopy and sigmoidoscopy which allow direct visualization of the gastrointestinal tract. Indirect visualization is achieved through radiographic imaging using barium and fluoroscopy. Procedures for visualizing the urinary system like IV pyelogram, cystoscopy and renal ultrasonography are also outlined. The document also discusses various cardiac diagnostic tests including electrocardiography, echocardiogram, stress testing and angiography. Visualization of the lungs can be achieved through procedures like bronchoscopy.
Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) surgery is performed to restore tear drainage from the lacrimal sac into the nose when the nasolacrimal duct is blocked. There are several types but external DCR involves making incisions in the skin and nasal mucosa to create flaps and suturing them together to bypass the blockage. Preoperative testing and nasal packing is done prior to general anesthesia. The procedure exposes and removes bone between the lacrimal sac and nose to join the spaces. Silastic tubes may be placed short term and patients are monitored after for potential early, intermediate or late complications like infection, scarring or restenosis.
Spinal anaesthesia involves injecting local anaesthetic into the subarachnoid space to block spinal nerves. It was first introduced in the late 1800s. The spinal cord and nerves are surrounded by meninges including the dura, arachnoid and pia mater. Cerebrospinal fluid flows in the subarachnoid space. Spinal anaesthesia is performed using a small needle inserted between vertebrae to access this space and inject anaesthetic. The level and extent of nerve blockade depends on factors like drug used, dose, patient positioning and anatomy. It provides anaesthesia for surgeries below the level of injection while sparing consciousness above.
Ultrasound can be used widely by surgeons during operations. It has several uses including acquiring new diagnostic information, confirming completion of operations, and guiding surgical procedures. Intraoperative ultrasound is performed using contact, probe-standoff, or compression scanning techniques. It is useful for examining organs like the liver and bile ducts. Laparoscopic ultrasound overcomes some disadvantages of laparoscopy and can also be used to guide procedures. Focused assessment with sonography for trauma (FAST) allows rapid identification of free fluid in trauma patients.

If its not Itch Its not Eczema
Eczema is a group of medical conditions which causes inflammation and irritation to skin.
It is also called as Dermatitis
Eczema is an itchy consisting of ill defined erythremotous patches. The skin surface is usually scaly and As time progress, constant scratching leads to thickened lichenified skin.
Several classifications of eczemas are available based on Etiology, Pattern and chronicity.
According to aetiology Eczema are classified as:
Endogenous eczema: Where constitutional factors predispose the patient to developing an eczema.
Family history (maternal h/o eczema) is often present
Strong genetic predisposition (Filaggrin gene mutations are often present).
Filaggrin is responsible for maintaining moisture in skin (hence all AD patients have dry skin.
Immunilogical factor-Th-2 disease, Type I hypersensitivity (hence serum IgE high)
e.g., Seborrheic dermatitis, Statis dermatitis, Nummular dermatitis, Dyshidrotic Eczema
Exogenous eczema: Where external stimuli trigger development of eczema,
e.g., Irritant dermatitis, Allergic Dermatitis, Neurodermatitis,
Combined eczema: When a combination of constitutional factors and extrinsic triggers are responsible for the development of eczema
e.g., Atopic dermatitis
Extremes of Temperature
Irritants : Soaps, Detergents, Shower gels, Bubble baths and water
Stress
Infection either bacterial or viral,
Bacterial infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus species.
Viral infections such as Herpes Simplex, Molluscum Contagiosum
Contact allergens
Inhaled allergens
Airborne allergens
Allergens include
Metals eg. Nickle, Cobalt
Neomycin, Topical ointment
Fragrance ingredients such as Balsam of Peru
Rubber compounds
Hair dyes for example p-Phenylediamine
Plants eg. Poison ivy .
Atopic Dermatitis : AD is a chronic, pruritic inflammatory skin disease characterized by itchy inflamed skin.
Allergic Dermatitis: A red itchy weepy reaction where the skin has come in contact with a substance That immune system recognizes as foreign substances.
Ex: Poison envy, Preservatives from creams and lotions.
Contact Irritant Dermatitis: A Localized reaction that include redness, itching and burning where the skin has come In contact with an allergen or with irritant such as acid, cleaning agent or chemical.
Dyshidrotic Eczema: Irritation of skin on the palms and soles by
clear deep blisters that itch and burn.
Clinical Features; Acute Eczema:- Acute eczema is characterized by an erythematous and edematous plaque, which is ill-defined and is surmounted by papules, vesicles, pustules and exudate that dries to form crusts. A subsiding eczematous plaque may be covered with scales.
Chronic Eczema:- Chronic eczema is characterized by lichenification, which is a triad of hyperpigmentation, thickening markings. The lesions are less exudative and more scaly. Flexural lesions may develop fissures.
Pruritus
Characteristic Rash
Chronic or repeatedly occurring symptoms.

Non-Invasive ICP Monitoring for NeurosurgeonsDhaval Shukla
油
This presentation delves into the latest advancements in non-invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring techniques, specifically tailored for neurosurgeons. It covers the importance of ICP monitoring in clinical practice, explores various non-invasive methods, and discusses their accuracy, reliability, and clinical applications. Attendees will gain insights into the benefits of non-invasive approaches over traditional invasive methods, including reduced risk of complications and improved patient outcomes. This comprehensive overview is designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of neurosurgeons in managing patients with neurological conditions.
Invasive systems are commonly used for monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and are considered the gold standard. The availability of invasive ICP monitoring is heterogeneous, and in low- and middle-income settings, these systems are not routinely employed due to high cost or limited accessibility. The aim of this presentation is to develop recommendations to guide monitoring and ICP-driven therapies in TBI using non-invasive ICP (nICP) systems.

The shoulder complex acts as in coordinated fashion to provide the smoothest and greatest range of motion possible of the upper limb.
Combined motion of GH and ST joint of shoulder complex helps in:
Distribution of motion between other two joints.
Maintenance of glenoid fossa in optimal position.
Maintenance of good length tension
Although some amount of glenohumeral motion may occur while the other shoulder articulations remain stabilized, movement of the humerus more commonly involves some movement at all three shoulder joints.

23. CT URINARY SYSTEM
2. OPERATING PRINCIPLE.
- HOUNSFIELD UNIT (HU) TO MEASURE DENSITY:
+ WATER IS 0HU.
+ GAS IS 1000HU.
- THERE ARE 3 LEVELS OF DENSITY:
+ CONCENTRATED COPPER.
+ INCREASE DENSITY.
+ REDUCE DENSITY.
24. CT URINARY SYSTEM
3. TECHNICAL.
- CUT THE LAYER ALONG THE CONVENTIONAL AXIS, THE SCANNING TABLE SLIDES STEP BY STEP
THROUGH THE SCANNER.
- SPIRAL CT IS MORE ACCURATE THAN CONVENTIONAL CT.
+ CONTINUOUS SLIDING TABLE. THE PATIENT HELD HIS BREATH ONCE.
+ PITCH = TABLE SLIDING SPEED / LAMP OPENING = 1:1, TAKING 1 KIDNEY SHOT TAKES 30
SECONDS.
25. CT URINARY SYSTEM
3. TECHNICAL.
- SPIRAL CT DOES NOT HAVE DEVIATIONS DUE TO MOVEMENT AND SPACE LIKE CONVENTIONAL
CT.
- CT WITH FLUOROSCOPY.
+ THE PATIENT FASTED FOR 4 HOURS BEFORE INJECTING THE DRUG.
+ INJECT 100ML OF MEDICINE, 1.5 - 4 ML/S.
- THERE ARE MANY TYPES OF DRUGS ON THE MARKET.
26. CT URINARY SYSTEM
3. TECHNICAL.
STAGES AFTER INJECTION:
- MM PHASE: AFTER 15 - 40 SECONDS.
- MARTIAL KIDNEY STAGE: AFTER 25 - 80 SECONDS.
- RENAL PHASE: AFTER 90 - 120 SECONDS.
- EXCRETION PHASE: AFTER 3 - 5 MINUTES.
27. CT URINARY SYSTEM
4. HOW TO DO IT.
A. KIDNEY STONES, NQ.
B. KIDNEY TUMOR.
C. RENAL BLOOD VESSELS.
D. URINARY TRACT INFECTION.
E. BQ AND NQ.
29. RENAL ARGIOGRAPHY
1. INDICATION.
- HEMATURIA SUSPECTED OF VASCULAR ABNORMALITIES.
- KIDNEY TUMOR: VASCULAR DISTRIBUTION.
- BEFORE SURGERY: PARTIAL NEPHRECTOMY, LARGE KIDNEY, ADRENAL, RETROPERITONEAL
TUMORS.
- RENAL VASCULAR DISEASE.
- SUSPECTED RENAL VASCULAR INJURY ON UIV OR CT IN TRAUMA.
30. RENAL ARGIOGRAPHY
2. PRINCIPLES.
- TAKING 2 RENAL ARTERIES TOGETHER: INJECTING MEDICINE INTO THE AORTA ABOVE THE
RENAL ARTERY.
- SCAN EACH RENAL ARTERY SEPARATELY: FROM THE AORTA, INSERT THE CATHETER INTO THE
RENAL ARTERY TO BE SCANNED AND INJECT MEDICATION.
31. RENAL ARGIOGRAPHY
3. PROCEED.
A. DIRECT METHOD.
- INSERT THE NEEDLE DIRECTLY INTO THE AORTA ABOVE THE RENAL
ARTERY.
B. INDIRECT METHOD.
- CATHETER FROM THE FEMORAL ARTERY UP TO THE 12TH LUMBAR AND
1ST LUMBAR VERTEBRAE. MEDICATION PUMP.
- DIRECT THE CATHETER INTO THE KIDNEY TO TAKE THE SCAN. KIDNEY
SCAN TO CHOOSE FORTUNE.
32. RENAL ARGIOGRAPHY
4.RESULTS.
A. NORMAL.
CLEARLY SEE THE DIVISION OF MM INTO EACH KIDNEY.
B. PATHOLOGICAL.
- MM PROLIFERATION IN MALIGNANT TUMOR AREAS.
- REDUCE MM IN KIDNEY CYST AREA.
- RENAL ARTERY ANEURYSM.
- RENAL ARTERY STENOSIS.
33. RENAL ARGIOGRAPHY
5. COMPLICATIONS.
- THROMBOSIS.
- MM PSEUDOANEURYSM.

- ALLERGY OR NEPHROTOXICITY DUE TO CONTRAST DYE.
35. A. KIDNEY AND URETER STONES.
- REPLACE UIV IN RENAL COLIC.
- CONTRAST-ENHANCED CT SHOULD NOT BE USED TO MISDIAGNOSE INTESTINAL DIVERTICULA.
- CT USUALLY DOES NOT SHOW STONES OR WHEN IT IS NECESSARY TO DETERMINE KIDNEY
FUNCTION, A SLOW CONTRAST CT SCAN IS PERFORMED AFTER 10 MINUTES.
36. B. KIDNEY TUMOR.
-GET A PLAIN CT SCAN FIRST.
-ONE FILM 1 MINUTE AFTER DRUG INJECTION.
-AFTER 10 MINUTES, TAKE A FILM.
MANY KIDNEY TUMORS CLEARLY SHOW THE EXCRETION STAGE.
- SPIRAL CT IS DONE QUICKLY, SCANS CONTINUOUSLY, AND ALWAYS MEASURES BLOOD
VESSELS.
- SEE KIDNEY TUMOR INVADING VEINS, NUMBER OF ARTERIES.
37. C. RENAL BLOOD VESSELS.
- IDENTIFY RENAL MM PATHOLOGY.
- INJECT THE DRUG INTO THE ANTERIOR TIBIAL VEIN AT 3ML/S.
- TAKE A PHOTO AFTER 20 - 25 SECONDS. SLOW FILM CLEARLY SHOWS THE STRUCTURE OF
KIDNEY MM.
- 2 OR 3 DIMENSIONAL IMAGING CLEARLY SHOWS MM ABNORMALITIES.
38. D. URINARY TRACT INFECTION.
- USUALLY RELIES ON LS. CT TO DETECT COMPLICATIONS OR MONITOR TREATMENT.
- CT OFTEN SHOWS ABNORMAL KIDNEYS.
- CONTRAST-ENHANCED CT CLEARLY SHOWS THE LESIONS, WHEREAS CT SHOWS NO LESIONS.
- NO SIGNS IN URINARY TRACT INFECTION.
39. E. BQ AND NQ.
- TAKE A SHOT AFTER PUMP MEDICINE 5 - 10 MINUTES . LIE YES , YES CAN CONCLUDE
VALSALVA MATCH .
- TWISTED CT SNAIL SEE OCCLUSION BLOCKAGE AND INFLAMMATION INFECTED NQ PULSE .
- SA PRICE TREAT THAN IN DAMAGE LOVE BQ.
- CT SEES IT CLEARLY TISSUE FAT PULSE AROUND AND LYMPH NODES REGION POT .
40. A. KIDNEY AND URETER STONES.
- REPLACE UIV IN RENAL COLIC.
- CONTRAST-ENHANCED CT SHOULD NOT BE USED TO MISDIAGNOSE INTESTINAL DIVERTICULA.
- CT USUALLY DOES NOT SHOW STONES OR WHEN IT IS NECESSARY TO DETERMINE KIDNEY
FUNCTION, A SLOW CONTRAST CT SCAN IS PERFORMED AFTER 10 MINUTES.
