Abstract : Mucormycosis is an opportunistic, fulminating fungal infection of the sino-nasal region. It tends to affect people with immune suppression. The nasal septum is a rare site of the disease and few cases have been reported in the literature. This paper discusses the incidence of nasal septal perforation in mucormycosis patients, with the aim of outlining possible explanations and reviewing associated characteristics. This was a retrospective analysis. Patients diagnosed with mucormycosis were admitted in the mucor ward at Dr DY Patil Medical College. An aggressive treatment protocol was used, i.e. an intensive course of antifungal drugs and frequent debridement of dead tissue. Most patients are asymptomatic and estimated that approximately two thirds of people infected show no nasal complaints. The absence of symptoms is directly related to the size and location of the perforation of the nasal septum. Orbit and intracranial extension was the preceding sign in all instances. The progression of the perforation was not controlled by a full course of treatment. Often, patients come to the ENT complaining of wheezing and nasal crusting and discover they possess a septal perforation. The more subtle symptoms, such as discrete whistles caused by air turbulence, are related to small perforations. Mucormycosis of the nasal septum is an ominous sign. Although rare, the lesion is progressive in nature and barely controlled by treatment..

Abstract : A rare case report of patient presenting with radius-ulna midshaft fracture along with ipsilateral lower end radius fracture. A 44 y/f with complaints of pain and swelling over right wrist and forearm for 1 day. She had a history of road traffic accident 1 day back. On examination, diffuse swelling and tenderness were noted over right forearm and wrist, along with a restricted range of motions at elbow and wrist. Plain radiograph of forearm and wrist joint was suggestive of transverse fracture of radius ulna midshaft along with colles fracture of the lower end radius. The patient was started on Analgesics and IV fluids, and Open Reduction Internal Fixation with Plating was done for Radius and Ulna Shaft along with Closed Reduction Internal Fixation for Lower End Radius Fractures under Supra-Clavicular and Axillary Nerve Root Block. Post-op, immediate mobilization and ROM exercises of elbow were started and a below elbow slab was given for immobilisation of wrist to which the patient responded positively. The patient was discharged upon suture removal with a healthy suture line and a below elbow cast given for stabilising the wrist joint and upon subsequent monthly follow-ups, showed progressive improvement of symptoms with an increasing range of motions and sequential radiographs also suggestive of fracture healing. K- Wires were removed after 6 weeks post operatively..

Abstract : Carrying angle is clinically defined as the angle made by the longitudinal axis of the arm and the forearm in full extension with the elbow supinated. One of the main factors which affect the value of carrying angle is hand grip strength. The main objective of this study is to investigate the relation between the carrying angle and hand grip strength in normal healthy children. 370 Normal Healthy Children of both sexes with mean of age 15-18 years examined in different schools. The Carrying angle was assessed by Digital goniometer on both sides (Dominant and non-Dominant) and hand grip strength was assessed by Camry Hand Held Dynamometer (model: EH101, USA), forearm length and forearm diameter were measured by tape measurement. The results showed that there was a statistical significant negative correlation between carrying angle and hand grip strength in dominant and non-dominant sides in both boys and girls and there was a statistical significant difference between carrying angle in both dominant and non-dominant sides in both sexes in favor of dominant side, negative correlation between carrying angle and forearm length and negative correlation between carrying angle and forearm diameter in both sides in girls but there is no relation between carrying angle and forearm diameter in boys. We conclude that the weakness of hand grip is related to the value of the carrying angle..

Abstract : Oral and oropharyngeal malignancies is a recognized major public health concern all over the world. They are amongst the commonest malignancy in India and accounts for up to 20% cancer burden in India. It is a prospective study done over 2 years period in population with history exposed for tobacco and alcohol addiction, at Dr.D.Y.Patil Medical College, Pimpri a tertiary care hospital to study the incidence of head and neck malignancy considering the age, type of malignancy, site, presentation, its histopathological grade and patient compliance for treatment (surgery/radiotherapy/chemotherapy), post-operative complications, its management. Total of 12 cases of oral and oropharyngeal malignancies in patients were observed in ENT OPD in tertiary hospital over a period of 2 years. All the diagnosed cases were confirmed by biopsy/histopathology, out of which 8 patients were operable. 8 patients underwent surgery. Most of the patients are managed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Carcinoma tongue and carcinoma buccal mucosa accounted for most of the cases. Mean age of patients which accounted for most of the cases belonged to 41-50 years old with carcinoma tongue being the most common and moderately differentiated carcinoma being the most common type of differentiation. Most commonly men are affected in large number than women. In conclusion tobacco consumption was found to be a stronger risk factor for head and neck cancer than alcohol consumption. It is also found from our study that most commonly male population are affected than female population. The most common site of carcinoma is buccal mucosa..

Abstract : Head and neck malignancies are one of the common malignancies in India due to lack of awareness, difficult access to health care and addiction to tobacco and alcohol. Head and neck region has a rich lymphatic supply and hence nodal metastasis is common and can aid in diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. FNAC is considered as the gold standard investigation to confirm metastatic lymphadenopathy. Timely diagnosis and prompt management can reduce the morbidity and mortality due to head and neck malignancies. This study was done in otorhinolaryngology OPD of D Y Patil medical college. 25 patients of head and neck malignancies were taken and cervical lymph nodes were assessed. It was observed that most common age group affected was 56 -65 years and 10 out of 25 cases presented with a node while 20 of them had symptoms suggestive of malignancy. It was also observed that maximum number of cases presented with lymphadenopathy were stage IVA carcinomas..
