Objective: To assess the efficacy of arthroscopic ACL reconstruction with semitendinosus and gracilis tendon grafts and biodegradable screw fixation in ACL injury. Methodology: This prospective interventional study was carried out at Dhaka Medical College Hospital and a private hospital in Dhaka from July 2014 to May 2016. Thirty-one (31) patients with ACL injuries were treated with arthroscopic reconstruction of the ACL using a quadrupled hamstring autograft of semitendinosus and gracilis tendon, as well as a rehabilitation protocol. Patients were routinely followed up on and an outcome evaluation was performed at 24 weeks. Subjective and objective evaluations were performed using the IKDC and Lysholm knee scoring scales to compare preoperative and postoperative outcomes. Results: All patients had either a grade II or a grade ...

And satisfaction in patients who have undergone mastectomy. An Experimental study was conducted from December 2018 to Nov 2020 at Rajshahi Medical College Hospital. Total 556 patients, Breast conservation (partial mastectomy, axillary node dissection or sampling, and radiotherapy) is the current standard of care for eligible patients with Stages I and II breast cancer. Methods: A 2-year prospective analysis of the experience with breast reconstruction following Mastectomy with Axillary Dissection in Stage-II Breast Cancer was performed. Timing, quite mastectomy and reconstruction, complications, and cancer occurrence/recurrence were examined. Patients reported their level of satisfaction and willingness to undergo the procedure again. Outcomes of Mastectomy were graded by an independent and blinded group of surgeons. Results: Outcome of Mastectomy with Ax...

Data indicated that a large majority of the population all over Bangladesh have biochemical iodine deficiency urinary iodine excretion (UIE) less than the accepted cutoff level of 10 p.g/di. Adults were deficient to comparable degrees, 31.3% severely iodine deficient. The flood-prone zone was less affected: 71.7% children had iodine deficiency and 25% were severely deficient. Adults of this zone were less affected than the children. Iodine deficiency was least severe in the plain zone: 59.8% children were biochemically iodine deficient and of them 23.4% had UIE less than 2.0 l~g/dl. In the case of the adults of this zone, 60.8% were biochemically iodine deficient and 20.6% had severe iodine deficiency. The results indicate that Bangladesh as a whole is an iodine deficient region, with the hilly zone being the most severely affected. Children were slightly more affected than the adults, and females were more affected than the males.
