Ovarian cancer is a gynecological cancer with a higher mortality than other gynecological cancers.

There were 43 cases of Indonesian women who died of ovarian cancer in 2015-2017. Patients were first diagnosed at the age of 40-59 years (65.11%), of which had normal BMI (62.72%) and mostly in stage III (39.53%). The histology was 88.3% epithelial ovarian cancer with the most subtypes of mucinous carcinoma (25.5%). The majority were referral patients (62.7%), but due to its malignancy, many died before receiving ovarian cancer treatment (40.74%). Of the 43 patients, 17 patients received chemotherapy, and 10 patients received a combination of surgical therapy and chemotherapy. Most of the deaths were caused by primary disease (69.77%). Patients with stages III and IV, as well as patients receiving surgery or chemotherapy alone had shorter survival times.

Most ovarian cancer patients are first diagnosed at stage III with the mucinous carcinoma subtype. Most deaths are caused by primary ovarian cancer. The therapy that provides the longest survival is a combination of surgery and chemotherapy.

Fungal keratitis is an uncommon condition that can occur after ocular surgery or trauma to the eye. Some cases have been reported after corneal refractive surgery. Most cases of keratitis following refractive surgery are due to gram-positive bacteria. However, there are a few reports in the literature of fungal and protozoal infections.

A 29-year-old healthy male developed fungal keratitis Five days following photorefractive keratectomy.

The patient was admitted to the hospital, corneal scraping was performed and sent for staining and routine cultures. A corneal swab was also performed and sent for polymerase chain reaction (PCR). On day 10 post-admission, the fungal culture was positive for Bipolaris.

Intensive topical antifungal drops were started initially then tapered when clinical improvement was evident. The patient had good final outcome with preservation of good vision and free of symptoms six months following the infection.

Fungal keratitis following corneal refractive surgery is rare. However, it is an infection that can potentially lead to poor outcomes if appropriate management is delayed. Therefore, a high index of suspicion is required especially when multiple risk factors is present.

Single site surgery is rapidly gaining popularity for its cosmetic benefits. However it requires immense technical skill due to its challenging ergonomics.We have reported here a case where multiple surgeries have been performed through the same single site,without the usage of special devices.This article has been reported in line with the SCARE criteria [1].

A 45-year-old obese lady presented with symptomatic cholelithiasis and a para umbilical hernia. She underwent uneventful trans umbilical, single site laparoscopic cholecystectomy, sleeve gastrectomy and paraumbilical hernia repair.

This article is being published as it is the first reported from the Middle East. Recent development of laparoscopy was represented with introduction of the concept of scarless surgery using Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES), or its Transumbilical counterpart (NOTUS). Unfortunately,these two approaches have not been widely reported, probably due to the need for specialized instruments, learning curve, and prolonged surgery time [2].

This single case report is to indicate that it is technically possible and cosmetically appealing to perform such a complex surgery.

Despite lacking evidence, peripheral specimens are often discarded to avoid regional variability. This study, therefore, examined whether μTBS to central and peripheral dentin differed. Dentin surfaces of extracted human molars were bonded with various self-etch adhesives, built up with a resin composite, cut into beams, and stressed in tension. Failure mode was classified as adhesive, cohesive in dentin, or other using scanning electron microscopy. Since cohesive failures in dentin were frequent and could confound μTBS results, the data from central/peripheral dentin were analyzed using a Weibull competing risk (CR) model distinguishing failure modes, and its outcomes were compared to a conventional failure mode non-distinguishing Weibull model. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ve-822.html Based on the strength data of cohesively failed specimens, the CR model also estimated the strength of dentin. For comparison, the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of dentin was measured in both regions. The conventional model suggested that peripheral μTBS was higher than central μTBS. Conversely, the CR model disclosed no significant difference in μTBS between the regions but indicated a higher strength of peripheral dentin. This finding was confirmed by UTS measurements, and further supported by the significantly higher incidence of cohesive failures in central dentin. Therefore, peripheral specimens can be used in the μTBS test as well as central ones, but a CR model should be used for statistical analysis if cohesive failures in dentin are frequent, as the strength of peripheral dentin is higher.The primary purpose of this paper is to outline a methodology for evaluating the likelihood of cortical bone fracture in the proximal femur in the event of a sideways fall. The approach includes conducting finite element (FE) analysis in which the cortical bone is treated as an anisotropic material, and the admissibility of the stress field is validated both in tension and compression regime. In assessing the onset of fracture, two methodologies are used, namely the Critical Plane approach and the Microstructure Tensor approach. The former is employed in the tension regime, while the latter governs the conditions at failure in compression. The propagation of localized damage is modeled using a constitutive law with embedded discontinuity (CLED). In this approach, the localized deformation is described by a homogenization procedure in which the average properties of cortical tissue intercepted by a macrocrack are established. The key material properties governing the conditions at failure are specified from a series of independent material tests conducted on cortical bone samples tested at different orientations relative to the loading direction.
