Ultimobranchial gland cyst, a case report and review of literature

Congenital thyroid cysts of ultimobranchial origin are neck swellings. They are derived from the ultimobranchial gl and which contributes the C cells to the thyroid gl and. This study was performed on a 15-days old girl, presenting with an infected ultimobranchial gl and cyst that was successfully removed

Endometriol pattern with lippes loop

One hundred endometrial biopsies, from post partum patients with I.U.C.D were studied. The histological pattern coincided with the cycle date of the biopsy in 54.66% was earlier in 18.66%, and later in 26.CC%. According to these altered hormonal responses of the endometrium an explanation of the contraceptive effect is given. Abnormal pathological, findings of the endometrium were encountered in 15% of the cases

Chronic ulceration in bilharzial bladder

Chronic ulceration m bilharzial bladder is not an uncommon complication of bilharzial cystitis. 154 cases of chronic bilharzial ulcer and were studded clinically. The ulcers are classified according to their naked eye appearance. 96 cases were operated upon, 23 by simple excision and 73 by partial cystectomy. Bilharzial bladder nock obstruction which was a common association [79%] was corrected surgically. Operative specimens of 40 cases were described histopathologically. Different lines of treatment are attempted and their results are evaluated. Medical treatment is not effective except occasionally. Trans-uretheral cauterisation is always a failure. Partial cystectomy gives better results them simple excision of the ulcers. The possible causes of recurrence of ulcers are discussed. Uretrosigmoidostomy or ileocystoplasty is recommended for cases of recurrent ulcers with contracted bladders. Pathological study of the resected ulcers helped to eluctidiate same aspects of the clinical picture and the different responses to various lines of treatment. 154 cases of chronic bilharzial ulcers were studied clinically.

Different lines of treatment were discussed. Medical treatment was not effective except, occasionally. Transuretheral cauterisation was always a failure. Partial cystectomy gave better results than .simple excision of the ulcer and a simple technique of partial cystectomy is described. Uretero-sigmioidostomy or ileocystoplasty was recommended in cases of recurrent and multiple ulcers with contracted bladders. Pathological study of the resected ulcers contributed to the understanding of the pathogenesis and clinical picture and the different responses to different lines of treatment
