ABSTRACT
Gastric glomus tumors are rare neoplasms. We report here a case of gastric glomus tumor in a 25-year-old female who presented with exsanguinating gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Clinically and on gross examination, the tumor was suspected to be a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Histopathological and immunohistochemical evaluation revealed it to be a glomus tumor.

Sixty final year MBBS students were trained in the art of neonatal resuscitation based on the 'NALS' course material. The students scored 11.6 +/- 3.02 in the pretest and 17.85 +/- 4.42 (out of 20) in the post-test. The trainees felt that the programme was extremely useful. Majority of them said that the course content was optimum with appropriate use of teaching-learning media. It is recommended that this training may be imparted to all the undergraduate students at the entry of final year MBBS course before their labor room posting so that they can have effective reinforcement of the training.
