An ectopic pregnancy is one in which the fertilized ovum is implanted and develops outside endometrial cavity. It is a life threatening emergency. It complicates 0.25-2.0% of all pregnancies world wide.Aim of this study is to determine incidence, clinical presentation, risk factors, diagnosis and management in tertiary care hospital. Methods: This retrospective observational study was conducted over the period of December 2015 to November 2016 for 1 year. Total 51 cases were found. Data was collected, tabulated and analyzed.

Introduction: Hospital Acquired Infections (HAIs) were caused by various common bacteria, fungi and viruses during medical treatments, thus becoming the significant causes of morbidity and mortality. The lack of data about HAIs in Indonesia hospitals indicates a poor implementation of patients’ safety. Methodology: This is a descriptive quantitative research which employssurveillance approach.

Water level indicator is widely used in many industries and houses. People generally worry about the wastage of water, when the switch ON the motor and forget to OFF them. An Water Level Indicator may be defined as a system by which we can get the information of any water reservoir .Water level indicator system are quite useful to reduce the wastage of water from any reservoir, while filling such reservoir. But for domestic purpose we cannot go for the instruments which use radar or ultrasonic principle that costs high.

Introduction: The mucocele is one of the most common benign soft tissue masses that occur in the oral cavity. Mucoceles (mucus and coele - cavity), by definition, are cavities filled with mucus. Two types of mucoceles can appear – extravasation type and retention type. Diagnosis is mostly based on clinical findings. The common location of the extravasation mucocele is the lower lip and the treatment of choice is surgical removal. This paper gives an insight into the phenomenon and a case report has been presented.

Introduction: The use of hrct has an established role in the detection and in the differential diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases (ilds). In selected cases, a specific hrct pattern suffices for the presumptive diagnosis, even in the absence of histological confirmation. The major abnormality in ilds is disruption of the lung parenchyma. Objectives: To Determine Frequencies Of Different Radiological Patterns Of Interstitial Lung Diseases On Hrct. Study design: Cross-Sectional Survey. Setting: Department Of Diagnostic Radiology, King Edward Medical University/Mayo Hospital, Lahore.

Obturation is the most important step in the triad of endodontics. Carefully and properly achieved obturation will lead to the formation of “fluid tight seal” which is essential for the success of the endodontic treatment. Over the past decade, the science & practice of root canal therapy has changed dramatically on evidence based protocols to develop highly advanced obturation materials and techniques. Gutta percha with sealer is the most versatile obturating material. But it has very big disadvantage that it does not bond to the root canal dentin.

Objective: To observe the prevalence of recognised and unrecognised depression among in-patients (Medical and Surgical Wards of chaudhry Rahmat Memorial Trust and Saira Memorial hospital Lahore.) Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted from July 2016 to Sep. 2016 at two tertiary care hospitals in Lahore, and comprised patients admitted in the Medicine and Surgical departments at the time. Patients with known history of depression or on anti-depressants or on anti-psychotics, or with suicidal attempt were excluded.

Fibrothecoma is a rare type of ovarian sex cord stromal tumor with only a few case reports available in the literature.Histologically, they resemble both fibroma and thecoma. Thecomas are composed of lipid-containing cells that resemble theca interna cells. Fibromas show spindle, oval, or round cells forming variable amounts of collagen. Here we report a case of 52 years old postmenopausal lady who presented with pain abdomen. Clinically, she had a firm lump predominantly in the right flank and her sonographic reports suggested a solid cum cystic mass in right ovary.

Background & Objective: The increase of pressure in addition to cornea pain and edema could result in ischemic optic neuropathy. Different drugs can be employed for cutting down the intraocular pressure. The aim of this study was assessment the effect of Apraclonidineversus timololin decreasing intra ocular pressure after laser capsulotomy. Methods and Materials: This is a double blind clinical trial study that has been done on 200 patients with posterior capsular opacity that had been candidate for laser capsulotomy, were evaluated through tonometry method.

Keinbock’s disease or Avascular Necrosis of lunate bone is a rare disorder leading to abnormal carpal motion. Although difficult to diagnose, detection in early stages of the disease and appropriate management can lead to a good functional outcome. Here, the authors present a case of 36 year old male who presented with Avascular necrosis of lunate bone of right wrist with Lichtman’s stage IIIA. The patient underwent joint levelling procedure by radial shortening osteotomy and associated benign cyst or geode drained and bone grafted.
