Background: Ureteric stone disease is a common urological problem throughout the world. Treatment of ureteral stones depends on stone size, composition and degree of obstruction, pain, presence of infection, single kidney and abnormal ureteral anatomy. The aim of the present study is to evaluate and compare in situ ESWL and URS with pneumatic lithotripsy in terms of Stone clearance, duration of procedural time, duration of hospital stay and complications (fever, haematuria, ureteral injury, stone migration, stone clearance, steinstrasse, UTI, ureteral perforation). Methods: A total of 80 patients were included in the study. 42 of them enrolled in ESWL group and 38 in pneumatic lithotripsy group. This is a Prospective Observational study. ICPL were done as day case surgery and ESWL were done as outpatient basis. Results: Intracorporeal pneumatic lithotripsy is better than in situ ESWL for the treatment of small non-impacted upper ureteric stone because it has more stone clearance rate and less complication like fever, haematuria, steinstrasse, UTI, ureteral injury and ureteral perforation. Conclusion: At the end of the study, it can be concluded that for the management of upper ureteric stones ICPL is a better option than in situ ESWL considering its greater stone clearance and less complications.

Phyllodes tumours are rare fibroepithelial tumours that accounts for less than 1% of all breast tumours. Phyllodes tumours tend to grow quickly but they rarely spread outside the breast. Although most phyllodes tumours are benign, some are malignant and some are borderline. It is often underdiagnosed by pathologists and under treated by surgeon. Its heterogenicity makes phyllodes tumour a challenge for the clinicians and the pathologists. Accurate preoperative diagnosis by Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology or by Core biopsy or peroprative diagnosis by Frozen section biopsy is essential for adequate surgical treatment. This case describes a missed diagnosis of phyllodes tumour both by cytopathologically and histopathologically. J Dhaka Medical College, Vol. 29, No.2, October, 2020, Page 182-184

Introduction: Peritonitis secondary to gastrointestinal perforation is one of the commonest surgical emergencies encountered all over the world. This study was done to highlight the spectrum of perforation peritonitis encountered in surgery unit of Dhaka Medical College Hospital. Method: It was observational prospective of 100 cases of perforation peritonitis treated in our hospital. All cases of perforative peritonitis whether spontaneous, infective or neoplastic pathology were included in this study. Results: The maximum numbers of patients were in age group between 31 to 40 years (39 %) with mean age 35 years. Male female ratio was 9:1. The most common aetiology of perforation peritonitis was peptic ulcer disease (73%) followed by enteric fever (12%), appendicitis (10%), tuberculosis (3%) and malignancy (2%). The most common sites of perforation were in descending order of frequency - first part of the duodenum (65%), terminal ileum (12%), appendix (10%), gastric antrum (9%), jejunum (3%) and rectum (1%). Abdominal pain (100%) and vomiting (81%) were the most common symptoms while tachycardia (96%), muscle guard and rigidity (100%) were the common signs. Approximately 15-20% presented late with features of shock. Mortality rate was 2% and was significantly high in patients coming hospital late. Conclusion: Gastrointestinal perforations are one of the most common surgical emergencies. Duodenal perforations are most common. Ileal perforations secondary to enteric fever have highest morbidity. Early recognition and timely appropriate intervention is very important in reducing morbidity and mortality. J Dhaka Medical College, Vol. 29, No.2, October, 2020, Page 106-109

Background: Urethral stricture is a chronic and common urological problem in Bangladesh and its management poses a big challenge to urologists. Surgical treatment of urethral stricture diseases is a continuously evolving process, and the superiority of one technique over another has yet to be clearly demonstrated. Urethrotomy is the most commonly used technique but long term results are not satisfactory. Long penile urethral strictures are best treated by substitution urethroplasty. The ideal graft material for substitution urethroplasty is constantly evolving. Buccal mucosa produces excellent result but is associated with many long term donor site complications. Lingual mucosa is an alternative donor site for graft urethroplasty and achieved good functional and aesthetic results. Materials & Methods: A hospital based prospective study was conducted in the department of urology, Dhaka Medical College Hospital from July 2016 to March 2017. Total 40 patients were included in this study. They were divided in two groups, group 1 was treated by lingual mucosal graft and group 2 was treated by buccal mucosal graft. All patients were followed up for six months noting pre and post-operative maximum urine flow rate (Qmax), voiding time and complications at both urethroplasty and donor site. Results: There were no significant differences in overall operative success rate between two groups of patients. But complications at donor site were higher in group 2 patients. Conclusion: Lingual mucosal graft urethroplasty may be preferred to buccal mucosa in anterior urethral stricture as it is easy to harvest and is associated with less short and long term donor site complications without significant difference in operative success rate.

Optical urethrotomy has been considered standard therapy for anterior urethral stricture since its introduction in 1976. Now optical internal urethrotomy (OIU) with intralesional triamcinolone injection is a safe and effective, minimally invasive therapeutic modality. The aim of the study is to compare the outcome of OIU alone and OIU with intralesional triamcinolone injection in the treatment of anterior urethral stricture. This Quasi Experimental study was carried out among 50 male patients with bulbar urethral stricture in the Department of Urology, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, over a period of six months. The age range of the patients were 32-46 years and patients were divided equally into two groups, OIU with and without intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injection as Group- A (experimental group, 25 patients) and Group- B (control group, 25 patients). Post-operative evaluation was done on the basis of history and uroflowmetry. Retrograde urethrography and micturating cystourethrography were done only in patient who developed obstructive voiding problems or flow rate below 10 ml/second. Follow up was done at regular interval on 7th day, 3rd month and 6th month. Post-operative outcomes were compared between two groups. Post-operative infection was significantly higher among those OIU with intralesional Triamcinolone acetonide injection (8%) than patients without intralesional Triamcinolone acetonide injection (4%). Per operative extravasations of urine were significantly higher among those without intralesional Triamcinolone acetonide injection (4%) than subjects with intralesional Triamcinolone acetonide injection. Extravasation not influenced by steroid but this patient subsequently suffered recurrence of stricture. In Group-A, pre and post-operative Q-max were 10.25±2.21 and 22.11±2.96 ml/sec respectively. In Group-B, pre and post-operative follow up Q-max were 10.37±2.55 and 19.54±2.65 mi/sec respectively. In Group-A, pre and post-operative voiding time was 85.20±4.20 and 27.10±3.36 sec respectively. In Group-B, pre and post-operative follow up voiding time were 86.37±4.55 and 31.45±2.55 sec respectively. Post-operative recurrences of stricture were significantly higher among those without intralesional Triamcinolone acetonide injection (24%) than subjects with intralesional Triamcinolone acetonide injection (12%). Post-operative it seems that triamcinolone injection after OIU is safe method to prevent the recurrence of urethral stricture Bangladesh Med J. 2019 Jan; 48 (1): 31-38
