Puerperal uterine inversion is a complication of third stage of labour, which can lead to maternal morbidity and mortality due to haemorrhage shock and infection. Early cases can be managed by manual reposition of uterus but neglected or late cases of uterine inversion are managed by Haultain`s repair. Here we are presenting a case of subacute uterine inversion referred from peripheral hospital managed by Haultain’s technique.

Frontonasal dysplasia (FND) is a rare malformative complex affecting the frontal portion of the face, the eyes and the nose; it may occur singly or associated with other clinical signs. We report here a rare case of a full-term male baby who presented with features of FND. There was no history of consanguinity, no positive family history. Antenatal ultrasonography was normal. Though this baby did not survive because the defects were not compatible for the survival. But the developing nations still have handicap in the management of such cases in term of fiancés, surgical correction of such major defects, education and social support in these patients.

Fetus papyraceous is defined as a compressed fetus-mummified, parchment like remains of a dead twin that is retained in-utero after intrauterine death in the second trimester. It may be completely innocuous or may cause complications during labour and delivery. We report a rare case of fetus paryraceous in a 30yrs primigravida at 37 weeks of gestation where an innocuous fetus papyraceous was discovered at the time of caesarean.. Fetus papyraceous occurs when one twin dies later in pregnancy, second trimester or later, but the pregnancy continues. Causative factors for fetus papyraceous include fetal abnormalities (genetic or chromosomal), velamentous or marginal insertion of cord into the placenta, twin-twin transfusion syndrome, true cord knot, cord stricture and placental insufficiency.. Routine first trimester ultrasound is essential for early diagnosis of twin pregnancy and to determine zygosity. Keeping twin pregnancies under close follow-up is recommended.

Local heat transfer coefficients and flow parameters were measured for air-water slug flow in a horizontal 25.4 mm stainless steel schedule 10S pipe with a length to diameter ratio of 100. For this systematic study, a total of 83 data points were taken by carefully coordinating the liquid and gas superficial Reynolds number combinations. The heat transfer data were measured under a uniform wall heat flux boundary condition ranging from about 3800 to 16000 W/m2. The superficial Reynolds numbers ranged from about 3160 to 30290 for water and from about 1480 to 5840 for air. Comparison of heat transfer data for slug flow revealed that the heat transfer results were significantly dependent on the liquid and gas superficial Reynolds numbers. Overall, the experimental heat transfer data showed that the liquid phase dominated the heat transfer. However, it was found that the heat transfer data having a fixed liquid superficial Reynolds number showed that the heat transfer coefficients decreased as the gas superficial Reynolds number increased. A general heat transfer correlation for two-phase gas-liquid flow was fitted to our experimental horizontal slug flow heat transfer data with a mean deviation of −2.77% and an RMS deviation of 9.92%. Furthermore, a simplified heat transfer correlation for slug flow was developed based on the trends of heat transfer coefficient over the superficial liquid and gas Reynolds numbers. The proposed correlation predicted the experimental data with a mean deviation of −1.44% and an RMS deviation of 5.15%.
