Objective: To determine the impact of cancer on quality of life and depression among caregivers. Study Design: Cross-sectional survey. Place and Duration of Study: Anmol Hospital, Lahore, from Jul 2019 to Jan 2020. Methodology: Data collected from caregivers of female cancer patients by purposive sampling technique using Standardized Questionnaire of Caregiver Assistance Scale and emotional distress was assessed by the Profile of Mood States. Data were entered into Statistical Package for Social Sciences for statistical analysis. Results: Among 110 participants (caregivers of female cancer patients) 28 (25.5%) were female while 82 (74.5%) were male caregivers. Patients other than breast cancer were 79 (71.8%), while breast cancer patients were 31 (28.2%). There was a significant association between caregiver health, quality of life and level of depression, one year ago, and at current with p-values= 0.001, 0.001 and 0.01 respectively. Conclusion: There was a negative impact on the health and quality of life of caregivers. Their health was better in the beginning but with time, their lives became more difficult.

Objective: To assess patient and observer reported scar quality after Basal cell carcinoma surgery of face using the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS). Study Design: Quasi experimental study. Place and Duration of Study: Dermatology Department, Tertiary Care Hospitals at Multan and Karachi and Plastic Surgery Department, Tertiary Care Hospital Multan, from Apr to Sep 2020. Methodology: Patients with basal cell carcinoma that full filled inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled by consecutive sampling technique at Dermatology and Plastic Surgery Department after informed consent. Surgical excision was followed by reconstruction of defect either by direct closure or by rotation or advancement flap. Surgical scar was assessed independently at 8 weeks by POSAS. Data was analyzed with SPSS-23. Results: A total of 27 patients were enrolled in study. There were 11 (37.9%) males and 16 (59.25%) females between ages of 45-70 years. Basal cell carcinoma was located on cheek in 15 (55.5%), nose in 9 (33.3%), temple 2 (7.4%) and forehead 1 (3.7%) cases. Direct closure was performed in 6 (22.2%), rotation flaps in 10 (40.7%), and advancement flaps in 11 (40.7%) cases. Mean score of observer opinion about surgical scar between different surgical techniques was not statistically significant (p=0.191). How-ever, mean score of patient opinion of scar between different surgical techniques was statistically significant (p=0.032). Conclusion: POSAS is a valid tool for scar evaluation by patient and observer-reported scar qualities after Basal cell carcinoma surgery.

Objective: To analyze the effects of uneventful phacoemulsification surgery on choroidal thickness using spectral domain optical coherence tomography. Study Design: Prospective comparative study. Place and Duration of Study: Armed Forces Institute of Ophthalmology, Rawalpindi, from Jun 2018 to Jun 2019. Methodology: In this prospective study, 300 eyes of 300 patients undergoing phacoemulsification surgery were included. All patients underwent detailed ophthalmologic examination, including measurement with optical biometry, intraocular pressure and choroid thickness. The choroidal thickness was measured perpendicularly at the fovea using spectral domain optical coherence tomography preoperatively and 1 month postoperatively. Changes in intraocular pressure and choroid thickness after surgery were evaluated. Results: There was a statistically significant increase in the choroid thickness in early postoperative period (p-value <0.01). This increment was prominent in sub foveal regions. The intraocular pressure decreased significantly 1 month after surgery (p-value <0.01). The change in intraocular pressure was correlated with the choroid thickness change at sub foveal region. Conclusion: Uncomplicated phacoemulsification induces non-pathologic increase in sub-foveal choroid thickness probably due to the inflammatory insult of the surgery. Long-term follow-up of eyes having phacoemulsification surgery may provide further insight into the effects of cataract surgery on the choroid.
目的:利用光谱域光学相干断层扫描分析超声乳化手术对脉络膜厚度的影响。研究设计:前瞻性比较研究。学习地点和时间:2018年6月至2019年6月,拉瓦尔品第军队眼科研究所。方法:本前瞻性研究纳入300例行超声乳化手术患者的300只眼。所有患者均接受了详细的眼科检查,包括光学生物测量、眼压和脉络膜厚度。术前和术后1个月采用光谱域光学相干断层扫描垂直测量中央凹脉络膜厚度。观察术后眼压和脉络膜厚度的变化。结果:术后早期脉络膜厚度增加有统计学意义(p值<0.01)。这种增加在中央凹下区域尤为明显。术后1个月眼压明显下降(p值<0.01)。眼压变化与中央凹下区脉络膜厚度变化有关。结论:无并发症超声乳化术可引起中央凹下脉络膜厚度的非病理性增加,其原因可能是手术的炎症性损伤。对接受超声乳化手术的眼睛进行长期随访,可以进一步了解白内障手术对脉络膜的影响。

Objective: To assess the patterns of myoinvasion of endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma, their frequencies in our hospital and to correlate these patterns with survival. Study Design: Retrospective observational study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Pathology, Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital & Research Centre, Lahore, from Aug 2019 to Apr 2020. Methodology: All cases of endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma between 2015 and 2017 were retrieved from the archives, independently reviewed by two researchers, all key reporting parameters recorded in addition to the pattern of myoinvasion as per their operational definitions described by Cole and Quick. The follow-up of 3-5 years was obtained from archives and through telephonic contact for outside hospital patients. Disease free survival and relapse-associated mortality were represented through Kaplan-Meier curves. Results: Eighty cases of myoinvasive endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma were reviewed. We found that infiltrating irregular gland pattern was the most frequent in all the age groups. Thirty-five (43.75%) cases showed this type of invasion, followed by broad front pattern 23 (28.75%), Microcystic Elongated and Fragmented (MELF) pattern 15 (18.75%) and adenomyotic pattern 6 (7.5%). One case showed a combination of the last two patterns, whereas adenoma malignum pattern was not seen. Follow-up of these patients showed 8 (10%) patients with relapse related mortality including 5 (62.5%) infiltrating irregular glands, 2 (25%) adenomyosis-like and 1 (12.5%) broad front pattern of myoinvasion. Seventy-two (90%) patients had recurrence free survival. Conclusion: Frequency of infiltrating irregular pattern of myoinvasion in endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma is high and associated with recurrence related mortality.

Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare variety of extra nodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma that reportedly involves leptomeninges, the brain, spinal cord, eyes, or may involve other organs systemically. We present a case of 46-yearold woman with complaints of headache and fever for three weeks, associated with right-sided weakness & altered state of consciousness for one week. The most common presentation of primary central nervous lymphoma is diffuse or multifocal supratentorial masses causing cognitive deterioration and involvement of vitreous, retina, and optic nerve. Most cases ofPCNSL are left undiagnosed due to uncommon
原发性中枢神经系统淋巴瘤(PCNSL)是一种罕见的淋巴结外非霍奇金淋巴瘤,据报道可累及轻脑膜、脑、脊髓、眼睛,也可累及其他全身器官。我们报告一位46岁的女性,主诉头痛和发烧三周,并伴有右侧虚弱和意识状态改变一周。原发性中枢神经淋巴瘤最常见的表现是弥漫性或多灶性幕上肿块,引起认知能力下降,并累及玻璃体、视网膜和视神经。大多数pcnsl病例因罕见而未被诊断

Objective: To compare frequency of intra-abdominal complications in drainage and non-drainage group among patents who underwent intra-abdominal surgeries. Study Design: Comparative prospective study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Surgery, Pakistan Ordinance Factory, Wah Cantt, from Mar 2018 to Jul 2018. Methodology: There were 32 patients, 16 in each group. Patients were selected through the process of consecutive sampling. Patients were randomly divided into two groups (random number table method); group A patients underwent intra-abdominal drain while group B was non-drainage group. Patients were followed up for 7 days and observed for complications. Results: Total 32 patients were included in the study. There were 14 (43.8%) males and 18 (56.3%) females. Mean age of patients was 43.2 ± 9.5 years. Drain group showed significantly low anastomosis leakage (p=0.02), wound infection (p=0.05), mortality (p=0.04), pulmonary complications (p=0.05) and bleeding (p=0.03) as compared to the non-drain group. Conclusion: Intra-abdominal drains are associated with several complications. Anastomosis leakage is the most common complication following pulmonary complications and bleeding. However, drains help in early detection of complications and timely management of such complications leads to better outcome of a surgical procedure.
目的:比较腹内手术引流组和非引流组患者腹内并发症的发生率。研究设计:比较前瞻性研究。学习地点和时间:2018年3月至2018年7月,华港巴基斯坦法令工厂外科部。方法:32例患者,每组16例。通过连续抽样的过程来选择患者。患者随机分为两组(随机数字表法);A组患者行腹腔引流,B组为不引流组。随访7 d,观察并发症发生情况。结果:共纳入32例患者。男性14例(43.8%),女性18例(56.3%)。患者平均年龄43.2±9.5岁。引流组吻合口漏(p=0.02)、伤口感染(p=0.05)、死亡率(p=0.04)、肺部并发症(p=0.05)、出血(p=0.03)明显低于非引流组。结论:腹内引流有多种并发症。吻合口漏是继肺部并发症和出血后最常见的并发症。然而,引流管有助于早期发现并发症并及时处理这些并发症,从而获得更好的手术效果。

CHANGE OF NAME BY A PSYCHOTIC PATIENT: IS IT MANIFESTATION OF A PSYCHOPATHOLOGY MISSED UNTIL NOW? 精神病患者改名:这是一种直到现在才被忽视的精神病理表现吗?

We present a case of a 24-year-old woman who changed her name 3 years after the diagnosis of schizophrenia. She had recurrent thoughts of changing her name for over a year and described her feelings as terrible as if captured in a dark room. She also had obsessional thoughts regarding God talking to her, body image and size. Low self-esteem was a constant feature. The psychopathology of her name changing seemed to be meshed between normal desire, obsessional fixation, overvalued ideas of its benefit, and psychotic thought processes.
我们提出一个24岁的妇女谁改变了她的名字3年后诊断精神分裂症。一年多来,她反复想要改名,她形容自己的感觉就像被困在一个黑暗的房间里一样可怕。她还痴迷于上帝对她说话、身体形象和体型。低自尊是一个不变的特征。她改名的精神病理学似乎是由正常的欲望、强迫性的迷恋、对其好处的高估以及精神病性的思维过程交织在一起的。
