Background: To report a rare case of a left ejaculatory duct that allotropically protrudes or invades towards the left vesicle triangular area with its dead end. Materials and Methods: The patient simultaneously exhibited multiple congenital malformations of the homolateral urogenital system, such as the absence of a left kidney, the dysplasia and allotopia of the left seminal vesicle, the abse...

Solar energy is a good option among renewable energy resources due to its easy availability and abundance. The simplest and most efficient way to utilize solar energy is to convert it into thermal energy and this can be done with the help of solar collectors. The thermal performance of such collectors is poor due to less heat transfer from the collector surface to air. In this work, experimenta...

A 32 year old woman presented to a hospital in North America in November 1996 with upper abdominal pain and pyrexia. Liver function tests and ultra-sound scan of the abdomen were normal. Gastroscopy demonstrated an abnormal opening on the lesser curve of the stomach which on barium meal investigation appeared as a sinus tract extending superiorly (fig 1A). A computed tomography (CT) scan perfor...

BACKGROUND This case report discusses a patient who presented with bile peritonitis due to spontaneous perforation of an aberrant bile duct that originated in the triangular ligament of the liver. It was associated with an ampullary tumor and treated with total laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (TLPD). CASE REPORT A 58-year-old male patient was admitted to the emergency department of Medic...

In this paper we formulate a high order algorithm for hyperbolic conservation laws using a combination of Fourier expansions and unstructured spectral/hp elements. The unstructured part of the algorithm is formulated using a discontinuous Galerkin approximation. The conservation properties of the unstructured algorithm using a variable polynomial order are examined and an orthogonal projection ...

In this article, laminar flow-forced convective heat transfer of Al2O3/water nanofluid in a triangular duct under constant wall temperature condition is investigated numerically. In this investigation, the effects of parameters, such as nanoparticles diameter, concentration, and Reynolds number on the enhancement of nanofluids heat transfer is studied. Besides, the comparison between nanofluid ...

Presenter: Ashish Singhal MBBS, DNB | Fortis Hospitals Background: Pure laparoscopic donor hepatectomy (PLDH) has become an accepted surgical procedure in living liver transplantation (LDLT). This study aimed to report our technique of duct division PLDH: Duct by Extraglissonian Looping after Hilar plate Incision (DELHI). Methods: The medical records 147 consecutive (10/ 2019 - 12/2020) LDLTs a...

BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of biliary atresia (BA) is still unknown. There are several reports on the etiology of BA, including pancreaticobiliary maljunction (PBM). We experienced a case of Kasai type IIIa BA with PBM, in which we found elevation of pancreatic enzymes in the gallbladder. We evaluated whether PBM is related to the pathogenesis of BA based on our findings. CASE PRESENTATION T...
