Summary
The most common differentiated malignant thyroid neoplasm is papillary carcinoma. Association of concurrent presence of chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis and its subtypes with differentiated epithelial thyroid carcinoma remains controversial. A study was undertaken to assess the association of AIT in patients found to have ITC at Professorial Surgical Unit, North Colombo Teaching Hospital, Sri Lanka. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of diagnosis of significant disease by UGIE in patients presenting with dyspepsia in relation to age. We have conducted a study to assess the association between these two factors in a local cohort of patients In this minimally access era of surgery, laparoscopic Adrenalectomy has become the preferred option over open approach and it is proven as safe and effective in terms of radical resection, perioperative outcome and hormonal response. This study aims to identify the prevalence and risk factors associated with pin site infection in a tertiary care center in Sri Lanka. Retrospective and prospective data analysis was performed on 170 consecutive laparoscopic cholecystectomies in a single surgical unit at NHSL from September 2012 to 25th May 2016
