Cysts of the mesentery are among surgical rarities and of varied aetiology with variable presentations and
this has surgical implications in the pediatric age group. They may be derived from the gastrointestinal
tract, the genitourinary system, previous inflammation (pseudocysts) or malignant cystic tumours, but the
commonest cause is generally considered to be a congenital lymphatic cyst. The clinical presentation is not
characteristic and in addition, the preoperative imaging although suggestive is not diagnostic. In most
cases, the diagnosis is confirmed after surgical exploration and removal of the cyst. A case report of a
baby aged 6 months is being reported. Hope that this information will reinforce the diagnostic and
treatment strategy

The esophageal duplication cyst is a congenital defect of the digestive tract. It has an estimated prevalence of 0.012%, with higher predominance in males. Although it is a common fi nding in children, diagnosis of an esophageal duplication in adults is rare. Following ileal duplication, esophageal is the second most common duplication of the gastrointestinal tract, representing the 10-15% of all gastrointestinal duplication defects. For esophageal duplication, there are two main variants: cystic and tubular, the latter being the least common. They are usually developed during the third to fifth week of gestation due to failure of the vacuolar coalescence. Duplication cysts are commonly located in the distal third of the esophagus.Treatment should always be surgical, even at the asymptomatic stage
of disease, given the possibility of symptom development and complication appearance. Here we present a case of an adult patient presenting with an esophageal duplication cyst with a brief literature review.

Abstract
This case report describes the diagnosis and management of a large mesenteric cyst in a 55 year old lady who presented with abdominal distension & with mass in the left upper quadrant. Mesenteric cysts are rare, benign, abdominal tumors to which <1000 cases have been reported in the literature. While 40% of cases are incidental findings found either through physical examination or imaging, they can cause non-specific abdominal symptoms including pain, altered bowel habits, nausea/vomiting or anorexia. Less commonly, 10% of cases can present with bowel obstruction, volvulus, torsion or shock. In general, the lack of characteristic clinical and radiological features presents as a diagnostic difficulty.
The mainstay in imaging is computerized tomography (CT). CT identifies and helps aid the decision to pursue a laparoscopic or open laparotomy approach, where complete surgical resection is the ultimate goal. In our patient a CT Abdomen & Pelvis showed a large, loculated cystic mass measuring 30cm in cranio-caudal length and 16cm in the transverse and anterior/posterior diameter. While different approaches have been described in the literature to surgically resect such cysts, our approach was largely reflective of size and adherence to surrounding structures in this case. A laparotomy was performed using an upper mid-line 7 cm incision; 4500cc of fluid was aspirated from the cyst which was found to originate from the small bowel mesentery. A complete resection of the multi-loculated cystic sac was done that included the resection of the middle mesenteric vein. The post-operative period was uneventful. The patient was discharged on post-operative day 2. The Histopathology identified the mass as a multi-loculated peritoneal inclusion-type cyst.

Gastric neuroendocrine carcinomas are rare and have a poor prognosis. The present case concerns with a 55 year old female who presented with complaints of recurrent vomiting on and off, hematemesis and weight loss and history of lumbar stenosis. Esophagogastroduedenostomy (EGD) showed a large ulcerated growth in the antrum. Computed tomography abdomen revealed an ill defined soft tissue density in the gastric antrum, a partial gastrectomy was performed. Microscopic evaluation revealed a neuroendocrine neoplasm. Immunohistochemically positive for Chromogranin A and Non Specific Enolase (NSE). A diagnosis of Neuroendocrine carcinoma of the stomach was given based on recent WHO classification of Neuroendocrine carcinoma of the stomach and on mitotic index with reference to grading scale.
Intussusception in adult population is quite uncommon. It is usually seen in the pediatric age group. A wide range of causes can predispose to intussusception in adults. Majority of them are benign especially in cases of small bowel intussusception. However malignancy is quite often encountered in cases of colonic intussusception. Diagnosis in adults is difficult due to vague symptoms and intermittent nature. Computerized tomography is diagnostic. However majority of cases in adults are diagnosed at laparotomy. Surgical resection assuming the lesion to be malignant is the treatment of choice.
Laparoscopic Excision of Foregut Duplication Cyst of StomachApollo Hospitals
Retroperitoneal gastric duplication cysts lined by ciliated columnar epithelium are extremely rare lesions and its presentation during adulthood is a diagnostic challenge for treating clinicians. This entity often resembles cystic pancreatic neoplasm, retroperitoneal cystic lesions and sometimes as an adrenal cystic neoplasm. Correct diagnosis on the basis of radiological investigation is difficult and histopathologic analysis. We report a case of gastric duplication cyst in a 16year old girl that mimicked as a retroperitoneal /pancreatic /adrenal cystic lesion and was successfully managed by laparoscopy.
multilobed spleen : A case report
The spleen plays multiple supporting roles in the body. It is a vital organ for the functioning
of immune system. It acts as a filter for blood as part of the immune system. Old red blood
cells are recycled in the spleen, and platelets and white blood cells are stored there. It can
have a wide range of congenital anomalies including its shape, location, number, and size.
Although most of these anomalies are congenital, there are also acquired types. Multilobed
spleen is one of such condition. It is most commonly detected during abdominal surgeries.
Since they are bigger in size than the normal spleen, they are more pre disposed to trauma. In
this case report we have presented such a case of multi lobed spleen, which was detected
incidentally during exploratory laprotomy for blunt trauma abdomen with hemoperitoneum

Pedunculated Lipoma of the Caecum Causing Colocolic Intussusception in an AdultKETAN VAGHOLKAR
Introduction: Colocolic intussusception in adults is uncommon and poses both a diagnostic
and therapeutic dilemma. The association of an underlying malignancy necessitates a preoperative
confirmation of diagnosis. The presenting features are variable. Hence contrast enhanced
computed tomography of the abdomen is pivotal for diagnosis. An en bloc resection
of the specimen in accordance with standard oncological principles is the mainstay of treatment.
Case report: A case of colocolic intussusception in an adult is presented to highlight the
difficulties in preoperative diagnosis and in selecting the best surgical option for treatment.
Conclusion: Adult bowel intussusception is a diagnostic dilemma with preoperative diagnosis
being the biggest challenge. CT scan of the abdomen is an excellent diagnostic modality with
high diagnostic accuracy. Explorative laparotomy with en bloc resection is mainstay of treatment
in adults.
ABSTRACT- Introduction- Gall bladder carcinoma is the most frequent carcinoma of the biliary tract. Pure mucinous adenocarcinoma as seen in breast, skin, and pancreas are very uncommon in the gall bladder. Mucinous adenocarcinoma of gall bladder is rarer variant of gall bladder carcinoma.
Methods- We were reported a case of 55 years old male presenting at department of surgery of LLR and Associated Hospital with nonspecific symptoms of diffuse pain abdomen with nausea and vomiting, generalized weakness, itching all over body, jaundice associated with anorexia and weight loss for last 4 to 5 months, ultrasonography revealed gross thickening of wall of gall bladder neck with ill define mass lesion and diagnosis was confirmed by USG guided FNAC, Histopathological examination and Immunohistochemistry (IHC).
RESULTS- Patient present with pain abdomen, icterus and anorexia, on USG guided FNAC cytological and Histopathological findings are suggestive of mucinous adenocarcinoma.
Conclusion- Mucinous adenocarcinoma is the rarest variant of adenocarcinoma gallbladder. Incidental diagnosis of mucinous adenocarcinoma of gall bladder was found by USG guided FNAC followed by the histopathological examination.
Key-words- Mucinous Adenocarcinoma, Gall bladder, FNAC, Mucin
Spindle cell neoplasms usually occur in head, neck, orbit, soft tissues of scalp and along the upper aerodigestive tract. They are relatively uncommon in lower gastrointestinal tract and represent a distinct clinical entity. Increased awareness is required among colorectal surgeons and pathologists due to their benign nature & uncertain etiology, to avoid misdiagnosis of rectal cancer. Definitive diagnosis necessitates immunohistochemical analysis. We present an unusual case of spindle cell neoplasm of rectum in an asymptomatic elderly gentleman, detected on screening colonoscopy. Following thorough evaluation with MRI pelvis, CT scan thorax, abdomen, pelvis with contrast and multidisciplinary meeting discussion (MDT) at our institution, he was successfully treated with a specialized minimally invasive approach (TAMIS). Histopathology with immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of spindle cell neoplasm. As they are uncommon in colorectum & non-invasive, management and long-term follow-up is still under study. These lesions should be differentiated from other stromal tumours in GIT.
Chronic diarrhea as a result of colonic fistulas -two case reports with different origin. When it comes to chronic diarrhea symptom, the first thing
one thinks of is never a surgical cause, but an infectious disease. The aim of this paper is to show 2 different cases of chronic diarrhea, resulting from
benign surgical causes - colonic fistula. The first case is a result of cholecystocolic fistula, while the second is the result of gastrojejunocolic fistula.
Colonic fistulas originate from different causes: malignancy, NSAID, diverticulosis of the colon, cholecystitis, pancreatitis, lymphoma, or after radiation
therapy. They can also result from a trauma, which can be post-surgical.
Introduction:
Cholecystocolic fistula occurs as a result of the inflammation of the gallbladder. It arises from existing adhesions. The incidence rate
is not high, but the complication is not a rarity per se. It is less frequent complication than cholecystoduodenal fistula. The main symptoms are secretory
diarrhea, vitamin K malabsorption and weight loss, and thus suspicion of malignancy is usual. The treatment is surgical removal of the gallbladder,
fistula and part of the colon en bloc.
Case report:
A 73-year old male patient was admitted to the department after 5 months of medical treatment. Laboratory tests, coproculture,
colonoscopy, abdominal ultrasonography, and gastroduodenoscopy were performed - the diagnosis was not established. The diagnosis was made by
means of irrigography and short and narrow cholecystocolic fistula was confirmed. The possibility of malignant disease was not completely excluded.
The patient underwent surgery after parental nutrition-adhesions, gallbladder, and the prepared fistula were removed as well as the longitudinal part
of the transverse colon, which was simultaneously repaired. Ex-tempore diagnosis-the surgical specimen originated from inflammation, not from
malignancy. The post-operative course was uneventful. The first post-operative stool was normal. The patient gained some weight after a few months.
Conclusion:
Along with the contemporary diagnostics methods, contrast examination plays an important diagnostic role. When infection is
excluded as the cause of chronic diarrhea, cholecystocolic fistula should be considered. Malignant disease should be excluded before the surgery, or it
may be diagnosed during the surgery, which would determine the course of the treatment. The treatment of benign cholecystocolic fistula is surgical
en bloc procedure.
An Optimized Mechanism for Adaptive and Dynamic Policy Based Handover in Clus...pijans
On-going revolution in ever-improving wireless communication enforces the necessity of a self configuring,
rapidly deployable and infrastructure less network. MANET is such an autonomous wireless network that
meets the requirements. At the same time MANET’s random behavior and absence of any central
intelligence to gather unambiguous knowledge about user contexts complexes QoS maintenance and
hampers proper utilization of network resources resulting into unnecessary handovers. In past, few policy
driven handover approaches have been proposed for MANET but none of them explores a comprehensive
policy design. Therefore in this paper we propose an adaptive and optimized policy based handover
mechanism which is based on explicitly designed policies like load balancing, service discovery and next
hop selection .Efficient procedures for these policies are also explored .This work predicts the high time of
handover need on the basis of application specific needs of individual freely roaming mobile nodes,
avoiding unnecessary handovers and provides efficient handover procedure with optimized resource
consumption, reduced latency and interruption time.
An Efficient Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad Hoc Network for Secured Communica...pijans
Security and reliable communication is challenging task in mobile Ad Hoc network. Through mobility of network device compromised with attack and loss of data. For the prevention of attack and reliable communication, various authors proposed a method of secured routing protocol such as SAODV and SBRP (secured backup routing protocol). The process of these methods work along with route discovery and route maintains, discovery and route maintained needed more power consumption for that process. The power of devices is decrease during such process and network lifetimes expire. In this paper, we modified the secured stateless protocol for secured routing and minimized the utilization of power during path discovering and establishment. For the authentication of group node used group signature technique and sleep mode threshold concept for power minimization. Our proposed technique is simulated in ns-2 and compare to other routing protocol gives a better performance in comparison to energy consumption and throughput of network.
As-Puma : Anycast Semantics In Parking Using Metaheuristic Approachpijans
The number of vehicle used in the world are increasing day by day resulting in the obvious problem of
parking of these vehicle’s in residential and vocational areas. We perceive the problem of vehicles parking
in vocational establishments / malls. Today majority of parking systems are manual parking systems where
in, on the spot, parking of the vehicle is done and a parking slip is generated and handed over to customer.
This is cumbersome technique wherein various parking attendants in the parking areas manually keeps on
informing the Parking inspector on how many free parking slots available so that only that many number of
parking slips/tickets are generated as the number of free parking slots. We address the problem of parking
in Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) by proposing metaheuristic driven approach of Ant Colony optimization
(ACO) technique with anycast semantics models . Here we propose the parking architecture to solve the
problem of parking especially in commercial areas with their design diagrams . In this architecture we
apply the delivery model to deliver the packet correctly to the intended receiver. Using this we can book
various parking’s through remote areas so that the customer can get the information about availability of
various parking’s inside an area and the parking fare for each category of the automobile. Using this
architecture the customer can get the prior knowledge about various vacant parking slots inside a parking
area and he can book the corresponding parking from his location.

A Survey of Enhanced Routing Protocols for Manetspijans
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) form a class of dynamic multi-hop networks consisting of a set of
mobile nodes that intercommunicate on shared wireless channels. MANETs are self-organizing and selfconfiguring multi-hop wireless networks, where the network structure changes dynamically due to the node
mobility. There exists no fixed topology due to the mobility of nodes, interference, multipath propagation
and path loss. Hence efficient dynamic routing protocols are required for these networks to function
properly. Many routing protocols have been developed to accomplish this task. In this paper we survey
various new routing protocols that have been developed as extensions or advanced versions of previously

Mobile Adhoc Networks is a wireless network and it has become an important technology in current years
in which security has become an important problem. Black hole Attack is one of the promising and severe
security attacks in mobile ad hoc networks which block the communication of secret data during packet
delivery. Black hole attack directly attacks the node’s data traffic on the path and with intent drops, alters
or delays the data traffic passing through that node. In other type of black hole attack which misleadingly
replies for the route request which comes from the node which initiates the route discovery process that it
has as much as necessary routes to the destination even it does not have path to the destination. This paper
deals with prevention of black hole attacks using Shamir’s secret sharing and Random Multipath Routing

Performance Analysis of Mtpr Routing Protocol in Power Deficient Nodepijans
Power conservation in Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a major challenge even today for researchers.
To conserve it various power aware routing protocols have been proposed. These protocols do not take into
consideration the residual power left in nodes. To find the impact of the same a simulator was designed in
MATLAB-7.01. The routing protocol used in our simulation is Minimum Total Power Routing (MTPR) and
different performance metrics such as path optimality, throughput and hop count were recorded in
presence and absence of power scarce node. The result shows significant impact of power scarce node on
MANET performance.
Path Duration Analysis in Vehicular Ad Hoc Networkpijans
In Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) the mobility of the nodes is the main concern. This mobility of
nodes makes the route unstable and unreliable for the information exchange and communication between
two nodes in the network. To enhance the performance and throughput of the VANETs, routes between
nodes must be reliable and stable. In this paper, we study the significance of path duration and link
duration in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs). Because of this mobility, connectivity graphs changes
very frequently and it affects the performance of VANETs. Therefore, path duration can be used to predict
the behaviour of the mobile nodes in the network. Estimation of the path duration in VANETs can be a key
factor to improve the performance of the routing protocol. Estimation of path duration is a challenging task
to perform as it depends on many parameters including node density, transmission range, numbers of hops,
and velocity of nodes. This paper will provide a comprehensive study for estimating the path duration in
VANETs.
Study of Various Schemes for Link Recovery in Wireless Mesh Networkpijans
As there is a growing need for the cost effective and highly dynamic large-bandwidth networks over large
coverage area , the Wireless Mesh Network provide first step towards effective communication. A Wireless
Mesh Network is one of the most advanced wireless network used for communication. During their
operating period , the wireless mesh network may suffer from frequent link failure which results in poor
performance of network. Link failure detection plays crucial role in performance of WMN. The proposed
paper presents the review of various techniques used for detection of link failure and the techniques used
for recovery of wireless mesh network.
A Survey on Security Issues to Detect Wormhole Attack in Wireless Sensor Networkpijans
Sensor nodes, when deployed to form Wireless sensor network operating under control of central authority
i.e. Base station are capable of exhibiting interesting applications due to their ability to be deployed
ubiquitously in hostile & pervasive environments. But due to same reason security is becoming a major
concern for these networks. Wireless sensor networks are vulnerable against various types of external and
internal attacks being limited by computation resources, smaller memory capacity, limited battery life,
processing power & lack of tamper resistant packaging. This survey paper is an attempt to analyze threats
to Wireless sensor networks and to report various research efforts in studying variety of routing attacks
which target the network layer. Particularly devastating attack is Wormhole attack- a Denial of Service
attack, where attackers create a low-latency link between two points in the network. With focus on survey of
existing methods of detecting Wormhole attacks, researchers are in process to identify and demarcate the
key research challenges for detection of Wormhole attacks in network layer.

Performance Analysis of Improved Autonomous Power Control Mac Protocol (IAPCM...pijans
Power Control in Mobile Ad Hoc networks is a critical issue, since nodes are powered by batteries.The
main idea of power control schemes is to use different power levels for RTS/CTS and DATA/ACK. These
schemes may degrade network throughput and reduce energy efficiency of the network. In this paper we
have evaluated the performance of Improved Autonomous Power Control MAC Protocol (IAPCMP),that
allows nodes to dynamically adjust power levels for transmission of DATA/ACK according to the distance
between the transmitter and its neighbors.In IAPCMP power level for transmission of RTS/CTS is also
adjustable. This also used maximum power level for transmitting DATA/ACK periodically to make
neighboring nodes aware about ongoing transmission. The performance of IAPCMP is evaluated through
the metrics namely, packet delivery ratio and rate of energy efficiency.The simulation results show
significant improvement in protocol.
A Survey of Using Directional Antennas in Ad Hoc Networkspijans
In this paper, we present a comprehensive overview on Ad hoc networking by directional antennas. Use of
Directional antennas can largely reduce the interference, increase the spatial reuse and due to their longer
range we can have routes with fewer hop for two distant nodes. However the main problem of using
directional antennas in Ad hoc networks is due to the dynamic nature of the network. Neighbour discovery,
maintenance the track of moving neighbours, exploitation of the benefit of long range and directional MAC
protocols are the most challenging issues. We present three Directional MAC protocols and two
combinational protocols and system which give solutions to MAC and Neighbour discovery and compare
the throughput of them with 802.11 with omnidirectional antennas.
Wireless Evolution: IEEE 802.11N, 802.11AC, and 802.11AX Performance Comparisonpijans
The widespread adoption of IEEE 802.11 WLANs is attributed to their inherent mobility, flexibility, and
cost-effectiveness. Within the IEEE 802 working group, a dedicated task group is diligently advancing
WLAN technologies, particularly tailored for dense network scenarios. Amidst these advancements, the
802.11ac protocols have emerged as a preferred choice, delivering superior data transfer rates compared
to the preceding 802.11n standard. Significantly, the sixth-generation wireless protocol, IEEE 802.11ax,
has been introduced, showcasing enhanced performance capabilities that outpace its fifth-generation
predecessor, 802.11ac.In this pioneering investigation, we engage in an in-depth simulation-based scrutiny
of prominentWLAN protocols—namely, IEEE 802.11n, IEEE 802.11ac, and the cutting-edge IEEE
802.11ax. Our exhaustive analyses traverse a spectrum of critical metrics, encompassing throughput,
coverage, spectral efficiency, Tx/Rx gain, and Tx/Rx power.In a single-user and SISO scenario, both
802.11ac and 802.11ax outperform 802.11n. Significantly, 802.11ax surpasses the previous 802.11n/ac
standards, highlighting substantial advancements in wireless performance.
Performance Improvement of Multiple Connections in AODV with the Concern of N...pijans
Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETS) consists of a collection of mobile nodes without having a central
coordination. In MANET, node mobility and dynamic topology play an important role in the performance.
MANET provide a solution for network connection at anywhere and at any time. The major features of
MANET are quick set up, self organization and self maintenance. Routing is a major challenge in MANET
due to it’s dynamic topology and high mobility. Several routing algorithms have been developed for
routing. This paper studies the AODV protocol and how AODV is performed under multiple connections in
the network. Several issues have been identified. The bandwidth is recognized as the prominent factor
reducing the performance of the network. This paper gives an improvement of normal AODV for
simultaneous multiple connections under the consideration of bandwidth of node.
An Efficient Call Admission Control Scheme for Handling Handoffs in Wireless ...pijans
Personal Communication Network (PCN) is an emerging wireless network that promises many new
services for the telecommunication industry. The proliferation of demands for extending wireless services
to integrated services, which supports the transmission of data and multimedia information, has resulted in
the need for broadband wireless systems that are able to provide service capabilities similar to those of
wire line networks. The ATM cell - relay paradigm is one possible approach to provide broadband wireless
transmission with PCN’s using the ATM switching networks for interconnection of PCN cells. As traffic in
these mobile cellular networks increases, Handoffs will become an increasingly important issue. As cell
sizes shrink to accommodate an increasingly large demand of services, newer more efficient handoff
schemes need to be used. In this paper, the authors describe the use of novel and efficient data structure
which dynamically allocates guard channel for handoffs and introduces the concept of channel borrowing
strategy. The proposed scheme allocates the guard channels for handoff requests dynamically, based on the
traffic load for certain time period. A new originating call in the cell coverage area also uses these guard
channels if they are unused. Our basic idea is to allow Guard channels to be shared between new calls and
handoff calls. This approach maximizes the channel utilization. The simulation results prove that the
channel borrowing scheme improves the overall throughput.
Design and Implementation of Low-Cost Electric Vehicles (EVs) Supercharger: A...pijans
This article presents a probabilistic modeling method utilizing smart meter data and an innovative agentbased simulator for electric vehicles (EVs). The aim is to assess the effects of different cost-driven EV charging strategies on the power distribution network (PDN). We investigate the effects of a 40% EV adoption on three parts of Frederiksberg's low voltage distribution network (LVDN), a densely urbanized municipality in Denmark. Our findings indicate that cable and transformer overloading especially pose a challenge. However, the impact of EVs varies significantly between each LVDN area and charging scenario. Across scenarios and LVDNs, the share of cables facing congestion ranges between 5% and 60%. It is also revealed that time-of-use (ToU)-based and single-day cost-minimized charging could be beneficial for LVDNs with moderate EV adoption rates. In contrast, multiple-day optimization will likely lead to severe congestion, as such strategies concentrate demand on a single day that would otherwise be distributed over several days, thus raising concerns about how to prevent it. The broader implications of our research suggest that, despite initial worries primarily centered on congestion due to unregulated charging during peak hours, a transition to cost-based smart charging, propelled by an increasing awareness of time-dependent electricity prices, may lead to a significant rise in charging synchronization, bringing about undesirable consequences for the power distribution network (PDN).

Multilayer Perceptron Guided Key Generation through Mutation with Recursive R...pijans
In this paper, a multilayer perceptron guided key generation for encryption/decryption (MLPKG) has been
proposed through recursive replacement using mutated character code generation for wireless
communication of data/information. Multilayer perceptron transmitting systems at both ends accept an
identical input vector, generate an output bit and the network are trained based on the output bit which is
used to form a protected variable length secret-key. For each session, different hidden layer of multilayer
neural network is selected randomly and weights or hidden units of this selected hidden layer help to form
a secret session key. The plain text is encrypted using mutated character code table. Intermediate cipher
text is yet again encrypted through recursive replacement technique to from next intermediate encrypted
text which is again encrypted to form the final cipher text through chaining , cascaded xoring of multilayer
perceptron generated session key. If size of the final block of intermediate cipher text is less than the size of
the key then this block is kept unaltered. Receiver will use identical multilayer perceptron generated
session key for performing deciphering process for getting the recursive replacement encrypted cipher text
and then mutated character code table is used for decoding. Parametric tests have been done and results
are compared in terms of Chi-Square test, response time in transmission with some existing classical
techniques, which shows comparable results for the proposed technique.
Performance Analysis of Mobile Adhoc Network Routing Protocols Over Tcppijans
In order to reduce the communication cost and time we are looking forward for successful implementation
of an infrastructure less network like Mobile Ad Hoc Network in all arena of wireless mobile
communication. But still it is a challenge to decide a most appropriate routing protocol for MANET. In
MANET there is no fixed topology due to the mobility of nodes, interference, multipath propagation and
path loss. Since MANET does not use fixed infrastructure rather it always have to find suitable router and
routing path for each communication, existing established routing protocol is not suitable for MANET to
function properly. Different Routing protocols have been proposed to meet the challenges with MANETs.
This paper evaluates the performances of four MANET routing protocols which are DSDV, AODV, DSR
and TORA over TCP, a Transport Layer Protocol. The performance metrics which are considered in this
paper are packet delivery fractions, normalized routing overload, end to end delay and throughput. DSDV
is a proactive protocol and the others are reactive protocols.
Securing Mobile Ad hoc Networks: Key Management and Routingpijans
Secure communication between two nodes in a network depends on reliable key management systems that generate and distribute keys between communicating nodes and a secure routing protocol that establishes a route between them. But due to lack of central server and infrastructure in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs), this is major problem to manage the keys in the network. Dynamically changes in network’s topology causes weak trust relationship among the nodes in the network. . In MANETs a mobile node operates as not only end terminal but also as an intermediate router. Therefore, a multi-hop scenario occurs for communication in MANETs; where there may be one or more malicious nodes in between source and destination. A routing protocol is said to be secure that detects the detrimental effects of malicious node(s in the path from source to destination). In this paper, we proposed a key management scheme and a secure routing protocol that secures on demand routing protocol such as DSR and AODV. We assume that MANETs is divided into groups having a group leader in each group. Group leader has responsibility of key management in its group. Proposed key management scheme is a decentralized scheme that does not require any Trusted Third Party (TTP) for key management. In proposed key management system, both a new node and group leader authenticates each other mutually before joining the network. While proposed secure routing protocol allows both communicating parties as well as intermediate nodes to authenticate other nodes and maintains message integrity.

ABSTRACT: Although a significant amount of literature exists on Morocco's migration policies and their
successes and failures since their implementation in 2014, there is limited research on the integration of subSaharan African children into schools. This paperis part of a Ph.D. research project that aims to fill this gap. It
reports the main findings of a study conducted with migrant children enrolled in two public schools in Rabat,
Morocco, exploring how integration is defined by the children themselves and identifying the obstacles that they
have encountered thus far. The following paper uses an inductive approach and primarily focuses on the
relationships of children with their teachers and peers as a key aspect of integration for students with a migration
background. The study has led to several crucial findings. It emphasizes the significance of speaking Colloquial
Moroccan Arabic (Darija) and being part of a community for effective integration. Moreover, it reveals that the
use of Modern Standard Arabic as the language of instruction in schools is a source of frustration for students,
indicating the need for language policy reform. The study underlines the importanceof considering the
children‟s agency when being integrated into mainstream public schools.

Improving Workplace Safety Performance in Malaysian SMEs: The Role of Safety ...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: In the Malaysian context, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) experience a significant
burden of workplace accidents. A consensus among scholars attributes a substantial portion of these incidents to
human factors, particularly unsafe behaviors. This study, conducted in Malaysia's northern region, specifically
targeted Safety and Health/Human Resource professionals within the manufacturing sector of SMEs. We
gathered a robust dataset comprising 107 responses through a meticulously designed self-administered
questionnaire. Employing advanced partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) techniques
with SmartPLS 3.2.9, we rigorously analyzed the data to scrutinize the intricate relationship between safety
behavior and safety performance. The research findings unequivocally underscore the palpable and
consequential impact of safety behavior variables, namely safety compliance and safety participation, on
improving safety performance indicators such as accidents, injuries, and property damages. These results
strongly validate research hypotheses. Consequently, this study highlights the pivotal significance of cultivating
safety behavior among employees, particularly in resource-constrained SME settings, as an essential step toward
enhancing workplace safety performance.

ABSTRACT
Cysts of the mesentery are among surgical rarities and of varied aetiology with variable presentations and
this has surgical implications in the pediatric age group. They may be derived from the gastrointestinal
tract, the genitourinary system, previous inflammation (pseudocysts) or malignant cystic tumours, but the
commonest cause is generally considered to be a congenital lymphatic cyst. The clinical presentation is not
characteristic and in addition, the preoperative imaging although suggestive is not diagnostic. In most
cases, the diagnosis is confirmed after surgical exploration and removal of the cyst. A case report of a
baby aged 6 months is being reported. Hope that this information will reinforce the diagnostic and
treatment strategy.

Messenteric Cyst, Chylolymphatic Cyst, Early Presentation
1. INTRODUCTION
A chylolymphatic cyst is a rare variant of a mesenteric cyst [1,2]
. The mean age of children
affected is 4.9 years. These cysts present within the mesentery, lined with a thin endothelium or
mesothelium and filled with chylous and lymphatic fluid [3]
. Although mesenteric cysts in general
have been reported in the literature fairly frequently, chylolymphatic cysts in the pediatric age
group are extremely rare in the modern medical literature [2]
, therefore very little information is
available regarding their presentation and complications.
2. CASE REPORT
A 6 month old male child, with a full term normal hospital delivery, presented with complains of
excessive crying, diarrhoea mixed with blood and mucus and abdominal pain. The pain was
intermittent, colicky, poorly localized and was mild to moderate in intensity. On clinical

examination, there was no palpable abdominal mass. Plain abdominal radiography was normal.
On ultrasonography of abdomen, multiple echofree cystic areas were noted in the midline in
infraumbilical region of sizes 1.3*1.6 cm and 1.5*1.3 cm. Abdominal computed tomography was
done which showed well defined small hypodense cystic lesions noted in infraumbilical region
intraperitoneally in right paramedian location, just beneath the rectus abdominis muscle. The
hypodense lesions measured 8*9 mm and 7*7 mm respectively. Our patient underwent
diagnostic laparoscopy which showed a single chylous looking mesenteric cyst adherent to
jejunum. The operation was converted to a laparotomy. There was a single cyst of size
approximately 7 cm in diameter. There was stretching of the bowel loop over the cyst. Resection
of the involved gut along with the cyst was required in the patient as the involved gut shared the
vascular supply with the cyst. Postoperative period was uneventful and the patient recovered well.
The specimen was sent for histopathological examination, which revealed multiloculated cysts
lined with endothelium and filled with chylous fluid and lymph. Thus, the case was confirmed to
be chylolymphatic cyst by histopathology.

3. DISCUSSION
Chylous cysts are rare variants of mesenteric lesions and constitute 7.3% to 9.5% of all
abdominal cysts [1]
. There are very few cases of pediatric chylolymphatic cysts reported in the
literature. Beahrs et al. [4]
classified mesenteric cysts into four groups based on etiology:
embryonic or developmental; traumatic or acquired; neoplastic; and infective or degenerative.
Recently, a pathologic classification system has been proposed [5]
. Types 1 (pedicled) and 2
(sessile) are limited to the mesentery and can be excised completely with or without resection of
the involved gut. Types 3 and 4 (multicentric) extend into the retroperitoneum and require
complex operations and often sclerotherapy as well. Based on the contents of the cyst, the
mesenteric cyst can be divided into serous, chylous, hemorrhagic and chylolymphatic cyst. The
chylolymphatic cyst, as indicated by its name, contains both chyle and lymph. The accumulation
of chyle and lymph is considered to be the result of an imbalance between the inflow and outflow
of fluid [1]
. This cyst may be asymptomatic, and may cause abdominal distension or an abdominal
lump or may present with complications such as intestinal obstruction, hemorrhage, infection,
rupture of the cyst, volvulus or obstruction of the urinary or biliary tract. Radiological
investigations form an integral part of the management of these lesions. A plain abdominal
radiograph may show a gasless, homogenous mass defect displacing the bowel loops around it. In
a child with an obstructed intestine, multiple air-fluid levels will be seen on an erect abdominal
radiograph. Barium studies are now only of historical interest; abdominal ultrasonography is
currently the imaging procedure of choice. This delineates the nature of the mass, organ or site of
the origin, and the extent and associated mass effects on the kidney or liver, if any. In a

chylolymphatic cyst, a 'fluid-fluid level' can be seen on ultrasonography due to formation of an
upper fluid level by lighter chyle over a lower fluid level of heavier lymph [6]
. Computed
tomography adds little additional information; however, contrast-enhanced film can show the
relationship of the bowel and other vital structures to the lesion. Some authors have described the
characteristic appearance of a chylolymphatic cyst on computed tomography in the form of the
presence of fluid levels of differing echodensities, that is to say, an upper fatty echodensity of
chyle on top of the water echodensity of lymph in a well-defined cystic lesion [6,7]
.
Antenatal detection of cystic abdominal lesions is possible in a fetus during antenatal ultrasound
scanning. The sonologic picture may help in differentiating the lesion from many other
differential diagnoses. As this usually does not alter the obstetrical management, a definite
diagnosis is usually made in the postnatal period [8]
.
The different surgical approaches used are marsupialization, sclerotherapy, drainage, enucleation,
percutaneous aspiration, and excision of the cyst with or without resection of the involved gut [9-
12]
. Due to high recurrence rates associated with marsupialization and drainage, complete excision
of the cyst should be attempted whenever possible [10]
. In adults, the cyst can often be enucleated
or 'shelled out' from between the leaves of the mesentery; in children, however, bowel resection is
frequently required [10,13,14]
. The medical literature mentions instances where laparoscopic
removal of mesenteric cysts has been tried successfully [15]
.
Intra-operatively, similar findings can be seen in cystic lymphangioma, retroperitoneal cystic
teratoma, caseating tubercular lymph nodes, and hydatid cysts. Even lymphoma and duplication
cysts may also give similar appearances. Excision biopsy is then recommended to differentiate
these cases. Histopathology is confirmatory and differentiates chylolymphatic cysts from all these
lesions. Cystic lymphangioma has a striking resemblance to chylolymphatic mesenteric cysts both
grossly and microscopically. Some authors consider chylolymphatic mesenteric cysts to be a type
of cystic lymphangioma, but the medical literature also shows some authors describing
chylolymphatic cysts as a variant of mesenteric cysts [3,5,13,16]
. The absence of smooth muscle and
lymphatic spaces in the wall of the cyst differentiates mesenteric cysts from cystic
lymphangioma [3]
.
