Management of Shoulder dislocations and shoulder instability in sports BhaskarBorgohain4
acute shoulder dislocation is one of the most common sports injuries especially in contact sports. recurrent dislocations are quite common after anterior dislocation of shoulder especially in young athletes who are engaged in sports with lots of overhead activities during their games. Bankarts lesion, Hill sachs lesion are common predisposing factors for recurrence. Simple acute first time dislocations may be reduced on the field by a trained person but further referral is must for detail evaluation. recurrent dislocation can be reduced on field too by less trained. complicated dislocations, neurovascular deficits, fracture dislocation are to be referred to hospital immediately. Practical scientific algorithms are presented for their appropriate management here.
The majority of elderly patients who receive a hip replacement retain the prosthesis for 15 to 20 years, and sometimes for life. However, some patients may need one or more revisions of a hip replacement, particularly if the initial hip replacement surgery is performed at a young age and the patient chooses to have a very active physical lifestyle.
Full-endoscopic lumbar discectomy is an innovative, minimally invasive alternative to microdiscectomy for patients with symptomatic lumbar disc herniations. IELD and TELD offer two complementary surgical corridors to spinal pathology and allow for treatment of the vast majority of lumbar disc herniations. There is level one evidence suggesting that full-endoscopic spine surgery results in similar functional outcomes compared with microsurgical technique, and has a favorable rate of perioperative complications.

Cavernous sinus thrombosis (CST) is a rare, life-threatening disorder that can complicate facial infection, sinusitis, orbital cellulitis, pharyngitis, or otitis or following traumatic injury or surgery, especially in the setting of a thrombophilic disorder. Early recognition of cavernous sinus thrombosis which, often presents with fever, headache, eye findings such as periorbital swelling, and ophthalmoplegia, is critical for a good outcome. Despite modern treatment with antibiotics and anticoagulation, the risk of long-term sequelae, such as vision, diplopia, and stroke, remains significant. This activity examines when cavernous sinus thrombosis should be considered, how to properly evaluate this condition and the role of the interprofessional team in caring for patients with this condition.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

26. INVESTIGATIONS
Radiologic
• Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) : Gold standard
• Contrast enhanced Cranial computed tomography scan
• Proton MR spectroscopy, Radiolabelled leucocyte scan
• Skull x-rays
Others
• Aspirate for microbiological assessment +/- cytology
• Full blood count/peripheral blood film
• Blood culture
• Erythrocyte sedimentation rate/ C-reactive protein
• Others: Echocardiography ,Hb genotype, Chest X-ray, Quanteferon,RVS
26
34. Indications for surgery
• Obtain culture specimen
• Significant mass effect
• Raised intracranial pressure
• Evidence of foreign body or gas containing abscess
• Proximity to ventricles
• Poor neurological condition
• Inability to obtain weekly CT scan
• Fungal abscess
• Failure of non operative management
• Multiloculated abscess
34
35. Surgical options
• Aspiration
• Via Needle
• Free hand aspiration
• Stereotactic guided
• Neuroendoscopic aspiration
• Intraoperative ultrasound guided
• Surgical excision via a craniotomy
35
36. Aspiration
• Stereotactic aspiration recommended for small, multiple abscess or
when located in inaccessible or eloquent area
• Neuroendoscopic treatment, when compared to stereotactic
aspiration, has additional advantage of more complete drainage and
lavage especially in multiseptated or intraventricular abscess
• Associated repeated procedure
36
37. Indications for craniotomy and abscess excision
• Presence of foreign body
• Post traumatic/ gas containing abscess
• Superficial located abscess with thick membranes
• Peripheral abscess resistant to aspiration or antibiotics
• Cerebellar abscess
• Abscess that results from fistulous communication
37
38. Contraindications for craniotomy with abscess excision
• Abscesses in cerebritis stage
• Deep seated abscesses in eloquent areas
• Multiple abscesses
38
39. Specific Considerations
• Multiple abscess(5% -50% )- surgical(aspiration) or medical
only/combination
• Cerebellar abscess(6-35%) -Posterior fossa craniotomy advised+/-
ventriculostomy, however burr hole aspiration has emerged as a
satisfactory method
• Brainstem abscess-Posterior fossa craniotomy
• Tubercular abscess- AntiTb with drainage
• Subdural and epidural abscess- surgery(evacuation and membrane
excision) plus antimicrobial therapy
39
40. Medical Therapy
• Indicated for extremely poor surgical candidates with
• Microabscess(<2cm-debatable)
• Multiple abscess
• Cerebritis stage
• Inaccessible localization
• Concomitant meningitis, ependymitis
• Improvement on antibiotics therapy
40
42. Duration of antibiotic
• Numerous recommendations
• 6-8 weeks IV, followed by 2-3months oral
• 12 weeks IV, for medical therapy alone
• Post excision- 4 to 6 weeks antibiotics
• Triple high dose therapy- 2 weeks IV, followed by 4 weeks oral
• 3-12 months antimicrobial for the immunocompromsed
42
43. Radiographic monitoring
• Cranial scans weekly during the course of therapy
• One week after discontinuation of therapy
• Scan one month later
• Monthly or bimonthly until radiographic resolution
43
44. Role of Steroids
• Controversial
• Indications:
• Impending brain herniation
• Progressive neurological deterioration
• Associated massive edema and mass effect
• Prolonged use is discouraged
44
45. Role of anticonvulsants
• Legg et al advocated 5year course for all patient with brain abscess.
• Muzumdar etal recommended discontinuation after 2 years of seizure
free, with no epileptic activity on EEG
• Also anticonvulsant is recommended for children who develop
seizure, most authors recommend providing at least 3 months of
prophylaxis if no more seizures have occurred.
45
46. Role of Hyperbaric oxygen
• In addition to surgery, hyperbaric oxygen therapy has been reported
to be a useful adjunct
• More useful in fungal brain abscess
• Although no randomized, prospective studies have been performed
to assess its efficacy.
46
50. CURRENT TRENDS
• 16S Ribosomal sequencing
• Emphasis on stereotactic aspiration
50
51. CONCLUSION
• Intracranial abscesses are uncommon, serious, life-threatening
infections with varied aetiological agents and route of spread.
• Its numerous presentation may pose a diagnostic dilemma to the
clinician
• High index of suspicion, prompt response with appropriate
management will help to improve outcome
