Rectal prolapse involves the descending of the rectum through the anal canal. It can involve the inner mucosa alone (mucosal prolapse), or all layers of the rectal wall (full-thickness prolapse). Mucosal prolapse is more common in children, presents as less than 4cm of protrusion, and can be treated with injections or surgery. Full-thickness prolapse presents as a protrusion over 4cm, involves the entire rectal wall, and is more common in elderly females. Surgical treatment depends on the degree of prolapse but involves approaches to fixate and support the rectum.
OPEN INGUINAL HERNIA REPAIR- OPERATIVE SURGERY
#surgicaleducator #operativesurgery #openinguinalherniarepair #usmle #babysurgeon #surgicaltutor
Dear viewers,
• Greetings from “Surgical Educator”
• Because of the popular demand by viewers of the YouTube channel “Surgical Educator”, I have decided to create and upload videos on common surgeries.
• I have already uploaded videos on open and Laparoscopic Appendicectomy, Thyroidectomy, Modified Radical Mastectomy and open and
Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
• In this video today, I have discussed Open Inguinal Hernia Repair.
• However, these videos are not real surgeries but the theoretical aspect of operative surgery like going through an atlas of operative surgery.
• Along with these videos, I recommend you to watch real operative surgery videos as well and I will give a link for each surgery in the end of the video as end-cards, which I think will be very useful.
• This will give a very good opportunity for the surgical trainees to mentally rehearse various surgical steps in a sequential manner prior to actual surgery. You can watch the video in the following links:

Hernia is an abnormal swelling and expulsion of tissue. abdominally hernia usually involves groin. groin henias can be either inguinal or femoral. here is a brief review about hernias, types, classification, assessment and management.
Approximately 75% of abdominal wall hernias occur in the groin.
The lifetime risk of inguinal hernia is 27% in men and 3% in women.
And hence Of inguinal hernia repairs, 90% are performed in men, and 10% are performed in women.
The incidence of inguinal hernia in men has a distribution, with peaks before the first year of life and after age 40.
Indirect inguinal and femoral hernias occur more commonly on the right side.
This is attributed to a delay in atrophy of the processus vaginalis after the normal slower descent of the right testis to the scrotum during fetal development.
The predominance of right-sided femoral hernias is thought to be caused by the tamponading effect of the sigmoid colon on the left femoral canal
The prevalence of hernias increases and the likelihood of strangulation and need for hospitalization increase with aging.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

2. Anatomy of Rectum
approximately 12–18 cm in length and is conveniently divided into
three equal parts:
the upper third mobile and has a peritoneal coat
the middle third peritoneum covers only the anterior and part of
the lateral surfaces;
the lowest third lies deep in the pelvis surrounded by fatty
mesorectum
3.
4. Blood supply
Superior rectal artery
-the direct continuous of
inferior mesenteric artery
Middle rectal artery
-a branch of internal iliac
artery
Inferior rectal artery
-branch of internal
pudendal artery
6. Mucosal Prolapse
The mucous membrane and submucosa of the rectum protrude outside
the anus for approximately 1–4 cm.
On palpation of prolapsed mucosa between the finger and thumb it
is composed of double layer of mucous membrane
7. Etiology
• In infant: Undeveloped sacral curve, Reduced resting anal tone
• Children:
• Attack of Diarrhoea
• Loss of weight loss of fat in ischiorectal fossa,
• Others fibrocystic disease, neurological causes, mal development of pelvis
• Adult:
1. Torn perineum
2. Straining from urethral obstruction
3. Atony of sphincter
8.
9. • Partial prolapse may follow an operation for fistula in ano where large
portion of muscle has been divided
• Prolapsed mucous membrane is pink
10. Treatment
•In infants and young children
–Digital repositioning
• parents are taught to replace the protrusion, and any
underlying causes are addressed.
–Submucosal injections
• If digital repositioning fails after 6 weeks
• injections of 5% phenol in almond oil under GA
aseptic inflammation
the mucous membrane becomes tethered to the muscle
coat.
12. Adults
• Local treatments
– Submucosal injections of phenol in almond oil
– Application of rubber bands
• Excision of the prolapsed mucosa
– Unilateral can be excised
– Circumferential endoluminal stapling
13. Complete Prolapse
• all layers of the rectal wall involved
• usually associated with a weak pelvic floor and is as much as 10-15 cm.
• Less common
• more common in elderly people.
• Common in female (6:1)
• Fecal incontinence (approx.50% of adults)
14. Mucosal prolapse Full thickness prolapse
Protrusion of mucosa and submucosa
outside of the anus
Protrusion of the all layer of the rectum
Protrusion length < 4 cm > 4cm (as much as 10-15 cm)
Palpation between finger and
thumb
No more than double layer mucous
membrane
Much thicker, consist of double thickness of
entire wall
Common in children Common in adult (M:F=1:6)
More common Less common
15. Features of full thickness prolapse
> 5 cm prolapse contains anteriorly between its
layers a pouch of peritoneum.
When large, the peritoneal pouch contains small
intestine which returns to the general peritoneal
cavity with a characteristic gurgle when the
prolapse is reduced.
The anal sphincter is patulous and gapes widely on
straining to allow the rectum to prolapse.
16. Clinical Features
• Something coming out per rectum during
defecation
• May even on standing ,walking or coughing
• Red
• Fecal incontinence (75%)
• May reduce spontaneously or required
digital reduction
18. Contd…….
Child with intussusception is usually sick, while the child with prolapse is
well,
To distinguish, pass finger between the prolapsed bowel and the anal
sphincter. This is possible with intussusception,
but
in rectal prolapse, the protruding mucosa is continuous with the
perianal skin, and the finger will not pass this junction
20. Indications
• Abdominal rectopexy lower rate of recurrence
• But in case of elderly and very frail patient perineal operation
• Abdominal procedure risks damage to the pelvic autonomic nerves,
• resulting in possible sexual dysfunction
• Perineal approach
• usually preferred in young men.
21. Perineal Approach
• Most commonly used
1.Thiersch operation
• Aimed to place a steel wire or, more commonly, a silastic or
nylon suture around the anal canal
• Become obsolete.
–Suture would often break or
–Cause chronic perineal sepsis, or
–Both
–Anal stenosis so created would produce severe functional
problems.
22. 2.Delorme’s operation
•Prolapsed mucosa is removed circumferentially over its length.
•Underlying muscle plicated with a series of sutures in such a way that
when these are tied, the rectal muscle is concertinated towards anal canal
•Anal mucosa sutured circumferentially to rectal mucosa remaining at
the tip of the prolapse.
•Prolapse is reduced, and a ring of muscle is created above the anal canal,
which prevents recurrence.
23.
24. 3. Altemeier’s procedure
•Excision of the prolapsed rectum and associated sigmoid colon from
below
•Construction of a coloanal anastomosis.
25. Abdominal approach
• Principle to replace and hold the rectum in its proper position
• Recommended in patients with complete prolapse who are otherwise
in good health
• Many operative procedures
• Well’s operation
• Ripstein’s operation
26. • Well’s opertion
• Rectum is fixed firmly to the sacrum by inserting a sheet of polypropylene
mesh between them
• Ripstein’s operation
• Hitching up the rectosigmoid junction by a Teflon sling to the front of the
sacrum
• sutured rectopexy
• Suture the mobilised rectum to the sacrum using 4-6 interrupted non-
absorbable sutures
27. • Abdominal rectopexy
• Complication
• severe constipation combine with resection of the sigmoid
colon (Goldberg)known as resection rectopexy
• Approximately 50% of adult patients with a complete rectal prolapse
are incontinent, and rectopexy cures only about one third.

31. Answer this ?
1. How will you distinguish:
Hemorrhoids vs Rectal Prolapse
Intussusception vs Rectal Prolapse
Partial vs complete rectal prolapse
2. Stepwise management of rectal prolapse
The end
Editor's Notes
Begins where the taenia coli of the sigmoid colon join to form a continuous outer longitudinal muscle layer at the level of the sacral promontory and end at the anorectal junction.
