The skin is composed of two main layers, the epidermis and dermis. Various types of incisions can be made through the skin for surgical procedures, with considerations including accessibility, extensibility, security, and following natural lines of tissue tension. Different suturing methods can be used to close wounds, including everting, inverting, interrupted, running, and locking stitches.

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.
• In this video today, I have discussed Open Right Hemicolectomy .
• 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 all my teaching videos in the following link:

Introduction to the topographical anatomy and operative sugerykavanvyas1
this short note contains all the necessary information about the basics of topographical anatomy and surgery , which is very helpful to beginners , especially medical aspirants.
Episiotomy, also known as perineotomy, is a surgical incision of the perineum and the posterior vaginal wall generally done by a midwife or obstetrician. Episiotomy is usually performed during second stage of labor to quickly enlarge the opening for the baby to pass through.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
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.

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.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN HEALTHCARE.pdfAnujkumaranit
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It encompasses tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

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
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!

2 Case Reports of Gastric Ultrasound
2. The skin is the largest and heaviest organ of the
body. The two main layers that compose the
integument are ….
Epidermis
Dermis
The combined thickness of the epidermis and
dermis ranges from 4 mm and 1.5 mm .
3. The epidermis is the outermost layer.
It contains no organs, glands, nerve endings, or
blood vessels. It renews itself every 15 to 30
days.
Epidermal layers are..
Stratum corneum
Stratum lucidum
Stratum granulosum
Stratum spinosum
Stratum basale
4. The dermis is
composed of papillary
and reticular layers of
flexible connective
tissue.
The dermis contains
pain
and touch receptors,
glands, blood vessels,
and lym-phatics . It is the
key layer in wound repair
and tissue healing.
5. Surgical Incision….
A cut made through the skin to facilitate an
operation or precedure.
It should be the aim of the surgeon to employ the type
of incision considered to be the most suitable for that
particular operation to be performed. In doing so,
three essentials should be achieved :
1. Accessibility
2. Extensibility
3. Security
6. Natural line of tension correspond to the natural orientation
of collagen fibers in the dermis .
Generally parallel to the orientation of the underlying muscle
fibers.
Austrian anatomist, Karl Langer (1819-1887) described how
incisions could be more cosmetic if natural cleavage lines were
followed when planning the surgical incision.
The angle of the incision should be no more than 30 degrees at
each margin .
7.
8. A correct incision
provides..
◦ a large area to easily
permit dissection
◦ Repair of lesions
◦ Heal Rapidly
◦ Without scars limiting
mobility
◦ Preserve sensation
◦ Avoid painful scars
9. They are
responsible for
◦ An Insufficient
access
◦ Necrosis
◦ Contractures
◦ Painful scars
10.
11.
12. Before the procedure begins, the surgeon
chooses the most suitable incision for the
procedure being performed. Certain things
of consideration are ….
• Condition of the patient.
• Knowledge of previous surgery.
• Natural lines of tissue tension (Langer’s
lines) .
• Maximum exposure of surgical site and
adjacent structures .
• Ability to extend the incision if necessary .
• Minimum trauma and scar formation.
16. 1) Midline Incision
Almost all operations in the
abdomen and retroperitoneum
Advantages :
- almost bloodless
- no muscle fibers are divided
- no nerves are Injured
- good access to upper
abdominal viscera
- very quick to make as well as
to close
-can be extended full lenght of
abdomen curving around
umblical scar.
17. 2) Paramedian Incisions
Has 2 theoretical
advantages:
-it offsets vertical Incision
to right or left, providing
access to lateral str. such as
spleen or kidney-closure is
theoretically more secure
because rectus muscle can
act as a buttress between
reapproximated posterior
and anterior fascial planes.
is placed 2 to 5 cm lateral to
midline
18. 2) Paramedian Incision
Disadvantages:
1. It tends to weaken and strip off the muscles from its lateral
vascular and nerve supply resulting in atrophy of the muscle
medial to the incision.
2. The incision is laborius and difficult to extend superiorly as
is limited by costal margins.
3. It doesn’t give good access to contralateral structures.
19. 1)Kocher Subcostal Incision
It affords excellent
exposure to gall bladder
and biliary tract and can
be made on left side to
afford access to spleen.
İs started at midline , 2 to 5
cm below the xiphoid , and
extends downwards ,
outwards and paralel to and
about 2.5 cm below costal
margin
Especially used in
cholecystectomy.
20. 2) Transverse Muscle dividing
In newborn and infants , this incision is preferred bcs
more abdominal exposure is gained per lenght of
incision than with vertical exposure
Because infants’ abdomen longer transverse than
vertical girth.
Also true of short, obese adult
21. 3) McBurney Incision (muscle split )
İncision of choice most
appendicectomies
The level and lenght of incision
will vary according to thickness of
abd. wall and suspected position of
apendix.
is made at the junction of middle
third and outer third of a line
running from umblicus to anterior
superior iliac spine,McBurney
point.
Originally placed the incision
obliquely from above laterally to
below medially.
Also used in left lower quadrant to
deal with certain lesion of sigmoid
colon such as drainage of
diverticular abscess.
22.
23. 4) Oblique Muscle Cutting Incision.
Eponym of Rutherford- Morrison Incision
Extension of McBurney incision by division of oblique
fossa
Can be used for right and left sided colonic resection,
caecostomy or sigmoid colostomy..
24.
25. 5) Pfannenstiel Incision
Used frequently by gynecologist and urologist for
access to pelvic organ, bladder, prostate and for c-
section.
is usually 12 cm long and is made in skin fold
approximately 5 cm above symphysis pubis.
26. 6) Maylard Transverse Muscle Cutting Incision
gives excellent exposure to pelvic organ
Skin incision is placed above but parallel to traditional
placement of Pfannenstiel incision ..
27.
28. Either right or left
Converts pleural and peritoneal cavities into one
common cavity
Thereby gives excellent exposure
Right incision may be particularly useful in elective
and emergency hepatic resections
Left incision may be used in resection of lower end of
esophagus and proximal portion of stomach.
Incision is extended along line of 8th intercostal
space,the space immediately distal to inferior pole of
scapula.
29. Methods of wound closure include sutures, staples, clips, tapes, and glues.
Everting sutures: These interrupted (individual stitches) or continuous
(running stitch) sutures are used to evert skin edges.
a. Simple continuous (running): This suture can be used to
close multiple layers with one suture. The suture is
not cut until the full length is incorporated into the
tissue (see Fig. 28-8, A).
b. Continuous running/locking (blanket stitch):
A single suture is passed in and out of the tissue layers and looped
through the free end before the needle is passed through the tissue for
another stitch.
Each new stitch locks the previous stitch in place.
Methods of suturing….
30. c. Simple interrupted:
Each individual stitch is placed, tied, and cut in succession
from one suture (see Fig. 28-8, C).
d. Horizontal mattress:
Stitches are placed parallel to wound edges. Each
single bite takes the place of two
interrupted stitches (see Fig. 28-8, D).
e. Vertical mattress:
This suture uses deep and superficial bites, with each
stitch crossing the wound at right angles. It works
well for deep wounds. Edges approximate well (see
Fig. 28-8, E).
31. 2. Inverting sutures:
These sutures are commonly used for two-layer anastomosis
of hollow internal organs, such as the bowel and stomach.
Placing two layers prevents passing suture through the lumen
of the organ and creating a path for infection. A single layer
is placed for other structures, such as the trachea, bronchus,
and ureter. The edges are turned in toward the lumen to
prevent serosal and mucosal adhesions. The number of layers
is proportional to the quality of the blood supply. Stitches can
be interrupted or continuous.
32.
33.
34. Endoscopic sutures are available as
ligatures and preknotted loops or with curved or
straight, permanently swaged needles for use through
an endoscope.
The ligatures are fashioned into loosely knotted loops
before being passed through the endoscope to tie off
vessels and tissue pedicles. After the loop is placed
around the target site, the knot is slid into position
and tightened. The ends are cut with endoscopic
scissors and removed through the endoscope.
