EDITORIAL
As the leaves of the autumn have started rendering a celebra-
tion of colours of the fall and we are yet to come out of the
engrossing milieu of the Sharadiya, the BOGS Times is again
ready to adorn your hands and boost up your mind.
The stalwart sharing events of his life and ideas this time is
Prof. Nishith Kumar Ghosh whose interview keeps a positive
note to inspire the younger generations.
The topic routine antenatal Anti D prophylaxis (RAADP) in
Rh-ve mother has been chosen to spice up the debate. The
chapter of Rh–ve mother is one which has been read and
discussed infinite number of times by us but the concept of
routine antenatal prophylaxis is an emerging one.
Family planning has always been a burning issue in a hugely
populated country like ours but vasectomy has been less
practiced and accepted by our people. To highlight the
advantages and the ease of performing No Scalpel Vasectomy
(NSV) the president and the Hony. secretary of BOGS have
penned down an article with their joint endeavor.
The bulletin is yours and therefore it expects and demands a
critical appraisal from you to expand its
dimensions and improve its presentation.
Happy reading!
Jai hind
Long live BOGS

NO SCALPEL VASECTOMY (NSV)
Dr. Sudhir Adhikari
Dr. Kalidas BakshiProf. G & O, Medical College & Hospital, Kolkata
Senior Consultant, AMRI, Salt Lake, Vision Care, Mukundapur, Bhagirathi Neotia Maternity Hospital
In global contraceptive use the great majority burden offertility control including its risk falls on women (75%, UN-2009). Sterilization remains the most widely used method,over 264 million worldwide. Out of these female steriliza-tion is 232 millions, which is 32.3% of all contraceptivesused.
Man can play the most important role in reproductivehealth. Because of lack of contraceptive choice, becauseof fear of loss of virility, loss of physical strength – NSV (NOSCALPELVASECTOMY) – remained as less popular method.
NSV is one of the first in the genre of minimally invasivesurgery, developed in China in 1974 by Lishunquing.Remember, it is long before the first reported laparoscopiccholecystectomy in 1987 by Phillipe Mouret.
Thus NSV, a simple procedure for male permanentsterilization was popularized to the rest of the world in1985.
First NSV in Govt. Hospital in India was performed in1992 at MaulanaAzad Medical College, Delhi.
Dr. Ramchandra Murti Kaza, Chairman NSVSI, MasterTrainer, Govt. of India & Professor of Surgery, Maulana AzadMedical College, Delhi is working hard since 1997 to makethe NSV techniques more popular all over India.
Dr. Baljit Kaur, a lady gynaecologist from Amritsar,Punjab is working hard since 2007. Her vision is Man, Mind,Motivation – to bring man forward for NSV. She is populariz-ing the same techniques used in the sterilization of straydogs which is called MIVUT technique (Minimally InvasiveVas Occasion Techniques)
In India others who worked hard are Dr. Pradhan fromSikkim, Dr. Shukla from Baroda, Dr. Jha from Bihar, Dr.Krishna Murari Singh from U.P., Dr. Jagadish fromKarnataka, Dr. Sham Singh from Haryana, and Dr. SubhashAbroi from Kashmir.
Now NSV has become a popular method of male steril-ization.
There was an international conference on NSV inJanuary 2011, at Goa, India. Representative of 16 countriesparticipated. Remember it was a conference on
.There was another international conference on “Con-
traception” in May 2011 at Kolkata. The NSV procedure wasshown in live workshop.
In West Bengal it is getting popular day by day. In most ofthe districts the NSV procedure is practiced for malesterilization. In some centre number of male sterilization ismore than female sterilization.
NSV is very simple. It takes only 3-5 mins in experthands. Clients can be discharged within 3 hours. He is fit towork after 3 days. He becomes sterile after 3 months (or

There is a training centre at National Medical College. Master traineesare available to train NSV procedure in a 5-day course under theleadership of Dr. Biplab Bhattacharyya.

The procedure is appropriate for men who are sound inmind and have at least one living child & between 21-60years of age.
Aggressive campaigning, posters, video shows, adver-tisements, seminars, conference and good incentives toclients – will make NSV a popular method of contraception.NSV can make a very important contribution to the health &family welfare programme all over the world.

Debate: Routine Antenatal Anti D Prophylaxis
For: Routine Antenatal Anti-DProphylaxis in Rh-Negative Mothers isMandatory
Against: Routine Antenatal Anti-DProphylaxis in Rh-Negative Mothers isUseless
Tulika JhaAssistant Professor, Department of Obs & GynR.G.Kar Medical College, Kolkata
Avishek BhadraRMO, Department of Obs & GynNational Medical College, Kolkata
Hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) is one of thecommonest cause of peri natal mortality, neo natalmorbidity and mortality in India and all over the world aswell. The incidence of HDN varies from 4.4-7.2 cases per100,000 births. One of the commonest and preventablecauses of HDN is allo immunisation of a woman with RhDnegative blood group, carrying a fetus with an RhD positiveblood group. The overall risk of such immunization is 13.2%.This risk has been reduced to 0.2% by the routine use ofanti-D immunoglobulin inoculated to the mother afterchild birth and also after sensitizing events likemiscarriage, termination of pregnancy, ectopic pregnancy,ECV, invasive tests for genetic testing. etc. Despite thesemeasures taken to ensure low allo immunisation, a smallpercentage of fetuses still manifest features of HDN. Thiscould be due to sensitization occurring during the thirdtrimester due to silent bleeds (feto maternalhaemorrhage) and not due to any of the ‘sensitising’ eventsmentioned above.
This has prompted many a trial and based uponevidence available now, many organizations haverecommended RAADP. The NICE guidelines and the NHMRC,Australia both recommend two doses of 125mcg of anti-Dimmune globulin, at 28 and 34 weeks of gestation forantenatal prophylaxis to all non sensitized Rh-negativewomen (Level II evidence). The SOGC has alsorecommended it but the dose is 100-120 mcg. TheACOG hasalso advocated two doses of 120 mcg of the immuneglobulin. The best evidence on the antenatal use of Rh Dimmunoglobulin comes from the Cochrane Database ofSystematic Reviews (Crowther 2001). The review assessedthe trials and found a reduced incidence of immunizationfrom 1.8% to 0.18% when 100 or 120 mcg of immunoglobulinwas given at 28 weeks or beyond in a single or double dose.
Previously, cost and supply of the immunoglobulinwere limiting factors in its routine antenatal use. With thereduced prices of the immunoglobulin, free supply andavailability free of cost in the government health carefacilities, RAADP should be practiced always. Moreover, thetreatment cost of a fetus or baby affected with HDN, ismuch more than the price of two antenatal doses of theanti-D.
Groups advocating against the RAADP, site the chancesof Hepatitis B & C virus infection but good quality controland safety measures have almost eliminated this risk.Studies have also shown that the babies born to motherswho had received RAADP do not have statisticallysignificant hematological indices when compared to other
babies (Maayan-Metzger et al 2001). Anaphylacticreactions following the use of the anti-D immunoglobulinare also rare.
With all these evidence in hand, don’t you thinkRAADP of Rh negative mothers should be mandatory if thewoman wishes so?
While postnatal administration of anti-Dimmunoglobulin to rhesus negative women who give birthto a rhesus positive baby has been considered as anacceptable and beneficial routine intervention, thequestion of whether it is appropriate to offer routineantenatal anti D prophylaxis has been hotly debated onpractical, professional and political grounds. The debateconcerns the issue of ‘silent’ feto-maternal transfusion.
Most of the studies cited in support of RAADP areretrospective. Although RAADP is a completely separateentity from anti-D immunoglobulin required for potentiallysensitising events in the antenatal period, one of thestrongest arguments against RAADP is that several studiesreported that professionals failed to offer anti-D in about48 per cent of cases where women experienced potentialsensitising events.
There is risk of augmentation or enhanced anti-Dimmunisation, where a woman who is given passive anti-Dduring the antenatal period could, upon exposure to rhesuspositive cells via transplacental haemorrhage mount aprimary immune response. Another concern is the effect ofpassive anti-D on the unborn baby including immunesystem compromise, virus transmission and problemsduring later reproduction for rhesus negative baby girlsexposed to anti-D in utero.
Around 40 per cent of women who would receiveRAADP would be carrying rhesus negative babies, andtherefore would have received this unnecessarily. Womenwho are pregnant with their last child are also among thosewho would not benefit from RAADP.
The number of women needed to treat to avoid onecase of sensitisation is approximately 278. Considering thecost of anti D immunoglobulin and the economic burden itcauses on the health system, the cost-effectiveness ofRAADP is doubtful.
Thus to conclude, even if we feel that evidence showsRAADP to be effective, this does not necessarily mean it isnecessary or beneficial for all rhesus negative women.
