Vol -3, No -1January – March 2014
Incidence of varicocele is 19-40% among infertile men
Mechanism of varicocele causing male infertility unknown
It is probably only a variation in the normal anatomy of
testicular venous drainage
NICE guidelines(2013) do not recommend surgery for
varicocelectomy among infertile men as it does not
improve pregnancy rates
IUI or IVF/ICSI recommended mode of treatment
Whither Varicocelectomy?
Assess the well being of babies born out of
IVF/ICSI(fresh/frozen embryo transfers)
Incidence of congenital anomalies is 4%
No genito-urinary abnormalities observed in babies born
out of severe male factor fathers
Findings reassuring as they conform with that of natural
pregnancies in terms of congenital anomalies, growth and
development.
Follow up of ART babies
Dental procedures should be carried out on the day after
dialysis
Dosage of drugs excreted through kidney should be
lowered
Require special care

treatment of choice.
Case Reports
Case series of Seizure disorders in pregnancy, that are

Giant dumbbell trigeminal schwannoma which account
for <8% of intra cranial schwannomas pose a great surgical
challenge in complete removal
Kearns-Sayre syndrome, a rare neuromuscular disorder
whose first signs are ptosis of the eyes, is caused due to
mutations in mitochondrial DNA.
Case Reports
Clinical research falls into two categories-observational and
experimental
Observational studies are either analytical or descriptive
Experimental trials can be randomized or non-randomized
