    Abstract: Context: Swine Flu caused by Influenza virus of H1N1 strain is a highly infectious respiratory disease. Knowledge and awareness among the community regarding the containment of spread of Swine Flu is the most important weapon available to halt the epidemics of swine flu. Aims: The aim was to assess the knowledge and practices related to swine flu prevention and management in school students of Bhavnagar. Settings and Design: This was a cross sectional descriptive studycarried out at 2 schools of Bhavnagar during February-March 2015. Methods and Material: Selection of schools was done by convenience sampling. The selected schools were visited and classes were randomly selected from available classes using a currency note. Pre-designed pre-tested questionnaire was applied to total 119students of selected class rooms. Statistical analysis: Analysis was done in Epi Info 7 and Simple proportions and percentages were calculated. Results: Almost all school students had heard about swine flu disease and 66% knew about the causative agent. Television, friends and relatives were the most common source of information. Around 84% school students mentioned fever while 76% mentioned running nose as a symptom of Swine Flu. Eighty two percent school students knew coughing-sneezing as a mode of transmission. Only eleven percent school students knew that swine flu can also spread by hand shaking. Eighty four percent of the school students were aware that a medical test & treatment is available for diagnosis & management of Swine Flu. Half of the school students knew that a vaccine is available for Swine Flu. Eighty three percent school students mentioned use of face mask; while 68% mentioned avoiding crowded placesas a preventive measure followed by them. Seventy percent school students told that they would avoid goingto school if they have symptoms of swine flu. More than half of the school students would prefer to visit government hospital while 44% school students would consult a General Practitioner in case they develop symptoms of Swine Flu. Most of them were ready to get vaccinated against Swine Flu if offered a vaccine. Conclusions: The school students are having good knowledge regarding the disease and the causative agent of swine flu. Television, friends and relatives was the commonest source of information listed by school students. Fever, running nose and cough are the commonest symptoms known to school students. The school students are having good knowledge about mode of transmission, preventive measures, testing and treatment available for swine flu. They should be identified as messengers for spreading awareness messages regarding swine flu in the community. They are good sources of communication with adequate knowledge and should be used for this purpose.

    Abstract: Although lipomas are the most common benign tumours of the head and neck, the involvement of the skull base is rare and it is also very rare for a lipoma to undergo osseous metaplasia to become an ossifying lipoma or osteolipoma. We present a case of a solitary osteolipoma involving the skull base in a 17-year-old girl. A few cases of osteolipoma involving the head and neck have been reported, but this may be the first reported case of a solitary osteolipoma involving the skull base with extension to the infratemporal fossa and parapharyngeal space. The computed tomography (CT) scan helped to clinch the diagnosis and the histopathology confirmed it. The clinical presentation, role of CT scan, surgical approach used, histological features and the review of literature are discussed.

    Abstract: In the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, an increased incidence of ROCM was noted in India among those infected with COVID. We determined risk factors for rhino-orbito-cerebral mucormycosis (ROCM) post Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) among those never and ever hospitalized for COVID-19 separately through a multicentric, hospital-based, unmatched case-control study across India. Methods We defined cases and controls as those with and without post-COVID ROCM, respectively. We compared their socio-demographics, co-morbidities, steroid use, glycaemic status, and practices. We calculated crude and adjusted odds ratio (AOR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) through logistic regression. The covariates with a p-value for crude OR of less than 0·20 were considered for the regression model. Results Among hospitalised, we recruited 267 cases and 256 controls and 116 cases and 231 controls among never hospitalised. Risk factors (AOR; 95% CI) for post-COVID ROCM among the hospitalised were age 45–59 years (2·1; 1·4 to 3·1), having diabetes mellitus (4·9; 3·4 to 7·1), elevated plasma glucose (6·4; 2·4 to 17·2), steroid use (3·2; 2 to 5·2) and frequent nasal washing (4·8; 1·4 to 17). Among those never hospitalised, age ≥ 60 years (6·6; 3·3 to 13·3), having diabetes mellitus (6·7; 3·8 to 11·6), elevated plasma glucose (13·7; 2·2 to 84), steroid use (9·8; 5·8 to 16·6), and cloth facemask use (2·6; 1·5 to 4·5) were associated with increased risk of post-COVID ROCM. Conclusions Hyperglycemia, irrespective of having diabetes mellitus and steroid use, was associated with an increased risk of ROCM independent of COVID-19 hospitalisation. Rational steroid usage and glucose monitoring may reduce the risk of post-COVID.

    Abstract: ABSTRACTInflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a benign disorder of locally aggressive nature. It is an indolent tumor with a slowly progressive courseand varied manifestation presenting with a wide range of clinical manifestations depending on the site of origin. We present a case of IMT in themaxillary sinus presenting with hemifacial pain, oculomotor palsy and ptosis which was successfully treated with endoscopic local excision and oralsteroid therapy.Keywords: Plasma cell granuloma, Maxillary pseudotumor, Maxillectomy, Steroid therapy, Radiotherapy.
