Item Cavernous haemangioma of the rectum: an uncommon cause of rectal bleeding.(2003-01-17) Mathai, V; Vyas, F L; Jesudason, S RCavernous haemangioma of the rectum is an uncommon cause of rectal bleeding. Initial diagnosis is often elusive because of lack of awareness. For accurate diagnosis, investigations such as endoscopy, plain X-ray of the abdomen, barium enema and selective angiography of the inferior mesenteric artery are required. Complete surgical excision of the haemangioma and colo-anal sleeve anastomosis is the most favoured operative procedure to eradicate the disease. We report a case of cavernous haemangioma of the rectum and discuss its salient clinical features, investigations and management.Item Functional outcome of overlapping sphincter repair for anal incontinence.(1999-10-19) Jesudason, S R; Mathai, V; Gladwin, G; Muthusami, J C; Govil, SItem Magnetic resonance cholangiography as sole pre-operative determinant of resectability in hilar cholangiocarcinoma.(1997-07-01) Govil, S; Govil, S; Justus, A; Korah, I; Jesudason, S RItem Primary hyperaldosteronism--diagnostic approach and management.(1993-05-01) Seshadri, M S; Kanagasabapathy, A S; Cherian, A M; Nair, A; Jesudason, S RPrimary hyperaldosteronism was detected in 1% of patients evaluated for secondary hypertension in a referral hospital in Southern India. The presence of hypokalemia with inappropriate kaliuresis (24 hr. urine K > 20mEq) was an important diagnostic clue. High resolution CT scans were found to be useful for localising the tumour. Preoperatively nifedipine and spironolactone were employed to correct hypertension and hypokalemia. The same drugs were also found to be excellent for long-term control of hypertension and hypokalemia in patients who had bilateral adrenal hyperplasia and aldosteronism.Item A simple technique to identify the relationship of primary fistulous tract to anal sphincters.(1998-07-26) Jesudason, S R; Mathai, V; Muthusami, J C; Govil, S; Kuruvilla, RItem Wuchereria bancrofti induced pancreatitis.(1992-07-01) Jesudason, S R; Mathai, V; Muthusami, J C; Mathai, EA case of pancreatitis of filarial origin is reported for the first time. The patient presented with chronic pancreatic pain. Laparotomy revealed an inflammed pancreas and fine needle aspiration cytology confirmed pancreatitis. Imprint of a peripancreatic lymphnode revealed a microfilaria. He was successfully treated with Diethyl Carbamazine.
