Cataract surgery performed before 800 B.C.
(BMJ Publishing Group, 1975) P.N. Roy; K.S. Mehra; P.J. Deshpande
The general belief that the technique of cataract extraction in India in the Sushruta period (800 B.C.) was couching is no longer tenable. A study of the original text suggests that the method was more closely allied to the extracapsular extraction of recent times.

Serum electrophoretic pattern in osteoarticular tuberculosis
(Informa Healthcare, 1977) G.C. Prasad; K. Baldev; P.K. Shukla; P.J. Deshpande
A serum electrophoretic study was carried out in 37 established osteoarticular tuberculosis cases. the result of this study has been analysed according to severity and chronicity and also after treatment, including certain streptomycin-resistant cases. It has been observed that there was a decrease in albumin and an increase in Alpha2 and gamma-globulin fractions of serum protein as the disease became more advanced and chronic in nature. the administration of known antitubercular drugs reverses this phenomenon. the resistant cases revealed an increase in gamma-globulin fraction at almost the same level as observed in the untreated cases. © 1977 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.

Successful non operative treatment of high rectal fistula
(1976) P.J. Deshpande; K.R. Sharma
The present paper deals with a study of 50 cases having a high internal opening or an abscess cavity above the levator ani muscle. These cases of high rectal fistula invariably end up with complications after surgery in the form of injuries to the anal sphincters leading to incontinence. The term 'high rectal' denotes the types of fistulae having exceptionally long tracts and includes the 'high anal' and 'ano rectal' varieties according to Milligan Morgan's classification. The technique of treatment used involves ligating the entire fistulous tract with a caustic ligature without performing an excisional therapy. This ligature is prepared by repeatedly smearing a size 20 surgical thread with certain vegetable caustics as described in the ancient Indian literature and several times reported by us previously. The insertion of the thread into the fistulous tract can be achieved without much difficulty with the help of specially designed instruments. This treatment has been tried in 50 cases of high rectal fistula with exceedingly good results.
