The National Integrated Medical Association (NIMA) today organised a seminar on “Infertility and neuro surgery” under the Continued Medical Education (CME) project.

Dr Surendra Gupta, secretary, NIMA and Dr Rajesh Thaper welcomed the guest speakers, Dr Rajesh Pasricha, Dr Kumud Pasricha and Dr Shubhang Aggarwal, all from Satyam Hospital, Jalandhar. He appreciated the NIMA doctors for attending the seminar in maximum number. He urged NIMA doctors to guide infertile couples about the scientific IVF /Test Tube Baby techniques.

Dr Pasricha in his talk on ‘Advances in neurosurgery,” discussed the latest surgical procedures. He said that timely neurosurgery’ could save many lives, in otherwise life threatening. He advocated surgical intervention in Trigeminal Neuralgia, as surgery could put a permanent lid on this otherwise severe painful diseases. He shared his many surgical feats with NIMA doctors.

Dr Shubahng Aggarwal spoke on Arthroscpy and Joint Replacement Surgery. He discussed the latest implants being used in replacement surgery, not only of HIP or knee joints, but of elbow, wrist, metatarsal and ankle joints also. He showed how a simple implant could save people from being crippled and handicap.

Dr Pasricha dealt with the infertile couple evaluation, investigation, and personalised treatment protocol. She said that IVF cycle should be started early in women with polycystic ovaries (PCOS). As ovulation inducing oral medications can finish up all the eggs, IVF surely benefits in such cases. She advocated IVF in low-sperm count cases, but ICSI (Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection) in very-low sperm count couples.

She said that frozen semen storage was ideal in NRI people, where males were usually abroad and ladies could conceive even while staying back in India. Seman sample of the husband stored in a frozen state could an be used later on, she said.
