Varying degrees of necrozoospermia are common findings in cases of male sub-fertility; however, it is rare to find persistent and 100 % necrozoospermia. A case of persistent 100 % necrozoospermia was presented in this paper, where aneuploidy analysis was carried out on sperm. No known associations like thyrotoxicosis, genital infection, spinal injury and diabetes were found. Sperm fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) was carried out to evaluate sperm aneuploidy for chromosome 1, 9, 12, 13, 16, 18, 21, X and Y and did not show any excess of aneuploidy over controls. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt on meiotic segregation analysis on 100 % necrozoospermic patients.

3.Enhanced recovery after surgery in liver resection: current concepts and controversies

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) attenuates the stress response to surgery in the perioperative period and hastens recovery. Liver resection is a complex surgical procedure where the enhanced recovery program has been shown to be safe and effective in terms of postoperative outcomes. ERAS programs have been shown to be associated with lower morbidity, shortened postoperative stay, and reduced cost with no difference in mortality and readmission rates. However, there are challenges that are unique to hepatic resection such as safety after epidural catheterization and postoperative coagulopathy, intraoperative fluids and postoperative organ dysfunction, need for low central venous pressure to reduce blood loss, and non-lactate containing intravenous fluids. This narrative review briefly discusses these concerns and controversies and suggests revisiting some of the strong recommendations made by the ERAS society in light of the recent evidence.
