Histologically proven gastric carcinoma was studied to establish the incidence and pattern of the disease in the Indian population of Durban. The incidence in this population was found to be low, 6.9/100,000/year. Over a 7-year period (1980-1986) 115 patients were treated for gastric carcinoma at R.
Diagnosis and treatment of Indian visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is extremely unsatisfactory. For diagnosis, demonstration of parasites in splenic/marrow smears remains the gold standard, though k39 rapid strip test is a useful method in regions where access to parasite demonstration is difficult.
To retrospectively confirm the suspected rickettsial disease (Scrub typhus) using a gold standard diagnostic test i.e. microimmunofluorescence in pediatric patients with acute febrile illness of unknown etiology. Two serological tests, Weil-Felix and Microimmunofluorescence were used to confirm
