Aippg jipmer

Is this any Entrance Exam named ‘AIPPG’ conducted by JIPMER? I listened name of this exam first time. So I want to get all information about AIPPG Examination? Provide me its notification to get information about age limit, minimum education, important dates etc. What is the fee for application of AIPPG submit at the JIPMER Campus?

Hi I would like to have the previous year question paper for the JIPMER entrance examination for reference purpose?

[Raman Vij]

The previous year question paper for the JIPMER entrance examinationyou’re your reference purpose is given below:

1. In Dysphonia Plica Ventricularis
(Ventricular Dysphonia) voice is produced by
ventricular folds
vocal cords
aryepiglottic fold
Epiglottis
Ans A

Dysphonia Plica Ventricularis (Ventricular Dysphonia)
Here voice is produced by ventricular folds (false cords) which have taken over the function of true cords. Voice is rough, low-pitched and unpleasant. Ventricular voice may be secondary to impaired function of the true cord
such as paralysiS, fixation, surgical excision, or tumours.

Ventricular bands in these situations try to compensate
or assume phonatory function of true cords.
Functional type of ventricular dysphonia occurs in
normal larynx . Here cause is psychogenic. In this type,
voice begins normally but soon becomes rough when
false cords usurp the function of true cords. Diagnosis is
made on indirect laryngoscopy; the false cords are seen to
approximate partially or completely and obscure the
view of true cords on phonation. Ventricular dysphonia
secondary to laryngeal disorders is difficult to treat but
the function al type can be helped through voice therapy
and psychological counsellin


2.Lupus of the larynx mostly affects
Posterior part
Anterior part
Subglottis
Hypopharynx
Ans B

Syphilis affects the larynx and produces ulcers. These may involve almost *any portion but usually they are anterior, involving the epiglottis. They are often associated with syphilitic manifestations in the mouth. Tuberculosis affects the posterior portion of the larynx and the bulb-like swellings of the arytenoids are almost pathognomonic. Ulcers when they occur are most marked posteriorly. This affection is associated with a blanching of the mucous membrane of the mouth and the presence of a white frothy mucus, which will lead the laryn-gologist to suspect the existence of the disease before a view of the larynx is obtained.


3. Lateral soft tissue X-Ray of neck may show "Thumb sign" in
acute epigiottitis
retropharyngeal abscess
laryngeal stenosis
fractures of larynx
Ans A
In radiology, the thumbprint sign, or thumbprinting, is a radiologic sign found on a lateral C-spine radiograph that suggests the diagnosis of epiglottitis. The sign is caused by a thickened free edge of the epiglottis, which causes it to appear more radiopaque than normal, resembling the distal thumb

4. Herpangina is caused by
Coxsackie virus
Herpes simplex
Staphylococcus
Fungus
Ans A

Herpangina, also called mouth blisters, is the name of a painful mouth infection caused by coxsackieviruses. Usually, herpangina is produced by one particular strain of coxsackie virus A (and the term "herpangina virus" refers to coxsackievirus A)[ but it can also be caused by coxsackievirus B or echoviruses.[2] Most cases of herpangina occur in the summer,[3] affecting mostly children. However, it occasionally occurs in adolescents and adults

5. 'Recruitment phenomenon' is seen in one of the following conditions.
Meniere's disease
Otosclerosis
Otitis media
Mastoiditis
Ans A

Most patients with Ménière's disease (MD) reveal abnormal vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) and the recruitment phenomenon, whereas most sudden deafness patients display normal VEMPs without the recruitment phenomenon


6. Which of the following is called the "Gateway of tears" ?
Killian's dehiscence
Rathke's pouch
Waldeyer ring
Sinus of Morgagni
Ans A

Killian’s dehiscence is a potential triangular gap between the oblique fibers of thyropharyngeus and the transverse fibers of cricopharyngeus (Thyropharyngeus and cricopharyngeus are 2 parts of the inferior constrictor of pharynx)
It is named after German ENT surgeon – Gustav Killian
It is through this gap that the herniation of pharyngeal mucosa occurs in case of pharyngeal pouch (Zenker’s diverticulum)
It is also called ‘gateway of tears‘ as it is a common site for perforation during oesophagoscopy


7. Cold-air caloric test is done with
Dundas Grant tube
Montgomery T tube
Jackons tube
Fuller's tube
Ans A

Clinical tests for vestibular functions
Nystagmus
Test for gaze evoked nystagmus
Fistula test
Siegalization
Hennebert’s sign
Fitzgerald Hallpike bithermal caloric test
Canal paresis
Directional preponderance
Modified Kobrak test
Dundas Grant Cold air caloric test
Dix Hallpike manoeuvre
Nystagmus in BPPV
Epley’s manoeuvre


Tripod fracture is usually referred to as a fracture of
nasal bone
Mandible
Maxilla
Zygoma
Ans D

Fractures of zygoma are the most common fractures of the upper cheek, the most common of which is the tripod fracture of zygomatic bone involving 3 separate breaks of bones of skull, through: 1. infraorbital foramen and canal to the infraorbital groove 2. zygomaticoparietal suture of lateral margin of orbit 3. zygomatic arch usually at its narrowest point, where the suture between the zygomatic process of temporal bone and temporal process of zygomatic bone occurs.


8. Early Laryngeal cancer which neither impaired cord mobility nor invaded cartilage or cervical nodes is treated by
Chemotherapy
Radiotherapy –
Hemilaryngectomy
Total laryngectomy
Ans C

Hemilaryngectomy provided acceptable percent of local and regional recurrences, and good functional results: respiration, swallowing and voice quality. Therefore it could be the first choice surgery technique in treatment of T2 laryngeal carcinoma.

To discuss the treatment options for laryngeal cancer, one must differentiate early (I-II) and advanced (III-IV) stage disease.
Subsite location of the primary tumor, glottic, supraglottic or subglottic is also an important consideration when selecting therapy.
Early-stage laryngeal carcinomas (stage I-II) are ideally treated with voice-saving surgery.

Popularized and legitimized by Steiner and Ambrosch, transoral laser microsurgery is ideal for the treatment of early-intermediate glottic and supraglottic cancer. It is performed under suspension micro-laryngoscopy with a CO2 laser.

Advanced-stage laryngeal carcinomas (stage III) are usually treated with concurrent chemo-radiation therapy for organ preservation.
On the other hand, advanced laryngeal cancer (stage IV) is usually treated with total laryngectomy, reconstruction, and adjuvant postoperative chemoradiation therapy
Larynx carcinoma is repeatedly


10. Gelle's test is a popular test done for
Presbycusis
Serous otitis media
Otosclerosis .
Meniere's disease
Ans C

Gelles test was once a popular test to find out stapes fixation in otosclerosis, but now has been superceeded by tympanometry


11. Aqueous flare in inclocyclifis is due to
A. Platelets
B. pigments
C. RBCs
D. Proteins
Ans D
• Aqueous flare is a pathognomonic sign of uveitis and is due to breakdown of the blood-ocular barrier with subsequent leakage of proteins into the anterior chamber. Aqueous flare is best detected using a very focal, intense light source in a totally darkened room. The passage taken by the beam of light is viewed from an angle. In the normal eye, a focal reflection is seen where the light strikes the cornea. The beam is then invisible as it traverses the almost protein- and cell-free aqueous humor in the anterior chamber. The light beam is visible again as a focal reflection on the anterior lens capsule and then as a diffuse beam through the body of the normal lens due to presence of lens proteins. If uveitis has allowed leakage of serum proteins into the anterior chamber then these will cause a scattering of the light as it passes through the aqueous. Aqueous flare is therefore detected when a beam of light joining the focal reflections on the corneal surface and the anterior lens capsule is visible traversing the anterior chamber. A slit lamp provides ideal conditions for detecting flare, however the beam produced by the smallest circular aperture on the direct ophthalmoscope held as closely as possible to the cornea in a completely darkened room and viewed transversely will also provide excellent results. The slit beam on the direct ophthalmoscope is not as intense and does not provide as many "edges" of light where flare can be appreciated most easily. Assessment of flare may be easier after complete pupil dilation due to the apparent dark space created by the pupil. Combined assessment of IOP and aqueous flare should be performed whenever glaucoma or uveitis is suspected because of the frequency with which these conditions co-exist.


12. The following laser beam is used in LAS 1K (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis)
A. Excimer
B. Argon
C. Diode
D. Krypton

Ans A
LASIK is a surgical procedure which combines a micro-keratome (an automated knife for shaving the cornea) and an Excimer Laser (an ultraviolet light beam) to reshape the cornea.
