OBJECTIVE Quality of life after tracheostomy was addressed by measuring its impact on well being and body image perceptions. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING A controlled study in a laryngotracheal clinic tertiary referral center. Three groups were studied: 24 cannulated, 19 decannulated, 20 noncannulated patients. They filled up 3 conventional questionnaires. RESULTS (1) Satisfaction‐with‐life scale: reduced scores detected between cannulated (2) Personality traits: neuroticism extroversion: no...
We sought to study the clinical behavior and treatment outcome of isolated sphenoid sinusitis (ISS).We conducted a retrospective patients diagnosed with ISS in tertiary medical center over 20 years.Of 72 ISS, 79 percent had acute symptoms, 15 chronic 6 incidental radiological findings. Fifteen were children. Most between January April (P < 0.01), increasing incidence was noted years 0.001). Headache most common presenting symptom (85%). Chronic complained also nasal symptoms (82%). Six major...
Abstract Mutations in more than 150 genes are responsible for inherited hearing loss, with thousands of different, severe causal alleles that vary among populations. The Israeli Jewish population includes communities diverse geographic origins, revealing a wide range deafness‐associated variants and enabling clinical characterization the associated phenotypes. Our goal was to identify genetic causes loss this population, determine relationships genotype, phenotype, ethnicity. Genomic DNA...
<h3>Objectives</h3> To identify mutations in the<i>SLC26A4</i>gene individuals with nonsyndromic hearing loss and enlarged vestibular aqueduct, to design a predicted model of the pendrin protein, characterize novel by means localization mammalian cells effect mutation on model. <h3>Design</h3> Validation its exclusion more than 300 normal hearing. <h3>Setting</h3> A laboratory genetics research, clinical laboratories, an otolaryngology department at Tel Aviv University, medical centers...
Acute invasive fungal rhinosinusitis has been associated with high mortality rates.We aimed to explore the contribution of novel detection and treatment methods on outcome immunosuppressed children acute rhinosinusitis.The records all a hematologic or oncologic disease who developed between 2005-2020 were reviewed.Thirty-four patients included. Aspergillosis mucormycosis diagnosed in 20 (59%) 12 (35%), respectively. Panfungal polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was change 36% patients. A more...
Immunosuppressive therapy places pediatric patients at risk of developing life-threatening sinonasal infections. Diagnosis and treatment are challenging owing to nonspecific signs symptoms. The aim this study was present our department's experience with the surgical management acute rhinosinusitis in immunosuppressed children.The records all children a hematologic or oncologic disease who underwent endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for from January 2005 May 2014 were reviewed. Data...
Objectives: Acute invasive fungal rhinosinusitis has been associated with high mortality rates. We aimed to explore the contribution of novel detection and treatment methods on outcome immunosuppressed children acute rhinosinusitis. Design: Retrospective observational cohort study. Setting: A tertiary children’s hospital. Participants: The records all a hematologic or oncologic disease who developed AIFR between 2005-2020 were reviewed. Results: Thirty-four patients included. Aspergillosis...
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy heated humidified high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy as a conservative treatment option for newborns suffering from stenosis, condition that often leads respiratory distress and feeding difficulties. Given increasing utilization HFNC in various upper lower tract indications, characterized by its flow-based mechanism minimal mucosal damage, we seek investigate potential benefits specific patient population.
Orbital complications are the most common complication of acute rhinosinusitis, especially among pediatric patients. While cases treated with antibiotics alone, severe presentation may demand surgical intervention. Our goal was to determine which factors predict need for surgery and investigate role computerized tomography in decision process.A retrospective review all children hospitalized between 2001-2018 orbital rhinosinusitis a university-affiliated children's hospital.A total 156 were...
Congenital unilateral choanal atresia (CA) is not considered an emergent condition and should cause respiratory distress in the newborn. Therefore, surgical repair of CA usually delayed. This description a newborn with congenital that caused significant distress, recurrent cyanotic episodes, severe feeding difficulties highlights exception to rule.
Unilateral vocal cord paralysis (UVCP) is a known complication of thyroid surgery, due to iatrogenic recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, with reported rates 2%-5% in children. The gold standard for assessing function flexible nasendoscopy (FNE) examination, which considered high-risk contraction the COVID-19 virus. Intraoperative ultrasonographic assessment (IUA) non-invasive and relatively simple procedure performed supine position, during spontaneous breathing, following reversed...
To better distinguish NOG-related-symphalangism spectrum disorder (NOG-SSD) from chromosomal 17q22 microdeletion syndromes and to inform surgical considerations in stapes surgery for patients with NOG-SSD.Mutations NOG cause a variety of skeletal that often include conductive hearing loss. Several microdeletions chromosome lead severe clinical characteristics overlap NOG-SSD. Isolated deletion has not been described, therefore the contribution these is unknown.Two families autosomal dominant...
