Early and accurate in vivo diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is necessary for quickly distinguishing treatable from untreatable rapidly progressive dementias future therapeutic trials. This early becoming possible using the real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) seeding assay, which detects minute amounts disease-specific pathologic prion protein cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or olfactory mucosa (OM) samples.To develop an algorithm CJD by RT-QuIC assay on CSF samples, OM...
Surgical approaches to the lateral skull base, internal auditory canal (IAC), and petrous bone are widely known have been extensively recorded. Despite benign nature limited dimensions of lesions located in this anatomical region, extirpative surgical often required reach remove disease. The aim present report was describe our initial experiences with minimally invasive endoscopic base.Retrospective review patients' charts video recordings from surgery.Twelve patients were included study....
The endoscopic approach to attic cholesteatoma allows clear observation of the tensor fold area and consequently, excision fold, modifying epitympanic diaphragm. This permits good removal direct ventilation upper unit, preventing development a retraction pocket or recurrence, with functional results.An isthmus block associated complete is necessary condition for creation an cholesteatoma. During surgical treatment cholesteatoma, required restore region. Use microscope does not allow exposure...
Although middle ear aeration is certainly related to eustachian tube (ET) function, other anatomic factors may play an important role in ventilation of these spaces, particularly the epitympanum.A prospective case series study group with retrospective comparison.Eight patients affected by non-self-cleaning attic retraction pockets or cholesteatoma and normal tubal function (verified type A tympanogram Williams' test) underwent endoscopic surgery. Anatomic findings were noted collected,...
To describe the inferior retrotympanic anatomy from an endoscopic perspective.This was anatomic study on a retrospective case series.During November 2009 and December 2009, videos middle ear procedures carried out between June 2007 stored in our database were retrospectively reviewed. Surgeries which region visualized included study. Accurate descriptions of findings made for each group.The final group consisted 25 procedures. In 14/25 subjects, bony ridge connecting portion styloid...
To investigate the anatomic limitations of endoscopic transcanal approach to sinus tympani (ST), in particular, how this might allow a complete visualization ST recesses and propose morphologic classification using computed tomography examine if could be useful for surgeon preoperative planning decide type ST.Case series.Forty patients affected by middle ear disease with involvement were included our study. All underwent tomographic scan temporal bone. tympanomastoid surgery intraoperative...
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to describe the first case series in which an exclusive endoscopic transcanal transpromontorial approach (EETTA) used treat small vestibular schwannomas (VSs) and meningiomas internal auditory canal (IAC). METHODS authors performed a retrospective review patients who had undergone surgery using EETTA IAC at 2 university tertiary care referral centers during period from November 2011 January 2015. RESULTS Ten underwent via for treatment VS University...
Abstract Objectives: Patients undergoing endoscopic middle ear surgery require reconstruction procedures that are able to give adequate functional results, with particular attention ventilation of routes and mastoid tissue preservation. Study Design: Outcome research on a prospective case series in tertiary university referral center. Methods: A 27 patients attic retraction pockets underwent surgical procedures. Three kinds tympanoplasty were selected performed. Results: In all subjects, it...
We aim to investigate the factors associated with recurrent disease following surgery for primary acquired attic cholesteatoma. hypothesize that minimal invasive, mucosal sparing operation techniques have beneficial effects on outcome in terms of recurrence.Retrospective study.Tertiary referral center.A total 110 patients presenting cholesteatoma were enrolled study. Patients undergoing revision or a canal wall down procedure, as well residual excluded from study.During follow-up recurrence...
Objectives To describe our departmental experience in the surgical repair of tegmen tympani defects using a combined transmastoid/minicraniotomic approach. Design Retrospective review videos from surgery and patients' charts. Setting Tertiary university referral center. Participants Twenty-two patients who underwent associated with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage and/or meningocele/meningoencephalocele by Main Outcome Measures A retrospective charts or antri CSF leakage, temporal lobe...
The aim of this study was to examine the premise that endoscopic ear surgery (EES) is associated with a low rate complications (intraoperative and postoperative).Retrospective review at two institutions.Tertiary referral center.The included 825 patients who underwent exclusive EES between 2008 2016 Otorhinolaryngology-Head Neck Surgery Department Modena University Hospital, 2014 Verona Hospital.Exclusive (tympanoplasties, second look or revision tympanoplasties, myringoplasties,...
