<i>Background:</i> Nasal rinsing appears particularly suitable in the management of pregnant women with seasonal allergic rhinitis since no deleterious effects on fetus are to be expected. However, date, studies have specifically investigated this option. <i>Methods:</i> Pregnant were randomized intranasal lavage hypertonic saline solution 3 times daily (n = 22) versus local therapy 23) during a 6-week period corresponding pollen season. Patients invited keep record...
<h3>SUMMARY:</h3> Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is defined as acute of the type at least 30 dB over 3 contiguous frequencies that occurs within a 72-hour period. Although many different causative factors have been proposed, sudden still considered "idiopathic" in 71%–85% cases, and treatments are empiric, not based on etiology. MR imaging implemented with 3D FLAIR sequence has provided new insights into etiology loss. Herein, we review current management trends for patients loss, from...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the independent role gender in affecting prognosis patients with anterior tongue cancer.Patients recorded head and neck cancer registry Milano-Bicocca School Medicine between January 1981 December 1998 were reviewed. Female squamous cell carcinoma identified matched men for year diagnosis, age, TNM classification, histologic grading, treatment modalities. For each woman, two matched.Seventy-one women 142 satisfied our selection criteria. frequency...
ABSTRACT This paper reviews the diagnosis and treatment of temporal bone meningoencephaloceles, defined as herniation meninges or brain tissue into empty spaces within bone, i.e. tympanic mastoid cavity, through tegmen tympani antri respectively. It also describes current methods control cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks, which commonly present serous otorrhea rhinorrhea in addition to a variety symptoms, such conductive hearing loss. Imaging is mainstay diagnostic process. Management...
<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> Cross-sectional imaging of the temporal bone is challenging because complexity and small dimensions anatomic structures. We evaluated role flat panel angiography in cross-sectional by comparing its image quality radiation dose with a 64-section multisection CT scanner. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> retrospectively collected 29 images normal whole-head bones. Image was assessed 2 neuroradiologists, who rated visualization 30 structures 3-point ordinal scale. The...
The role of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSHL) is controversial due to the inhomogeneity clinical and MR protocols. aim this work relate early findings obtained immediately after admission, with presentation, audiological findings, outcomes treatment.Prospective observational study.Tertiary referral university center.Forty-seven patients (22 M, 25 F; age: 54.4 ± 17.5 yr) consecutively referred Department Emergency for ISSHL.All underwent...
Abstract Chronic adenoiditis (CA) is generally sustained by some infectious foci mainly located within the nasopharynx or in deep adenoidal pads and it characterized a complex interplay between bacterial species. The aim of this study was to assess efficacy safety topical nasal administration probiotic compound based on S. salivarius 24SMB oralis 89a children with CA terms reduction in: number acute infections (primary outcome), blockage space hypertrophic adenoids (secondary outcome). A...

Abstract Management of upper retropharyngeal abscesses in children is challenging. In surgical cases, ultrasound‐assisted intra‐operative procedures may be helpful to reach peculiar locations, thus reducing morbidity and complications rate.
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is a rare condition characterized by orthostatic headache, pulsatile tinnitus, vertigo, nausea, and fluctuating hearing loss; this latter seems to be due the development of cochlear endolymphatic hydrops following negative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure transmitted perilymphatic space through patent aqueduct. We here describe case bilateral progressive sensorineural loss (SNHL) caused an undiagnosed spontaneous CSF leak from skull base defect in...
