<h3>Importance</h3> Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects up to 60% of children with Down syndrome (DS) and may persist in half patients after adenotonsillectomy. Children DS who have persistent OSA often do not tolerate treatment positive pressure airway support devices or tracheotomy for their residual moderate severe OSA. The hypoglossal nerve stimulator is an implantable device that delivers electrical impulse anterior branches the response respiratory variation, resulting tongue base...
Objectives/Hypothesis Providing high‐value healthcare to patients is increasingly becoming an objective for providers including those at multidisciplinary aerodigestive centers. Measuring value has two components: 1) identify relevant health outcomes and 2) determine treatment costs. Via their inherent structure, care units consolidate complex patients. However, potential impact on decreasing costs less clear. The goal of this study was estimate the cost savings treating with laryngeal...
There is no consensus as to the timing of videofluoroscopic swallow studies (VFSSs) in determining resolving aspiration after laryngeal cleft repair. a growing literature on effect radiation exposure children.To modify previously published best-practice algorithm based review and our clinical experience maintain quality care provided successful type 1 repair, while reducing total number postoperative VFSSs by 10% or greater.The was modified multidisciplinary group at tertiary academic...
Objective: Report a series of cases in which patients have concomitant superior semicircular canal dehiscence (SSCD) and dehiscent tegmen tympani with Dural contact to the malleus head (DCMH). Methods: An analysis radiologic audiologic data 4 who presented SSCD DCMH at tertiary care institution. A pertinent literature review was performed. Results: Four (5 ears) had DCMH. In 3 unilateral DCMH, mean maximum air-bone gap 15 dB ear compared 50 without Of 5 ears air conduction threshold 250 Hz...
Objective Present a case of squamous cell carcinoma the temporal bone (SCCTB) arising in 61-year-old female with prior history cholesteatoma and persistent otologic symptoms review current literature regarding this disease presentation. Setting Tertiary academic center. Patient A left ear for which she had undergone surgery 54 years prior. The patient presented otorrhea since first developed exacerbation just to presentation at our department. clinical picture was highly suspicious...
Juvenile Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis is a Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection associated tumor that primarily affects children. Currently, there are no effective therapeutic reagents to treat this disease and patients often receive repeated surgeries at papilloma recurrence. Previous studies have shown promising results in treating HPV related tumors with immunological approaches. However, immune cell infiltration response JRRP has not yet be investigated. Using immunochemistry...
Tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy is one of the most common ambulatory procedures performed in children under 15. One rare yet serious complication tonsillectomy postoperative hemorrhage. Chronic tonsillitis, which an indication for tonsillectomy, has been shown to have increased risk Tonsilloliths tonsil stones associated cryptic tonsillitis. This 2020-2021 study examined whether tonsilloliths were a factor post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage convenience sample 187 pediatric patients.
Squamous cell carcinoma of the temporal bone (SCCTB) is a rare malignancy with relatively poor prognosis. Affected patients typically present locally advanced disease. Although few reports have implicated cholesteatoma as an etiologic factor for SCCTB, formal association between both entities remains unproven.
This case helps identify common aural foreign bodies in the pediatric population, understand management of bodies, and reviews special considerations that should be made with a tick as an body. is report one patient external auditory canal body at tertiary hospital which resulted therapeutic removal Dermacentor variabilis.
