To assess factors related to residual dizziness (RD) in patients who underwent successful canalith repositioning procedures (CRPs) for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).Prospective cohort study.Academic center.Ninety-seven consecutive with BPPV of the posterior semicircular canal were initially enrolled. Diagnosis was assessed according clinical history and bedside evaluation. All treated CRPs until nystagmus disappeared. Three days after treatment, presence RD investigated. If...
Background: The diagnosis of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) involving the lateral semicircular canal (LSC) is traditionally entrusted to supine head roll test, also known as yaw test (SHYT), which usually allows identification pathologic side and BPPV form (geotropic vs. apogeotropic). Nevertheless, SHYT may not always allow easy detection affected canal, resulting in similar responses on both sides intense autonomic symptoms patients with recent onset vertigo. newly introduced...
Residual dizziness is a disorder of unknown pathophysiology, which may occur after repositioning procedures for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. This study evaluates the relationship between regular daily physical activity and development residual treatment vertigo.Prospective observational cohort study.Academic university hospital.Seventy-one patients admitted with vertigo involving posterior semicircular canal were managed Epley's procedure. Three days successful treatment, underwent...
Spontaneous canalith jam is an uncommon form of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo mimicking acute vestibular neuritis. We described for the first time a spontaneous horizontal semicircular associated with typical canalolithiasis involving contralateral posterior canal (PSC), illustrating how latter condition modified direction-fixed nystagmus during head movements. An 81-year-old woman persistent referred to our center. Video-Frenzel examination showed right-beating in primary gaze...
There is a great number of medical conditions causing loss tissue affecting upper lip, nasal base, columella and membranous septum; in our case wide resection relapsing squamous cell carcinoma required challenging reconstruction to preserve function aesthetics, guaranteeing oncological safety. We propose modification classical nasocheek advancement flap, avoiding alar lobule detachment order minimize the risk deformity. Concomitant cartilage graft was contraindicated, since need adjuvant...
Saliva is an essential body fluid. It important in maintaining oral health, taste acuity, mastication, deglutition, digestion, regulation of flora, cleansing, voice and speech articulation. In the elderly, glandular parenchyma undergoes involution cellular component, this leads to a reduction production saliva. Qualitative quantitative alterations biological fluid can cause patient discomfort quality life decline. This often translates into xerostomia, whose real meaning mouth dryness. We...
Introduction Chronic rhinitis (CR) represents a widespread inflammation with high incidence in the general population. Although it is generally considered benign condition, CR has relevant impact on quality of life and requires specific treatment approach. Objective The aim present study was to investigate efficacy glycyrrhizin mannitol intranasal chronic using cytological analysis subjective evaluation symptoms. Methods A total 55 patients suffering from were enrolled study, 34 allergic...
Background: Continuous irrigation of the duct with isotonic saline is one fundamental stages a successful sialendoscopic procedure. It allows for an adequate luminal distension removal debris and mucous plugs conservative treatment strictures. This procedure, which commonly involves use medical syringe, can be laborious, it often necessary to interrupt during surgery due high resistance saline. Setting: Academic university hospital. Method: We propose device consists high-pressure syringe...
