Endotype in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) has been established the last decade. However, exact immunologic profile of CRS still controversy because it a considerable heterogeneity. Therefore, we investigated various inflammatory mediators according to different nasal tissues and compared them within same subject.We collected uncinate process mucosa (UP) polyp (NP) from controls, without NP (CRSsNP) with (CRSwNP). Expression levels 28 including T helper (Th) 1, Th2, Th17, proinflammatory...
Abstract Fungus ball is the most common form of non-invasive fungal sinusitis, and maxillary sinus commonly involved site. Maxillary fungus (MFB) accounts for a considerable proportion unilateral sinusitis. The prevalence MFB has recently increased; however, its contributing factors are unclear. This study analyzed association between dental implants. One hundred one patients who underwent surgery were divided into two groups based on surgical biopsy results: bacterial sinusitis (UBS, n =...
BACKGROUND: Neutrophils present as major inflammatory cells in refractory chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), regardless of the endotype. However, their role pathophysiology CRSwNP remains poorly understood. We investigated factors predicting surgical outcomes patients focus on neutrophilic localization. METHODS: employed machine-learning methods such decision tree and random forest models to predict CRSwNP. Immunofluorescence analysis was conducted detect human neutrophil...
To investigate the neurocognition of aged patients with chronic tinnitus and reveal possible association between severity cognitive function, attention to mild impairment (MCI).Fifty-eight elderly (≥65 years old) (≥6 months) were prospectively enrolled in this study. All assessed neurocognitive batteries including Korean version patient health questionnaire-9 (K-PHQ-9), Lawton instrumental activities daily living scale (K-IADL), Montreal assessment (MoCA-K). After initial evaluation exclude...
Purpose: To evaluate the Japanese Epidemiological Survey of Refractory Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis (JESREC) classification, a clinical scoring system, for predicting disease control status in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and to investigate prognostic factors.Materials Methods: In total, 134 CRSwNP patients who underwent functional endoscopic sinus surgery after maximal medical treatment were enrolled.These categorized into four groups according JESREC...
(1) Background: Various surgical approaches have been introduced to resect inverted papillomas (IP) stemming from the maxillary sinus (MS). This study aimed compare recurrence rates of IPs originating MS according various modalities. (2) Methods: A total 155 cases sinonasal were categorized into three groups approach adopted: endoscopic resection via middle or inferior meatus antrostomy (ESS), ESS with Caldwell−Luc canine fossa trephination (ESS CL), and expanded (ExEA) including medial...
For the treatment of sinus surgery-induced osteitis in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), oral or intranasal administration corticoids is generally used, although it has critical limitations and unavoidable side effects. To overcome these limitations, we designed dexamethasone (Dex)-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microparticles with bone-specific binding affinity, which could release encapsulated Dex a sustained manner on exposed bone after surgical wound nasal cavity. In previous...
Sphenoethmoidal (Onodi) cells originate from the ethmoid sinus and are located at posterior lateral direction. The obstruction of ostium leads to accumulation mucous fluid eventually formation a mucocele. Onodi cell mucoceles can cause visual loss or disturbance due adjacency orbital apex. Here we report case mucocele with field disturbance, where patient underwent an endoscopic surgery 12 days after initial symptom. After 21 onset, subjective symptom started subside. For patients recommend...
Background and Objectives The ideal flap for head neck reconstruction should be pliable, have sufficiently long pedicle minimize donor defects. Anterolateral thigh free (ALTFF) radial forearm (RFFF) been the workhorse flaps reconstruction. However, ALTFF is too bulky RFFF leaves a conspicuous scar on donner site. Medial sural artery perforator (MSAPFF) possible alternative, which has benefit of thin low site morbidity ALTFF. Here, we evaluated first time usefulness MSAPF in Korean patients....
