The study aimed to evaluate the current risk factors for severe perineal tears in a single university-affiliated maternity hospital.An obstetric database of 31 784 consecutive women who delivered from January 2007 December 2009 was screened cases third-degree or fourth-degree tears. Four controls, matched by time delivery, were selected each case third- tear. Maternal and parameters analyzed compared between control groups.Sixty (0.25% all vaginal deliveries) had (53 women) (seven group...
The aims of this study were to report our center's experience with infratemporal fossa (ITF) tumors, review the treatment modalities and outcomes.Data patients that underwent resection ITF tumors in a single tertiary referral medical center collected analyzed.Sixty-three included. Sarcoma was most common pathology (18; 29%). surgical approach preauricular-orbitozygomatic (24; 38%), followed by endoscopic, craniofacial resection, combined approaches. Forty-seven (75%) required reconstruction,...
Abstract Introduction Isolated nasal obstruction (INO) is a common complaint of multiple etiology. The preoperative evaluation patients presenting with and deviated septum (DNS) does not typically include imaging. benefits performing computed tomography (CT) in the setting are inconclusive. Objective Assessing contribution CT to surgical treatment non-sinusitis INO DNS. Methods A retrospective cohort study on referred surgery for due DNS or turbinate hypertrophy between 2006 2015. Data was...
To examine the value of a subjective numerical rating scale (NRS) in initial evaluation patients suspected suffering from unilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) until formal audiogram is available.Prospective noncontrolled clinical study.Thirty-one consecutive referred to emergency department due SSNHL and with no other aural pathology by history or physical examination were enrolled. Patients asked characterize severity their using an NRS 1 (normal hearing) 6 (complete...
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) can be the presenting symptom of vestibular schwannoma (VS). Usually, steroidal treatment is given before magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) performed. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> The aim this study was to investigate whether there a different pattern response after SSNHL in patients with and without VS, order determine rapid improvement serve as predictor presence VS....
Objective: To measure the subjective visual vertical (SVV) in patients suffering from peripheral vestibular disorders versus controls, using a smartphone-based test designed to simulate bucket test, order validate it as an available tool for clinician. Study design: Prospective cohort study. Setting: Academic tertiary medical center. Patients: Forty-five adult were recruited study, 25 had disorders, and 20 did not (controls). Intervention: All underwent conventional bucket-SVV (b-SVV) SVV...
The necessity to routinely carry out histopathologic examinations of surgically removed polyps in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis bilateral nasal (CRSwNP) is uncertain. aim this study was describe the histopathology from a large series who underwent endoscopic sinus surgery for CRSwNP and rate neoplasms. This retrospective histopathological result all functional whom histologic examination performed, 2006 2015, tertiary medical center. Data on demographics whether lesion suspected...
Introduction Endoscopic endonasal surgery (EES) has become the preferred approach for pituitary tumor resection. Nevertheless, research on quality of life related to adenoma is scarce. Objective The aim study evaluate short-term in patients after endoscopic resection tumors and find predictors poor (QOL) outcome. Materials Methods A prospective cohort was conducted, including all who underwent EES a tertiary medical referral center. Recruited completed Anterior Skull Base Disease-Specific...
Several surgical procedures have been described for the treatment of respiratory distress secondary to vocal fold immobility (VFI), but contribution posterior cordotomy (PC) tracheostomy weaning or prevention has not studied in depth, particularly acute setting. The objective this study was show effectiveness PC relieve dyspnea, prevent need tracheostomy, and enable decannulation patients with VFI.We conducted a retrospective reviewed medical records all whose dyspnea warranted intervention...
Objective: The endoscopic endonasal approach is being increasingly used for the resection and reconstruction of anterior skull base lesions. Since its description in 2006, vascularized nasoseptal flap (NSF) has become workhorse defects with a significant decrease incidence CSF leak. objective this study to present our experience use report complications associated use.
The endoscopic approach to skull base lesions is widely regarded as less invasive and associated with reduced morbidity, offering favorable outcomes, particularly in terms of short-term quality life (QOL). However, date, long-term assessments both nasal function tumor-related QOL remain limited. To evaluate patients' nasal- after endonasal resection pituitary tumors detect predictors for poor postoperative QOL. Study Design: This study was a prospective cohort study.
Background: Fatigue is thought of as a leading cause iatrogenic accidents. A significant deterioration in qualitative balance function has been shown sleep deprived individuals. Aim/Objectives: To quantify the degree to which impaired by deprivation (SD) post-call medical residents. Methods: Medical residents voluntarily underwent computed dynamic posturography (CDP) before and after an on-call night, at identical time day. Order test performance was random avoid behavioral learning. Each...
Objective: To describe the effect of sinusitis on Weber test lateralization which normally lateralizes toward ear a conductive hearing loss and away from sensorineural loss; to investigate whether presence an extra-aural condition might affect results. Study Design: Descriptive study. Setting: Tertiary referral center. Subjects Methods: Consecutive adult patients with maxillary and/or frontal were included (study group), as well normal sinus structure function (control group) enrolled...
