Lack of Efficacy long‐term, low‐dose azithromycin in chronic rhinosinusitis: a randomized controlled trial. Allergy 2011; 66 : 1457–1468. Abstract Background: In persistent rhinosinusitis (CRS), conventional treatment is often insufficient. Long‐term, administration...
INTRODUCTION: There is increasing interest in the underlying bone of paranasal sinuses as an important player recalcitrant Chronic Rhinosinusitis. Close inspection CT scans often reveals areas increased density and irregular thickening sinus walls. This osteitic could at least partly explain, why inflammation mucosa persists. METHODS: We searched PubMed for all relevant studies, using following text words: chronic rhinosinusitis, sinusitis, bone, osteitis, osteomyelitis, histology,...
The aim of this study was to ascertain the most reliable objective measurement for assessment nasal patency by investigating relationship between peak inspiratory flow, oral and index in relation patient's subjective perception regarding obstruction.Prospective cohort study.This included 131 volunteers both genders, aged 18 years or older, with without symptoms, who were able give informed consent, completed protocol, could speak write Dutch fluently. Peak flow performed computed. results...
Minimum cross-sectional area of the nasal passage on CT (CT-MCA) is an objective computerised determination minimum CT. CT-MCA was evaluated before and after surgery external valve using 'lateral crus pull-up' procedure (LCPU). The outcomes were compared with other currently available tests for patency.Prospective cohort study.This study included 34 patients undergoing use LCPU technique. performed subjective perception Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) scale such as acoustic...
To assess the long-term efficacy of irradiated homologous rib grafts (IHRGs) for both augmentation and support function in rhinoplasty general specific recipient sites within nose.A retrospective study was conducted at an academic medical center to evaluate loss volume IHRGs 9 nose.We studied 66 patients, with a total 177 IHRGs, dating back years, average follow-up 51 months. The rate resorption increased duration follow-up. Complete found 1 IHRG, moderate observed 55 (31%). Resorption...
Collapse of the nasal vestibule during inspiration is a frequently encountered symptom, often caused by weak or medially displaced lateral crura in lower cartilages. Numerous techniques are available for lateralizing and strengthening using cartilage grafts suture techniques. In most cases, they involve an external rhinoplasty approach additional incisions. An elegant endonasal method widening component valve area described herein. The basis procedure permanent submucosal spanning between...
To assess outgrowth and aesthetics of the nose in children after reconstruction cartilaginous nasal septum with autologous cartilage grafts on polydioxanone plate.Prospective nonrandomized case series.University hospital.Six patients (5 boys 1 girl), aged 3 to 11 years, septal abscess.The septa 6 a history abscess partial or complete destruction were reconstructed auricle rib fixed plate.Nasal was measured by length amount tip projection compared standardized growth curves.

The stigma of nasal deformity due to a congenital cleft lip-palate has an undeniable influence on the affected patient's life. It is therefore interest investigate if efforts reduce esthetic and functional impairments by rhinoplasty (single or multiple) can result in increased satisfaction with appearance self-perception similar noncleft population. Retrospective scoring before after using validated Derriford Appearance Scale (DAS-59) subsequent statistical evaluation comparison datasets...

Objectives/Hypothesis: Current methods that measure cross-sectional areas of the nasal passage on computed tomography (CT) do not determine minimum area may be an important factor in airway resistance. Objective measurement dimensions help diagnosis, as well choice and evaluation surgical treatment for upper insufficiencies. Study Design: Retrospective clinical study. Methods: Software was developed automatically calculates CT. Results: Evaluation shows minimization algorithm software...
The cartilaginous part of the nasal septum a child with septal hematoma or abscess is at risk destruction. Consequently, noses these children can collapse, causing saddle nose deformity, and in time, normal outgrowth both maxilla will be disturbed. In adulthood, they have an underdeveloped deformity too much upward rotation tip retroposition midface. Sequelae like should prevented by prompt diagnosis surgical intervention. this article, management hematomas abscesses discussed special focus...
Rhinoplasty modifies the nasal pyramid, thereby also modifying airway.
Background Knowledge of tip supporting structures is crucial for successful rhinoplastic surgery. The aim this study was to provide detailed anatomical and histological descriptions the structures. Methods Serial coronal sections entire external noses from seven cadavers were studied after staining by Mallory-Cason Verhoeff-Van Gieson procedures. Results conclusions We found no evidence ligaments between cartilaginous- bony parts nasal skeleton, skin skeleton. Instead, we a...
Abstract In rhinoplasty, osteotomies are performed to manipulate the bony nasal vault improve function and/or aesthetics of nose. This article provides an overview instruments used for osteotomies, as well indications and techniques in profileplasty.
The purpose of this investigation is to compare the functional effect different surgical techniques used for addressing each section nose.Prospective study 57 consecutive rhinoplasty patients. Patients were evaluated with peak nasal inspiratory flow (PNIF), Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE), and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) obstruction before 1 year after rhinoplasty. Additionally, esthetic evaluation nose was obtained Rhinoplasty Outcomes (ROE). According technique address portion...
We present a 50-year-old male with <i>Pneumocystis carinii</i> infection involving the middle ear and external auditory canal as first manifestation of previously unknown HIV infection. In case therapy-resistant otitis polypoid mass in histological evaluation should be considered to rule out malignancy or pathogens, like carinii</i>, that cannot cultured. Oral intravenous antiprotozoal agents are treatment line current practice. Exploration os petrosum is never required.
