Surgical Approaches and Outcomes of Short Nose Correction: A Descriptive Systematic Review of the Literature.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to describe all published techniques of short nose correction released by surgeons over the years and summarize their outcomes in a descriptive systematic review of the literature.

Patients And Methods: A computerized literature search was conducted using 5 major databases. All original studies discussing correction methods and/or outcomes of shortened noses were included.

Tubed Temporalis Fascia for Nasal Dorsal Contouring: A Novel Technique.

Introduction: Nasal dorsum irregularities may occur after nasal trauma or as a postrhinoplasty complication. Here, we present a novel technique using temporalis fascia (TF) grafting for primary and revision rhinoplasty to repair the nasal dorsum, hide nasal irregularities, and improve nasal contouring.

Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted from January 2019 to June 2019 and evaluated nasal dorsal contouring using the TF in a tubed form.

Evaluation of Scar Outcome After Alar Base Reduction Using Different Surgical Approaches.

Purpose: Alar base reduction was first performed in 1892, when Robert Weir began performing surgery to correct nasal flaring. Our study objective was to investigate scar outcomes after alar base reduction with different surgical approaches.

Materials And Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent alar base reduction at King Abdulaziz University Hospital.

The effect of ketamine versus fentanyl on the incidence of emergence agitation after sevoflurane anesthesia in pediatric patients undergoing tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy.

Background: Emergence agitation (EA) has been documented as a common side-effect of sevoflurane anesthesia. This prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was designed to compare the effects of ketamine versus fentanyl, administered 10 min before the end of surgery on the development of EA.

Methods: A total of 120 children aged 3-7 years of American Society of Anesthesiologists I-II physical status were randomly assigned to one of three equal groups receiving either ketamine 0.

A human case of otoacariasis involving a histiostomatid mite (Acari: Histiostomatidae).

A 31-year-old Saudi man was seen at an ear, nose, and throat clinic at Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, with bilateral itching in the external auditory canal. On otoscopic examination, the skin lining the ear canal was thickened with whitish sheets of sloughed cells and thick discharge. Large numbers of mites of an undescribed species closely related to members of the genus Loxanoetus (Histiostomatidae) were present.
