Objectives: The main objective of this study was to determine the rate of outpatient management in a population of patients undergoing bilateral ethmoidectomy. The secondary objectives were to evaluate the quality of outpatient management (rate of unscheduled overnight admission, readmission rate, complications) and to compare inpatient and outpatient groups to determine which elements of the phenotype and care pathway favored outpatient management.
Materials And Methods: A single-center observational study included 204 patients operated on for bilateral ethmoidectomy.
Objectives: The "silent sinus syndrome" (SSS) also known as imploding antrum syndrome or chronic maxillary sinus atelectasis consists of painless enophthalmos and inward retraction of the ipsilateral maxillary sinus walls. The aims of the present study were: i) to look for a correlation between the level of volume asymmetry of the maxillary sinuses and the presence of ophthalmological and rhinosinusitis signs, ii) to determine the benefits of a middle meatal antrostomy in SSS cases, and iii) to evaluate the preventive role of neuronavigation surgery in the morbidity of this specific surgery.
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of 13 patients operated on for a SSS by middle meatal antrostomy, with the aid of neuronavigation in 7 cases.
Conclusion: A supramaximal stimulation at 2 mA during intraoperative electromyographic (EMG) facial nerve monitoring appears to be a simple and effective parameter to predict immediate postoperative injury.
Objectives: To assess the role of systematic intraoperative facial nerve monitoring in predicting the early functional outcomes obtained after parotidectomy.
Methods: Data were collected from patients who underwent parotidectomy.
