Article Synopsis
- Bilateral sensorineural hearing loss can significantly impact a person's quality of life, with autoimmune inner ear disease (AIED) being one of the rare causes.
- AIED presents diagnostic challenges due to the absence of standard criteria, and the study reviewed 6 patients (3 male, 3 female) aged 24-35 who experienced rapid hearing loss associated with either primary AIED or systemic autoimmune diseases.
- Treatment involved systemic and inner ear steroids, showing varied responses, highlighting the need for early hearing rehabilitation to improve patient outcomes.
A Feasible, Low-Cost, Capsicum and Tomato Model for Endoscopic Sinus and Skull Base Surgery Training.
Indian J Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg
December 2022
To describe and standardize an easily available, viable, low-cost capsicum and Tomato model for endoscopic sinus and Skull Base surgery training. Rhinology fellows performed the following stimulated endoscopic sinus exercises using the capsicum and tomato models at our centre using a Karl Storz angled Endoscope and Medtronic Debrider with various angled blades. Each student dissected 10 specimens before training these procedures on human patients, and the benefit of the capsicum and tomato models training was evaluated.
