Transseptal Suturing Septoplasty in Elderly.

Assessing the effectiveness of transseptal suturing septoplasty in elderly individuals. The method used in this study involved the prospective separation of septoplasty candidates over 65 into 2 groups. The first group underwent nasal packing, while the transseptal suture technique was used on the second group.

Comparing the Efficiencies of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and Intratympanic Steroid Treatment for Sudden Hearing Loss.

Objectives: To compare the efficiencies of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) and intratympanic steroid (ITS)treatment for idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearingloss (ISSHL).

Materials And Methods: A total of 136 patients who were treated for ISSHL were reviewed fromthemedical records. All of the patients were given systemic steroid therapy (SST).

Segmental superficial parotidectomy in the surgical treatment of benign parotid tumours.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of segmental superficial parotidectomy in the surgical treatment of benign parotid tumours.

Methods: Patients who underwent parotidectomy for benign primary parotid tumours limited to the superficial lobe were retrospectively reviewed. Tumour location, size, surgical procedure, follow-up period, complications and recurrence rates were noted.

Sensorineural Hearing Loss in Selective Immunglobulin A Deficiency.

Objective: To assess hearing functions in pediatric patients with selective immunoglobulin A (IgA) deficiency (SIGAD).

Methods: Pure-tone audiometry, acoustic impedance, otoacoustic emission, and brainstem audiometric measurements were taken during a non-infectious period in 28 patients with SIGAD and 28 healthy children with normal otoscopic examination. The results of the hearing tests were compared between the two groups.
