Optimizing Wound Care after Surgery of the Head and Neck: A Review of Dressing Materials.

Wound healing is a complex biological process subject to complications that might jeopardize the patient's postoperative care. Appropriately approaching surgical wounds after head and neck surgery positively influences the quality and speed of wound healing and increases patient comfort. A large variety of dressing materials currently exist that allow the care of different types of wounds.

Neurovascular structures in the lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus. A computed tomography evaluation.

Introduction And Objectives: Anatomical variations of the lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus and its relations with the adjacent neurovascular structures should be preoperatively evaluated to plan an adequate surgical approach and avoid iatrogenic injuries. This study aims to analyze the patterns of pneumatization of the lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus and their association with the presence of protrusion and dehiscence of the optic canal, carotid canal, vidian canal, and maxillary nerve.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective evaluation of 320 sphenoid sinuses by computed tomography was performed.

Clinical Benefits of the Utrecht Questionnaire for Aesthetic Outcome Assessment in Rhinoplasty: An Update.

Presently, there is no consensus on which patient-reported outcome measurement (PROM) instrument is best suited to assess the aesthetic outcomes of rhinoplasty. In this regard, at least seven different validated PROMs are available from the literature, each one with advantages and disadvantages.In this article, we review the development, validation, international translation, and clinical application of the Utrecht Questionnaire (UQ).

Anatomical configurations of the optic canal in the sphenoid sinus in a Hispanic population: computed tomography based study.

Objective: The prevalence of the optic canal anatomical variants across the sphenoid sinus varies widely among different ethnic groups. This study aimed to analyse the anatomical variants of the optic canal and their relationship to sphenoid sinus pneumatisation in a Hispanic population.

Method: A review of 320 sphenoid sinuses by high-resolution computed tomography was performed.

"Chronic granulomatous invasive fungal rhinosinusitis associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection: A case report".

Introduction And Importance: Granulomatous chronic invasive fungal rhinosinusitis (GCIFR) is a rare entity with scarce cases reported mainly in subtropical areas. Its prevalence among individuals with clinical suspicion of fungal rhinosinusitis has been reported in approximately 20% in subtropical populations, unlike North America with a prevalence of 0.5%.
