Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between sinonasal anatomical variations and the likelihood of developing orbital complications related to acute rhinosinusitis in children.
- It uses CT scans from 57 pediatric patients to identify anatomical differences that may influence which side is affected by these complications.
- Findings suggest that variations like lamina papyracea dehiscence are significantly associated with an increased risk of complications on the same side, highlighting the need for further research to clarify these associations.
Article Synopsis
- Children with Down syndrome (DS) often need flexible bronchoscopies (FB) because of common respiratory issues, leading to a study examining their indications and outcomes.
- Between 2004 and 2021, a study compared 50 pediatric DS patients with 150 controls on demographics and findings from FB, finding higher rates of obstructive sleep apnea and abnormal results in DS patients.
- Complications from the procedure were more common in DS patients, especially those with pre-existing cardiac issues and pulmonary hypertension, highlighting the need for careful monitoring in this group.
