Spontaneous CSF fistula as a manifestation of idiopathic intracranial hypertension.

Introduction: Spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) fistula, of unknown origin, is a rare condition whose aetiology is increasingly related to idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). This study tries to raise awareness that they should not be considered as two different processes, but that fistulas can be a form of debut, requiring a study and subsequent treatment. Repair techniques are described, as well as the study of HII.

Nasal Symptoms in Asthmatic Patients under Treatment with Anti-IL-5 Monoclonal Antibodies. A Real-Life Cohort Study.

Currently, some monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are being studied for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Three anti-IL-5 mAb: mepolizumab, reslizumab and benralizumab, have been tested through randomized clinical trials. In this real-life study, we aimed to describe the nasal effects of a cohort of asthmatic adults treated with anti-IL-5 mAb.

The first otologic surgery in a skull from El Pendón site (Reinoso, Northern Spain).

Archaeological research in the Dolmen of El Pendón (Reinoso, Burgos, Spain) has brought to light the complex biography of a megalithic monument used throughout the 4th millennium cal. BC. The ossuary of this burial holds the bones of nearly a hundred individuals who suffered from diverse pathologies and injuries.

Radioanatomical study of the extended free nasal floor mucosal graft and its clinical applications.

Objectives: To perform a radio-anatomical evaluation of the nasal cavity floor free mucosal graft (endonasal extended mucoplasty, EEM) to repair mucosal defects after an extended ethmoid-sphenoidotomy.

Methods: A human cadaveric study (radiological and anatomical dissection) and an in vivo study in surgical patients with CRSwNP were performed. The EEM areas were compared between 3D reconstruction from CT scans and anatomical/surgical dissections, both in cadaver specimens and in patients.

[Carcinoma on pleomorphic adenoma in cervical salivary heteropia. Handling of one case and literature review].

The presence of salivary tissue outside of the salivary glands, a term called "salivary heterotopia," is not very common. The co-existence of carcinoma expleomorphic adenoma in a salivary heterotopia in the upper third of the neck can be considered unusual. We present an infrequent and clinically unsuspected case of carcinoma expleomorphic adenoma in the upper third of the neck and independent of the salivary glands.
