Article Synopsis
- A new surgical technique was developed to preserve the nasolacrimal duct and inferior turbinate during the treatment of sinonasal inverted papilloma, which involves swinging these structures upward and backward.
- A study on 53 patients showed no recurrences in the maxillary sinus and successful preservation of the nasolacrimal duct in all but one case, indicating the technique's effectiveness.
- The method was found to have low complication rates, with no significant adverse effects reported, making it a safe option for treating inverted papilloma.

Oblique reconstruction CT images of frontal sinus drainage pathways were created with ONIS which is free DICOM viewer software. By placing the slice line of the cross sectional image on the drainage pathway of the frontal sinus in the sagittal view, the key oblique CT image could be generated in 96.9% of 65 normal paranasal sinuses that showed the frontal sinus and its drainage pathway simultaneously in one slice.

Guinea pigs were exposed to 4 kHz band noise of 110 dB SPL for 1 or 5 h and the expression of c-Fos in the organ of Corti was determined using Western blotting analysis and immunocytochemistry. c-Fos was expressed only after the noise exposure.
