[Rhinoplasty and reconstruction of the nasal dorsum: role of an autologous graft of the concha media].

Background: Aesthetic and functional rhinoplasty can improve facial beauty. Surgical procedure may require autogenous grafts. These bone or cartilage grafts are harvested from different parts of the body.

[Endostenting using a Y-stent for hematoma after thoracic aorta surgery].

Objective: To describe the diagnostic and therapeutic management of extrinsic tracheobronchial compression after thoracic aorta surgery.

Patient And Methods: We report the case of a female patient with Marfan syndrome.

Results: A 27-year-old woman with Marfan syndrome presented respiratory distress after type III dissecting aneurysm of the descending aorta from extrinsic compression (hematoma) of the lower third of the trachea and the left bronchial stump.

[Bilateral hypopharyngocele].

Objective: Describe the management of bilateral hypopharyngocele in a trumpet player.

Material And Method: Case report of a professional trumpet player suffering from bilateral hypopharyngocele.

Results: A professional trumpet player was referred for an ORL consultation after he noticed that a bad sound was produced while he was playing associated with cervical pain.

[Inflammatory pseudotumor of the larynx in children].

Objective: Describe the management of laryngeal pseudotumor in a young boy with exclusive endoscopic resection with laser CO2 resection.

Material And Method: Case report.

Results: We report a rare case of a laryngeal pseudotumor in a child that was successfully treated with endoscopic resection with laser CO2 vaporization.

Coherent control of the effective susceptibility through wave mixing in a duplicated two-level system.

We theoretically demonstrate the coherent control of the effective susceptibility of a duplicated two-level system. The control is obtained for a linearly polarized weak field in the presence of a much stronger orthogonally polarized field. For small optical depths, the effective susceptibility chi(eff) behaves as chilin(e 2iphi) (chilin) is the linear susceptibility, phi the phase shift) allowing coherent control of the optical response.
