Background And Objectives: Hump reduction in the presence of short nasal bones can result in significant esthetic and/or functional problems in patients seeking rhinoplasty in the Middle East. The aims of this study were to determine the mean length of nasal bones, amount of nasal dorsum it forms in relation to the whole nose, and incidence of short nasal bones in the Middle Eastern population.
Design And Settings: A prospective study that has been carried out in a tertiary care hospital.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how effective bupivacaine is for relieving pain after tonsillectomy within the first day.
- Conducted at King Abdulaziz University Hospital, the research involved 35 patients who received a tonsillectomy; one side used bupivacaine while the other used a saline solution as a control.
- Results showed that while pain reduction wasn't significant in the early hours, there was a notable decrease in pain levels at 6, 12, and 24 hours after surgery, indicating that bupivacaine may be beneficial for post-operative pain management.
Objective: To compare cold dissection to monopolar tonsillectomy in terms of operative time, intraoperative bleeding, post operative bleeding, and pain.
Methods: The study included 100 children who underwent tonsillectomy between January 2002 and January 2004. This study was carried out at King Abdul-Aziz University Hospital, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
