All concha bullosa: an undefined abnormality of the lateral nasal wall.

Pneumatization of the turbinates, are the anatomic variations of lateral nasal wall. Turbinate pneumatization, refers to the existence of air cell inside the turbinates. Pneumatization of the middle turbinate is common, whereas rare in the superior and especially inferior turbinate.

Comparison of clinical differences between patients with allergic rhinitis and nonallergic rhinitis.

We conducted a retrospective study to investigate the clinical differences between subtypes of rhinitis patients. Our findings were based on a detailed history and nasal examination. The study population was made up of 910 patients who had at least two rhinitis symptoms.

Metastatic renal cell carcinoma to the condyle of the mandible.

A 59-year-old woman who had left nephrectomy because of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) 3 years ago referred with trismus and a mass on her left temporomandibular joint. Computed tomography scan revealed an expanding lytic lesion on the left condyle of the mandible. Incisional biopsy was carried out.

[Efficacy of local heparinoids on preventing edema and ecchymosis after rhinoplasty].

Objectives: In this study, the effect of local heparinoids on prevention of periorbital edema and ecchymosis due to rhinoplasty was investigated.

Patients And Methods: Twenty patients (12 males, 8 females, mean age 23.3 years; range 19 to 34 years) who had bilateral osteotomy were randomly administered postoperative local heparinoid on one periorbital region, without performing any care in the other one.

Do comorbidities influence objective and subjective recovery rates of nasal polyposis?

Objectives: To investigate the clinical and laboratory outcomes both objectively and subjectively in nasal polyposis patients with or without comorbidity (CoM; asthma and allergy).

Patients And Methods: Thirty-three nasal polyposis patients (13 women and 20 men) were included into the study. Their mean age was 39.

Endoscopic removal technique of a huge ethmoido-orbital osteoma.

Osteomas are slow-growing benign tumors of the paranasal sinuses. They originate from the sinus wall and generally fills the sinus cavity. Many osteomas are asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally on radiographs.

Second primary cancer occurrence on forehead flap after reconstruction of nasal carcinoma.

We reported a case of basal cell carcinoma on the flap which was initially treated with excision of squamous cell carcinoma and forehead flap reconstruction of nasal dorsum. After 8 years of reconstruction, basal cell carcinoma was developed on the flap surface. This may be due to a recurrence, or a second primary tumor, or an activation of a dormant tumor with perturbing factors like surgery.

Effect of intranasal estrogen on vocal quality.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of intranasal estrogen therapy on female vocal quality. Thirty-two women who had surgically induced menopause were included into the study group and examined through hall year for this study. Estrogen treatment was proposed to all of the patients.

Isolated preauricular pits and tags: is it necessary to investigate renal abnormalities and hearing impairment?

We investigated the incidence and co-existence of hearing impairment and renal abnormalities in healthy children with preauricular tags and pits. Study population consists of 13,740 primary school children from routine health check. Thirty-five children with preauricular tags and pits were noted.

The effect of dexmedetomidine on middle ear pressure.

Objective: Dexmedetomidine is a preferred anesthetic agent in otological surgery because it provides controlled hypotension and good surgical field visibility. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of this novel agent on middle ear pressure.

Study Design And Setting: This prospective clinical trial was performed in 60 patients who were scheduled for elective surgery.

The sensitivity of nasal eosinophilia in allergic rhinitis.

Evaluation of nasal epithelial samples is a part of clinical allergy practice. The aim of this study is to reveal the sensitivity of the nasal eosinophilia using Rhino-probe and Wright-Giemsa staining by means of all available nasal eosinophilia scoring systems. In 30 patients (12 males, 18 females; mean age = 31.

Auditory brainstem response in pediatric migraine: during the attack and asymptomatic period.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the hearing parameters of children with migraine during ictal and interictal period.

Method: 16 pediatric patients with migraine and normal otolaryngologic examination were evaluated. Hearing parameters were assessed with auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing between and during the migraine attacks.

Internal nasal valve: revisited with objective facts.

Objectives: Comprehensive examination of the internal nasal valve (INV) using objective methods.

Study Design And Setting: In this prospective study, 248 nasal cavities were examined by nasal endoscopy, acoustic rhinometry (ARM), and rhinomanometry (RMM).

Results: Endoscopic examination allowed to suggest a novel classification of INV: convex, concave, sharp angle, blunt angle, twisted caudal border, and angle occupied by the septal body.

Ancient schwannoma of the parotid gland: a case report and review of the literature.

Schwannomas are encapsulated benign tumours arising from nerve sheath cells, of which ancient schwannoma is one of five variants. Since the first description, only a few ancient schwannomas have been reported in different locations in the head and neck region. In the parotid gland, this tumour is very rare.

Nasal pyriform aperture stenosis in adults.

Background: Congenital nasal pyriform aperture stenosis (CNPAS) leading to respiratory insufficiency in infants has been well documented. Nevertheless, the nasal pyriform aperture stenosis (NPAS) entity in adulthood has not been discussed at all. The normative data of the width of the pyriform aperture, which has not been revealed before, is necessary for evaluation of the adult subjects with nasal bony inlet stenosis.
