Article Synopsis
- Choanal atresia (CA) is a condition with incomplete understanding despite being identified 250 years ago, with surgical techniques like intranasal Hegar's dilator (IHD) and transnasal endoscopic excision (TNEE) used for treatment.
- A study examined 30 patients treated for CA in Saudi Arabia from 1997 to 2017, focusing on the effectiveness and re-stenosis rates between IHD and TNEE.
- The patient demographic showed a predominance of girls (70%), primarily diagnosed before one month old, with 56.7% undergoing IHD and 43.3% TNEE, highlighting notable variations in outcomes related to age, type of atresia
To assist the endoscopic localization of the lacrimal sac (LS) relative to nearby landmarks. Methods: This is a descriptive prospective anatomical study. Sixteen lateral nasal walls were dissected endoscopically to identify and localize the LS between October and November 2015.

- Laryngocele is a rare, non-cancerous condition characterized by the swelling of the laryngeal saccule filled with air and/or fluid, located in the laryngeal ventricle.
- It can be classified as internal or combined, with this case focusing on a bilateral combined laryngocele.
- The presentation aims to stress the importance of diagnostic laryngoscopy for evaluating upper airway issues, raise awareness among otolaryngologists, and showcase an external surgical approach for treatment.
Endoscopic localization of the sphenopalatine foramen: do measurements matter?
Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol
September 2014
The objective of this study was to evaluate different methods and measurements for localization of the sphenopalatine foramen (SPF) during endoscopic transnasal exposure. The study design consisted of descriptive anatomical study and the setting was in Microsurgical Cadaver Dissection Lab. Sixteen lateral nasal walls were dissected endoscopically to identify and localize the SPF.
