Article Synopsis
- Transsphenoidal pituitary surgery has shifted towards endoscopic methods, which may lead to rare complications like postoperative sinusitis, not well-documented in previous studies.
- A retrospective analysis of 203 patients treated from 2018 to 2023 identified 17 cases of isolated sphenoid sinusitis within three months post-surgery, examining pre- and post-operative factors.
- Outcomes revealed that nonfunctioning pituitary neuroendocrine tumors significantly increased the risk of sinusitis, and lower postoperative cortisol levels were also correlated with this complication, providing insights for clinicians in identifying at-risk patients.
Objective: The mainstay of first-line treatment of parotid tumors is adequate surgical removal. The present study was conducted to compare the differences between parotidectomy with postauricular incision (PI) and modified Blair incision (MBI).
Data Sources: A systematic search of PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library was performed.
: The purpose of the present study was to elucidate the in-hospital and long-term outcomes of patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) bleeding and to analyze the risk factors for mortality. : We included patients who presented to the emergency department (ED) with HNC bleeding. Variables of patients who survived and died were compared and associated factors were investigated by logistic regression and Cox's proportional hazard model.
