In this case we report rare clinical entity of Millers syndrome in a small child of 6 years. It is basically an autosomal recessive condition characterized by anomalies of face and limbs such as malar hypoplasia, micrognathia, cleft lip and palate, restricted airway, bones and joints malformations [1, 2]. In this child apart from all these features we came across bleeding nasal masses attached to the inferior tubinates, which were causing complete nasal obstruction. Nasal mass was surgically removed and sent for histopathological examination. It turned out to be nasal polyp with very high vascularity containing mucopolysaccharide material.

Adenoidectomy is a common otolaryngologic procedure that may be performed with concomitant tonsillectomy (T&A). This study investigates differences between pediatric inpatients undergoing adenoidectomy alone and T&A. The 2016 Kid's Inpatient Database was used to identify pediatric patients undergoing adenoidectomy (ICD-10: 0CTQXZZ) with and without tonsillectomy (ICD-10: 0CTP, 0CBP).

Background: Despite the considerable burden that hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) imposes, few studies have investigated its effect on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). We aimed to assess the impact of HHT on psychosocial QoL and identify demographic and clinical factors associated with lower QoL.
Methods: We conducted an international, cross-sectional study of 1042 adults with HHT within the Cure HHT network, between 2022 and 2023.
