Clinical Outcomes of a Modified Technique Combining Submucosal Turbinectomy and Extended Neural Targeting in Chronic Rhinitis Management.
In Vivo
December 2024
Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Kaohsiung Veterans General Hospital, Kaohsiung, Taiwan, R.O.C.
Background/aim: This study evaluated the outcomes of combining submucosal turbinectomy with extensive disruption of the pterygopalatine ganglionic efferent nerve fibers through a minimucosal incision in patients with intractable rhinitis, irrespective of their dependency on the posterior nasal nerve.
Patients And Methods: We describe an endoscopic extended neurectomy procedure performed via a minimucosal pocket. The primary outcome measures included the Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score, and runny nose and nasal obstruction subdomains of the Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22), which were assessed pre-procedure and at 3 and 6 months post-procedure.
Sphenopalatine ganglion stimulation for the treatment of cerebrovascular ischemia.
Clin Auton Res
December 2024
Facultad de Medicina, Universidad Autónoma de Sinaloa, C. Sauces, s/n, 80019, Culiacán, SIN, Mexico.
Purpose: The parasympathetic effects of the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) on the cerebral vasculature provide a compelling rationale for its therapeutic application in cerebrovascular ischemia. In recent years, attempts have been made to stimulate the SPG to achieve beneficial effects on cerebral circulation.
Methods: This review synthesizes the available publications on SPG stimulation.
Genetic landscape of Romanian PPGLs.
J Cell Mol Med
December 2024
"Carol Davila" University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Bucharest, Romania.
Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are rare neuroendocrine tumours that originate from chromaffin cells and occur in the adrenal medulla and in the sympathetic or parasympathetic ganglia. Nearly 70% of PPGLs result from germline or somatic mutations in a single driver gene. The aim of this study was to characterize the genetic background and clinical characteristics related to genetic profile of patients with PPGLs from Romania.

Article Synopsis
- * Fourteen patients who struggled with traditional oral medications received fluoroscopy-guided injections, resulting in significant reductions in both pain scores and frequency of pain attacks after 60 days.
- * Complications included temporary side effects like hemifacial palsy and diplopia, which resolved within three months, suggesting the treatment is relatively safe.
