Nasal soft‐tissue anatomy of Triceratops and other horned dinosaurs
Abstract Although ceratopsid dinosaurs possess a characteristically hypertrophied narial region, soft‐tissue anatomy associated with such a skeletal structure and their biological significance remain poorly understood. The present study provides the first comprehensive hypothesis on the soft‐tissue anatomy in the ceratopsid rostrum based on the Extant ...

Dependence of radioactive iodine-131 capture by the lacrimal ducts on the tear production level
Purpose: Secondary acquired lacrimal duct obstruction (SALDO) is one of the complications of radioiodine therapy. SALDO is formed a few months after therapy if there is a sufficient uptake of radioactive iodine by the nasolacrimal duct.

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Rhinologist’s Endoscopic Experience of Lower Lacrimal System Pathologies in Paediatric Patients
Cases of congenital nasolacrimal duct block with unsuccessful blind probing were taken up for a repeat probing under endoscopic assistance. Membranes with a wide variation in thickness were found blocking the lower end of nasolacrimal duct.

Endoscopic Transnasal Apicoectomy for Odontogenic Maxillary Sinusitis
Endoscopic transnasal apicoectomy (ETA) is a novel multidisciplinary technique that combines endoscopic sinus surgery with apicoectomy via a transnasal approach. ETA enables direct access to periapical lesions while preserving the causative tooth. Our initial experience suggests that this minimally invasive approach is safe, feasible, and effective for

Lacrimal Plasty with Dacryocystorhinostomy-Anastomosis Using Microsurgery
Background:. Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is the standard treatment for nasolacrimal duct obstruction, but it has the disadvantage of creating a raw surface, which may lead to reocclusion due to the development of postoperative granulation tissue. In this

Superior Labial Artery Flap for Septal Perforation Repair: The Boxer's Flap
The nasal floor flap, or Boxer's flap, is an anteriorly pedicled, superior labial artery–based mucosal flap that provides excellent closure rates in septal perforation repair when traditional septal flaps are not feasible. The schematic shows: (A) preoperative perforation, (B) nasal floor flap elevation (with the pedicle maintained at the inferior ...
