Nasal Air‐Jet Sensitivity Differentiates Empty Nose Syndrome and Turbinate Reduction Patients: A Pilot Study

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This prospective pilot study aims to compare nasal mucosal sensitivity to air‐jet stimuli between ENS patients and patients who underwent septoplasty/turbinate reduction (septo‐turb) surgery, but without ENS symptoms. The ENS group had a significantly higher (less sensitive) threshold than the septo‐turb group for the septum opposing the center of the ...

From Expectations to Experience: A Comparison of Program Director Priorities to Resident Case Logs

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The present study identified 47 essential otolaryngology procedures via program director surveys and evaluated the extent of resident participation in these cases through ACGME case logs. Results revealed significant variability in surgical experience, with nearly half of these essential procedures being logged fewer than 10 times during residency ...

Radiofrequency Ablation Versus Laser Neurolysis of the Posterior Nasal Nerve in Patients With Chronic Rhinitis

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of radiofrequency ablation of the intraturbinate segment of the posterior nasal nerve (RAPN) alone versus combined RAPN with CO₂ laser posterior nasal nerve neurolysis (RPN3) in patients with chronic rhinitis refractory to medical therapy.

Obesity and Its Impact on Endoscopic Sinus Surgery Outcomes in Patients With Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose The rising prevalence of obesity introduces challenges in surgical contexts, including endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). However, the impact of obesity on ESS outcomes remains underexplored. This study aims to evaluate the association between obesity and surgical complexity, operative

A Comparative Study of Endoscopic Septoplasty Versus Conventional Septoplasty [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery, 2013
Nasal obstruction due to deviated nasal septum is a common problem encountered by otolaryngologists. A variety of surgical procedures have been tried in the treatment of the same. This study was conducted to evaluate the outcomes and complications of endoscopic and conventional septoplasty. This is a prospective, randomized study.

Identification and Validation of Biomarkers in Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps and Study of Their Associated Mechanisms

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cell senescence (CS) and lipid metabolism (LM) disorders have been reported in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). However, the mechanism is still unclear. Methods Data were obtained from public databases; differential expression analysis and machine learning were performed to identify biomarkers and to understand the

The role of powered instrumentation in the removal of antrochoanal polyps: a 10-Year Review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Antrochoanal polyps are rare lesions. We report a series of 40 consecutive cases of antrochoanal polyps treated in our tertiary centre over a period of ten years between May 1998 and April 2008. The median age of the patients was 37 years.

Computational fluid dynamics as surgical planning tool: a pilot study on middle turbinate resection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Controversies exist regarding the resection or preservation of the middle turbinate (MT) during functional endoscopic sinus surgery. Any MT resection will perturb nasal airflow and may affect the mucociliary dynamics of the osteomeatal complex.
