Abstract:

Introduction: Nasal obstruction secondary to pathological enlargement of inferior nasal turbinates contributes to sleep-disordered breathing (SBD) in prepubertal children, but treatments designed to address turbinate enlargement are often not performed. The aims of these studies are: (1) to appreciate the contribution to SDB of untreated enlarged nasal turbinates in prepubertal children; and (2) to report our experience with treatment of enlarged nasal turbinates in young children with SDB. Materials and Methods: Children with enlarged nasal turbinates who underwent adenotonsillectomy (T&A

AbstractObjectives:A bifid inferior turbinate is an extremely rare anatomical variation and has been reported in only two cases to date. Including the present report, the uncinate processes were missing in all three patients reported. It is suggested that, in the reported patient, bifid inferior turbinate coexisted with a developmental anomaly of the uncinate process, and that the bifid inferior turbinate represented two separate turbinates originating from the same site.Case report:We present the first reported case of bilateral bifid inferior turbinates, with a secondary middle turbinate, in

Abstract:

Nasal obstruction is the most common complaint of patients in ENT practice. In Ayurveda, this condition is explained under the name “Nasanaha” (~nasal obstruction). Nasal obstruction can be seen in disease conditions like deviated nasal septum, nasal mass, allergic rhinitis, and hypertrophied turbinate. Among them, medical and surgical methods can manage deviated nasal septum and hypertrophied turbinates. Medical management includes nasal decongestants which can cause rebound congestion. Surgical management also has some limitations like nasal synechiae formation and postoperative bleeding. Ks

Pneumatization of the intranasal turbinates or concha bullosa is an anatomic variation of the lateral nasal wall. Concha bullosa is defined as the presence of air cells in turbinates. It can be best diagnosed with paranasal sinus computed tomography. Concha bullosa is a possible etiologic factor for recurrent sinusitis due to its negative effect on paranasal sinus ventilation and mucociliary clearance. Concha bullosa is most commonly seen in the middle turbinate and less frequently in the inferior or superior turbinate. Pneumatization of all turbinates is very rare. To our knowledge, there are

Surgical treatment of the inferior turbinates is required for hypertrophic inferior turbinates refractory to medical treatments. The main goal of surgical reduction of the inferior turbinate is to relieve the obstruction while preserving the function of the turbinate.

Irrespective of the techniques and technologies employed, the surgical techniques are classified into two types, the mucosal-sparing and non-mucosal-sparing, based on the preservation of the medial mucosa of the inferior turbinates.

MUC1, MUC2, MUC4, MUC5AC, MUC5B, and MUC7 were expressed in both the normal and VMR turbinates. MUC 4 and MUC5AC were the most highly expressed mucins.

Abstract:

AbstractBackground:Concha bullosa is the pneumatisation of intranasal conchae (usually the middle turbinate, and rarely the inferior or superior turbinate); however, the term is generally used to describe aeration of the middle concha. Superior concha bullosa is a rare finding, and only a few cases of inferior concha bullosa have been reported in the medical literature. When symptomatic, concha bullosa may cause various problems including nasal congestion, headache, postnasal drip, anosmia and, sometimes, epiphora.Methodology:Computed tomography, following history-taking and physical examinati

Abstract:

Background The association of the linear dimensions of the inferior turbinate hypertrophy with nasal septal deviation has been studied recently. However, the volumetric dimensions provide a more accurate status of the turbinate hypertrophy compared to linear measurements. The aim of this study was to analyze the association of inferior nasal turbinate volume with the degree of nasal septal deviation (NSD). Methods A retrospective evaluation of the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans of 412 patients was carried out to obtain 150 scans which were included in the study. The scans were cate

Abstract:

Background: Pyogenic granuloma is a rapidly growing benign fibrovascular lesion involving the skin and mucous membranes. It usually affects the head and neck regions. The most common site is the oral cavity, while involvement of the nasal cavity is quite rare. Though few cases in the nasal cavity have been reported, occurrence in the inferior turbinates is extremely rare. The exact aetiology is unknown. It is often associated with pregnancy. Microtrauma, hormonal changes, and contraceptives may be the causative factors for the development of this vascular mass. Case report: Here we present the

Abstract:

Background The nasal valve is one of the major factors contributing to nasal airflow obstruction. Physiologically, the nasal valve offers the greatest resistance to nasal airflow and generally functions as an inflow device controlling nasal airflow and resistance. Many patients who have complaints of breathing impairment are affected by alterations of the nasal septum, the turbinates, the columellar base, the vestibule floor, or the lateral wall of the nose but may have associated incompetence of the nasal valve, which is too often undervalued by nasal surgeons. The aim of this study was to pr

Abstract:

In the current medical practice, nasal congestion is one of the most frequent symptoms that bring the patients at doctor. One of the most common causes of chronic nasal obstruction is inferior turbinate hypertrophy. Surgical therapy is reserved for those patients who remain symptomatic despite proper medical therapy. The authors bring into question a number of procedures and surgical techniques addressed to the inferior turbinate hypertrophy, choosing one or another depending on the surgeon’s personal experience, the existing pathology and, not at least, the patient’s wish.

Background Inferior turbinectomy on patients of all ages is a controversial procedure. Its effect on children has been reported little in the literature and the few studies that are available involved relatively older children, i.e., >10 years old. Nasal obstruction caused by extensive hypertrophy of the inferior turbinates is not an uncommon observation in the pediatric population. The clinical manifestations might present as snoring, noisy breathing, mouth breathing, and, possibly, sleep apnea.

Fliess, an ENT surgeon, was Freud’s closest friend and confidant. They both believed that sexual problems were the chief cause of neurosis. Fliess postulated that eflex nasal neurosis was based on the important physiological connection between the nose and the genitals. He described specific genital spots located on the nasal inferior turbinate. Fliess’ second preoccupation was with vital periodicities. He believed that the symptoms of his reflex nasal neurosis followed regular 28-day cycles as does menstruation. He further proposed a male 23-day menstrual cycle, that he centred specifically o

Adenoid tissue was examined in children with secretory otitis media to see if there was evidence of mast cell degranulation, which would support the hypothesis that either local allergic or other mast cell-mediated reactions caused the condition.

At the ninth week the precartilaginous nucleus of the inferior turbinate is observed. Likewise, at the tenth week the uncinate process appears, and the invagination of the epithelium begins the formation of the infundibulum and the maxillar sinus. At the fourteenth week the cartil
