ConclusionsOrthodontists’ most desirable characteristic in an orthognathic surgeon is an understanding of both pre-surgical and non-surgical orthodontics. Surgeons seeking to increase orthognathic referrals should work to increase insurance coverage and actively initiate strong personal and relationships with orthodontists.

CONCLUSION: After more than six months following canal wall down mastoidectomy, the degree of retracted neo-tympanic membranes and exteriorised attics was significant. Eustachian tube dysfunction leading to negative middle-ear aeration was present even after the canal wall down procedure. However, there was no development of cholesteatoma, despite persistent retraction. PMID: 31267884 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source: Journal of Laryngology and Otology)

ConclusionsThe Protocol for the Evaluation of Voice in Subjects with Hearing Impairment, PEV-SHI, is a reliable and useful tool for assessing the particularities of the voice of individuals with hearing impairment treated with cochlear implants and can be used in research and clinical settings to standardize evaluation and facilitate information exchange among services.ResumoIntroduçãoA voz de indivíduos com deficiência auditiva tem sido amplamente descrita e pode estar comprometida em todos os níveis...
Of all creatures, humans use their voices most robustly. Communication can occur in many ways, but vocal communication is most refined in humans. We learn language starting in infancy, when we begin mimicking sounds and inflections, and then go on to make words and sentences. It is said that there is no more beautiful and complicated vocalization in nature than the human song. Our larynx, initially designed for airway protection, affords us the ability to express ourselves with voice, whispered,...

ConclusionThe unexpected occurrence of gusher during stapes surgery represents a relevant issue for the otologic surgeon. Its management most commonly consists in plugging the oval window and the tympanic cavity. In most of the cases, a stapes prosthesis could be positioned. The results on hearing and vestibular functions are widely variable. (Source: European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology)MedWorm Message: Have you tried our new medical search engine?

This article presents the experiences of two patients who suffered significant intraoral haemorrhage secondary to the posterior alveolar draining vein of a complex mandibular AVM. In both instances, haemostasis was successfully achieved utilizing fluoroscopy ‐guided direct puncture of the affected vessel through the oral mucosa, with subsequent Onyx® embolization.

I have read with interest the article by Lee et al,1 who conducted a cross-sectional study to compare the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) between groups with and without carotid artery calcified plaque (CACP) in older male patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The authors observed that the mean NLP value of OSA patients with CACP was significantly higher than that of OSA patients without CACP. In contrast, cardiovascular risk factors such as age, body mass index, hypertension,...

Authors: Huang Z, Ma J, Sun Y, Zhou B Abstract The aim of the present study was to evaluate the clinical practice patterns in maximal medical therapy (MMT) before endoscopic sinus surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) by Chinese otolaryngologists. An anonymous web-based survey of MMT was performed. This survey assessed types of therapies, the frequency of use, duration of use, and demographic data of respondents. A total of 134 (26.8%) questionnaires were completed and returned. The...
We present a case in which traumatic OAS was caused by direct compression due to a displaced fracture segment from the superior orbit. The patient was successfully treated with a combination of emergent decompression and urgent reconstruction suggesting that this may be an effective strategy in OAS resulting from direct nerve compression as a result of craniomaxillofacial fracture.

Authors: Dejaco D, Riedl D, Giotakis A, Bektic-Tadic L, Kahler P, Riechelmann H Abstract This investigation explored the outcomes of 4 standardized treatments in patients with refractory chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), despite recent maximal medical therapy (MMT). In a prospective observational study, we compared continued nasal steroids and irrigation (cNSI), repeated MMT (rMMT), pulsed nasal steroid inhalation (PSI), and endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). Between November 2015 and March 2016,...
