Abstract

Background: Headache is one of the most common complaints with which a patient presents to an outpatient clinic. Because of the wide range of clinical presentations and etiologies, evaluation of headache is often a challenging problem for the clinician. In our study, we are finding out the possible aetiologies of headache in patients attending the otorhinolaryngology department. Methods: The patients underwent history taking and ENT examination involving hematological, radiological investigations and all data were recorded by in Microsoft excel Sheet and analyzed with the help of SPSS 20 software for windows. Results: The 128 (35.9%) patients had otomastoiditis, 120 (33.6%) patients had nasal mass, 33 (9.2%) patients had sinusitis, 29 (8.1%) patients had laryngeal cancer, 14 (3.9%) patients had tongue cancer, 2 (0.6%) patients had parapharyngeal mass and 31 (8.7%) patients had normal findings. Conclusions: Most common pathologies associated with headache in ENT are otitis externa followed by sympatomatic deviated nasal septum.

耳鼻喉科头痛各种病因的临床病理学研究

背景：头痛是门诊患者最常见的主诉之一。由于头痛的临床表现和病因多种多样，对临床医生来说，评估头痛往往是一个具有挑战性的问题。在我们的研究中，我们要找出耳鼻喉科就诊患者头痛的可能病因：患者接受了病史采集和耳鼻喉科检查，包括血液学和放射学检查，所有数据均记录在 Microsoft excel 表格中，并借助 SPSS 20 软件进行分析：结果：128 例（35.9%）患者患有耳廓炎，120 例（33.6%）患者患有鼻肿块，33 例（9.2%）患者患有鼻窦炎，29 例（8.1%）患者患有喉癌，14 例（3.9%）患者患有舌癌，2 例（0.6%）患者患有咽旁肿块，31 例（8.7%）患者检查结果正常：结论：与耳鼻喉科头痛相关的最常见病症是外耳道炎，其次是鼻中隔偏曲。
