It necessitates a delicate balance between airway and phonation. In this article, we discuss our experience with coblation in posterior cordotomy to treat patients with bilateral abductor paralysis (Coblation assisted Kashima Surgery). Patients and Methods: A prospective study was done among 27 patients with bilateral vocal fold paralysis who underwent coblation assisted Kashima surgery at our tertiary care hospital. The handicap index and dyspnoeic scores were assessed before and after surgery. All patients were tracheostomised and after successful Kashima surgery, the tracheostoma was closed. Patients were followed up for a period of 3 months for worsening of voice/ dyspnoea/ aspiration. Results: Of the 27 patients, 19 were males and 8 were females, most common aetiology of the vocal cord palsy was subsequent to thyroid surgery (Total thyroidectomy). The study showed that there was a significant mean difference between pre and post-tests among patients with dyspnoea index with P-value < 0.05 i.e., 0.02 . It also showed that there was significant mean difference between pre and post-tests among patients with VHI Index with P-value < 0.05 i.e., 0.04 . Conclusion: Kashima operation gives good results with respect to airway improvement. Voice outcomes vary from patient to patient, however overall patient satisfaction with respect to voice was good.","PeriodicalId":37983,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Ear, Nose, Throat and Allied Sciences","volume":"87 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77252304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is known that temporary or permanent threshold shifts in hearing exist after loud noise exposure. The vestibular system can also be activated and therefore disturbed the equilibrium mechanism. Consequently, this study aimed to assess the effect of noise on the vestibular system in patients with chronic noise exposure using a video head impulse test (vHIT). Patients and Methods: The present study included 34 subjects. They divided into two groups: the study group consisted of 17 patients with chronic noise exposure and the control group included healthy subjects with normal peripheral hearing sensitivity. Basic audiological evaluation and vHIT were conducted on all subjects in the study. Results: There was a statistically significant difference in vHIT lateral canal gain between the study and control groups. A statistically significant negative correlation between duration of noise exposure and lateral canal gain was also present. In addition, there was a negative correlation between lateral canal gain and pure tone thresholds at 2,3,4,6&8KHz frequencies. Conclusion: vHIT is quick and easily applicable in evaluating the vestibular function in patients with prolonged noise exposure.","PeriodicalId":37983,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Ear, Nose, Throat and Allied Sciences","volume":"62 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88146540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A 14-year-old male presents with right-sided facial swelling, facial numbness and epistaxis secondary to a vascular lesion occupying the right nasal cavity. Biopsies revealed an angiofibroma. Imaging showed erosion of the anterior maxillary wall, thinning of the anterior wall of the pterygopalatine fossa whilst sparing of the nasopharynx, pterygoid plates and vidian canals. The tumour was excised uneventfully via a right hemi-facial degloving surgery. Maxillary ENAs presents most often with facial swelling, followed by nasal obstruction and epistaxis.

Patients and Methods: 96 patients with persistent bilateral nasal obstruction were included in our study during period from January 2017 to December 2018. 42 patients used oral steroid as group B and 54 patients used oral macrolides as group A. Patients were scheduled for follow-up visit (after three months) with respect to computed tomographic scan of paranasal sinuses scoring and endoscopic nasal scoring. The severity of polyposis was significantly lower in the macrolides group vs. the steroid group based on both radiological and endoscopic scoring.

ABSTRACT Background: Several studies reported voice changes in patients with thyroid disorders. Objective: The objective of this study was to examine the voice characteristics of a group of patients with hyperthyroidism. Patients and Methods: Twenty-one patients with clinical hyperthyroidism and Twenty-one healthy volunteers in the age range 24-55 years were subjected to voice assessment using both subjective (auditory perceptual assessment) and objective tools (acoustic and aerodynamic analyses). Results: Despite the absence of perceptual voice changes in our patients with hyperthyroidism, subtle changes in the acoustic and aerodynamic parameters could be detected with a trend towards laryngeal dysfunction. Maximum phonation time and Harmonic/Noise ratio were significantly lower, and shimmer was significantly higher in hyperthyroid patients when compared to the reference group. Pitch and jitter were also higher in hyperthyroid patients, but the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusion: These findings provide evidence that elevated levels of thyroid hormones potentially affect the phonatory function of the vocal folds.","PeriodicalId":37983,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Ear, Nose, Throat and Allied Sciences","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90336880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
