He was diagnosed with chronic peripheral vertigo of the right ear. He experienced a spinning sensation lasting for several hours, with no clear or consistent trigger for the onset of his dizziness.Intervention: Vestibular-ocular reflex (VOR) exercises were prescribed as part of a home exercise program.Outcomes: The patient was unable to perform the prescribed VOR exercises due to his travel schedule. However, he reported complete resolution of dizziness symptoms following surgical intervention and pharmacological treatment for chronic rhinosinusitis.Discussion: This case highlights the importance of a holistic approach when evaluating and treating patients with vestibular symptoms. Clinicians should consider sinus-related conditions, such as chronic rhinosinusitis, as potential contributors to dizziness.","PeriodicalId":45872,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Otolaryngology","volume":"2025 ","pages":"6175181"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2025-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12619684/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145543269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is more commonly unilateral and typically presents during infancy. In contrast, bilateral CA is a neonatal emergency that often manifests as respiratory distress at birth. The presentation of bilateral CA in late adulthood is extremely rare.Case description: This case presents an unusual case of an elderly patient diagnosed with bilateral CA at 65 years. She presented with a primary complaint of lifelong bilateral nasal obstruction and denied any symptoms suggestive of chronic rhinosinusitis. Examination revealed bilateral choanal obstruction with no visible openings in the nasal cavity. The patient underwent endoscopic transseptal repair of bilateral CA, which included perforation of the atretic plate, posterior septectomy, and flap reconstruction. Postoperative evaluation demonstrated bilaterally patent choanae, and the patient remained asymptomatic, with no further complications.Conclusion: This case highlights a rare presentation of bilateral CA diagnosed in late adulthood. Although typically detected in the neonatal period, bilateral CA can occasionally remain undiagnosed for decades. This patient represents the oldest reported case of bilateral CA in the literature, emphasizing the variability in clinical presentation and the potential for delayed diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":45872,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Otolaryngology","volume":"2025 ","pages":"5584900"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2025-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12611465/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145514590","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their rarity contributes to their frequent misdiagnosis. Ultrasound and immunohistochemical findings are heavily relied on for correct diagnosis. We present a case of thyroid PGL in a 40-year-old female patient who presented with a 1-year history of anterior neck mass and a 4-month history of hemoptysis. Ultrasound findings showed a solitary, lobulated, hypoechoic, and vascular lesion in the right thyroid lobe. She underwent total thyroidectomy and tracheal end-to-end anastomosis. Histopathology showed cells organized in distinct nests (zellballen) pattern enclosed by a delicate fibrovascular stroma. On immunohistochemical analysis, the tumor was positive for synaptophysin, CD56, GATA-3, and S100. The patient is stable postoperatively and disease-free. The role of ultrasound is vital in forming a correct diagnosis of thyroid PGL preoperatively. We review the current literature regarding diagnostic findings and treatment of thyroid PGLs with the aim of supplementing the findings of the thyroid PGLs that have been previously reported. The creation of a robust imaging and immunohistochemical profile for this entity is needed to combat the frequent misdiagnoses that occur with thyroid PGLs.","PeriodicalId":45872,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Otolaryngology","volume":"2025 ","pages":"5395659"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12579563/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145432592","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This disease is classified into several types depending on the extent of the lesion. Because it is rare diseases, there is no established standard treatment of this disease. In this report, we describe an extremely rare case of LCH that developed in the mandible of an older male. This is the first report in the world of a favorable outcome following surgical resection and local steroids administration.Case report: The patient was a 75-year-old male who complained of swelling and pain in his mandible; however, there were no abnormal findings upon intraoral examination. Panoramic radiograph, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed osteolytic tumors. A diagnosis of LCH was confirmed based on the pathological findings of a cluster of Langerhans cells in a biopsy specimen of a submucosal tumor. Because the patient was elderly and the primary tumor was in the mandible, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and systemic steroid administration were difficult to tolerate due to side effects. We performed combined treatment with surgical resection and local steroids injection. He was discharged from the hospital 1 week after the operation; the intraoral wound healed after 2 months, and the pain improved.Conclusions: This report suggests that a combination of surgical resection and local steroids administration is effective in treating LCH of the mandible in elderly patients.","PeriodicalId":45872,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Otolaryngology","volume":"2025 ","pages":"2996605"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12571525/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145410355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Endoscopic pharyngeal examination revealed a tumor in the right palatine tonsil which was histopathologically diagnosed as a follicular dendritic cell sarcoma. The tumor also met the diagnostic criteria for radiation-induced sarcoma. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography revealed abnormal uptake in the right palatine tonsil and bilateral cervical lymph nodes; no distant metastases were detected. The patient underwent tumor resection using the mandibular swing approach, pharyngeal reconstruction using an anterolateral thigh flap, bilateral neck lymph node dissection, and tracheostomy. Postoperative radiotherapy was not administered because of previous irradiation; however, no apparent recurrence or metastasis was observed 4 years after surgery. Follicular dendritic cell sarcoma can develop over an extended period after previous irradiation. Extended resection with a negative margin may be pivotal in treating follicular dendritic cell sarcoma when postoperative radiotherapy cannot be administered.","PeriodicalId":45872,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Otolaryngology","volume":"2025 ","pages":"8861715"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12554916/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145393916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hydatid cysts occur mainly in the liver and lungs and are rare in the head and neck region, even in endemic areas. Due to their nonspecific clinical manifestations, diagnostic challenges are encountered in such atypical presentations. Case Presentation: We report the case of a 6-year-old girl who presented with a progressively enlarging, painless left postauricular mass. Radiological assessment revealed a well-circumscribed, unilocular cystic lesion at level V of the neck. Surgical resection was performed, and histopathology confirmed a hydatid cyst. Postoperatively, the patient was treated with albendazole. No recurrence was observed at follow-up. Clinical Discussion: Hydatid cysts in the cervical region are exceptionally rare, with only a few cases documented in the literature. The disease can remain asymptomatic for years, often presenting as a slow-growing mass. Imaging with ultrasound and CT is critical in preoperative diagnosis. The gold standard of treatment remains complete surgical excision, reinforced by anthelmintic therapy to prevent recurrence. Conclusion: Although rare, hydatid cyst disease should remain among the differential diagnoses of cystic neck masses, especially in endemic areas. Early diagnosis and intervention are essential in evading complications of the disease such as anaphylaxis or recurrence. Ultimately, prevention remains the most effective strategy, emphasizing the need for community awareness, hygienic practices, and coordinated control efforts to break the parasite's life cycle.","PeriodicalId":45872,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Otolaryngology","volume":"2025 ","pages":"6909432"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12494480/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145233735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
