Crusting in the nose is basically dried mucus and is the most common complications post nasal surgeries. 213 individuals undergoing Endoscopic Septal Correction and Endoscopic Sinus Surgery were included in the study. The Nasal Crusting Score was used post-surgery to look for crusts which were blocking the airway, noted once a day at 6 am in the Post-Operative days. The Nasal Crusting Score was found to have a decreasing trend from post operative days 3 to 14. The p-value is found to be significant on comparing the crusting from the 2nd post operative days to the end of 14 days. This study presents a novel way of understanding airway problems caused by crusting after Endoscopic Septal Correction and Endoscopic Sinus Surgery by means of a Nasal Crusting Score. Quantitative assessment of the nasal airway has not been studied as date and all Quality of Life questionnaires also have a response bias. Older studies have proven that crusting is the hardest to manage and thus requires a protocol for treatment. This study presents a novel Nasal Crusting Score which can help assess the patency of the airway. It can prove to be a useful tool to quickly have a non-patient dependant scoring. The tool is simple and easy to use and can be done without using complex instruments.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":"77 8","pages":"2830-2833"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12297109/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144734820","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 study aimed to measure external ear anthropometric variables in healthy pediatric Saudi individuals using a novel, photo-based technique. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among children aged 1-17 years attending the otorhinolaryngology clinic at a tertiary hospital in Saudi Arabia. Data were collected between August 2022 and January 2023. We enrolled 76 participants (148 ears) who met our inclusion criteria. Patients with external ear deformities due to trauma, congenital malformations, previous surgery, or known congenital syndromes were excluded. This study used a software modality to measure the anthropometric variables which required a picture displaying the desired measurement area and a ruler to set the standard distance. Subsequently, all data were extracted using this method. Results: Of 76 enrolled participants, 52 (68.4%) were male and 24 (31.6%) female. The average age of the included participants was 7.71 ± 4.14 years. Significant differences were found in the right and left ear measurements between males and females. Right and left ear lengths, lobular lengths, concha lengths, and concha widths were significantly greater in males than in females. Conclusion: The study results suggest that male children tend to have larger ears than female children. Additionally, the anthropometric ear measurements in the Saudi pediatric population appear to be smaller than those of pediatric patients from other populations.Supplementary information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12070-025-05633-y.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":"77 8","pages":"3056-3064"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12297175/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144734784","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}

Such technology has a particular usage in treating different forms of CRS with nasal polyposis. In the therapy of sinonasal polyposis, we report the accuracy of surgery with a microdebrider to typical endoscopic sinus surgery instruments. A prospective randomized comparative investigation has been carried out at Al Azhar University Hospital-ENT department, involving 80 patients who were radiologically and clinically diagnosed with bilateral sinonasal polyposis. These patients had not exhibited improvement with previous medical treatments. The diagnosed cases were equally allocated into two groups, Group A (microdebrider group), who underwent microdebrider, and Group B (conventional Group), who underwent surgery with traditional equipment (Messerklinger approach). The intraoperative blood loss differs significantly among the two groups. In Group A, intraoperative blood loss seems to be much lower in individuals who had FESS with the use of a Microdebrider. Group A had mean surgery duration of 130 min, while Group B had a mean surgery time of 163 min. In the treatment of sinonasal polyposis, a microdebrider has some advantages over Conventional endoscopic sinus surgery. For people with sinonasal polyposis, powerful endoscopic sinus surgery is a preferable therapy option. It creates a dry operating field allowing better visualization and cuts down on operative duration. The current study shows that while these tools may be beneficial, they are not required for successful Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) outcomes.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":"77 8","pages":"3033-3039"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12297065/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144734809","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}

Diagnosing this condition is challenging as conventional methods are invasive. Even after requiring specialized equipment, the diagnosis often fails to confidently distinguish it from similar disorders. This results in treatment delay, affecting the patient's quality of life. Artificial intelligence can be trained on datasets to identify patterns in data that humans can miss, especially in cases where the disease incidence is not common. This narrative review consolidates recent research on the application of artificial intelligence on vocal fold paralysis diagnosis in the last five years. All research papers that have aimed to diagnose unilateral or bilateral vocal fold paralysis using artificial intelligence have been reviewed in this work. Datasets, performance, and challenges have been showcased, along with research gaps and areas for improvement. Artificial intelligence models have demonstrated significant diagnostic potential. Artificial intelligence applied to acoustic analysis successfully identified subtle voice changes linked to impaired vocal fold function with high accuracy. Application to imaging-based approaches offered reliable and detailed motion assessments of vocal folds. Computational approaches provide promising supplements if not alternatives to traditional diagnostic tools, enabling earlier identification and personalized treatment. Dataset diversity, model bias, and reliance on high-quality data are consistent challenges. Future research should focus on expanding the pool of available public datasets, refining algorithms, and ensuring usability in clinical settings to maximize the impact of these technologies on patient outcomes.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":"77 8","pages":"2775-2783"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12297161/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144734763","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}
