Diagnosis is often delayed due to nonspecific symptoms, contributing to challenges in treatment and management. We present a case of a 75-year-old female with epistaxis and nasal blockage, ultimately diagnosed with amelanotic sinonasal melanoma. Despite diagnostic difficulties exacerbated by profuse bleeding during biopsy attempts, a comprehensive approach involving clinical evaluation, imaging, and histopathology led to a definitive diagnosis. Immunohistochemistry played a crucial role in confirming the diagnosis, ruling out differential diagnoses such as olfactory neuroblastoma and lymphoma. Surgical excision, despite intraoperative bleeding, was successful, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy due to the tumor's advanced stage. The case underscores the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and personalized treatment strategies, considering the tumor's molecular characteristics for improved outcomes in managing this rare malignancy.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11457529/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142394543","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 affects the frontal recess configuration by opening posterior and lateral to the frontal sinus ostium. This cross-sectional observational study includes 100 patients with Supra orbital ethmoid air cells including various pathologies. We picked up the first 100 patients who had SOEC in all the CT PNS done for various sinonasal pathologies. The incidence of the cell was about 43%. The most common type was the cell extending up to the medial wall of the orbit which was noted in 37% of the cases. Cribriform plate was low-lying in patients with SOEC and the most common type was Keros 3 in about 49% of the study group. 83 patients had anterior ethmoid artery (AEA) lying away from the skull base hanging freely in the mesentery. The most common pathologies observed in patients with supraorbital ethmoid cells were chronic rhinosinusitis followed by mucoceles. The recurrence rate of sinusitis is high in patients with SOEC. The recurrences were mostly because of mistaking the SOEC to be frontal sinus or incomplete removal of partition between them. study stresses the importance of SOEC and its orientation preoperatively to avoid complications during and after the surgery. Detailed preoperative evaluation with the CT helps the surgeon to identify the cells, their extent and associated anatomical variations thereby preventing damage to AEA, cribriform plate and lateral lamella and can get good results.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11456102/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142394637","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}

Contrast-enhanced tomography of the neck reported a lesion in the left thyroid lobe causing mass effect in the form of contralateral deviation of trachea and splaying of bilateral common carotid arteries from its common origin - probability of thyroid neoplasm along with aberrant right subclavian artery with a retroesophageal course was noted.

This case report presents an unusual instance of a teratoma in the left palatine tonsil, also known as giant epignathus, of a 25-year-old female. The patient experienced a progressively enlarging mass over six to seven months without recurrent sore throat, fever, respiratory difficulties, or weight loss. Clinical and imaging assessments revealed a 2 cm x 3 cm irregular mass in the left palatine tonsil, which was surgically excised. Histopathology confirmed a mature teratoma. The patient was followed up for six months without evidence of recurrence. This case underlines the importance of considering teratomas in the differential diagnosis of tonsillar masses, even in adults, and highlights complete surgical excision as the treatment of choice to minimize recurrence risks and achieve optimal patient outcomes.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11456061/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142394529","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}

A total of 84 children with normal auditory processing and 45 children diagnosed with learning difficulties were administrated the BFT in Tamil. Test-retest reliability was evaluated in a sample of 30 children who exhibited normal auditory processing. The results of BFT in children with normal auditory processing demonstrated satisfactory reliability by the Cronbach Alpha test. A statistically significant difference was seen in the mean scores of BFT in Tamil when comparing the groups. The present study offers novel normative data for the binaural fusion test in Tamil, which has not been previously documented in the existing literature.

The disease is rare in the head and neck region with varying presentations. We present a rare case of recurrent hydatid disease of the temporal bone with intracranial involvement; and the treatment thereof. Hydatid disease is endemic in few parts of the world, its occurrence in head and neck region is very rare. The commonest causative organism is E. granulosus giving rise to cystic hydatid disease. Most of the former are asymptomatic, but can give rise to symptoms because of their mass effects or rupture. Our case is a 38 year male presenting to ENT department with recurrent left ear discharge, giddiness, headache and facial palsy having operated elsewhere twice in the past. The patient was investigated by Computed Tomography (CT) scanning and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of temporal bones, head and neck regions. Which showed soft tissue attenuation of middle ear cleft and multiple cystic lesions in the middle and posterior cranial fossae indicating intracranial extension of disease. We operated for left subtotal petrosectomy with vestibular labyrinthectomy. During the perioperative period he was treated with Albendazole. Patient remains clinically and radiologically asymptomatic (post surgery 1 year) till date of this manuscript submission. Hence, we report the recurrent hydatid cyst in the temporal bone and skull base, which was managed by combination of surgical and medical treatment.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11456106/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142394636","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}
