AWM deficits have been noticed even in children with milder hearing impairments. It is essential to incorporate AWM assessment as a part of the standard audiological battery to minimize the detrimental effects of working memory deficits. The present study systematically reviews the articles published between 2011–2021 regarding test tools available to assess AWM in children with hearing impairment and the efficiency of the same. An overview of the auditory working measures such as the forward and backward digit span test; digit span subtests of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-III; non-word repetition; Illinois test of Psycholinguistic Skills-Forward Digit Span; Numbers reversed subtest from Woodcock-Johnson III Tests of Cognitive Abilities; and Word and non-word recall subtests of Working Memory Test Battery-Children; Number recall, and Word order task from Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children II are provided in detail. The present systematic review also provides an overview of the efficiency of the assessment tools by discussing the correlation between the findings obtained in memory tasks with other auditory, verbal, and visual measures. The working memory performance in children with hearing impairment using a hearing aid or cochlear implant has been found to be affected but varies in nature depending on the degree of hearing loss.","PeriodicalId":501131,"journal":{"name":"The Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140156777","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}

This study involved 40 patients with nasal obstruction, those patients attended the Otorhinolaryngology Department of Al Azhar University Hospital in Assiut and diagnosed with enlarged inferior turbinate that did not respond to medical treatment. Also, Pre- and post-operative CT scanning was performed to objectively evaluate the improvement. Coblation group has more advantages over the traditional group like less operative time, less intraoperative blood loss, less post-op pain, less post-op nasal crusts, early return to daily activity (P value < 0.001). Significant decrease in postoperative nasal obstruction among partial inferior turbinectomy group in comparison with coblation group (P value < 0.001). Coblation assisted inferior turbinate reduction of the hypertrophied inferior turbinate is the technique of less complications (i.e. post-operative pain, bleeding, and nasal crust), which are commonly encountered with traditional methods. Traditional method is a bit better in patient self-satisfaction after surgery and relieving post-operative nasal obstruction.","PeriodicalId":501131,"journal":{"name":"The Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140155444","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 aims to detect the presence of DLD and ASD among children with metabolic disorders. This is an analytical (observational) cross-sectional study. The subjects of this study comprised a convenient sample of 100 children diagnosed as having different metabolic disorders with age range between 24 and 48 months. The Modified Preschool Language Scale, Fourth Edition–Arabic version and the Childhood Autism Rating Scale were applied for all children, to detect the presence of DLD and ASD. Assessment of 100 children with unequal distribution of 13 types of metabolic disorders found that 86% of cases had DLD and 16% had ASD. Regarding different metabolic disorders, we found both DLD and ASD in nine types and only DLD in four types of metabolic disorders. Children with metabolic disorders are at a high risk for DLD and ASD. Early detection of these cases provides early intervention and better outcome.","PeriodicalId":501131,"journal":{"name":"The Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140129824","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}

Clival chordomas have a high propensity for extension through the skull base and a high proclivity for recurrence. Recently, resection of skull base chordomas through the endoscopic transnasal approach has become the standard way of managing these lesions with the new advancements in neuronavigation and reconstructive techniques in skull base surgery. It is a retrospective study of all patients with clival chordoma that were operated upon using endoscopic endonasal resection at the Main Alexandria University Hospital during the period from March 2008 to April 2013. The extent of surgical resection was assessed intraoperatively and confirmed by the postoperative MRI study performed 8–12 weeks, 6 months, and yearly after the surgery. Twelve patients with clival chordoma were managed by endoscopic transnasal resection. Gross total resection confirmed by postoperative MRI was achieved in four cases, subtotal resection in six cases, and partial resection in two cases of clival chordoma. In cases where gross total resection was not achieved, residual tumors were adherent to vital neurovascular structures as confirmed with the utilization of an intraoperative imaging navigation device. A study of postoperative complications and possible recurrence was done for all cases. The findings of this study highlight the significance of gross total resection as a major determinant for preventing the recurrence of chordoma. Our findings also support the validity of the endoscopic approach for the management of clival chordoma especially when the approach is tailored based on the site and extent of the tumor.","PeriodicalId":501131,"journal":{"name":"The Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140127499","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 69-year-old male presented with a painless growing mass in his left ear helix that had been unsuccessfully treated conservatively by another surgeon. An incisional biopsy revealed moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma, and the patient was referred to the department for further management. A PET/CT was performed, which showed uptake of FDG in the ear with a SUV max value and T3N0M0 status. The treatment plan was based on a multidisciplinary team discussion and a thorough evaluation of the PET/CT imaging findings. A decision was made to proceed with excision of the mass with a wide safety margin, using a PET/CT-based resection guide for ear resection. Additionally, partial temporal bone resection, selective neck dissection, and superficial parotidectomy were planned. The patient opted for reconstruction with a scalp rotational flap. The patient’s treatment plan was successful, and at follow-up visits, he remained disease-free. This case report highlights the importance of using a PET-CT-based resection guide for the treatment of soft tissue tumors, specifically auricular squamous cell carcinoma. It also demonstrates the importance of a multidisciplinary team approach and thorough evaluation of imaging findings in determining an effective treatment plan for patients. The use of PET-CT-based resection guide can be an effective tool in the treatment of auricular squamous cell carcinoma. It can provide more precise and accurate information about the extent of the tumor, leading to a more effective treatment plan.

This study aimed to detect affection in auditory system and if present investigate the possible site of lesion (up to the level of the brain stem) in relation to COVID-19 infection. This is a case control study, where the study group constituted of thirty adults, diagnosed with COVID-19 at least 2 weeks prior to testing and up to 6 months, without previous auditory complaints pre-COVID-19 or other risk factors that could affect the auditory pathway. Fifteen adult participants that were age and gender matched to the study group with no previous history of covid-19 infection constituted the control group. Audiological evaluations done to all participants were pure-tone and speech audiometry, tympanometry, transient-evoked otoacoustic emission with and without contralateral suppression and auditory brainstem response measurements. The study group showed significantly worse pure tone thresholds at high frequencies 4 and 8 kHz (p < 0.01), significantly worse transient-evoked otoacoustic emission signal to noise ratio at 2800 Hz and 4000 Hz (p < 0.05) and significantly lower total suppression index (p<0.05). On the other hand, there was no significant difference between both groups in auditory brainstem response wave latencies (p > 0.05). COVID-19 had subtle effect on cochlear basal turn, and it is shown that the auditory efferent system may also be affected, while the auditory nerve and afferent brainstem pathways seems to be spared. Moreover, the absence of the symptoms of auditory dysfunction postcovid-19 does not guarantee normal auditory functions.","PeriodicalId":501131,"journal":{"name":"The Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology","volume":"317 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140025683","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}

Sixty-three patients with diseased MS require surgery. Endoscopic MS approaches used include MMAA, PLRA, and CFA. Each approach was used in 21 patients. The outcome of each approach was measured regarding lesion accessibility and clearance, complications (intraoperative or postoperative), and recurrence. The maxillary sinus posterior wall was accessible in all approaches. Other walls and different recesses were also accessible in the case of PLRA and CFA with statistically significant difference between the three approaches. There was no significant difference between patients operated by PLRA and CFA regarding accessibility to different walls and recesses of the MS. Endoscopic and radiological recurrence were found in three (15%) patients who were operated by MMAA. There was no evidence of recurrence in patients operated by the other approaches. Complications like crustations, fascial pain, fascial welling, and fascial hypoesthesia occurred in a few patients. By using a suitable endoscopic approach, the different walls and recesses of the MS were completely accessible, so benign MS lesions that required open surgical approaches can be managed endoscopically while preserving the sinus structure and function.","PeriodicalId":501131,"journal":{"name":"The Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140010597","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}
