{"title":"Sensorineural hearing loss in a child with congenital hypothyroidism receiving thyroid hormone replacement therapy","authors":"Semiramis Zizlavsky, Tri Handayani, R. Suwento, Eka Dwi Safitri, T.

Purpose: To report a case of hearing loss in a child with congenital hypothyroidism who had received thyroid hormone replacement therapy. Case report: Presenting a 3-year-old boy with congenital hypothyroidism, growth and developmental delays, and a very severe bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. He was diagnosed at 6 months old, and even after subsequent therapies, the hearing impairment of the child remained profound. Clinical question: Could thyroid hormone replacement therapy improve the prognosis of hearing function in congenital hypothyroid patients accompanied by sensorineural hearing loss? Review method: Literature review through database PubMed, ProQuest, EBSCO, EBSCOhost and Embase, using keywords: “congenital hypothyroidism”, “hearing loss”, and “thyroid hormone replacement therapy”. Result: Screening on 1088 articles found no studies that were relevant with the clinical question and inclusion criteria. Conclusion: This report supported the evidence on the effects of congenital hypothyroidism on hearing loss, and the importance of early diagnosis and prompt treatment in congenital hypothyroid children. A missed diagnosis of congenital hypothyroidism in neonates may result in unfavorable effects on the child’s growth and development. Further studies are needed to assess the improvement of hearing function in congenital hypothyroid patients accompanied by sensorineural hearing loss that received thyroid hormone replacement therapy. ABSTRAKLatar belakang: Hipotiroidisme kongenital merupakan salah satu penyebab paling umum gangguan pendengaran pada anak-anak, terutama mengingat hormon tiroid berperan penting dalam perkembangan dan maturasi organ pendengaran. Tujuan: Melaporkan satu kasus gangguan pendengaran pada anak dengan hipotiroidisme kongenital yang menetap setelah terapi sulih hormon tiroid. Laporan kasus: Seorang anak laki-laki berusia 3 tahun dengan hipotiroidisme kongenital yang mengalami keterlambatan pertumbuhan dan perkembangan, dan gangguan pendengaran tipe sensorineural bilateral derajat sangat berat. Pasien didiagnosis pada usia 6 bulan, dan walaupun setelah terapi, gangguan pendengaran pada anak tersebut menetap. Pertanyaan klinis: Apakah terapi sulih hormon tiroid mempengaruhi prognosis perbaikan fungsi pendengaran pada pasien hipotiroid kongenital yang disertai gangguan pendengaran sensorineural? Tinjauan literatur: Melalui database PubMed, ProQuest, EBSCO, EBSCOhost dan Embase, menggunakan kata kunci: “hipotiroidisme kongenital”, “gangguan pendengaran”, “terapi sulih hormon tiroid”. Hasil: Setelah skrining 1088 artikel, tidak ada penelitian yang sesuai dengan pertanyaan klinis dan kriteria inklusi.

Lymphadenopathy is the most common clinical manifestation of acute acquired toxoplasma infection in healthy individuals, but rarely presents as a parotid mass. Herein, we report a case of multiple masses in the parotid region caused by toxoplasmosis. A 35-year-old woman had visited another hospital with a one-month history of preauricular swelling. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple masses in the left parotid region and bilateral cervical regions. Fine-needle aspiration cytology from the parotid mass did not reveal any evidence of malignancy. Histopathological examination of an excised lymph node from the right submandibular region revealed follicular hyperplasia, monocytoid B-cell proliferation, and granuloma formation. Serological tests revealed high serum levels of both IgM and IgG antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii. Based on the findings, we made the diagnosis of toxoplasmic lymphadenitis. The lymphadenopathy gradually subsided through six months of follow-up.","PeriodicalId":52493,"journal":{"name":"Practica Otologica","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135843068","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}

Until now, controversy over surgical versus conservative therapy is still being debated. Purpose: Reporting one rare case of retropharyngeal hematoma. Case report: A 72-year-old man was brought to the emergency room with complaints of worsening dyspnea for 12 hours, after slipped and fell in the bathroom. Physical examination revealed purple discoloration on the posterior pharyngeal wall, CT scan showed inhomogeneous hyperdense masses, and coagulopathy. The patient underwent conservative therapy but finally died on the day-10 of treatment. Clinical question: How effective is the conservative therapy in retropharyngeal hematoma compared to surgical therapy? Review method: A literature search using keywords ”retropharyngeal hematoma” was conducted through Pubmed and Google Scholar. Result: Management of retropharyngeal hematoma is still controversial due to the lack of widely accepted guidelines. Conclusion: Conservative therapy in cases of retropharyngeal hematoma, should be administered aggressively, comprehensively, and with a strict protocol.

Laporan kasus: Seorang pria berusia 72 tahun dibawa ke ruang gawat darurat dengan keluhan sesak nafas yang semakin memburuk sejak 12 jam setelah jatuh karena terpeleset di kamar mandi. Pada pemeriksaan fisik didapatkan warna keunguan pada dinding posterior faring, CT scan terlihat massa hyperdense yang tidak homogen, serta koagulopati.

Telaah literatur: Pencarian literatur menggunakan kata kunci ”retropharyngeal hematoma” dilakukan melalui Pubmed dan Google Scholar. Hasil: Penatalaksanaan hematoma retrofaring masih menjadi kontroversi karena belum adanya pedoman yang diterima secara luas.
