There are many methods to perform DCR but our approach was diode laser assisted endoscopic DCR. The Objective is to study the outcomes of diode laser assisted endoscopic DCR. Material and Methods: This hospital based prospective non-randomized interventional clinical trial included 49 patients with chronic dacryocystitisat National Institute of ENTbetween august 2015 to July 2016. Success and complications were assessed by evaluating the patient at 1 week, 1 month, 3 month,6 month postoperatively and at least 3 month after removal of silicon tube those who were intubated by nasal endoscopy and sac patency test. Success was defined as absence of epiphora and patency of lacrimal drainage system. Results: Mean age with SD was 44.96 ±15.807 (Range 13 – 70 years). Patients between age group 40 – 60 yrs. was the highest (40.8%), Female were predominant 35 (71.4%) than male. Male Female Ratio was 1: 2.5. Septoplasty for DNS in 8 (16.33%) cases, turbinoplastyfor hypertrophied terbinatein 1 case were performed. Complications were injury to middle turbinate, sump syndrome, syneachia and granulation tissue formation. Overall success rate of DCR was seen in 87.76% cases. Conclusion: Laserassisted endoscopic DCR surgery eliminate the need of conventional external DCR. It is easy to perform, cosmetically good, high tech and has excellent outcome.","PeriodicalId":53915,"journal":{"name":"Bangladesh Journal of Otorhinolaryngology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2020-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44254612","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 is an uncommon congenital anomaly of nose with an incidence of approximately 1 in 5000-7000 live births. Choanal atresia is caused by failure of resorption of the nasobuccal membrane during embryonic development. Choanal atresia has a significant association with CHARGE syndrome. Surgical intervention is recommended in the first weeks of life in bilateral cases because this is a life threatening condition. Two cases of congenital bilateral choanla atresia (CCA) was admitted in the department of Otolaryngology & Head-Neck Surgery at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) with the complaints of intermittent attacks of cyanosis, dyspnea, respiratory distress and history of inability to take feeds. On examination both babies had respiratory distress, mucoid discharge from both nasal cavities. A soft rubber catheter was passed into both nares revealed the diagnosis of bilateral CCA which was confirmed by flexible nasoendoscopy. Bilateral CCA was managed with a nasopharyngeal airway. Surgery is the definitive treatment with two main approaches namely transnasal and transpalatal.

Clinical history, physical examination and appropriate knowledge of embryology and anatomy of the cervical region frequently allow the differential diagnosis to be narrowed and ultrasound especially high frequency ultrasound help to further confirmation. USG has been used as the initial imaging procedure in the evaluation of them. Ultrasound not only confirms the cystic nature of the lesion but also evaluates exact location, size, extent, relation to the surrounding structures and internal characteristic of mass. Objectives: To establish the usefulness of ultrasound in the evaluation of congenital cystic neck masses. Methods: From January 2014 to March 2018 a total 50 patients with clinically suspected congenital cystic mass in the neck region were selected who under want operative treatment and histopathological examination. A through history taking and physical examination were done then patient were scanned with gray scale ultrasound and colour Doppler in necessary case. Histopathological report collected from the patient and compare with USG diagnosis. Results: In USG 37 patient diagnosed as congenital lesions and 13 patient diagnosed as non-congenital lesion. Among the congenital lesions thyroglossal duct cyst-19, branchial cleft cyst-12, cystic hygroma-4, hemangioma-1 and epidermoid cyst-1. In histopathology 32 patient diagnosed as congenital lesion and 18 diagnosed as non-congenital lesion. Among the congenital lesions thyroglossal duct cyst-18, branchial cleft cyst-8, cystic hygroma-4, hemangioma-1 and epidermoid cyst-1. Among the 19 USG diagnosed thyroglossal duct cyst 17 is confirmed by histopathology and 2 is differ. Among the 12 USG diagnosed branchial cleft cyst 7 is confirmed by histopathology and 5 is differ. Over all sensitivity of USG-93.7% and specificity-64% and accuracy-74%.

Controlled hypotension is a technique used to limit intraoperative blood loss to provide the best possible field for surgery. Objectives: Our study is undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine as a hypotensive agent in comparison to esmolol in Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS). Methods: Sixty (60) patients 20 – 50 years of age, ASA I/II scheduled for FESS were randomly assigned to two equal groups of 30 patients each. Patients of group D received dexmedetomidine 1μg/kg over 10 min before induction of anesthesia followed by 0.4 – 0.8 μg/kg/hr infusion during maintenance and group E received esmolol loading dose 1mg/kg was infused over one min followed by 0.4 – 0.8 mg/kg/hr infusion during maintenance to maintain mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) between (55 – 65 mmHg). The surgical field was assessed using Average Category Scale and average blood loss was calculated. Hemodynamic variables (MAP, HR); intraoperative fentanyl consumption and total recovery from anesthesia (Aldrete’s score ≥9) were recorded. Sedation score was determined at 10, 20, 30, 40 & 60 min after tracheal extubation and time to first analgesic demand was also recorded. Results: In both group D and group E reached the desired MAP (55–65 mmHg) with no inter group difference in MAP or HR. Mean intraoperative fentanyl consumption was significantly lower in group D than group E. Recovery time to achieved Aldrete’s score ≥9 were significantly lower in group E compared with group D. The sedation score were significantly lower in group E compared with group D at 10 minutes, 20 minutes and 30 minutes postoperatively. Time to first analgesic demand was significantly longer in group D. Conclusion: The result of this study showed that both dexmedetomidine and esmolol can be used as agents for controlled hypotension and are effective in providing ideal surgical field during FESS.
