Agreement between HRCT Imaging and Intraoperative Measurements in Predicting Stapedotomy Prosthesis Length in Otosclerosis Patients.

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of preoperative high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) imaging in measuring the distance from the long process of the incus to the footplate and its potential for predicting the optimal prosthesis length required for stapedotomy in patients with otosclerosis.

Materials And Methods: This cross-sectional study included fifty patients scheduled for primary stapedotomy. A radiologist obtained and reconstructed preoperative HRCT scans of the temporal bone to measure the distance from the long process of the incus to the oval window in both axial and coronal views.

Comparison of Oral Preoperative Clonidine with Infusion of Intraoperative Labetalol on Bleeding during Tympanoplasty Surgery.

Introduction: Surgical bleeding is one of the most critical complications in various surgical procedures. In middle ear surgery, managing bleeding is a significant challenge for anesthesiologists because even minor bleeding can obstruct the surgeon's vision and prolong the surgery. Our objective is to compare the impact of preoperative oral clonidine versus labetalol infusion on bleeding volume during tympanoplasty surgery.

Stroke a rare manifestation of isolated sphenoid sinus aspergilloma: a case report.

Isolated sphenoid sinus disease is a rare paranasal sinus (PNS) problem, comprising only 2-3% of cases of sinonasal diseases. It is caused mainly by inflammation, and neoplastic causes are exceedingly rare. Due to the nonspecific nature of the symptoms and possible complications, the proper diagnosis and treatment has paramount importance.

Cochlear Implantation in Children with Meningitis: A Multicenter Study on Auditory Performance and Speech Production Outcomes.

Background: This study aims to evaluate speech production outcomes and auditory performance in children with post-meningitis deafness who were treated with cochlear implants. Additionally, the study assesses the impact of electrode insertion depth on surgical outcomes.".

Oral Isotretinoin Treatment in Rhinoplasty: A Review.

The achievement of best outcome in rhinoplasty is very important for both of the patients and plastic surgeons. Since the skin characteristics (e.g.

Association between Serum Vitamin D Levels and Risk of Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss: A cross-sectional Study.

Background: Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is an autoimmune diseases of the inner ear which is usually defined by acute onset of hearing loss in one or both ears, of 30 dB or more on at least three contiguous audiometric frequencies within 3 days or less. This study aimed to compare the serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (VitD) between patients with SSNHL and healthy controls.

Methods: A total of 50 patients with SSNHL and 50 healthy individuals without hearing loss as control group were enrolled in this study.

Evaluation of Sudden Sensory-Neural Hearing Loss Patients Treated with Systemic Steroids with Additional Intratympanic Dexamethasone Injection in Different Intervals; a Clinical Trial Study.

Unlabelled: Sudden Sensory-Neural Hearing Loss (SSNHL) is one of the most important otologic emergency. Although adding intratympanic (IT) steroids to systematic steroid may be beneficial, the exact timing of the IT injections to provide the best response needs further investigations. To compare different protocols in treting sudden sensorineural hearing loss.

Middle Ear Primary Oncocytic Schneiderian Papilloma: A Case Report.

Introduction: Chronic otitis media is a significant health problem, but middle ear and mastoid neoplasms, either benign or malignant, are extremely rare.

Case Report: Here is a report from a 51-year-old female who presented persistent otorrhea with an aural polyp. The patient was operated on with the probable diagnosis of cholesteatoma.

Predicting round window visibility by HRCT during cochlear implantation in children.

The present study aimed to radiologically evaluate the visibility of round window during cochlear implantation by high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) imaging of temporal bone. : This was a cross-sectional descriptive analytic study. Two new radiologic measurements were evaluated on the presurgical HRCT of temporal bone, including (1) the angle between the line parallel to coronal axis that passes through the middle of the round window niche (RWN) and the line that connects the anterior portion of facial nerve (FN) to the middle of the RWN (RWN angle) and (2) the vertical distance between this coronal plane and the anterior portion of the FN, modified facial recess distance (MFRD).

Combined Effects of Retinoic Acid and Hydro-Alcoholic Extract of Rosa Damascena Mill on Wound in Diabetic Rats.

Retinoic acid and Rosa damascena are compounds that have considerable effects in the cellular proliferation and synthesis of extracellular matrix. The present study was designed to assess the combined effects of retinoic acid and Rosa damascena mill on wound in diabetic rats. Seventy-two rats were used in this study.
