Mucociliary transport and histologic characteristics of the mucosa of deviated nasal septum.
OBJECTIVE To investigate differences in mucociliary clearance, histologic characteristics, and surface structure of the bilateral nasal septal mucosa in patients with nasal septal deviation. DESIGN Mucociliary transport was measured by saccharin clearance time in both nasal cavities of 20 patients with nasal septal deviation. Their septal mucosae were taken during septoplasty, and the ciliary...
متن کاملSleep apnea syndrome treated by repair of deviated nasal septum.
Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) often presents a difficult therapeutic problem to the clinician since many of the accepted modes of therapy are associated with only partial success or with a number of long-term complications. We present three patients with obstructive SAS in whom dramatic clinical improvement occurred following repair of a deviated nasal septum. The subjective improvement was associ...
متن کاملCorrelation of asymmetric facial growth with deviated nasal septum.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To evaluate the correlation between growth differences of the face and nasal septal deviation, and to evaluate whether developmental differences of the face have an effect on nontraumatic nasal septal deviation (DNS). STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study. METHODS Twenty-five patients with DNS who underwent facial aesthetic surgery and had an ostiomeatal unit-computed tomog...
متن کاملPiezoelectric sensing: Evaluation for clinical investigation of deviated nasal septum
Noninvasive objective evaluation of nasal airflow is one of the important clinical aspects. The developed polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) sensor enables measurement of airflow through each side of the nose using its piezoelectric property. This study was designed to evaluate the diagnostic capability of the PVDF sensor in assessing the deviated nasal septum (DNS). PVDF nasal sensor uses its piez...
متن کاملThe effects of a 1.8 GHz continuous electromagnetic fields on mucociliary transport of human nasal mucosa.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a 1.8 GHz continuous electromagnetic fields (EMF) on human nasal mucociliary transport, and to determine the pathophysiology of ciliary beat frequency (CBF) during an EMF-induced change. METHODS Human nasal mucosa cells were exposed to a 1.8 GHz EMF (SAR=1.0 W/kg), and CBF was analyzed using an optical flow techniqu...
