introduction: nasal polyps are benign prolapsed mucosal lesions which commonly arise from the paranasal sinuses and lateral walls of the nose especially the contact areas of osteomeatal complex. though nasal polyps arising from the nasal septum have been reported, those arising from its anterior part are extremely rare and present a diagnostic dilemma.  aetiology is multifactorial and is mainly...

Background: Tracheal intubation for general anesthesia induction can be performed via oral or nasal routes. There is a controversy about nasal route especially in children with corrected coagulopathy because of the probable stimulation for bleeding. We aimed to determine naso-pharynx bleeding in patients with corrected coagulopathy after nasotracheal intubation. Methods: This quasi-experimenta...

 Abstract Introduction: external nasal walls are  an important factor  in the drainage or obstruction of the ostiomeatal complex, therfor  anatomical variations in the nasal cavity can elevate the risk of pathological sinus conditions. The aim of this study is to evaluate anatomical variations of paranasal sinuses and nasal cavities using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Materials and ...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The aim of this study was to ascertain the most reliable objective measurement for the assessment of nasal patency by investigating the relationship between peak nasal inspiratory flow, peak oral inspiratory flow, and the nasal patency index in relation to the patient's subjective perception regarding nasal obstruction. STUDY DESIGN Prospective cohort study. METHODS Th...
