A rostrocaudal (RCd) nasal view was developed in large breed mesaticephalic dogs using a complete, subsequently sectioned, skull and cadaver specimens to optimise the radiographic technique and evaluate normal anatomic features. Gelatin was placed in one nasal passage of the cadaver specimens to mimic the effects of nasal pathology. The latter specimens and 18 clinical cases with suspected nasa...

Introduction: Rhinologists have to be aware of the excruciating pain exerted by nasal packs on its introduction and removal. Thus the validity of need for nasal packing following septoplasty is considered under study for its most painful symptom. Objective: To compare the degree of pain and discomfort in patients with quilting of nasal septum and nasal packing after septoplasty using visual ana...

INTRODUCTION Burkitt's lymphoma is a highly aggressive, small, non-cleaved B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. In the sporadic form of the disease that occurs in non-endemic areas around the world, most commonly in developed countries, patients usually present with an abdominal mass that frequently involves the ileocecal region of the bowel; ocular or orbital involvement is rare. Primary disease of ...

OBJECTIVES The objectives of this study were to describe and compare two techniques used to correct nasal septum deviations located in the dorsal and/or caudal septum. STUDY DESIGN The authors conducted a retrospective clinical chart review. METHODS The authors conducted a comparison of functional and technical results between surgery in the L-strut of the septum in 114 patients with septal...

Asian people frequently show small noses, narrow nasal apertures, and congestive mucosa on the turbinates and septum. To reduce the risk of nasal morbidity with increased radicality for skull base tumors in these patients, we developed endoscopic transnasal interseptal approach (ETISA) in transsphenoidal surgery for invasive clival tumors (ICTs). Indication for ETISA is radical resection for tu...

In this article, we briefly review the aetiology and symptoms of nasal septal perforations, and focus on a surgical reconstruction technique of which the results were retrospectively studied. The technique described, involves the interposition of a connective tissue graft between differently designed local mucoperichondrial and/or mucoperiosteal flaps on each side of the perforation, thereby pr...

The term extranasopharyngeal angiofibroma has been applied to vascular, fibrous nodules occurring outside the nasopharynx. The maxillary sinus is the most common site involved, while the nasal septum represents an extremely rare localization. Computerized tomography scan and magnetic resonance imaging are used to determine the tumour site and its extension. Surgical excision of the mass is the ...

leprosy is an infectious and non-fatal disease that mainly involved skin and peripheral nervous system and caused by mycobacterium lepra. this case is a 41-year-old woman with intermittent nasal bleeding and a mass (1.5×2.5 cm) in the right side of lateral nasal wall and a (1×1 cm) mass on septum in the left side of the nose. considering the probability of intranasal tumor, endoscopic biopsy fo...

Primary squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal septum is an extremely rare malignancy. In this article, we report a case of 52-year-old female with a complaint of nasal obstruction along with occasional nasal bleeding for one year. Endoscopy showed a 2.5x2 cm perforation originating from the anterior nasal septum. Incisional biopsy result was reported as squamous cell carcinoma. The tumor was rem...
