A reliable and comprehensive assessment of nasal breathing is problematic and still a common issue in rhinosurgery. Impairments of nasal breathing need an objective approach. In this regard, currently rhinomanometry is the only standard diagnostic tool available but has various limitations. However, in the last decade, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become a promising method in facing t...

Globe perforation was detected in an 18-year-old male patient having total vision loss in the left eye following a car accident. The middle meatus could not be evaluated by sinonasal endoscopy because of edema. Computed tomography showed a foreign body in the left posterior ethmoid sinus, with a trajectory coursing from the globe to the lamina papyracea, and the posterior ethmoid sinus. Endosco...

Optical magnification has become an essential tool in rhinologic practice, especially following the popularisation of endoscopic procedures for nasal sinus surgery. We describe the use of VITOM® technology in rhinoplasty, which to our knowledge has not been reported in the international literature to date. This approach to rhinoplasty markedly improves visualisation of the surgical field, there...
