RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To study various etiologies of traumatic tympanic membrane perforation; evaluate the factors involved in healing of traumatic tympanic membrane perforation; and identify patients with perforations unlikely to benefit from conservative management.METHODS:Design: Prospective observational studySetting: Tertiary Government Medical College and HospitalParticipants: 64 consecutive cases of traumatic tympanic membrane perforation seen over one year were followed for 3 months. Perforations were assessed in terms of size, etiology, condition of edge and other associated factors or combinations of factors with regards to spontaneous healing using descriptive statistics and chi-square tests.RESULTS: Of the 64 cases, 51 perforations healed while 13 did not. There were significant associations between tympanic membrane condition after 3 months and explosive mode of injury (?2 = 23.30; p=.00001) as well as with size of perforation ((?2 = 25.75; p=.00001). The risk of persistence of a tympanic membrane perforation was 34.57 times more among patients with a perforation size >50% compared to those with perforation size ?50% [OR-34.57 (6.28, 190.14); p= .00001]. Combined, explosive etiology and perforation size >50% were significantly associated with non-healing ((?2 = 37.60; p = .00001). There were no significant associations with the condition of the edge of the perforation and upper respiratory tract infection.CONCLUSIONS: An explosive etiology and tympanic membrane perforation size >50% may be significant risk factors predicting non-healing of the perforation. Risk stratification of patients having one or both of these risk factors with early intervention for those with both, and close monitoring for those with any one of these may lessen unnecessary morbidity. Bigger multicenter future studies are necessary to confirm these initial findings.

RESUMO

Ectrodactyly‑ectodermal dysplasia and clefting syndrome or “Lobster claw” deformity is a rare congenital anomaly that affects tissues of ectodermal and mesodermal origin. Nasolacrimal duct (NLD) obstruction with or without atresia of lacrimal passage is a common finding of such a syndrome. The authors report here even a rarer presentation of the syndrome which manifested as bilateral NLD obstruction and lacrimal fistula along with cleft lip and palate, syndactyly affecting all four limbs, mild mental retardation, otitis media, and sinusitis. Lacrimal duct obstruction and fistula were managed successfully with endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) which is a good alternative to lacrimal probing or open DCR in such a case.

RESUMO

Neurilemmoma in postaural region arising from great auricular nerve is an extremely rare tumour. An 11 years boy presented with pain and swelling behind his left ear for last 3-4 years. The clinical examination revealed the swelling appeared to be diffuse with the margin being ill defined. On radiological examination a diffuse homogeneous mass was seen in the postaural region of the left side. The tumour was completely removed by an incision through postaural route. Histopathological study revealed neurilemmoma. Postoperative period was uneventful.

RESUMO

Overall data in the feld of 'gerontology' are scarce in India. Some major geriatric problems in otolaryngology like presbyacusis, disequilibrium, vertigo, tinnitus, nasal and pharyngeal changes, voice change, dysphagia, arthritis, snoring, falls, have been briefly addressed to in the present article.
