RESUMO

PURPOSE: To explore a minimally invasive trans-canal endoscopic facial nerve decompression for traumatic facial nerve palsy and compare it with microscopic facial nerve decompression. METHODS: 35 and 38 patients underwent endoscopic and microscopic facial nerve decompression, respectively, for traumatic facial nerve palsy. Onset of symptoms, type of temporal bone fracture, day of surgical intervention following trauma, ossicular chain status and nature of insult to facial nerve were observed. Time period for recovery (House Brackmann grade ≤ 3), long term recovery rates, pre- and post-operative hearing status, surgical time and post-operative pain were compared between groups. RESULTS: Maximum patients in endoscopic and microscopic groups (77.1% and 76.3%, respectively) had acute onset of symptoms. 57.1% (20/35) had longitudinal, 17.1% (6/35) had transverse and 25.7% (9/35) had mixed fractures in endoscopic group. In the microscopic group, 57.9% (22/38) had longitudinal, 18.4% (7/38) had transverse and 23.7% (9/38) had mixed fractures. The mean (± S.D.) post-operative air-bone gap in endoscopic and microscopic group were 16.47 ± 4.5 dB and 19.4 ± 5.2 dB, respectively, which was statistically significant. The mean (± S.D.) time period for recovery of endoscopic and microscopic groups were 14.4 ± 5 days and 22.5 ± 7 days, respectively (p value < 0.05). The difference in post-operative pain between the two groups was also statistically significant. The difference in long term recovery rates was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Endoscopic facial nerve decompression results in early recovery, less post-operative pain and better post-operative air-bone gap closure when compared to conventional microscopic technique.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To document and analyse demographic data, clinical presentation, possible interventions for early clinical detection and management of post-COVID-19 rhino-orbito-cerebral mucormycosis (ROCM). METHOD: 32 patients having history of SARS-CoV-2 infection with features of ROCM were observed in terms of their history, presenting features, clinical, microbiological examination, type of surgical intervention, surgical sites of involvement which were subsequently analyzed. RESULTS: The mean (± S.D.) age of patients was 57 ± 13 years. All patients were diabetic. Mean (± S.D.) time of onset of ROCM symptoms, since onset of COVID-19 symptoms was 18 (± 4) days. 12.5% patients were fully vaccinated. 78.1% patients received steroid therapy; 28.1% received high flow nasal oxygen. 87.5% patients had blurring of vision, 65.62% headache, 59.37% cheek and eyelid swelling, 50% proptosis, 46.87% ophthalmoplegia, 40.62% ptosis, 40.62% loss of sensation over cheek, 25% orbital pain. Examination of specimen with KOH mount revealed Mucor spp. in all patients. 87.5% patients underwent endoscopic sinus surgery with debridement with/without orbital clearance; 56.25% maxillectomy; 25% orbital exenteration. 87.5% patients had paranasal sinus involvement, 43.75% orbit sparing orbital apex, 68.75% orbit with orbital apex. 81.25% patients had involvement of pterygopalatine fossa±infratemporal fossa. 50% patients had disease in Vidian canal and pterygoid wedge. 25% of patients had involvement of palate and 56.25% cheek and eyelid soft tissues. CONCLUSION: A judicious COVID treatment protocol, high index of suspicion, close monitoring of high-risk patients and early institution of treatment can prevent case severity and reduce mortality.

RESUMO

Primary osteosarcoma of sphenoid and ethmoid sinus present as a challenge in head neck cancer. A 17 year female presented with left sided hemifacial pain, headache with nasal discharge. Clinico-radiological finding showed mass in sphenoethmoid recess spreading to adjacent structures. Endoscopic resection was done. Histopathological diagnosis was osteosarcoma of sphenoid and ethmoid sinus. Adjuvant chemotherapy administered. Osteosarcomas of sphenoid and ethmoid sinus are aggressive tumors with variable clinical features warranting high clinical suspicion.

RESUMO

To evaluate hearing results following canal wall down mastoidectomy with ossicular reconstruction for Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media of Active Squamosal variety & evaluate various factors related to surgery impacting hearing results. This prospective study involves 40 patients of active squamosal variety of chronic otitis media who attended ENT OPD and underwent canal wall down mastoidectomy with ossiculoplasty during the period from November 2014 to October 2015. All the patients were subjected to pre and 3 months post-op hearing assessment. Based on the hearing outcome, we expressed our study results into two groups, those with statistically significant improvement after surgery (T1) and those whose hearing got worsened or remained the same (T2). The mean post operative hearing gain of patients was 5.25 ± 7.30 dB, The median post-op hearing gain was 5.20 dB. Mean pre-operative hearing loss (AB gap) was 41.28 dB. Mean post-operative hearing loss (AB gap) was 36.24 with the average 3 months post-operative hearing gain was 5.2 dB, which reflects a definite improvement. There is a statistically significant hearing improvement (with an average of 5.2 dB AB gap closure) following Canal Wall Down Mastoidectomy with ossiculoplasty as established in the study.
