Nasoseptal cyst after septorhinoplasty: late and unusual but preventable compliation.

Nasoseptal cyst after septorhinoplasty: late and unusual but preventable complication. INTRODUCTION: Formation if a slowly growing cyst following septorhinoplasty is a rare but serious complication. Mucous cyst is more common than foreign body inclusion cyst. Typically, these cysts present as a solitary lesion that develops in the subcutaneous pace over the nasal bone along the line of nasal osteotomy several months or years after initial surgery. Rarely, the cyst onnects with the nasal septum. Surgery is the treatment of choice and consists of either complete excision of the cyst apsule or marsupialization of the cyst. ase report: A nasoseptal mucous cyst developed in a 46-year-old woman 10 years after septorhinoplasty. We successfully narsupialized the cyst with an endonasal endoscopic approach. onclusion:. Cysts can be removed by either complete resection of the cyst capsule or marsupialization via endonasal endoscopy. To prevent cyst formation, initial surgery must be conducted nontraumatically and tissue remnants cleared to prevent dispersion into subcutaneous spaces.

Middle turbinate primary mucocele in a child masquerading as a nasal tumour.

Middle turbinate primary mucocele in a child masquerading as a nasal tumour. INTRODUCTION: Nasal obstruction in children is a very common complaint in daily ENT consultations. The common cold, rhinosinusitis, allergic rhinitis, hypertrophy and inflammation of the adenoid pad are very common causes of nasal obstruction, but there are numerous other causes for which the clinician must be aware. METHODOLOGY: The authors report a very unusual case of a primary mucocele of the middle turbinate of a 7-year-old girl masquerading as a nasal tumour. RESULTS: The mucocele was successfully marsupialized surgically using an endonasal endoscopic approach. The authors report the case, imaging, and review the pertinent literature. CONCLUSION: Clinicians must be aware of less common aetiologies of nasal obstruction in order to orientate the diagnostic work-up and to propose adequate management.

[Myringoplasties for anterior tympanic perforations: Our surgical technique]. / Myringoplastie pour les perforations tympaniques antérieures: notre technique opératoire.

Anterior tympanic perforations are actually the most difficult to close and a number of different techniques exist. This article represents the author's surgical procedure for type I tympanoplasties (myringoplasties) for this kind of perforation using the tragal cartilage and the perichondrium after preparation (revival, cleaning) of the perforation edge with a laser. This technique does not use a skin incision of external auditory meatus, when this one is large.

[Reconstruction of bone defects in the earcanal with hydroxyapatite]. / Reconstruction des defects osseux du conduit auditif externe par ciment d'hydroxyapatite.

Traditional reconstruction methods of osseous defects within the tympanic frame, most often being the atticotomy, within the framework of chronic otitis media surgery, still do not produce stable or definitive results, usually due to displacement or partial lyse of the transplanted material (cartilage, bone ...). The reconstruction procedure with the aid of hydroxyapatite cement as presented by the authors, allows for a complete, stable and definitive reconstruction.
