ABSTRACT

SUMMARY: The aim of this research was to analyze the morphology of the nasal septum and inferior nasal concha bone in class III facial deformities prior to orthodontic treatment in orthognathic surgery candidates. 40 subjects were included in this research. The inclusion criteria were an Angle class III, negative overjet and SNA angle less than 80º. Patients with facial asymmetry, facial trauma or who had undergone maxillofacial or ENT procedures were excluded. CBCT images were obtained for all the patients and the nasal septum deviation, morphology of inferior nasal concha bone and ostium of the maxillary sinus were analyzed and related to the complexity of the facial deformity expressed by the ANB angle and dental relations. The measurement was standardized by ICC and the data was analyzed using a chi square test and Spearman's coefficient with a p value < 0.005 for statistical significance. Nasal septal deviation was observed in 77.5 %. The deviation angle was 13.28º (±4.68º) and the distance from the midline to the most deviated septum was 5.56 mm (±1.8 mm) with no statistical relation to the complexity of the facial deformity. The deviated nasal septum showed inferior nasal concha bone hypertrophy on the concave side of the nasal septum deviation (p=0.049). The open or closed condition of the maxillary sinus ostium was not related to any conditions in the septum or complexity of the facial deformity. Inferior nasal concha bone hypertrophy could be related to nasal septal deviation. The nasal condition in a class III facial deformity could not differ from the general population; careful in orthognathic surgery as to be assume in the Le Fort I Osteotomy and nasal approach related to nasal septum deviation and inferior nasal concha bone.


RESUMEN: El objetivo de esta investigación fue analizar la morfología del septum y la concha nasal inferior en sujetos con deformidad facial clase III previo al tratamiento de ortodoncia preparatorio para cirugía ortognática. Fueron incluidos 40 sujetos en esta investigación. Los criterios de inclusión fueron la de presentar una clase III de Angle, overjet negativo y ángulo SNA menor que 80º. Sujetos con asimetría facial, trauma facial o quienes presentaron algún tipo de procedimiento maxilofacial o de otorrinolaringología fueron excluidos. Tomografía computadorizada cone beam (CBCT) fueron obtenidas para todos los sujetos donde le morfología del septum nasal, morfología de la concha nasal inferior y el ostium del seno maxilar fueron analizados y relacionados con la complejidad de la deformidad facial expresada como ángulo ANB y relaciones dentales. Las medidas fueron estandarizadas por el ICC y los datos fueron analizados utilizando la prueba chi cuadrado y coeficiente de Spearman con un valor de p<0,05 para obtener relaciones significativas. La desviación del septum nasal se observó en el 77,5 %; el ángulo de desvío fue de 13,28º (±4,68º) y la distancia de desvío del septum desde la línea media fue de 5,56 mm (±1,8 mm) sin diferencias estadísticas en relación a la complejidad de la deformidad. El desvío de septum nasal demostró hipertrofia de la concha nsal inferior en el lado cóncavo del septum desviado (p=0,049). La condición de ostium abierto o cerrado no fue relacionado con ninguna condición del septum nasal o complejidad de la deformidad facial. La hipertrofia de la concha nasal inferior se relacionó con el desvío de septum nasal. La condición nasal en deformidad facial de clase III no es diferente de la observada en la población general; cuidados deben ser realizados en cirugía ortognática para el desarrollo de la osteotomía de Le Fort I y aproximación nasal en relación al desvío de septum y probable alteración de la concha nasal inferior.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Introduction: Chronic upper airway obstruction due to marked nasal septal deviation may cause chronic hypoxia. It may change the balance of the sympathetic-parasympathetic system and may affect blood flow in the choroid. Objective: To assess choroidal thickness measurements of patients with marked nasal septal deviation. Methods: The patients who had nasal obstruction symptoms diagnosed with marked nasal septal deviation by anterior rhinoscopy and nasal endoscopy and scheduled for septoplasty were included in the study. The control group consisted of age, sex and body mass index-matched healthy individuals. The choroidal measurements at the central fovea and 1000 µm away from the fovea in the nasal and temporal regions were performed using enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography. Results: In the study group, 52 eyes of 26 patients with a mean age of 26.34 ± 8.14 years were examined. In the control group, 52 eyes of 28 healthy individuals with a mean age of 26.69 ± 7.84 years were examined. There was no statistically significant difference in terms of choroidal thickness measurements between the groups (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Our results suggest that marked nasal septal deviation may not lead to significant hypoxia and sympathetic activation, resulting in deterioration of the choroidal blood flow and consequent choroidal thickening.


Resumo Introdução: A obstrução crônica das vias aéreas superiores devido a acentuado desvio do septo nasal pode causar hipóxia crônica. Pode alterar o equilíbrio do sistema simpático-parassimpático e afetar o fluxo sanguíneo na coroide. Objetivo: Avaliar as medidas da espessura da coroide em pacientes com acentuado desvio de septo nasal. Método: Foram incluídos no estudo pacientes que apresentavam sintomas de obstrução nasal, com diagnóstico de acentuado desvio de septo realizado por rinoscopia anterior e endoscopia nasal, e com septoplastia programada. O grupo controle consistiu de indivíduos saudáveis pareados por idade, sexo e índice de massa corporal. As medidas da coroide na fóvea central e a 1.000 µm da fóvea nas regiões nasal e temporal foram feitas com tomografia de coerência óptica com imagem de profundidade melhorada. Resultados: No grupo de pacientes, 52 olhos de 26 pacientes com média de 26,34 ± 8,14 anos foram examinados. No grupo controle, 52 olhos de 28 indivíduos saudáveis com média de 26,69 ± 7,84 anos foram examinados. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante em termos de medidas da espessura da coroide entre os grupos (p > 0,05). Conclusão: Nossos resultados sugerem que desvios do septo nasal acentuados podem não levar à hipóxia significativa e ativação simpática, resultar na deterioração do fluxo sanguíneo coroidal e consequente espessamento da coroide.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Introducción: La rinoseptoplastía es una cirugía compleja y desafiante. Permite resolver problemas estéticos y funcionales de la nariz. Objetivo: Describir la experiencia en rinoseptoplastías realizadas en el Comité de Nariz en nuestro centro. Material y método: Estudio descriptivo de pacientes sometidos a rinoseptoplastía entre 2013 y 2015. Resultados: Se operaron 265 pacientes en 3 años, 164 (61,8%) fueron mujeres y la edad promedio fue de 29 años (rango 13-73). Las cirugías fueron principalmente primarias (secundarias: 2,6%). El abordaje más utilizado fue abierto (92,5%). Se realizó trabajo de punta nasal en 253 (95,5%) pacientes; resección del dorso osteocartilaginoso en 252 (95,1%), y aumento de éste en sólo 5 (1,9%). Las osteotomías fueron frecuentes: paramedianas en 229 (86,4%), percutánea lateral bilateral en 217 (81,9%) y percutánea lateral unilateral en 17 (6,4%). El vástago columelar fue el injerto de punta más frecuentemente utilizado, en 241 (90,9%) pacientes, seguido del escudo en 69 (26,0%). En el dorso, se utilizaron autoespaciadores en 124 (46,7%) pacientes, y espaciadores en 109 (41,1%). Conclusiones: El abordaje abierto fue el más frecuente, demostrando ser favorable en nuestro centro por la exposición y aprendizaje de nuestros residentes. Se constató 2,6% de cirugías secundarias. Se destaca el uso de vástago columelar para otorgar soporte a la punta nasal dada la alta prevalencia de nariz hispana en nuestro centro.


ABSTRACT Introduction: Rhinoseptoplasty is a complex and challenging surgery. It addresses nasal aesthetics and functionality. Aim: To describe the experience in rhinoseptoplasty performed by the Nose Committee at our medical center. Material and method: Descriptive study, of the all rhinoseptoplasties performed by the Nose Committee between 2013 and 2015. Results: 265 patients underwent surgery in the 3-year period; 164 (61.8%) were women and the mean age was 29 years (range 13-73). Most were primary surgeries (secondary: 2.6%). An external approach was most commonly used (92.5%). Nasal tip surgery was performed in 253 (95.5%) patients; osteocartilaginous dorsum reduction in 252 (95,1%), and augmentation in only 5 (1,9%). Osteotomies were frequent: paramedian in 229 (86.4%), bilateral percutaneous lateral osteotomies in 217 (81.9%) and unilateral percutaneous lateral in 17 (6.4%). Regarding nasal tip grafts, columellar strut was most often used, in 241 (90,9%) patients, followed by the shield graft in 69 (26,0%). For the dorsum, autospreaders were used in 124 (46.7%), and spreader grafts in 109 (41.1%). Conclusions: Open rhinoseptoplasty was the most commonly used approach. This has shown favorable for residents due to better exposition of nasal anatomy. Only 2.6% were secondary rhinoseptoplasties. We emphasize the use of the columellar strut for nasal tip support as we frequently encounter hispanic noses at our center.

ABSTRACT

O desvio de septo nasal, concha bolhosa e a obstrução do óstio são alterações do complexo osteomeatal, que podem interferir no volume dos seios maxilares, em sua oxigenação, drenagem adequada de fluidos e nos resultados de cirurgias nessa região. A adoção de um protocolo de avaliação do complexo osteomeatal envolvendo uma equipe multidisciplinar no planejamento de cirurgias de levantamento de seio maxilar pode proporcionar a diminuição do surgimento de complicações pós-operatórias relacionadas à drenagem e ventilação, prejudicadas pelo desvio de septo nasal, concha bolhosa e obstrução do óstio.


Nasal septum deviation, concha bullosa and ostium obstruction are alterations of the osteomeatal complex that may interfere with the volume of the maxillary sinuses, their oxygenation, adequate drainage of fluids and the results of surgeries in this region. The adoption of a protocol for evaluation of the osteomeatal complex involving a multidisciplinary team in the planning of surgeries of maxillary sinus can provide a reduction in the appearance of postoperative complications related to drainage and ventilation impaired by nasal septum deviation, concha bullosa and obstruction of the ostium.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Introduction Septal deviation is a common disease seen in daily otorhinolaryngology practice and septoplasty is a commonly performed surgical procedure. Caudal septum deviation is also a challenging pathology for ear, nose, and throat specialists. Many techniques are defined for caudal septal deviation. Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of caudal septal extension graft (CSEG) application in patients who underwent endonasal septoplasty for a short and deviated nasal septum. Methods Forty patients with nasal septal deviation, short nasal septum, and weak nasal tip support who underwent endonasal septoplasty with or without CSEG placement between August 2012 and June 2013 were enrolled in this study. Twenty patients underwent endonasal septoplasty with CSEG placement. The rest of the group, who rejected auricular or costal cartilage harvest for CSEG placement, underwent only endonasal septoplasty without any additional intervention. Using the Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) and Rhinoplasty Outcome Evaluation (ROE) questionnaires, pre- and post-operative acoustic rhinometer measurements were evaluated to assess the effect of CESG placement on nasal obstruction. Results In the control group, preoperative and postoperative minimal cross-sectional areas (MCA1) were 0.44 ± 0.10 cm2 and 0.60 ± 0.11 cm2, respectively (p < 0.001). In the study group, pre- and postoperative MCA1 values were 0.45 ± 0.16 cm2 and 0.67 ± 0.16 cm2, respectively (p < 0.01). In the control group, the nasal cavity volume (VOL1) value was 1.71 ± 0.21 mL preoperatively and 1.94 ± 0.17 mL postoperatively (p < 0.001). In the study group, pre- and postoperative VOL1s were 1.72 ± 0.15 mL and 1.97 ± 0.12 mL, respectively (p < 0.001). Statistical analysis of postoperative MCA1 and VOL1 values in the study and the control groups could not detect any significant intergroup difference (p = 0.093 and 0.432, respectively). In the study group, mean nasolabial angles were 78.15 ± 4.26º and 90.70 ± 2.38º, respectively (p < 0.001). Conclusion Endonasal septoplasty with CESG placement is an effective surgical procedure with minimal complication rate for subjects who have a deviated, short nasal septum and weak nasal tip support.


Resumo Introdução Desvio septal é doença comum no cotidiano da prática otorrinolaringológica e a septoplastia é procedimento cirúrgico comum. Desvio caudal do septo nasal é também uma condição desafiadora para os otorrinolaringologistas. São muitas as técnicas definidas para desvio caudal do septo nasal. Objetivo Avaliar a eficácia da aplicação de enxerto de extensão septal caudal (EESC) em pacientes que passaram por septoplastia endonasal devido a septo nasal curto e com desvio. Método Foram recrutados para o estudo 40 pacientes com desvio de septo nasal, septo nasal curto e fraca sustentação da ponta do nariz, tratados com septoplastia endonasal com ou sem a aplicação de EESC, entre agosto de 2012 e junho de 2013. Ao todo, 20 pacientes foram tratados com septoplastia endonasal com aplicação de EESC. O restante do grupo, que rejeitou coleta de cartilagem auricular ou costal para a aplicação de EESC, foi tratado apenas com septoplastia endonasal. Com a aplicação dos questionários Nose (Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation, Avaliação dos Sintomas de Obstrução Nasal) e ROE (Rhinoplasty Outcome Evaluation, Avaliação dos Desfechos da Rinoplastia), as mensurações pré e pós-operatórias com o rinômetro acústico foram obtidas com o objetivo de avaliar o efeito da aplicação de EESC na obstrução nasal. Resultados No grupo controle, as áreas de secção transversal mínima (ASTM1) antes e depois da operação foram 0,44 ± 0,10 cm2 e 0,60 ± 0,11 cm2, respectivamente (p < 0,001). No grupo de estudo, os valores antes e depois da operação para ASTM1 foram 0,45 ± 0,16 cm2 e 0,67 ± 0,16 cm2, respectivamente (p < 0,01). No grupo controle, o valor para os volumes da cavidade nasal (VOL1) foi 1,71 ± 0,21 mL no pré-operatório e 1,94 ± 0,17 mL no pós-operatório (p < 0,001). No grupo de estudo, os VOL1 antes e depois da operação foram 1,72 ± 0,15 mL e 1,97 ± 0,12 mL, respectivamente (p < 0,001). A análise estatística dos valores pós-operatórios para ASTM1 e VOL1 nos grupos de estudo e controle não permitiu a detecção de qualquer diferença intergrupos (p = 0,093 e 0,432, respectivamente). No grupo de estudo e no grupo controle, os ângulos nasolabiais médios foram 78,15 ± 4,26º e 90,70 ± 2,38º, respectivamente (p < 0,001). Conclusão A septoplastia endonasal com aplicação de EESC é um procedimento cirúrgico efetivo, com mínimo percentual de complicações para pacientes que se apresentam com septo nasal curto e com desvio e com fraca sustentação da ponta do nariz.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: avaliar a prevalência, localização e o número dos septos sinusais através de tomografi as computadorizadas de feixe cônico (TCFC), correlacionando com o sexo, a idade e o lado acometido nos pacientes parcialmente ou totalmente desdentados. Material e métodos: cada seio maxilar foi dividido em três regiões: anterior, média e posterior, utilizando-se um gráfico de linhas verticais e horizontais, considerando-se a parede lateral da cavidade nasal com a parede posterior do seio maxilar, e os septos com altura igual ou superior a 2 mm. As imagens foram obtidas por meio do tomógrafo modelo 3D (i-CAT, Kavo, Gendex CB-500, OP 300; voxel = 0,125 mm). Resultados: 150 exames foram selecionados igualmente entre pacientes parcial ou totalmente desdentados. Os septos foram encontrados em 74 pacientes (49,3%), sendo 38 pacientes desdentados parciais (50,06%) e 36 desdentados totais (48%). 46,2% dos exames correspondiam ao sexo feminino, e 53,8% ao masculino. Com relação à localização, 48,65% dos septos foram localizados no terço médio do seio maxilar, e 25,68% nas regiões anterior e posterior. A altura média dos septos foi 7,4 mm nos pacientes desdentados parciais, e 6,18 mm nos desdentados totais. Não houve correlação estatisticamente significante entre a prevalência dos septos sinusais com o sexo, a idade e o lado acometido. Conclusão: os septos foram identificados em todos os terços da cavidade sinusal, mas com dimensões menores em pacientes totalmente desdentados. Desta forma, o plano tridimensional é fundamental para a eleição da melhor técnica cirúrgica e prevenir complicações transoperatórias, como a fenestração da membrana sinusal.


Objective: to evaluate the prevalence, number, and location of sinus septa through cone beam computerized tomograms (CBCT) according to gender, age, and site for partial and totally edentulous patients. Material and methods: each maxillary sinus was divided into three regions (anterior, middle, and posterior) using horizontal and vertical plotted lines, considering the lateral and posterior walls of the maxillary sinuses, and septa with > 2 mm in height. All images were obtained by volumetric 3D (i-CAT, Kavo, Gendex CB-500, OP 300; voxel = 0.125 mm). Results: 150 exams were selected for partial and totally edentulous patients. The septa were found in 74 patients (49.3%), being 38 partial (50.06%) and 36 completely edentulous (48%). From these, 46.2% of exams were from female and 53.8% from male patients. Regarding the site, 48.65% of septa were found at the middle and 25.68% at the anterior and posterior regions. The mean septal height was 7.4 mm for partial and 6.18 mm for totally edentulous. No statistically significant correlations were found between septa prevalence and gender, age, and affected site. Conclusion: the septa were found at all sinus cavity thirds, but with reduced dimensions in totally edentulous patients. In this way, a 3D planning is fundamental to elect the best surgical technique to avoid complications and prevent perioperative problems, such as the sinus membrane fenestration.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: First described by Sheen in 1984, the use of spreader grafts has become increasingly routine. Spreader grafts are indicated for recovery or maintenance of the internal nasal valve and correction of septum deviation with improvement in the anatomical lines of the nasal dorsum. This study avaluated the anatomical lines of the middle nasal third (MNT) of the nasal dorsum after the use of spreader grafts in open rhinoplasty. Methods: A series of 17 patients who underwent rhinoplasty with the inclusion of spreader grafts between March 2013 and November 2014 were analyzed. Spreader grafts were removed from the septum or costal cartilage based on an anthropometric comparison between the medial intercanthal distance and the caudal width of the MNT. Results: Spreader grafts were effective for septum correction without causing excessive enlargement in 12 patients (70.6%). Three patients (17.6%) had undesirable results with local bulging and 2 patients (11.8%) retained their pre-surgery non-standard measures. In the majority of cases (41.2%), there was a local increase of 3 mm, with a mean of increase of 2.67 mm. Conclusion: In the author's point of view, even in cases where there was bulging of the anatomical lines of the nasal dorsum, spreader grafts promoted long-lasting satisfactory results, and prevented open-roof deformities and stigmas inherent to the surgery itself.


Introdução: Descritos por Sheen em 1984, os spreader grafts vêm sendo utilizados em rinoplastias de maneira cada vez mais rotineira. São indicados para recuperação ou manutenção da válvula nasal interna e correção do desvio de septo com aprimoramento das linhas anatômicas do dorso nasal. O estudo analisa o comportamento das linhas do terço médio do dorso nasal após o uso de spreader grafts em rinoplastias abertas. Métodos: Foi avaliada uma série de 17 pacientes, operados entre março de 2013 e novembro de 2014, submetidos à exorrinoplastia com inclusão de spreader grafts, retirados do septo ou cartilagem costal, baseando-se em uma comparação antropométrica entre distância intercantal medial e largura caudal do terço médio nasal. Resultados: Os enxertos expansores se mostraram eficazes na retificação do septo, sem causar alargamento excessivo em 12 pacientes (70,6%), sendo que três pacientes (17,6%) obtiveram resultados indesejáveis com abaulamento do local e dois pacientes (11,8%) mantiveram suas medidas fora do padrão. Na maior parte dos casos (41,2%) houve aumento de 3 milímetros locais, sendo a média padrão de 2,67 mm por procedimento. Conclusão: Constatou-se, no ponto de vista do autor, que os spreader grafts, mesmo nos casos em que houve abaulamento das linhas anatômicas do dorso nasal, promoveram resultados satisfatórios e duradouros, prevenindo deformidades do teto aberto e estigmas inerentes à própria cirurgia.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Este estudo teve com objetivo analisar a prevalência do desvio do septo nasal e da presença de concha nasal média bolhosa e estudar a possível relação entre estes por meio de imagens por tomografia computadorizada de feixes cônicos (TCFC). Material e Métodos: Foram selecionados 118 exames de TCFC de arquivo, previamente adquiridos por indicações diversas para odontologia. Todos os exames foram realizados em tomógrafo i-CAT Next Generation (imaging Sciences International, Hatfield, PA, EUA) com o mesmo protocolo, tendo o FOV (Field of View) abrangendo o terço médio e inferior da face. Todas as imagens foram avaliadas no software especifico do sistema por 01 avaliador devidamente treinado. O desvio de septo nasal, a concha nasal média bolhosa e demais dados foram tabulados e realizada a análise descritiva dos mesmos. O teste de McNemar foi aplicado para se estudar a possível relação entre os mesmos. Resultados: Os resultados indicaram que, nos casos em que não ocorria o desvio de septo nasal, 73,5% destes não apresentaram e 26,5% destes apresentaram a concha média bolhosa. Considerando-se apenas os casos que apresentaram o desvio de septo nasal para um dos lados, a proporção que não apresentou a concha média bolhosa para o mesmo lado foi de 77,1% e a que apresentou também a concha média bolhosa para o mesmo lado foi de 22,9%. Conclusão: Concluiu-se que não houve relação (p = 0,568) entre a presença das duas variáveis analisadas na pesquisa – desvio de septo nasal e presença de concha média bolhosa.


Objective: This study aimed to analyze the prevalence of nasal septum deviation and the presence of middle nasal concha bullosa, as well as to study the possible relationship between these findings by means of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. Material and Methods: One hundred and eighteen CBCT exams were selected from a file previously acquired for diverse reasons in dentistry. All images were obtained with CT i-CAT Next Generation (Imaging Sciences International, Hatfield, PA, USA) with the same protocol, and the field of view (FOV) covered the middle and lower third of the face. All images were evaluated in the specific software system by one trained evaluator. The deviated septum, nasal concha bullosa, and other data were tabulated and a descriptive analysis was performed. The McNemar test was used to study the possible relationship between them. Results: The results indicated that, in cases without nasal septum deviation, 26.5% and 73.5% were associated or not to the presence of middle concha bullosa, respectively. Considering patients with nasal septum deviation on one side only, the proportions of 22.9% and 77.1% were associated or not to middle concha bullosa in the same direction, respectively. Conclusion: Thus, it was concluded there was no relationship (p = 0.568) between nasal septum deviation and the presence of middle concha bullosa.

ABSTRACT

To evaluate the surgical outcome in patients diagnosed as having rhinogenic contact point headaches [RCPH]. Thirty-six patients [aged 17-58 years] with RCPH underwent mini functional endoscopic sinus surgery procedures. Patients' pain complaints were evaluated with a visual analog scale [VAS] both pre- and postoperatively. All patients reported a decrease in the intensity of pain postoperatively. Nineteen patients [52.7%] reported complete relief. The difference between the preoperative [mean 8.62] and postoperative VAS pain scores [mean 2.11] was statistically very significant [p = 0.0000]. No major complications were encountered. The removal of contact points in patients with RCPH is very effective in carefully selected patients

Neste estudo avaliou-se a eficácia da radiografia panorâmica na detecção de desvio do septo nasal. Para tanto, utilizou-se como padrão ouro o exame clínico e imagens tomográficas da face. A amostra foi composta por imagens radiográficas panorâmicas e por imagens de tomografia computadorizada da face de 70 indivíduos. Dentre os indivíduos que compuseram o estudo, 30 eram pacientes que seriam submetidos a tratamento odontológico e possuíam radiografias panorâmicas nas quais foram observadas imagens compatíveis com desvio do septo nasal. Estes pacientes foram avaliados por um otorrinolaringologista e submetidos, segundo o critério da justificação, ao exame de tomografia computadorizada da face. Os outros 40 indivíduos foram selecionados a partir de imagens panorâmicas dos prontuários de pacientes disponíveis no arquivo da Clínica de Estomatologia da FOB-USP e que também haviam realizado tomografia computadorizada da face para elaboração de diagnóstico e plano de tratamento odontológico. Os resultados mostraram que a radiografia panorâmica, segundo a metodologia adotada, foi eficaz na detecção do desvio do septo nasal, com 100% de Especificidade. Além disso, este exame permite a confirmação da ausência deste desvio na maioria dos casos, com 86% de Sensibilidade.


OBJECTIVE: Discern the efficacy of panoramic radiography on nasal septum deviation. Gold standard computerized tomography along with clinical examination was used for comparison. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Sample was composed of 70 subjects from Stomatology files of FOB-USP. Nasal septum deviation was assessed using the panoramic radiographies. Then, computerized tomography was analyzed and the results confronted. RESULTS: Images of nasal septum deviation were observed and confirmed in both exams on 100% of the subjects. However, in those cases with no deviation observed with the panoramic radiographies, its presence was confirmed in 86% after computerized tomography. CONCLUSION: Panoramic radiography was trustable for confirmation of nasal septum presence, with 100% of Specificity. Further, this exam allows the confirmation of the absence of this deviation in the majority of cases, with 86% of Sensibility.

ABSTRACT

Neste trabalho, foi proposto um estudo de exames de tomografia computadorizada helicoidal, dos seios paranasais, da cavidade nasal e das possíveis variações anatômicas desta região. A pneumatização dessas estruturas tem grande importância cirúrgica, uma vez que pode levar à exposição e ao comprometimento de estruturas vasculares e nervosas. O complexo ostiomeatal foi observado e a relação entre seus componentes foi descrita. O estudo foi realizado na forma de análise exploratória de uma amostra de conveniência de 109 tomografias computadorizadas helicoidais. Foram encontradas as seguintes variações: desvio de septo à direita (39,4%), desvio de septo à esquerda (16,5%), septo sinuoso (5,5%) e presença de esporão (9,2%), pneumatização da concha média, sendo a pneumatização da lamela basal bilateralmente (2,8%), da lamela vertical à esquerda (6,4%), da lamela vertical à direita (3,7%), da lamela vertical bilateralmente (5,5%), pneumatização da concha média na sua totalidade, do lado direito (4,6%), do lado esquerdo (7,3%) e bilateralmente (11%), pneumatização da concha superior à direita (1,8%) e bilateralmente (5,5%), curvatura paradoxal da concha nasal média à esquerda (6,4%), à direita (1,8%) e bilateralmente (4,6%), curvatura paradoxal da concha superior esquerda (0,9%) e bilateralmente (2,8%), hipoplasia do seio frontal (15,6%) e do seio maxilar (1,8%), pneumatização do processo pterigóide do lado esquerdo (10,1%), do lado direito (0,9%) e bilateralmente (27,5%), a pneumatização do processo clinóide anterior, do lado esquerdo (3,7%) e bilateralmente (9,2%), processo clinóide posterior do lado esquerdo (0,9%) e 1,8% bilateralmente. Também foi observada a pneumatização do septo nasal (14,7%), do palato ósseo (0,9%) e do processo uncinado (6,4%). Foram observadas as células da crista do nariz (12,%), infra-orbital (11%), supra-orbital (0,9%) e esfeno-etmoidal (11,9%). Das variações anatômicas estudadas , o desvio de septo mostrou-se o mais constante, seguido pelapneumatização do processo pterigóide bilateralmente. O desvio de septo mostrou correlação positiva com a pneumatização da concha média e a tomografia computadorizada permite um estudo com acurácia, da cavidade nasal, dos seios paranasais e das variações morfológicas que possam estar presentes.

ABSTRACT

To compare powered instruments with traditional ones in resecting symptomatic septal spurs. Forty patients with nasal obstruction due to isolated septal spur were included in this study. Surgery was done under local anesthesia with the aid of nasal endoscope. The spur was resected with traditional instruments [osteotome] in half of the patients and with powered instruments [septoplasty burr] in the other half. The operative time was significantly less in the burr group. Neither the feasibility of local anesthesia nor the patients improvement after surgery showed significant difference between the 2 groups. No complications were reported in the burr group versus 2 patients with secondary haemorrhage and one with septal perforation in the traditional group. Powered instruments are as effective as traditional ones in resecting isolated septal spurs with excellent patients tolerability and minimal morbidity

ABSTRACT

Radiological imaging modalities are playing vital role for detecting the causes of headache. Unfortunately these investigations are costly and out of reach for common people Conventional radiology is the investigation of chronic headache with ear, nose and throat problem. Water view is most frequently advise for studying the sinuses nasal septum and bony component and is of great help of patient with chronic Headache. Department of Radiology Dow Medical College. Karachi. Three month prospective study from October 2003-December 2003. Both male and female patients of different age group with complaint of chronic Headache was advised for water view 19 were male while 12 were female. DNS [78%] [Deflected nasal septum] were found to be the main cause of Headache in male and [33%] female shows maxillary sinusitis the main cause of chronic Headache. Conventional radiology is still playing important role for diagnosing the cause of Headache apart from advance imaging modality which is costly and unreachable for common people of developing countries

ABSTRACT

Nasal septal deviation and hypertrophy of the adenoids and palatine tonsils are the two common causes of nasopharyngeal obstruction and resulting mouth breathing in children. It is accepted that chronic mouth breathing influences craniofacial growth and development. The aim of this study was to evaluate the differences of craniofacial morphology in children with two different etiological factors of mouth breathing. In this cross sectional study we studied 47 patients aged 6-10 years with predominant mouth breathing during 2005-2007. After otorhinolaryngologic examination, patients were divided into two groups based on the etiology of nasopharyngeal obstruction: group 1 with adenoid hypertrophy and group 2 with nasal septal deviation. Lateral cephalometric radiographs were obtained to assess craniofacial development. For statistical analysis Mann-Whitney and T-student tests were used. With respect to the inclination of the mandibular and palatal planes, anteroposterior relationship of maxilla and mandible to the cranial base, and indexes of facial height proportions, no significant difference was observed between two groups of children with mouth breathing. Only the gonial and craniocervical angle measurements were significantly larger in children with adenoid hypertrophy [P<0.05]. The present study did not show any significant morphological differences between children with adenoid hypertrophy and those with nasal septal deviation. Mouth breathing seems to have a similar effect on craniofacial morphology irrespective of its etiology. Prospective studies with larger samples including older children are suggested

ABSTRACT

Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, retrospectivo, de serie de casos, con el objetivo de evaluar la adherencia a la Guía de Buenas Prácticas Clínicas en el tratamiento a los pacientes intervenidos quirúrgicamente a causa de una desviación del septo nasal. Se incluyeron los 373 pacientes operados en el servicio de otorrinolaringología del Hospital Universitario Dr Gustavo Aldereguía Lima de Cienfuegos, en el período comprendido entre enero de 2002 y diciembre de 2005. En la evaluación de la adherencia a la guía, se tuvo en cuenta el porcentaje de las respuestas afirmativas y se consideraron, cualitativamente, cinco categorías: excelente (≥ 95 por ciento), notable (90-94,9 por ciento), adecuado (85-89,9 por ciento), suficiente (80-84,9 por ciento) y deficiente (< 80 por ciento). Predominaron los pacientes del sexo masculino en todos los grupos etáreos (241; 64,6 por ciento) y el grupo de 21-30 años de edad aportó el mayor número de casos (120; 32,2 por ciento). No se reflejó el tipo de desviación del septo nasal en 20 (5,4 por ciento) de los expedientes clínicos revisados. La mayoría de los operados (316; 84,7 por ciento) presentaban desviaciones bajas. En la evaluación de la adherencia a la guías predominaron las preguntas evaluadas cualitativamente como notable (4; 50 por ciento). La evaluación de la adherencia a la Guía de Buenas Prácticas Clínicas nos permitió evaluar el desempeño médico-quirúrgico en esta afección e identificar nuestras debilidades y fortalezas(AU)


He/she was carried out a descriptive, retrospective study, of series of cases, with the objective of evaluating the adherence to the Guide of Good Clinical Practices in the treatment to the patients intervened surgically because of a deviation of the nasal septo. The 373 patients were included operated in the service of otorrinolaringología of the University Hospital Dr Gustavo Aldereguía Lima of Cienfuegos, in the period understood between January of 2002 and December of 2005. In the evaluation of the adherence to the guide, one kept in mind the percentage of the affirmative answers and they were considered, qualitatively, five categories: excellent (≥ 95 percent), notable (90-94,9 percent), appropriate (85-89,9 percent), enough (80-84,9 percent) and faulty (<80 percent). the patients of the masculine sex Prevailed in all the groups etáreos (241; 64,6 percent) and the 21-30 year-old group contributed the biggest number of cases (120; 32,2 percent). he/she was not reflected the type of deviation of the nasal septo in 20 (5,4 percent) of the revised clinical files. Most of those operated (316; 84,7 percent) they presented low deviations. In the evaluation of the adherence to the guides the questions evaluated qualitatively as notable prevailed (4; 50 percent). The evaluation of the adherence to the Guide of Good Clinical Practices allowed us to evaluate the doctor-surgical acting in this affection and to identify our weaknesses and strengths(AU)

ABSTRACT

Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, longitudinal y prospectivo para evaluar la evolución posoperatoria de los pacientes intervenidos por desviación del tabique nasal, en los que se utilizó sutura de la mucosa como método hemostático. Se incluyeron los 502 pacientes intervenidos por desviación del tabique nasal, en los que se utilizó sutura de la mucosa y que fueron operados en el período comprendido entre julio de 1999 y julio del 2005, en el Servicio de Otorrinolaringología del Hospital Universitario Dr Gustavo Aldereguía Lima¼ de Cienfuegos. Las variables seleccionadas para el estudio fueron: edad, sexo, criterio para la intervención quirúrgica según localización de la deformidad del tabique nasal, comportamiento de las secreciones serohemáticas posquirúrgicas, síntomas posoperatorios y complicaciones. Predominó el sexo masculino (65,3 por ciento) y el mayor porcentaje de los operados se encontraba entre los 21 y 40 años de edad. Las desviaciones bajas del tabique nasal fueron el criterio quirúrgico más frecuentemente encontrado (88,4 por ciento); fueron escasos los síntomas postoperatorios y sólo el 3,6 por ciento de los pacientes intervenidos presentó complicaciones, entre las cuales el sangrado fue la más frecuente (2,0 por ciento). Consideramos que este proceder es favorable por las múltiples ventajas que ofreció en el orden clinicoquirúrgico, de eficiencia hospitalaria y en términos de comodidad para el paciente(AU)


He/she was carried out a descriptive, longitudinal and prospective study to evaluate the evolution posoperatoria of the patients intervened by deviation of the nasal partition, in those that suture of the mucous one was used as method hemostático. The 502 patients were included intervened by deviation of the nasal partition, in those that suture of the mucous one was used and that they were operated in the period understood between July of 1999 and July of the 2005, in the Service of Otorrinolaringología of the University Hospital Dr Gustavo Aldereguía Lima¼ of Cienfuegos. The variables selected for the study were: age, sex, approach for the surgical intervention according to localization of the deformity of the nasal partition, behavior of the secretions serohemáticas posquirúrgicas, symptoms posoperatorios and complications. The masculine sex prevailed (65,3 percent) and the biggest percentage of those operated was between the 21 and 40 years of age. The low deviations of the nasal partition were the frequently most opposing surgical approach (88,4 percent); they were scarce the postoperative symptoms and 3,6 percent of the intervened patients only presented complications, among which the one bled was the most frequent (2,0 percent). we Consider that this to proceed is favorable for the multiple advantages that he/she offered in the order clinicoquirúrgico, of hospital efficiency and in terms of comfort for the patient(AU)

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Mostrar que alterações estruturais da cavidade nasal, como desvio do septo do nariz e a hipertrofia dos cornetos inferiores, são altamente incidentes em pacientes com síndrome da apnéia e hipopnéia do sono e devem ser abordados associados aos procedimentos específicos da síndrome. FORMA DE ESTUDO: Clínico retrospectivo. CASUíSTICA E MÉTODO: Realizamos um estudo retrospectivo em 200 pacientes, 196 homens e 4 mulheres, atendidos no ambulatório de otorrinolaringologia do Hospital Prof. Edmundo Vasconcelos e Unidade Paulista de Otorrinolaringologia, todos com controle polissonográfico, exame físico otorrinolaringológico, endoscópico e o tratamento cirúrgico com procedimentos nasais e faríngeos. RESULTADOS: Todos tiveram procedimento cirúrgico faríngeo: uvulopalatofaringoplastia ou uvulopalatoplastia, e no nariz: 176 septoplastias com turbinectomia parcial (88 por cento) e 24 turbinectomias isoladas (12 por cento), com resultados satisfatórios. CONCLUSÃO: Podemos concluir que as alterações estruturais da cavidade nasal têm alta incidência nos pacientes com SAHOS.

ABSTRACT

The twisted nose represents a complex deformity that involves multiple anatomic components. A deviated nose often produces a cosmetic and functional deformity. Experienced surgeons uniformly regard the twisted as the most challenging of all septorhinoplasty procedures, and sometimes complete straightening of such a Nose may not be possible. The septum is the key point of deformities in most twist noses. A well done septoplasty with any correction if significant Septal deviations and deformities is important to attain satisfactory aesthetic and functional results. An open rhinoplastic approach with better visual field for using different sutures and grafts is essential for successful treatment
