RESUMEN

Introduction: Fat tympanoplasty is repair of small dry tympanic membrane perforations using fat as graft material. It is a simple office procedure with minimal morbidity and manipulation of the middle ear. Materials and Methods: The present study was a prospective review of 60 patients who underwent fat tympanoplasty over the period of 15 months. In all the patients fat was harvested from ear lobule. Results: Patients were kept on follow up for 3 months and evaluated for graft uptake and hearing gain. 86.66% closure rate of tympanic membrane defect was achieved. Postoperative air conduction was 29.6 ± 5.3 while air bone gap was 13.2 ± 6.1. Conclusion: The study concludes that fat plug myringoplasty is a simple, quick, less invasive method to repair small tympanic membrane defects.

RESUMEN

Introduction: Sarcoidosis is an idiopathic systemic granulomatous disorder that can affect multiple organs, including rare extrapulmonary sites like the premaxilla. This case report presents a rare occurrence of premaxillary sarcoidosis, a condition scarcely reported in medical literature. Case Report: The patient, a 62-year-old male, presented with a progressively enlarging painless swelling on the right cheek over a three-year period. Despite multiple Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) examinations yielding no conclusive diagnosis, a contrast-enhanced computed tomographic (CT) scan revealed an ill-defined lesion in the premaxillary soft tissue. Biopsy and subsequent excision procedures confirmed the presence of non-caseating granulomas with asteroid bodies, indicative of sarcoidosis. With no systemic involvement and complete excision of the disease, further treatment was not necessary. Conclusion: This case highlights the challenges in diagnosing premaxillary (Extrapulmonary Sarcoidosis) sarcoidosis due to its rarity and resemblance to other dental and maxillofacial conditions and granulomatous lesions. Accurate diagnosis requires a high index of suspicion, multidisciplinary approach, involving clinical assessment, histopathological analysis, and imaging modalities. By deepening our understanding of these uncommon presentations, this report aims to enhance clinical awareness and contribute to improved patient outcomes.

RESUMEN

Laryngocele is an abnormal cystic dilatation of the saccule of the larynx. It communicates with the laryngeal lumen and contains air. Laryngocele can be classified as internal (within the larynx), external (outside the larynx) and mixed (both). It is a rare entity. Hereby, we are reporting a case of laryngocele, which presented to us with a diagnostic quandary. After confirming the diagnosis by radiology, patient was operated upon by external approach. In the following article, we also discuss the establishment of the diagnosis and review different surgical modalities for the management of various types of laryngocele.
