abstract = {Background: Providing Anesthesia for rigid Bronchoscopy is a challenge to the Anesthetist and ENT surgeon as they both compete for the same Airway. Rigid Bronchoscopy is an interventional procedure requiring General anesthesia of course with different strategies. The range of complications includes both mechanical and systemic types, depending on the technique of anesthesia used. Aim of the study: To assess the Anesthetic strategies used for Rigid Bronchoscopy and their role in peri-interventional morbidity. Methods: 68 patients of rigid Bronchoscopy were included and divided into two groups. Group A included patients in whom Total Intravenous Anesthetics were used (TIVA group) and group B where patients were administered Gaseous anesthetics (Volatile group). In group A, 46 patients were included and in group B 22 patients were included. In comparison, group A patients (TIVA group) consisted of more Hypertensive patients than the group B. Foreign body removal was performed under inhalation anesthesia in 21/68 (30.88%) patients (TIVA group- 11 and 10

Volatile group), Biopsy of Bronchogenic carcinoma was done in 11/68 (16.17%) patients (TIVA group- 06 and 05 Volatile group) and diagnostic Bronchoscopy was done in 14/68 (20.58%) of the patients (TIVA group- 06 and 08 Volatile group) to investigate the cause of hemoptysis. Both the groups of patients received similar ventilation irrespective of the indication for Bronchoscopy. Results: The hemodynamic showed the pre-operative and post-operative arterial blood gas, pulse oximetry and pulmonary function test data. The baseline values of these parameters were similar in the both groups. Post-operative estimation of arterial blood gas (7.42 ± 0.42 vs. 7.35 ± 0.17, P = 0.021) showed a lower PH in the patients who received volatile anesthesia than the TIVA group. But the volatile group patients were found to have a greater forced vital capacity (Volatile: 2.98 ±0.60 vs. TIVA: 2.19 ± 0.62, P = 0.034) than the TIVA group after rigid Bronchoscopy. The Volatile group patients showed greater incidence of systemic complications like Hypertension postoperatively, 14.25% in TIVA group than in Volatile group: 15.25%. Conclusion: The present study concluded that the two methods of anesthesia and ventilation used for rigid Bronchoscopy produced similar results and none of the both have shown to be superior over the other. Propofol and remifentanil combination used in TIVA group was better and appeared to be popular as it had attenuated haemodynamic response during the procedure. Both the groups showed improvement in spirometry mea- surements. The incidence of hypoxia or hypercapnia was also similar.},

abstract = {Ovarian cysts are common, and are usually less than 4cm. A giant cyst in one which is more than 10cm. Giant cystadenocarcinomas of the ovary are less frequently described. Most of the ovarian carcinomas are of serous type and only 3-4% are of mucinous type. Ovarian mucinous tumors consist of benign, borderline, and carcinomatous tumors. Giant cysts require resection because of compressive symptoms and/or risk of malignancy and their management invariably requires laparotomy to prevent perforation and spillage of the cyst uid into peritoneal cavity. Here, we present a case of an 18 year old female with rapidly progressing abdominal distension and vague abdominal pain. Along with clinical evaluation and lab investigations she was subjected to imaging which included Ultrasonography and MR Imaging. She underwent exploratory laparotomy for excision of the cystic mass. On histopathological examination, mass was found to be mucinous cystadenocarcinoma with low malignant potential. The main aim of this report is to draw attention to huge ovarian epithelial cysts with unsuspected presentation contributing to any underdiagnosis, misdiagnosis, and mismanagement that might occur.},

abstract = {BACKGROUND: Epiphora is a common annoying symptom, embarrassing the patient both socially and functionally and may even endanger the eye. Chronic Dacryocystitis is the most common cause of epiphora which arises from nasolacrimal duct occlusion. Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is the procedure of choice in the management of Dacryocystitis. We wanted to study the final outcome following endonasal DCR for chronic dacryocystitis with or without using silicon stent, evaluate the causes of persistence of epiphora in patients with or without the use of lacrimal stents and identify the methods of overcoming them postoperatively. METHODS

A case control study to compare the results of Endonasal DCR with and without stent was conducted among 96 patients of both genders aged above 20 years with symptoms and signs suggestive of nasolacrimal duct blockage. All the cases and controls were randomly selected and included as group A and group B. RESULTS

96 patients were included in this study and they were divided into two groups (Group A and Group B) with 48 patients in each group. More than 75 % of the patients were between 31 and 60 years of age with a mean age of 44.36 ± 3.15 years. In Group B, 72.91 % of the cases were between 31 and 60 years of age with a mean age of 45.50 ± 4.10 years. There was no statistically significant difference in both groups. In group A (DCR with stent) success rate or relief of symptoms was 96 % whereas in group B (DCR without stent) success rate or

symptomatic relief was 80 %. CONCLUSIONS: Endoscopic endonasal DCR with stent is a safe and minimally invasive procedure and is an effective treatment for patients who have failed primary endoscopic DCR

without stent and also in cases of mucocele and pyocele of the sac. },

abstract = {A cross section study on diagnostic role of ultrasonography (USG) in neck swellings was done in the department of Otorhinolaryngology of this institution. The study of ultrasonographic features of various neck

swellings was done in fifty patients. The mean age of subjects was 33.04 years with a range from 1 year to 79 years and the maximum number of cases were in the age group of 31-39 years. Male and female incidence was 24% and 76% respectively. Out of 50 patients who underwent USG examination 76% had thyroid swelling. Various ultrasonographic features like echogenicity, echotextures were noted. 68% of patients had mass with solid consistency on USG while 32% had cystic nature. 72% of patients were recorded with hypoechogenic

echotexture on USG. Benign nature of swelling was diagnosed on 78% of patients. 12% of neck swelling patients had features predictive of malignancy on USG. Clinical diagnosis and USG diagnosis was correlated and found to have a diagnostic accuracy of 86%. Thyroid swellings (38)100% the diagnostic value of USG was 86% for benign lesions and 14% in malignant lesions. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) showed 76% benign lesions and 24% malignant thyroid swellings. Patients presenting with a neck mass whether benign or malignant need a methodical approach for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. USG helps in differentiating the true nature of swelling whether as solid or cystic. In the present study USG of thyroid clearly provides conformity on benign pathology and prediction regarding malignant nature. USG provides information regarding benign or malignant nature of lymph nodes. From the present study it can be concluded that for proper diagnosis of thyroid lesion, FNAC is the main diagnostic modality along with ultrasonography.},

abstract = {Background: Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is not an uncommon condition encountered in ENT practice. Once developed in patients, it causes severe handicap that affects their job, family life, and social life. Therefore, once diagnosed the otologists should treat the disorder effectively to improve and/or even stabilize hearing.

Aim: To evaluate the role of intratympanic corticosteroids for the treatment of different types of SNHL. Materials and Methods: A total of 68 patients with immune-mediated SNHL were subjected to intratympanic steroid injections under local anesthesia. Pre- and post-injection Audiological evaluation; pure tone average (PTA) was done to know the results. Observations and Results: Hearing improvement with improved PTA of 26.20 dB by pure tone audiometry observed in 49.42% of the patients. Improved speech discrimination scores of 37.60% in 58.4% of patients. Conclusion: In SNHL of immune-mediated pathogenesis intratympanic steroid injection remains a safe and effective tool in the armamentarium of an ENT surgeon. },

Majority of the causes of such neuronal activities are unknown. Auditory evaluation is done in all patients with tinnitus to rule out organic brain diseases which may also cause tinnitus. Brain stem evoked response audiometry (BERA) is one such test in the armamentarium of audiological evaluation laboratory. Aim: The aim of the study is to study the results of BERA performed in all patients undergoing audiological evaluation for tinnitus. Materials and Methods: Patients were divided into two groups; 78 patients with tinnitus and 34 normal individuals as control group. Total audiological evaluation was done in individuals of both groups. Absolute latencies of Wave I, III, and V, inter peak latencies (IPLs) as well as the interaural latency difference of Wave V (ILD-V) was recorded. Observations and Results: There was no statistical significant difference between both groups. Few tinnitus patients showed abnormal prolonged absolute latencies, IPLs, and increased ILD-V. There was some asymmetry in results between different study subgroups. Conclusions: BERA results can variable in tinnitus patients. Few patients have normal results while others showed prolonged

absolute or IPLs or increased ILD-V difference. },

The present hospital based study assessed the prevalence, related clinical features and risk factors of OSA in the South Indian population. One ninety two untreated OSA patients and sixty two control subjects were included in this study. Each subject underwent a fully attended polysomnogram (PSG), spirometric analysis, modified OSA questionnaires and Mallampati score were obtained in study population. The OSA patients were divided into three subgroups: mild (29%), moderate (15%) and severe (56%) and the mean±SD of Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) was 11.4±3, 24.8±5.1 and 36.6±7.4 respectively. Higher Mallampati score was observed in patients with severe OSA than in moderate and mild OSA patients. An apparent decrease in FVC and FEV1 was observed in OSA group with a positive correlation with increase in AHI. A significant decrease in FVC, FEV1 and FEV1/FVC was observed with increase in Body Mass Index (BMI), reflecting the increased restrictive pattern in the OSA groups. Sleep onset latency was increased to 18.6±13.2 than 8.8±3.2 with a sleep efficiency of 74.2±4.8 and 90.2% in OSA group and controls respectively. The apnea index, hypopnea index and microarousals were much higher in the OSA groups than in controls. Statistically significant differences were perceived in the fasting blood glucose levels, triglyceride, LDL, HDL and total cholesterol levels between the OSA group and controls. This study adds evidence for a link between the clinical features, epidemiology and risk factors of OSA.},

This constitutes 33% of cases being diagnosed to be suffering from TMD out of 452 cases reporting for otalgia. Pain due to TMD does not arise from temperomandibular joint (TMJ) for the disc and articular surface of TMJ lack innervations. The causes of TMD giving rise to otalgia are varied and complex. The contributory factors can be local, less commonly due to systemic causes such as rheumatoid arthritis or gout, but most commonly due to psychosomatic disorder for psychological stress plays a major role in causation of TMD.},
