Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University, Kaifeng 475001, Henan, ChinaAbstract:Objective

To explore the genesis, clinical diagnosis, treatment, and prevention mechanisms of the formation of stones within the nasal cavity and sinus as well as measures toreduce the rate of clinical misdiagnosis. MethodsA comprehensive analysis was conducted on six patients with nasal and sinus calculi who visited the hospital between April 2012 and November 2017. The etiology, pathology, clinical diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and complication management of the disease were summarized for each patient. ResultFive patients underwent surgery for the removal of stones from the nasal cavity and sinus under general anesthesia. Nasal endoscopy was also performed for the assessment of the related sinus passages. One patient recovered upon nasal irrigation and anti-inflammation treatment. All the patients were followed up for six months and the mucosal layer within the operation area that was epithelialized, recovered well. The symptoms disappeared without any additional complications. ConclusionNasal endoscopy in combination with the assessment of clinical manifestation and imaging are conducive to the diagnosis of the disease. Together, these could develop into an effective treatment regimen for nasal cavity and sinusoidal lithiasis.

[1] ObjectiveTo discuss the early diagnosis and multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment of neovascular glaucoma in ocular ischemic syndrome. MethodsThe medical records of a 54-year-old male patient with cerebral infarction who presented with right-eye vision loss that had persisted for a week were reviewed. After slit-lamp examination and fluorescence angiography, he was diagnosed with ocular ischemic syndrome(OIS)complicated by neovascular glaucoma in the right eye and treated with intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs and panretinal photocoagulation. ResultsAfter three months of treatment, the right-eye iris neovascularization subsided, and the intraocular pressure was controlled within normal limits. ConclusionOcular ischemia is often missed or misdiagnosed by ophthalmologists, neurologists, cardiologists, and vascular surgeons due to its insidious onset and complex clinical manifestations. Therefore, the establishment of multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment can improve the prognosis of OIS patients..
