    Objective   To evaluate the effect of nasal endoscopic sinus surgery and balloon catheter dilation technology in combination with fibrolaryngoscopy in treating sinus cyst. Methods   The clinical data of 14 cases (19 maxillary sinuses, 3 frontal sinuses) using the balloon catheter dilation technology in combination with fibrolaryngoscopy (the balloon group) and 16 cases (23 maxillary sinuses, 8 frontal sinuses) using conventional nasal endoscopic sinus surgery (the conventional group) were retrospectively analyzed. Visual analog scale (VAS) was used to record operative difficulty grade and operation time. Nasal endoscopy, coronal sinus CT scanning, Lund-Kennedy endoscopy and Lund-Mackay CT scan staging scores were used to evaluate the post-operative prognosis. Results   The balloon group was longer in operative time than the conventional group (P<0.001). During follow-up periods of  8 and 24 weeks after the operation, the sinus ostia were patency, and the nasal cavities recovered well. Conclusion   In the sinus cyst operation, the balloon group and the conventional group  equally  achieve good curative effects. In the balloon group, the nasal cavity and sinus structures can be preserved with  minimal invasion, but the operation is more difficult and longer than those in the conventional group, due to the fibrolaryngoscope.

    Nitric oxide (NO) is synthesized from arginine by the enzyme family NO synthases. NO is an endogenous modulator of airway function. NO from the nose can constitute a nasal defensive barrier, and keep the sinuses relatively sterile. The most commonly clinical detection of nasal nitricc oxide (nNO) is to directly collect NO with a nasal plug probe placed in the anterior nostril. nNO has been used for the screening diagnosis of cystic fibrosis and primary ciliary dyskinesia. However, nNO is related to many influences such as the plugged extent of the sinus. Dynamic monitoring nNO before and after treatment, and combination with frictional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO)examination to early detect eosinophilic inflmmation in the upper and lower airways are more clinically valuable.

    Objective To summarize the surgical experience of otitis media, as well as cholesteatoma of the middle ear, in patients with one hearing ear only. Methods A total of 13 patients with otitis media underwent operation between May 2000 and Jan 2013. The surgical and follow-up data were retrospectively collected and compared with those of 15 patients(as pre-group )who received surgical treatment before 2000. Results All patients achieved dry ear after follow-up(ranged from 6 months to 156 months, averaged follow-up was 84.55±56.84 months). The A-B GAP and air conduction(AC)were dropped after treatment compared with those before operation(P<0.01). The overall effective rate of operation was 92.31 %( 12/13). In those with successful operation, 4 case with GAP<10 dB HL, 7 cases with GAP between 11 and 20 dB HL, there was no significant difference in bone conduction(BC)before and after treatment(P>0.05). The proportion of patients with GAP difference over 20 dB HL and 30 dB HL were 76.92%(10/13)and 30.77%(4/13), which was significant higher than those of 40.00%(6/15)and 13.33%(2/15)in pre-group. Conclusion This study shows a more safe and effective outcome in surgical treatment otitis media in patients with one hearing ear only.

    Objective To investigate preservation and reconstruction of larynx function in surgical treatment of pyriform sinus carcinoma. Methods A retrospective analysis of 102 cases of pyriform cancer treated in June 2004 to October 2015 underwent surgeries with laryngeal functions preserved was carried out. There were 9 cases of stage Ⅰ, 11 cases of stage Ⅱ, 47 cases of stage Ⅲ and 35 stage Ⅳ, according to the 2002 UICC staging. Pharyngeal lateral wall approach, hyoid region approach and paraglottic space approach were chosen respectively to remove the tumor as per preoperative evaluation, followed by repairing of surgical defects and reconstruction of laryngeal and pharyngeal functions. 93 cases of postoperative radiotherapy were implemented. Results All patients recovered well after surgery except 1 patient with pharyngeal fistula and infection. All repairing materials of different methods survived and the average time of postoperative oral intake was 12.47 days. All patients retained good laryngeal functions with 95 decannulations and the 3-year and 5-year survival rates were 59.3% and 40.7% respectively. Conclusion Comprehensive preoperative investigations as laryngoscopy and radiological assessment may give good suggestions in selecting appropriate surgical approaches; good surgical approach may help provide good feasibility and visibility, and ensure complete removal of the tumors with safety margins; through the epiglottis flipping and/or thyroid reinforcement repairing methods, the incidence of accidental swallowing and pharyngeal fistula can be reduced; pyriform sinus carcinoma are found mostly in advanced stages, single treatment is often ineffective in controlling the lesion, and radiotherapy is necessary as a comprehensive treatment to improve the local control rate and survival rate. Appropriate surgical approaches and repairing methods can help surgeons to completely remove the tumor, and preserve or rebuild laryngeal and pharyngeal functions in managing chosen patients with pyriform sinus cancer.

    Objective To outline and analyze the clinical features and treatment option of cervical osteomyelitis secondary to necrotizing otitis externa. Methods We performed a retrospective review, along with literature review, of a case of C2-C6 osteomyelitis secondary to a necrotizing otitis externa in a diabetic patient, in order to outline its clinical manifestation, diagnosis, treatment option and prognosis. Results A total of five relevant studies published in Chinese and English from 2005 to 2022 were reviewed, and four cases(including the case presented in this study)were analyzed. The four cases involved three men and one woman(age range: 54-72 years). Only one patient had a history of head and neck radiotherapy, the remaining three were known diabetic patients. The lesions were extensive, involving two to five vertebral bodies. The causative pathogens isolated were all bacteria; however, the strains varied among the cases. After a systematic treatment, three patients(75%)succumbed to the disease as a result of bacterial resistance, poor compliance to medications, and severe comorbidity. Conclusion The lesions of necrotizing otitis externa can extend from the skull base to the cervical vertebrae, causing cervical osteomyelitis: a life-threatening condition that requires an aggressive treatment.

Methods Between July 2012 and December 2014, we performed initial treatment on 91 cases of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma with the nimotuzumab(300 mg/m2 day 1)combined with nedaplatin(90 mg/m2 day 1)and 5-FU(750 mg/m2 day1-5)as neo-adjuvant chemotherapy, with one cycle for 3 weeks. Two cycles were followed by surgery and radiation therapy. The primary endpoint was tumor response rate, pathological complete response rate, the rate of laryngeal preservation and chemotherapy related toxicity. Results The response rate of tumor was 86.8%(79/91)after two cycles of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy. Fifty-two patients(57.1%)got downstage, with T downstage in 47(51.6%)cases and N downstage in 20(22.0%)cases. Eighty-eight patients got surgery after the neo-adjuvant chemotherapy, of which 68 patients(77.3%)preserved laryngeal function. The pathological complete response was 8.8%(8/91)of the total. The toxicity was mild and manageable. There were 29 cases of neutropenia(31.9%), 26 cases of nausea/vomiting(28.6%). Conclusion Nimotuzumab plus nedaplatin and 5-FU regimen as neo-adjuvant chemotherapy was highly effective for improving the hypopharyngeal carcinoma patients’ tumor response rate and preserving their organ function, while the toxicities were well tolerable.

Methods   C57BL/6J mice were divided randomly into four groups:group A (5μL normal saline injected into the round window niche), group B (5μLcisplatin (1mg/mL) injected into the round window niche), group C (10μL cisplatin (1mg/mL) injected daily into middle ear cavity for 5 days), and group D ( cisplatin (6mg/kg) injected daily into the abdominal cavity for 5 days). 10 dB increase or above in the reaction threshold of  whole octave band auditory brainstem response (ABR) was to define the decline of the hearing capacity. The stereocilia and cuticular plate of hair cells stained with fluorescent phalloidin were observed. Results   In group A,C and D, the whole octave band ABR reaction thresholds showed no difference before and after the administration (P>0.05). However, the reaction threshold were all elevated 48h after the administration in B group (P<0.05). Meanwhile, in group B, outer hair cell (OHC) lesions were more severe than those of inner hair cell (IHC), and the hair cells lesions aggravated gradually from the base to apex of chochlea. Conclusion   The administration of cisplatin through the window niche is the effective method to establish sensorineural deafness model in C57 mice.

    Objective

    To investigate the efficacy of endoscopic ligation of the sphenopalatine artery in elderly patients with intractable epistaxis.

    Methods

    The study included 41 elderly patients with intractable epistaxis. All patients were randomly assigned to two groups, namely, the treatment group (21 patients undergoing an endoscopic ligation of the sphenopalatine artery) and the control group (20 patients undergoing an endoscopic nasal packing). During the hospitalization and the 6-month follow-up, the epistaxis relapse rate, the postoperative pain, a satisfaction survey, the length of the hospital stay, and complications were evaluated.

    Results

    A significantly higher cure rate was obtained in the treatment group compared with the control group (81.0% vs. 50%, P<0.05). The average hospitalization duration of the treatment group was significantly shorter than that of the control group (6.5 days vs. 10.7 days, P<0.05). The treatment group was remarkably superior to the control group in both the degree of postoperative pain and satisfaction (both P<0.001). No severe complications were observed in any patient.

    Conclusion

    For elderly patients with intractable epistaxis, endoscopic ligation of the sphenopalatine artery should be considered as a first-line treatment due to its advantages such as fast and effective action, short hospital stay, little postoperative pain, and few complications.

    Objective This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of radiofrequency coblation(RFC)in the treatment of early glottic carcinoma(Tis-T1b). Methods A total of 58 patients with early glottic carcinoma(Tis-T1b)at People's Hospital were enrolled from October 2018 to April 2020. All patients were men. According to the surgical method, 31 and 27 patients were included in the RFC and CO2 laser groups, respectively. The average patient age was 52.1±8.7 and 55.6±10.3 years in the RFC and CO2 laser groups, respectively. In the RFC group, the tumor-node-metastasis(TNM)stage was Tis, T1a, and T1b in 6, 23, and 2 patients, respectively, while in the CO2 laser surgery group, the TNM stage was Tis, T1a, and T1b in 3, 22, and 2 patients, respectively. All patients were followed up for 6-18 months, and the operation time, postoperative pain score, and cough score were recorded. All patients underwent reassessment at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery using an electronic laryngoscope. Results The operation time was shorter in the RFC group than in CO2 laser group(11.81 vs. 16.77 min, P<0.001). There were no significant differences in the length of hospital stay, blood loss, pain score, cough score, anterior conglutination rate, and granulomatous hyperplasia between the groups(P=0.676,0.390,0.483,0.483,0.094,0.788). All patients were followed up in the outpatient department. No deaths occurred during the follow-up period. Four patients developed local recurrence, including 2 patients(1 patient with T1b involving anterior commissure and 1 patient with T1a)in the RFC group and 2 patients(2 patients with T1b involving anterior commissure)in the CO2 laser group. Both patients in the RFC group underwent repeat plasma surgery and 1 patient in the CO2 laser group underwent CO2 laser extended resection. In one patient with unilateral cervical lymph node metastasis, the surgery was converted to open surgery. There was no significant difference in the local recurrence rate between the groups(P=0.276). The acoustic parameters of Jitter, Shimer, and NHR recovered gradually in all patients at different time points postoperatively(P<0.05), and the acoustic parameters of the RFC group were better than those of the CO2 laser group(P=0.000,0.001,0.000). Conclusion Radiofrequency ablation with the plasma spot excitation technique is safe and effective for the treatment of early glottic carcinoma(Tis-T1b). It has the advantages of short operation time, small mucosal injury, and good preservation of voice function. However, the long-term tumor control rate and survival rate need to be further observed.

    Objective To explore the levels of creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and uric acid (UA) in patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) complicated with hypertension. Methods A total of 140 OSAHS cases were divided into simple OSAHS group (n=67) and OSAHS complicated with hypertension group (n=23, OSAHS+HT group), 30 patients with simple hypertension were included into the hypertension group, and 20 healthy people served as controls. The levels of CK, CK-MB, LDH and UA of the 4 groups were measured. The rates of abnormal cardiac structure and function in OSAHS group and OSAHS+HT group were analyzed. Results Compared with the control group, the levels of CK, CK-MB, LDH and UA in the other 3 groups were higher (P<0.05, or P<0.01). Compared with simple OSAHS group, the levels of CK, LDH and UA in OSAHS+HT group were higher (P<0.05), but the level of CK-MB had no significant difference (P>0.05). The incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, ventricular septal thickening, left atrial enlargement, aortic valve regurgitation and E/A<1 was higher in OSAHS+HT group than in OSAHS group (P<0.05, or P<0.01). The levels of serum CK, LDH and UA in OSAHS patients were positively correlated with AHI, but negatively correlated with SpO2. There was no significant correlation between CK-MB and AHI, and SpO2. Conclusion Severe OSAHS patients have increased serum myocardial enzymes and uric acid level. For OSAHS patients complicatedwith hypertension, uric acid and myocardial enzymes will increase more significantly. Patients with severe OSAHS may have abnormal cardiac structure and function, and hypertension may increase this probability. UA, CK and LDH are associated with the severity of OSAHS and degree of hypoxia.

    Objective To compare the corneal, internal, and ocular high order aberrations(HOAs)in pseudophakia of spherical intraocular lens(IOL)with aspheric IOL implantation, and to provide evidence for individual selection of aspheric IOL. Methods A prospective, non-randomized, controlled clinical study was conducted on 112 age-matched cataract patients(160 eyes). Patients were divided into four groups, and implanted with AMO Sensor AR40 IOL(group AR40, 40 eyes of 26 patients), AMO Tecnis ZA9003 IOL(group ZA9003, 40 eyes of 31 patients), Bausch & Lomb SofPort AO IOL(group AO, 40 eyes of 28 patients), or Alcon SN60WF IQ IOL(group IQ, 40 eyes of 27 patients). The corneal, internal, and ocular HOAs including total HOA(tHOA), spherical aberration(SA), coma, and trefoil were measured at three months postoperatively with a pupil diameter(PD)of 4 mm or 6 mm. Result There were no statistically significant differences in postoperative uncorrected visual acuity and best corrected visual acuity, and in postoperative corneal tHOA, SA, coma, and trefoil at 4 mm or 6 mm PD among the four groups. At 4 mm PD, there were significant differences in internal SA and coma but no differences in tHOA and trefoil; at 6 mm PD, there were significant differences in internal tHOA, SA, and coma but no differences in trefoil. In addition, there were significant differences in ocular tHOA and SA but no differences in coma and trefoil at 4 mm or 6 mm PD among the four groups. Conclusion Phacoemulsification of the cataract and implantation of an aspheric IOL can reduce corneal SA, resulting in enhanced visual quality. For aspheric IOLs with other SAs, the predictability of corneal SA is exact, which provides a clinical basis for personalized implantation of aspheric IOLs.

    Objective To investigate the surgical methods and clinical effects of tonsil-sparing styloid process truncation assisted by endoscopy via an oral approach. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 36 patients with styloid process syndrome(65 sides), the data included the main complaints, course of disease, misdiagnosis, length of the styloid process, and the degree of tonsil enlargement. Results Among the 36 patients, 7 had a unilateral styloid process, 29 had bilateral styloid processes, and 65 had styloid processes. The main complaints were pharyngeal foreign body sensation in 27, neck and shoulder pain or discomfort in 12, sore throat and pain associated with swallowing in 11, dry throat and cough in 7, facial pain in 1, and ear pain in 3 patients. The duration of illness ranged from 20 days to 3 years, with an average of 10 months. Of the misdiagnoses, twenty were pharyngitis, four were gastroesophageal reflux, two were thyroid disease, one was cervical spondylosis, and one was upper respiratory tract infection. The misdiagnosis ratio was 77.8%. Among the 36 patients, 14 had no tonsil hypertrophy, 20 had first-degree enlargement, and 2 had second-degree enlargement. None of the patients had a history of chronic tonsillitis or a tonsil mass. The average length of the preoperative styloid process is(4.38±0.78)cm; the longest is 7.89cm. The average length of the truncated styloid process is(2.09±0.93)cm. The duration of surgery was(67.08±28.4)min, and the blood loss during surgery was(8.42±5.58)mL. In six patients, seven side styloid processes were fractured externally due to the deep position or difficulty of separation. After postoperative follow-up for more than 3 months, 27 cases had resolved symptoms, 4 cases had symptom relief, 4 cases had no change in symptoms. One case was lost to follow-up. Conclusion Tonsil-sparing styloidectomy assisted by the endoscopic transoral approach preserves normal tonsils, with less surgical trauma, less pain, faster recovery, less bleeding, and good surgical results. It is effective for treating styloid process syndrome, which is a safe and minimally invasive surgical method.

    Objective Congenital pyriform sinus fistula(CPSF)is a rare parotid source disease. It is easily misdiagnosed as a simple abscess in the neck in clinical practice. In the past, neck fistulectomy was usually the treatment of choice; however, it was traumatic, and the fistula could not be eliminated completely, thus leading to recurrence. Our study aimed to investigate congenital pyriform sinus fistula and evaluate the therapeutic effect of radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of congenital pyriform sinus fistula. Methods The data of 216 patients with congenital pyriform sinus fistula treated by radiofrequency ablation between March 2013 and May 2019 were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Results Among the 216 patients, the ratio of males to females was approximately 1.18∶1, and 90.7% of the cases were left-sided, 8.3% were right-sided, and only 1.0% were bilateral. The age range of the patients was 23-66 years. Eight patients were lost to follow-up, with an average follow-up of 15 months. Among 208 patients after coblation, 17 cases(8.2%)had postoperative hoarseness, 12 cases(5.8%)had recurrence, and there was no infection, irritating cough, or esophageal injury. Conclusion Radiofrequency ablation is the first choice for the treatment of congenital pyriform sinus fistula.

    Journal of Otolaryngology and Ophthalmology of Shandong University    2023, 37 (2): 151-158.   DOI: 10.6040/j.issn.1673-3770.0.2021.536

    Keratoconus(KC)is a progressive corneal dilation disease, which aggravates myopia and astigmatism. The pathophysiological mechanism of KC remains vague. The role of genetic and inflammatory factors on KC has been investigated by previous studies. Detectable levels of inflammatory factors and proteases were found in the tears of patients with KC. Interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, and matrix metalloproteinase-9 were found in the tears of patients with KC. A higher level was positively correlated with the clinical course of KC. In addition, some external factors can indirectly lead to the aggravation of inflammation through certain behaviors, thus accelerating the occurrence and development of KC, such as eye rubbing, allergic reaction, etc. Pathological eye rubbing will change the corneal morphology, change the corneal environment, and cause indirect corneal injury. Immunoglobulin E in allergic reaction is the potential inflammatory molecule of KC. This paper aimed to review previous studies on inflammatory factors and the pathways leading to KC.
