Role Of Imaging In Rhinology, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Role Of Imaging In Rhinology, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
This E book discusses the role of imaging in rhinology. Since this book has been authored by an otolaryngologist it goes without saying that a surgeon's perspective will be evident throughout the book. It contains about 250 CT scan images with succinct description.
Cavernous Hemangioma Uvula An Interesting Case Report And Review Of Literature, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Cavernous Hemangioma Uvula An Interesting Case Report And Review Of Literature, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Elongated uvula is mostly asymptomatic. In rare instances it may be come symptomatic. This article discusses a patient who presented with intractable cough due to cavernous hemangioma involving uvula. Uvula in this patient was found to be in contact with the posterior portion of the tongue. This case is being presented for its rarity.
Odontogenic Keratocyst Mandible An Interesting Case Report And Literature Review, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan, Geetha Ramamoorthy
Odontogenic Keratocyst Mandible An Interesting Case Report And Literature Review, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan, Geetha Ramamoorthy
Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
The term odontogenic keratocyst was first described by Philipsen in 1956. This cyst actually arises from the cell rests of dental lamina. It can occur anywhere in the jaw but is commonly seen in the posterior part of the mandible. Since the clinical features and radiological appearance are not characteristic this condition is commonly misdiagnosed. This is more so when the lesion is related to the nonvital tooth. Odontogenic keratocyst has been rechristened as keratocystic odontogenic tumor by WHO working group in 2005. This was necessitated to differentiate this lesion from its orthokeratinizing variant which is currently considered as odontogenic …
Subperiosteal Hematoma Of Orbit An Interesting Case Report And Review Of Literature, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Subperiosteal Hematoma Of Orbit An Interesting Case Report And Review Of Literature, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Subperiosteal Hematoma orbit is an uncommon disorder which may occur following injury to orbit. Of course there are other causes that cause this condition as well. This condition has been reported in young adults. This case report discusses a patient who developed subperiosteal hematoma following trivial injury to orbit. Since this condition had occurred following trivial injury to orbit diagnosis was not made pre operatively. It was discovered only on the table. A high index of suspicion and an accurate history is necessary to identify this condition. This case is being reported not only for its rarity but also to …
Endoscopic Orbital Decompression, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Endoscopic Orbital Decompression, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Orbital decompression surgery has been indicated in patients with compressive optic neuropathy, severe corneal exposure, cosmetic deformity due to proptosis. Traditional orbital decompression approaches were fraught with complications. With the advent of nasal endoscopes decompression is being carried out transnasally under endoscopic guidance. The entire medial wall of orbit can be taken down transnasally using nasal endoscope, and the inferior wall of orbit can be removed using the same approach. Currently endoscopic orbital decompression is being preformed commonly with very minimal complications. The aim of this paper is to review the current literature on the subject.
Orbital Complications Of Sinusitis A Review, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Orbital Complications Of Sinusitis A Review, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Introduction: Despite availability of excellent antibiotics, orbital complications’ following sinusitis is rather common. With the emergence of fungal sinusitis orbital involvement by the disease is getting frequent. Prevalence of life style disorders like diabetes mellitus has added to the woes. This article attempts to review the entire gamut of orbital complications following sinus infections. Aim: This study aims at analyzing orbital complications following sinusitis at Government Stanley Medical College Hospital during the period 2009 – 2013. Study design: Retrospective study Methodology: Cases with rhinosinusitis treated in our Institution during the period 2009-2013 were taken up for analysis. 112 patients were …
Patterns Of Orbital Disorders, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Patterns Of Orbital Disorders, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
This article discusses various patterns of presentations of orbital lesions. Since this article has been authored by an otolaryngologist, the entire concept has been viewed from otolaryngologist's angle. With the advent of nasal endoscope trans nasal access to orbit is becoming the order of the day. Major advantage being that external skin incision is avoided.
Laying The Tears Highway- A Drive Through Endo-Dcr, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan, Srikamakshi Kothandaraman
Laying The Tears Highway- A Drive Through Endo-Dcr, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan, Srikamakshi Kothandaraman
Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
This article is an attempt to review the technique of Dacryocystorhinostomy in the treatment of epiphora and bring to light the various modifications that have been developed in recent times to refine the procedure and optimize the outcome of surgery.
Presbyacusis A Review, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Presbyacusis A Review, Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Balasubramanian Thiagarajan
Life expectancy of Humans is on the rise. World’s human population is aging rapidly. According to a report of US census Bureau nearly 24% of current world population is above the age of 50. This is a phenomenal number. Hearing loss due to degenerative process is rather common in old age. Presbyacusis is defined as a progressive bilateral symmetrical age related sensorineural hearing loss. The hearing loss is confined to higher frequencies. This causes a greater burden on them considering the fact that they already have failing eyesight. This article attempts to review the current scenario pertaining to Presbyacusis with …
