rhinoscopic examination, photographs and Nasal Obstruction and Septoplasty Effectiveness (NOSE) scores for the pre-operative and post-operative 1 year were compared and evaluated in this study. The new approach was used successfully in all of the patients. Anterior rhinoscopic and 1 year photographic evaluations revealed a significantly correction of external appearance post-operatively. None
the study, nasal obstruction was evaluated by patients, and physical examinations, measurements of vital parameters and rhinoscopic examinations were carried out by investigators. Adverse events were documented during the entire study, and following treatment, patients judged the overall preference, efficacy and tolerability of both products. Overall, no significant differences in sum scores
with rhinoplasty. Nasal obstruction was the most presenting symptom in almost all patients. The most common site of persistent septal deviation was middle septum (58%) followed by caudal septum (31%). Correcting techniques included further chondrotomy and excision of deviated portion in 76% and caudal batten graft in 39%. Rhinoscopic and endoscopic exams showed straight septum in 97% and 92 patients had
findings of nasal polyposis. Consistently, the patient had previously been diagnosed with and treated for nasal polyposis in another ENT clinic. Physical examination, rhinoscopic examination, computed tomography (CT) scan of the head did not reveal any findings which might imply malignant formations. The operation had been planned for nasal polypectomy and taking deep biopsy specimens. The incised mass
symptom score and RTSS decreased significantly at year 1 in the 2 groups ( < 0.05). There were no significant differences in percent decrease in nasal symptom score and RTSS at year 1 between the 2 groups ( < 0.05); however, rhinoscopic nasal symptom score decreased significantly in the SLIT-treated group ( < 0.05). Immunological studies showed that serum specific IgA levels (not specific IgE/IgG
of 33 volunteers were randomly assigned to receive either surfactant solution or buffered saline at baseline in a controlled crossover study design. Each subject underwent rhinoscopic exam and in-office smell testing via the 40-question smell identification test (SIT). Those with non-normosmic results or active rhinitis symptoms were excluded. Subjects were instructed to irrigate twice daily
. On retroflexed pharyngoscopy, a plaque-like mass occluded the choanae. Rostral rhinoscopic examination revealed extensive loss of nasal turbinates, necrotic tissue and mucosal fungal plaques in the left nasal cavity. The right nasal cavity was less severely affected. The nasal cavities were debrided extensively of plaques and necrotic tissue. was isolated on fungal culture, and species identity was confirmed fungal plaques were again debrided endoscopically and oral posaconazole was administered for 6 months. Fourteen months from diagnosis, the cat remains clinically well with mild intermittent left nasal discharge secondary to atrophic rhinitis. This is the first case of rhinoscopically confirmed sinonasal aspergillosis to be diagnosed in a cat in the UK. Endoscopic confirmation of resolution

Tolerability was determined through the Nasal Spray Evaluation Questionnaire, and quality of life was ascertained with the SNOT-20 Score. Results. Both treatments achieved a significant reduction of sinusitis symptoms (P < 0.05) and also rhinoscopic improvement (P < 0.05). The majority of patients assessed the treatments
(3TNSS). In addition, rhinoscopic findings were rated by the investigators as an efficacy measure. As a safety measure, adverse events and clinical chemistry and hematology were evaluated. Mean change from baseline over the entire treatment period in 3TNSS was greater in the FFNS 55μg group compared with placebo, and the difference was statistically significant (p < 0.001). Significant improvements in rhinoscopic findings of swelling of inferior turbinate mucosa and quantity of nasal discharge were also observed. The total ocular symptom score (TOSS) was reduced significantly in the FFNS 55μg group, compared with placebo, in the second week in a subgroup of patients with baseline TOSS > 0. The incidence of adverse events was similar between FFNS 55μg(18%) and placebo (19%). Two-week treatment with FFNS

There was statistically significant increase in hypertrophy of the middle turbinates and prominence of bulla ethmoidalis with OMC impingement on the side opposite to the direction of septal deviation. No apparent statistically significant difference between ipsilateral and contra lateral side

National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2009) of 8,012 adults older than 18 years were analyzed. The correlation between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) level and presence of AR using questionnaires on symptoms, history of diagnosis of AR, and rhinoscopic findings were analyzed. All estimates were calculated based on sampling weight. Mean age was 44.41 years and men constituted 49.8

A single treatment with Nasya/Prevalin led to a significant reduction of TNSS at 60, 75 and 90 min after dust mite allergen challenge as compared with placebo (pVCAS = 0.021, pVCAS = 0.035, pVCAS = 0.036, respectively). Mucosa changes assessed by the rhinoscopic score (on swelling, secretion and colour) were significantly worse in the placebo group compared

Effect of Nose Selection Using Rhnoscope on Epistaxis of Nasotracheal Intubation Rhinoscope is useful to exam intranasal structure. This information could be utilized to select more suitable nose for nasotracheal intubation. Nastoracheal intubation using more patent nose could be associated with decrease of the development of epistaxis which is most common complication in nasotracheal intubation . Anterior rhinoscopy using rhinoscope is a simple way to view the intranasal structure, which allows you to observe the nasal mucosa, the inferior nasal concha, and in some cases, the nasal concha. You can see the nasal septum, polyps, and intranasal malformations. In addition, even when there are no structural abnormalities in the nasal cavity, the wider nasal cavity can be intuitively identified
