Opis:
Aim: To evaluate outcomes of stapes surgery in children with congenital stapes fixation and juvenile otosclerosis. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed from 1987 to 2013 to identify patients under 18 years old who underwent a stapes surgery. Patients' age, gender, pre- and postoperative audiograms, intraoperative findings including aetiology of stapes fixation, prosthesis type, and complications were analysed. Results: 18 children (6 - 17 years old), all with bilateral conductive hearing loss were identified and 34 stapes surgeries were performed (two patients underwent surgery only on one side). The cause of fixation included juvenile otosclerosis in 88% and congenital stapes fixation in 12%. The mean pre-operative air-bone gap (ABG) was 36,24 dB (SD: 10,86) compared to a postoperative mean ABG of 7,74 (SD: 3,3) (p < 0.000). The profound sensorineural hearing loss was not observed in long-term follow-up. Conclusions: Paediatric stapes surgery has comparable results to stapedectomy in adults regardless of the cause of stapes fixation; however, the better hearing outcome was observed for cases of juvenile otosclerosis rather than congenital stapes fixation.

Introduction. The aim of this study was to analyse the occurrence of inverted papillomas of the nose and paranasal sinuses in patients that underwent endoscopic sinus surgery in our department. Material and methods. Between 2006 and 2016, 3,574 patients underwent surgery due to paranasal sinus diseases. Patients were qualified for surgery based on medical history, computed tomography, and laboratory tests. Data were gathered from medical files, and they included age, sex, and histopathological diagnosis. Results. Among 3,574 patients that underwent surgery due to chronic inflammatory changes, on histopathology, inverted papillomas were diagnosed in 80 patients, including 31 women (38.75%) and 49 men (61.25%). Most patients were aged 60-70 years (women, 12.5%; men, 15%) or 50-60 years (women, 5%; men, 21.25%). Between 2006 and 2016, the number of surgeries ranged from 264 (7.38%) in 2013 to 355 (9.93%) in 2016, and the number of inverted papillomas ranged from 4 in 2007 and 2015 (1.23%) to 12 in 2014 (3.87%). Over the last 4 years of the study period, the incidence of inverted papillomas increased. Conclusions. Among 3,574 patients operated on due to chronic inflammatory changes, on histopathology, inverted papillomas were diagnosed in 80 cases (2.23%); thus, all patients qualified for endoscopic surgery due to inflammatory or hypertrophic changes should undergo rhino-fiberoscopy. Recurrence of inverted papillomas was observed in 17.50%, typically in patients with nasal polyps that co-occurred with inverted papillomas. We regard rhino-fiberoscopy as the most valuable method for detecting tumour recurrence in patients after surgery for inverted papillomas ranged from 4 in 2007 and 2015 (1.23%) to 12 in 2014 (3.87%). Over the last 4 years of the study period, the incidence of inverted papillomas increased. Conclusions. Among 3,574 patients operated on due to chronic inflammatory changes, on histopathology, inverted papillomas were diagnosed in 80 cases (2.23%); thus, all patients qualified for endoscopic surgery due to inflammatory or hypertrophic changes should undergo rhino-fiberoscopy.

Introduction: Stapedotomy is currently the surgical technique of choice for treating otosclerosis. Despite this, there is no agreement about the best technique to perform a small fenestra footplate, therefore multiple procedures have been proposed. The aim of this study was to investigate the hearing outcomes of microdrill and manual perforator. Material and Methods: An observational prospective study was carried out on patients who underwent stapedotomy. We analyzed the hearing threshold in two groups of patients according to the way the fenestra footplate was realized by microdrill or manual perforator. Results: A total of 113 patients were evaluated. Postoperative hearing gain of the microdrill group was 23.29 (18.58) dB HL 95% CI (18.40–28.18), while in the manual perforator group, it was 22.67 (12.91) dB HL 95% CI (19.07–26.26). Both groups were statistically significant. Postoperative bone conductive hearing threshold at the frequencies of 0.5, 1 and 2 KHz and postoperative air conductive hearing threshold at the frequencies of 2 and 4 KHz showed statistically significant differences in the manual perforator group. The closure of air-bone gap was higher in the microdrill group with statistically significant differences. Conclusion: Both manual perforator and microdrill have good hearing outcomes at six months after surgery. The manual perforator has better audiological outcomes than microdrill. Hence, the manual perforator is a safe technique and can be used in centers that do not have other methods to make the small fenestra.

Recommendations of the Main Board of the Polish Society of Otorhinolaryngologists, Head and Neck Surgeons for providing services during the COVID-19 pandemic constitute the guidance to outpatient and hospital practices in all cases where contact with a patient whose status of COVID-19 is unknown. They have been created based on world publications and recommendations due to the current state of the COVID-19 pandemic. Justification for suspension of planned provision of services in the first phase of a pandemic was presented. The indication of the best medical practices for the time of stabilization, but with the persistence of the risk of COVID-19 infection in the population are discussed. The possibility of providing services in the following months of the pandemic is important. We provide the rationale for launching medical activities and indicate optimal practices until the consolidation of SARS COV-2 prevention and treatment methods.

Introduction: There are different complications related to the submandibular gland resection, like damage to the mandibular branch of the facial nerve, lingual or hypoglossal nerve. Moreover, subjective complaints like dry mouth, altered sensation around the scar and taste alterations were described. Patients and methods: A prospective, non-randomized study was performed including 20 patients treated with submandibular gland resection. Results: The most common etiology was sialolithiasis affecting 9 (45%) patients. One (5%) patient presented a lingual nerve paresis, 2 (10%) patients presented a transient marginal mandibular branch paresis and no hypoglossal nerve alteration was observed. Factors like the size of the lithiasis (P = 0.293), size of the tumor (P = 0.445) or type of pathology (P = 0.694) were not related with neurological complications. Altered sensation in the skin around a scar was the most severely weighted problem (55% and 33.3%), and xerostomia was the second one (33% and 27.3%) at one month and at six months after surgery, respectively. Conclusion: The submandibular gland resection remains to be a safe technique with a low rate of surgical and neurological complications. However, patients should be informed about sequelae like xerostomia, altered sensation in the skin or pain around the scar, which may be discomforting. The cosmetic result can be satisfactory, but a surgical scar can be avoided with another approach. Although rare, the risk of MBFN, lingual and hypoglossal nerve damage should always be included in the preoperative information on surgical risks.

Introduction: Recurrent thyroglossal duct cyst after surgery is not a rare condition and first-line treatment has not been established yet. Aim: Evaluation of outcomes and complications of OK-432 treatment in patients with recurrent thyroglossal duct cyst after surgery. Material and methods: This study is designed as a case series with planned data collection at Tohoku Medical and Pharmaceutical University and Fukase Clinic. Five patients with recurrent thyroglossal duct cyst after surgery received this therapy between January 2014 and February 2020 on an outpatient basis, without hospitalization. OK-432 solution was injected into the lesion using an 18- or 27-gauge needle, depending on the location and size of the lesion, as well as on possible complications. Results: Lesions showed marked reduction or total shrinkage in all patients, with no local scarring or deformity at the injection site. Side effects manifested as local pain at the site of injection and fever (37.5–38.5°C) observed in three patients, but the symptoms resolved within a few days. Conclusions: Since OK-432 therapy is simple, easy, safe and effective, it can be used as an alternative to surgery in the treatment of recurrent thyroglossal duct cyst after surgery.

Introduction: Patients before 50 years of age with HPV-positive oropharyngeal cancer are characterized by significantly better survival than HPV-negative patients. The consequences of oncological treatment directly affect physiological function of the organs of the upper respiratory tract and, in consequence, the quality of life of these individuals. Therefore, the choice of therapy is of great importance. Minimally invasive surgery offers radical oncological treatment, while preserving the quality of life. The principal surgical methods are transoral access using TLM, electrosurgery and TORS. Radiochemotherapy as primary treatment is equally effective in the first and second stages of clinical advancement of cancer. However, occurrence of late complications such as swallowing, breathing, taste and smell disorders led to a recent re-emergence of minimally invasive surgery, particularly transoral robotic surgery, which has been widely used in head and neck surgery in the United States of America, Asia and Western European countries for more than 20 years. After many years, Poland joined the community of countries where the head and neck interventions are performed using the da Vinci Surgical System. Objective: The purpose of the work is to present our own experience with the TORS at the Department of the Head and Neck Surgery and Laryngological Oncology of the Poznan University of Medical Sciences and to analyze the latest literature reports on the use of TORS in the treatment of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

The main objective of the study was to determine the validity of intraoperative antiseptic treatment during endoscopic sinus surgery and the impact of such a treatment on the postoperative outcomes. Fifty-five patients with chronic sinusitis, qualified for surgical treatment were enrolled into the trial. It was designed as a prospective, randomized, blinded study. The surgical procedures were performed on both sides, in the same scope. In the next stage, after opening, one side was flushed with saline solution, and the other side with octenidine solution. The analysis showed a statistically significant reduction in postoperative crusting measured using the Lund-Kennedy scale between the test and the control group. Intraoperative lavage of the paranasal sinuses in both control and study group showed an effect on decreasing the total number of positive postoperative cultures relative to preoperative ones. Study showed a beneficial effect of the intervention consisting in rinsing with Octenisept on the reduction of crusting in the postoperative assessment.

Elective tracheostomy before resection of a malignancy in head and neck region assures unobstructed ventilation during postoperative period but is associated with an increased risk of complications. We aimed to evaluate retrospectively, how the application of elective tracheostomy scales would influence the frequency of tracheostomy in comparison with preoperative clinical judgement. In 205 patients operated on from 2013 till 2017, theresection of a malignancy involved suprahyoid or pharyngeal muscles, neck dissection and flap reconstruction. The decision on elective tracheostomy was made on the clinical basis. Score for each patient in 3 published scales was calculated. In the study group 76 patients had elective tracheostomy at the outset of a resection procedure. Among 129 patients without elective tracheostomy, 9 had tracheostomy in the postoperative period. Indications for elective tracheostomy were calculated for scale I, II and III. Only in 120 patients the decision whether to perform elective tracheostomy would be identical in each scale. Our results suggest that decisions to perform elective tracheostomy based on 3 scales show low specificity. The factors used in the published scales should be evaluated in a prospective multicenter study

Introduction: Microvascular free tissue transfer enables the reconstruction of complex head and neck defects. The aim of the study was to assess the results of treatment of patients undergoing reconstructive surgery and to identify factors affecting these results, with particular reference to patient’s age. Materials and Methods: All patients who underwent free-flap head and neck reconstruction in our institution between 2010 and 2017 were included in this retrospective study. A series of 66 patients met the inclusion criteria and were divided into 2 age groups: group G1 aged <65 years (n = 41) and group G2 aged ≥65 years (n = 25). Minor local complications and general complications as well as comorbidities were analyzed. Results: No correlation was found between advanced age and the risk of free flap failure as well as the incidence of local minor complications. General complications were more frequent in the G2 group (32%) than in the G1 group (19.5%), although this is not a statistically significant difference. A statistically significant difference was found between the age and the patient’s health status according to ASA (P = 0.010). In the younger low-risk group, 12 patients (29.3%) had general and local complications, while in the older low-risk group only 1 (4%). General and local complications were found in 5 (12.2%) high-risk G1 patients and in 7 (28%) high-risk G2 patients. Conclusion(s): Patients with advanced head and neck malignant tumors should undergo reconstructive microsurgery regardless of age.

Introduction: Knowledge about the physiology of a healthy middle ear is essential for understanding the activity and mechanics of the ear as well as the basics of ossiculoplasty. Trauma of the epithelial lining of the tympanic cavity as well as the ossicular chain may be the result of chronic inflammation and surgery. Depending on the observed changes of the middle ear lining, there are several types of distinguished chronic inflammatory changes: simple, with cholesteatoma, with the formation of inflammatory granulation tissue, in course of specific diseases. Purpose: The aim of the article is presentation of the microstructure and vasculature of the ossicular chain in the Scanning Electron Microscope. Particular attention is drawn to the anatomical aspects of the structure and connections of auditory ossicles as vital elements for reconstruction of the conduction system of the middle ear. Material and method: The analysis covered auditory ossicles standardly removed in accordance with the methodology of the investigated surgical procedures. The preparations were evaluated in a scanning electron microscope. Results: The exposure of bone surface promotes deep erosion. The advanced process of destruction of bone surface in the case of chronic otitis media correlates with a significant degree of damage to both the lining covering the auditory ossicles and that surrounding articular surfaces. Conclusions: (1) The ossicles in the image of the Scanning Electron Microscope are covered with lining. It passes from the surface of the ossicles to the vascular bundles, forming vascular sheaths; (2) Damage to lining continuity on the surface of the auditory ossicles promotes the rapid destruction of bone tissue in the inflammatory process; (3) The dimensions of the individual ossicles are respectively: malleus – 8.36 +/- 0.01, incus – 8.14 +/- 0.0, stapes – 3.23 +/- 0.01 mm. Behavior of the anatomical length of ossicular chain during tympanoplasty appears to be essential to maintaining adequate vibration amplitude of the conductive system of the middle ear.

Introduction: A Polish National Major Salivary Gland Benign Tumors Registry (SGR) is a report of benign salivary gland neoplasms (SGNs) from 26 different centres in Poland, introduced in 2014. The aim of this study is to analyze demographic characteristics and clinico-pathological factors of benign SGNs treated in large tertiary institutions and to determine possible correlations between selected variables. Material and method: Analysis of 585 patients recorded in SGR and operated on for SGNs in the Department of Otolaryngology and Laryngological Surgery, University of Medical Sciences, Poznań, Poland, over a 5-year period. Patient age, sex, occupation, place of residence, tumor location, size, histology, recurrence, facial nerve function after surgery, wound healing, surgery procedure, availability of pre-operative imaging examinations, fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) results were analyzed. Results: 338 females and 247 males with a mean age of 53 years were operated on. In total, 96.2% of tumors originated from the parotid and 3.8% from the submandibular gland. The most frequent primary tumor diameter was 2–4 cm (59.5%) followed by <2 cm (29.2%) and >4 cm (8.4%). Tumors of over 4 cm were frequently removed by partial superficial parotidectomy, while those under 2 cm – by extracapsullar dissection (ECD). Pleomorphic adenomas (PA) were predominant (58.8%), followed by Warthin’s tumor (WT) – 37.1%. Patients with WT were on average 13.3 years older than patients with PA. Discussion: This research can be helpful to better understand the clinico-pathological features of SGNs. Long-termin hospital-based analysis is important for subsequent metaanalyses and comparisons with other centers. The reasons why not all patients’ data are reported to the national SGR should be further precisely analyzed.

Introduction: Despite the recent advances in otosurgery diagnosis of cholesteatoma and qualification for surgery remains an issue in contemporary laryngology. In cases of cholesteatoma recidivism, it is of utmost importance to properly locate the pathology in the middle ear to plan surgical approach. Magnetic Resonance imaging in diffusion-weighted non-echoplanar sequences (non-EPI DWI) enables cholesteatoma detection as small as 2 mm and could potentially prevent unnecessary second-look surgery. Computed Tomography of the temporal bone allows precise visualization of bony structures and topographical landmarks of the middle ear. A fusion of both imaging modalities combines the advantages of these techniques. Material and methods: Five patients treated in the Department of Otolaryngology, the Medical University of Lodz for probable cholesteatoma recidivism were included in this study. A high-resolution CT scan of the temporal bone and an MRI scan including non-EPI sequences was obtained in all patients. A fusion of CT and MRI studies was conducted using OsirixMD software. Fist, CT studies were fused with MRI BFFE sequences, then non-EPI sequences were added. Finally, if the patient qualified for surgical treatment histopathological diagnosis was compared with MRI results. Results: CT scans were analyzed to establish the extent of previous surgical interventions and anatomical landmarks preservation. In all cases, MRI results were suspicious of cholesteatoma recidivism. Four cases were confirmed in postoperative histopathological evaluation, there was one false positive case when intraoperatively scar tissue was identified, which was later confirmed as connective tissue upon histopathological evaluation. Conclusions: CT and MRI fusion provides a helpful diagnostic tool in preparation for surgery in patients with suspected cholesteatoma recidivism.

INTRODUCTION: Sinonasal inverted papillomas (IPs) are a major challenge for ENT specialists. In the last decades, the number of endoscopic procedures has increased, while the percentage of external or double approach procedures has decreased. The aim of this study was to evaluate long-term IP treatment outcomes according to the applied surgical method. MATERIAL AND METHODS: the retrospective study included 69 patients (28 women and 41 men) treated during 2002–2012 in the Department of Otolaryngology and Laryngological Oncology of Poznań University of Medical Sciences. Of these patients, 47 were operated endoscopically, 16 received a double procedure and six received an external procedure. RESULTS: The recurrence rate in patients treated endoscopically was 32%, while patients treated by the external/double approach showed 64% (p = 0.03306). The recurrence rate after endoscopic surgery was 75% during 2002–2006, but was 28% during 2007–2012. There was no correlation between recurrence rate and age (p = 0.087686), gender (p = 0.42810), type of symptoms (p = 0.20955), or Krouse staging (p = 0.23658). A significant impact on relapses was the position to Ohngren’s plane (p = 0.004768) and tumor location in the anterior ethmoid (p = 0.00416). DISCUSSION: Endoscopic procedures are an effective method of IP treatment, however reasonable indications and surgeon experience should be taken into consideration.

Opis:
Introduction: The nasal valve is the main regulator of airflow in the nose. Consequently, the collapse of the nasal valve has a significant impact on nasal obstruction and hence quality-of-life of patients. Several nasal valve rhinoplasty techniques are being used, from cartilage grafts to endonasal resection of the upper lateral cartilage. We describe a new endonasal approach to nasal valve rhinoplasty, the Triangular Technique, and assess its efficacy and complication rate over ten years. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study of patients who underwent nasal valve rhinoplasty at three regional hospitals from Jan 2004 to May 2014 was conducted. Subjective reports were used to assess the improvement of nasal obstruction. A total of 24 patients were included. Results: Three months postoperatively, 19 patients reported improvement in nasal obstruction. Four patients required revision surgery. Two of these 4 patients had substantial symptom resolution post revision surgery. Ten patients were followed up for more than 5 years (range: 5.8 to 10.3 years), 9 of who reported continued satisfaction and none or minimal nasal obstruction after nasal valve rhinoplasty compared to before surgery. There were no reported complications. Discussion: The Triangular Technique is a straightforward endonasal technique to address collapsed nasal valves with minimal associated co-morbidities.
