Abstract
Hoarseness after endotracheal intubation can result from compression of the anterior branch of the recurrent laryngeal nerve as it passes behind the thyroid cartilage to innervate the lateral cricoarytenoid muscle. This usually occurs when the cuff of the endotracheal tube lies in the larynx instead of the trachea. When a nasogastric tube is positioned in the midline, resultant postcricoid inflammation can result in vocal cord immobility. This may result from neuropraxia of the posterior branch of the recurrent laryngeal nerve that innervates the posterior cricoarytenoid and interarytenoid muscles, or inflammatory spasm of the interarytenoid muscles themselves. We present a case of vocal cord paralysis after general anesthesia that may have been caused by an esophageal stethoscope. The mechanism for vocal cord immobility could be similar to that of a midline nasogastric tube with resultant postcricoid inflammation. We describe measures that can be taken to prevent vocal cord paralysis after intubation of the larynx or esophagus.

Determinants of spontaneous healing in traumatic perforations of the tympanic membrane.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES:
To analyse the various factors influencing spontaneous healing of traumatic tympanic membrane perforation in West Africa.
STUDY DESIGN:
Prospective clinical study. Setting: Tertiary referral centre.
PARTICIPANTS:
Consecutive patients with traumatic tympanic membrane perforations without history of previous middle ear disease.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:
Healing outcome at 4, 8, 12 weeks; effects of perforation size, location, and mode of injury, active intervention and ear discharge on healing outcome.
RESULTS:
Fifty-three patients, 32 (60%) men and 21 (40%) women, aged 2-86 years, with traumatic tympanic membrane perforation who met our inclusion criteria were analysed. Ninety-four percent of the perforations healed spontaneously. Spontaneous healing was significantly correlated with age (P < 0.05). It was significantly delayed by large perforations estimated at 50% or more of entire tympanic membrane, ear discharge, wrong intervention on acute perforation by ear syringing, and by penetrating injuries sustained through the ear canal (P < 0.05, P < 0.01, P < 0.01 and P < 0.01 respectively). Perforations in the anterior versus posterior quadrants showed no significant difference in the healing rate (P > 0.05). Non-healing of the traumatic perforation was significantly associated with the large perforations, ear discharge and wrong intervention by ear syringing in chi-square test (P = 0.01, P = 0.02 and P < 0.001 respectively), but only with penetrating injuries sustained through the ear canal and the ear syringing intervention in logistic regression test (P = 0.02 and P = 0.04 respectively).
CONCLUSION:
The rate of spontaneous healing of traumatic tympanic membrane perforation varied inversely with age of patient and size of perforation. It was delayed by middle-ear infection, as well as in ears that sustain direct injuries and in ears that had wrong interventions. However, it was not dependent on whether the perforation was in the anterior or posterior location. Logistic regression analysis revealed that penetrating injuries sustained through the ear canal and the ear syringing intervention were the only risk factors important in predicting the non-healing of traumatic tympanic membrane perforation.

Abstract
An 8-month-old female baby was found collapsed in the prone position 30 min after being positioned under soft-bedding. She was taken to the emergency room with cardiopulmonary arrest. Her heartbeat was recovered after resuscitation and continued for 20 h under artificial respiration, at which point the child died. At autopsy, the child showed no significant pathological abnormalities apart from a thyroglossal duct cyst of 2.0 cm diameter, therefore, it seemed that the cyst, which was close to the epiglottis, had caused asphyxia through airways occlusion. However, the child had shown no respiratory problems before death, and the risk of airway occlusion as a result of lingual cysts is more likely in a supine rather than a prone position. A small amount of evidence suggested that the child died as a result of suffocation from being covered by soft-bedding, which could have caused fatal asphyxia; it is also possible that a hypoxic state induced by airway obstruction might have been enhanced by being covered with bedding. It seemed reasonable to assume that death was caused by a combination of the lingual thyroglossal duct cysts and asphyxia caused by being covered in bedding, though the main factor appeared to be the large cyst.

Vascular hamartoma of the paranasal sinuses: report of 3 rare cases and a short review of the literature - page 2 | Ear, Nose & Throat Journal
Vascular hamartoma of the paranasal sinuses: report of 3 rare cases and a short review of the literature - page 2 | Ear, Nose & Throat Journal
All 3 tumors described herein are unusual in the sense that they were microscopically characterized by the presence of widely spaced, variously sized, blood-filled vascular channels embedded in a connective tissue stroma that varied from loose fibroadipose tissue (patient 1) to dense fibroblastic tissue (patients 2 and 3). These morphologic features are consistent with the designation of vascular hamartoma. Morphologically, hemangiomas bear a close resemblance to vascular hamartomas, and it is often difficult to distinguish the two. However, unlike the histology seen in these 3 cases, most of the hemangiomas that have been reported in the sinonasal region were either classic capillary hemangiomas, cavernous hemangiomas, or ossifying angiomas.

Phlebectasia of the External Jugular Vein
Phlebectasia of the External Jugular Vein
Jugular phlebectasia, an entity increasingly recognised in recent years, is an isolated saccular or fusiform dilation of a vein without tortuosity. There is a controversy about etiology. This paper reports a case of localised distension of the external jugular vein in a 24-year-old male patient complaining of intermittent right neck swelling while lying down or straining (Valsalva maneuvre). The diagnosis was confirmed by color Doppler ultrasonography, surgical excision was carried out without any complication.
The possible differential diagnosis for the swelling could include a branchial cyst, cystic hygroma, laryngocoele, cavernous haemangioma and superior mediastinal cysts

Water as a fast acting wax softening agent before ear syringing.

Dimboola Medical Centre, Victoria. drpavlidis@bigpond.com
Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Dispute exists over the best treatment for softening occlusive earwax. Some require the patient to go away for days before returning for syringing. Some syringe immediately with no preparation.
METHODS:
An open, nonblinded, randomised controlled trial was conducted in one rural general practice. Effects of instillation of water into the ear canal for 15 minutes before syringing were compared to effects of syringing immediately.
RESULTS:
Thirty-nine ears (of 26 patients) were randomised. Ear wax was removed entirely by syringing in all ears. Prior instillation of water required a mean 7.5 (+/- 7.3) attempts at syringing versus a mean 25.4 (+/- 39.4) attempts for ears that were syringed immediately (p=0.043).
DISCUSSION:
Prior installation of water before syringing seems to be an effective and simple method of reducing the number of attempts required to clear the ear of occlusive wax.

Bone-anchored devices in single-sided deafness.

Abstract
Single sided deafness (SSD) implies sensorineural hearing loss in one ear with normal contralateral hearing function. Traditionally, SSD patients have been overlooked due to a belief that the preserved functioning of the contralateral ear compensates for the nonhearing side. SSD patients however experience multiple audiological difficulties, particularly when the sound source is situated on the non-hearing side or in the presence of competing sounds. Through reviewing current literature, we describe the role of bone-anchored devices (Baha) in the management of SSD patients. Recent publications for Baha in SSD have demonstrated consistent objective and subjective improvement in audiologic metrics when compared to unaided conditions. There is also evidence of benefit provided by Baha by the Abbreviated Profile of Hearing Aid Benefit, in global measures of ease of communication, reverberation, and background noise, but not typically in aversiveness to sounds. Interestingly, despite some patients gaining minimal objective or subjective benefits, the majority of these patients still report improved quality of life and would recommend the procedure. Despite increasing evidence for the role of Baha in the management of SSD in the literature, much of these data are based on older technology. Further reports should specify the processor type used and the etiology of the hearing loss to ensure accuracy of future data.

Wrong-site sinus surgery in otolaryngology
Approximately 10 percent of survey respondents know of a case of wrong-site sinus surgery occurring; the majority of respondents are concerned about a wrong-sinus or wrong-sided surgery occurring in their practice. Otolaryngologists should be vigilant regarding the potential for inverted computed tomography images; there should be national efforts to address this latent systems defect. Surgeons should be trained in understanding the role of and engaging in disclosure and in other techniques that are of greatest support to the patient. Consideration of sinus-specific checklists should be led by the societies representing sinus surgeons.

Discoid lupus erythematosus Ear
The lesions typically present as well-circumscribed, erythematous plaques with telangiectasia and scales and atrophy in long-standing disease.
DLE is a Benign subtype of lupus erythematosus involving the skin, particularly the face and can involve pinna as in the above case. It is characterized by various-sized, erythematous, well-defined, scaly patches, which tend to heal with atrophy, scarring and pigmentary changes. The onset of the lesions may be precipitated by trauma, mental stress, sunburn and exposure to cold. Visceral involvement does not occur, but a small percentage of patients with DLE may later develop a systemic lupus erythematosus. Haematological and serological changes in about half the patients suggest an autoimmune aetiology.
Rx-corticosteroids are prescribed to decrease the immune system response. Topical creams that are applied to the rash areas are effective in reducing their spread and severity. A cortisone injection directly into lesions is another alternative. Antimalarial medications are also effective treatments for discoid lupus.
