What's in a name? Eponyms in head and neck imaging.

Head and neck (H&N) eponyms serve to honour physicians who have made important contributions. Compared with more descriptive diagnostic names, eponyms can sometimes be confusing, especially to the novice. Adding to the confusion, eponyms are sometimes applied incorrectly. Nevertheless, their use remains common in the medical literature and clinical practice. Familiarity with H&N eponyms is important for accurate communication with radiology colleagues and clinicians. Some eponyms describe potentially fatal infections and their urgency should be appreciated. Other eponyms, such as those for inn

The nystagmus produced by the VT demonstrated a horizontal component in 96% of the patients, a vertical com …

A Potential Interaction Between Bisphosphonates and Osseointegration of Bone-Anchored Hearing Aid Implants Leading to Late Device Extrusion.

Bisphosphonate therapy is commonly used to treat patients suffering from osteoporosis due to its clinical effectiveness and its generally benign safety profile; however, osteonecrosis of the jaw is a rare side effect that can occur in some patients. A far less elucidated area of concern is the effect of these medications on osseointegrated implants, which require adequate bone formation to ensure long-term viability of the implant. To date, there are no reports in the otolaryngology literature examining the interplay between osteoporosis, bisphosphonate therapy, and osseointegrated bone-anchor

Bone anchored hearing aid: an evidence-based analysis.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this health technology policy assessment was to determine the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of bone-anchored hearing aid (BAHA) in improving the hearing of people with conduction or mixed hearing loss. THE TECHNOLOGY: The (BAHA) is a bone conduction hearing device that includes a titanium fixture permanently implanted into the mastoid bone of the skull and an external percutaneous sound processor. The sound processor is attached to the fixture by means of a skin penetrating abutment. Because the device bypasses the middle ear and directly stimulates the coch…

Expression of the epidermal growth factor system in human middle ear cholesteatoma.

CONCLUSION: The detection of the HER4 receptor in 50% of cholesteatomas but never in the reference tissue, and the increased expression of its activating ligand EPI, suggest that EPI-mediated activation of HER4 might play a role in cholesteatoma growth. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) system in human middle ear cholesteatoma. METHODS: Forty-seven patients referred for surgery due to cholesteatoma were included in the study. Clinical data were collected. Biopsies of cholesteatoma and skin from the external ear canal were obtained during surgery. m

Triple dumbbell-shaped jugular foramen schwannomas.

PURPOSE: Triple dumbbell-shaped jugular foremen schwannomas (DSJFSs) have high cervical extension according to Bulsara's classification. One-stage, single-discipline, total removal of triple DSJFSs is not always possible due to their both intracranial and cervical extensions. We evaluated our experience in one-stage resection of triple DSJFSs by using a combined neurosurgical and head and neck approach. METHODS: Between October 2004 and May 2009, eight patients with triple DSJFSs were treated surgically at our institute. The clinical and radiological features, operative procedures and outcome
