ENT Conditions Quiz

Rigid or flexible procedure to examine laryngeal structures.

Tinnitus can be masked with noise generators and treated surgically.

Tests the function of sacculus, facial nerve, and cochlear nerve.

Used to assess Eustachian tube function and detect otosclerosis.

A benign tumor of the nasal cavity, treated surgically.

Benign tumors typically occur in the parotid gland and can be malignant.

Used to differentiate cochlear from retrocochlear hearing loss and assess thresholds.

Mostly caused by bacteria; nasal blockage is a typical sign.

Hearing loss can be sensorineural or conductive.

A hearing test that compares air conduction between both ears.

Compares air conduction to bone conduction, negative in conductive loss.

The treatment of choice is puncture or tonsillectomy.

A malignant tumor leading to hearing loss, tinnitus, and vertigo.

A sporadically occurring and hereditary tumor, poorly vascularized, treated with radiotherapy.

Inflammation of the external ear canal skin, often due to poor hygiene, treatable with local therapy.

Characterized by hyperemic, bulging, or grey tympanic membrane with perforation.

Diagnosed with a superficial injection seen on the malleus, B curve on tympanometry, and conductive hearing loss confirmed by audiometry.

A usually asymptomatic tumor affecting cranial nerve IX, treated via transmeatal approach.

Laryngitis primarily caused by a bacterial infection.

Surgical treatments include ossiculoplasty, myringotomy, myringoplasty, and mastoidectomy.

Narrowing of the trachea due to trauma or prolonged intubation.

Surgical technique to close fistula using autologous material.

Objective method using tonal audiometry and narrowband noise for masking.

Condition causing inflammatory changes in the larynx, particularly at the posterior commissure.

Infections spread hematogenously or percontinuitatem, leading to neurological symptoms.

Intracranial complications arising from ear infections.

A central vestibular disorder with atypical nystagmus and neurological symptoms.

Dizziness caused by head position change or pressure changes in the ear.

The most prevalent symptoms include heartburn and regurgitation.

Less common than intracranial complications but can lead to blindness.

Detect angular motion and acceleration in the vestibular system.

Absence in cases like deafness and cochlear nerve damage over 65dB.

Tests for vestibulospinal reflexes and assesses nystagmus.

Loss of at least 30 dB across three frequencies, often idiopathic.

A malignant neurogenic tumor from the olfactory epithelium, can metastasize.
