Study Notes
ORL 2023 Questions
- Weber's Test Lateralization: Weber's test lateralizes to the affected ear in unilateral conductive hearing loss
- Rhinoliquor Location: Used to determine the location of rhinoliquor using rhinoendoscopic examination, rhinoendoscopic examination + intrathecal florescein, HRCT, CT cisternography, MRI cisternography
- Nystagmus Types: Spontaneous nystagmus, after air irritation (24°C), after water irritation (37°C), after water irritation (44°C)
- Chronic Otitis Characteristics: Characterized by opacity of the cell system, fluid behind the intact eardrum, or eardrum perforation
- Otosclerosis Hearing Loss: Caused by dense sclerotic bone in the basal turn of the cochlea
- Acoustic Reflex Testing: Investigates the function of the sacculus, cochlear nerve, and facial nerve and the defense mechanism against noise-induced hearing loss
- Sialadenitis: The most common viral pathogen is the mumps virus. Generally, it does not respond well to medical management with antibiotics
- Hypopharyngeal Carcinoma: Induction chemotherapy with radiotherapy and surgical treatment with radiotherapy have the same results
- Etiological factor: Consumption of concentrated alcohol and tobacco. Smoking
- Hypopharyngeal Carcinoma Symptoms: The most frequent symptoms are the sensation of a foreign body in the pharynx and dysphagia
- Bullous Myringitis: Paracentesis is performed after which the patient has less pain. The disease is caused by herpes zoster virus or influenza virus
- Malignant Otitis Externa: Usually caused by Streptococcus pyogenes or Pseudomonas aeruginosa
- Laryngomalacia: Caused by the prolapse of tissue into the larynx during inspiration. Usually gets better after 3 to 4 months.
- Head and Neck Cancers: PET-CT is superior to either PET or CT alone in evaluation. Intravenous contrast in CT has an importance in the neck
- Salivary Glands: Saliva contains antimicrobial agents
- Myringotomy in Acute Otitis Media (AOM): Performed when spontaneous perforation is present or when antibiotics have been administered and temperature continues to persist.
- Vocal Cord Paresis: Adductor paresis results in the vocal cords being abducted, resulting in difficult breathing and resonant voice.
- Acute Otitis Media With Facial Nerve Palsy: Audiometric examination in vestibular schwannoma shows stapedial reflexes missing and conductive hearing loss
- Vestibulocochlear Nerve Neurinoma (n. VIII): Hearing loss with tinnitus and vertigo is present. Impaired innervation of the facial nerve (n. VII) may be present
Other Topics
- Cystic Fibrosis: Characterized by nasal polyps in pediatric patients, often described as a "whiteout effect" on CT scans
- Temporal Bone Fractures: The most prevalent kind involve transverse fractures
- Chronic Bacterial Rhinosinusitis: CT is useful for diagnosis, and treatment involves targeted antibiotic therapy based on microbiological results
- Laryngeal Carcinoma: Glottic, supraglottic, and subglottic carcinomas
- Examination of the Pharynx: Clinical examination revealing unilateral hypoglossal palsy (tongue deviation) during protrusion.
- Hearing Loss: Conductive and Sensorineural
- Bezold Triad: The otoscope findings
- Otitis Media and Intracranial Complications: Often spread by per continuitatem or hematogenous routes.
- Imaging Methods: Methods including CT (computed tomography), MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) PET-CT, and potentially others, depending on the specific area being imaged
- Glomus Tympanicum: Usually associated with pulsating tinnitus, sometimes manifesting as bleeding from the ear.
- Cochlear Implant: Suitable for congenitally deaf children under 6 years, those with retrocochlear hearing loss, those using gesture language.
- Foreign Body Aspirations: Often occur in the left main bronchus
- Hearing Loss in Otosclerosis: A conductive hearing loss, with Weber testing lateralizing to the affected ear
