Öğe The Effect of Mean Platelet Volume on the Patients with Nasal Polyps(UNIV WEST INDIES FACULTY MEDICAL SCIENCES, 2016) Erdur, O.; Sereflican, M.; Yurttas, V.; Erdem, F.[Abstract not Available]Öğe Effects of two different local anaesthetic methods vs no anaesthesia on pain scores for intratympanic injections(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2016) Ata, N.; Erdur, O.; Gorgulu, M. H.; Yilmaz, E.Objective: This study compared the pain associated with the intratympanic injection combined with various local anaesthetics vs without anaesthesia. Methods: The study included 40 patients (aged 18-78 years) who received intratympanic steroid injections for sudden idiopathic hearing loss or tinnitus. Each patient underwent all three injection methods at one-week intervals. Patients received one of two local anaesthetics (lidocaine injection or lidocaine spray) or no anaesthesia before intratympanic injection, and used a visual analogue scale to indicate the pain level after 5 and 45 minutes. Results: Five minutes after injection, patients who did not receive anaesthesia and those who received lidocaine spray reported lower pain scores than those who received a lidocaine injection (p < 0.05). There was no difference in pain scores for all three methods at 45 minutes after intratympanic injection. Conclusion: Neither of the local anaesthetics was found to be superior to having no anaesthesia.Öğe Evaluation of upper oesophageal sphincter in unilateral vocal fold paralysis(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2019) Erdur, O.; Gul, O.; Ozturk, K.Objective To evaluate dysphagia and manometric changes in the upper oesophageal sphincter in patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis. Methods Thirty patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis due to vagal nerve paralysis scheduled for evaluation were enrolled in the study group; 24 healthy subjects were included in the control group. Upper oesophageal sphincter basal and residual pressure, relaxation time, and pharyngeal pressure values were evaluated by manometry. All patients completed the Turkish Eating Assessment Tool 10 questionnaire, the MD Anderson dysphagia questionnaire and the reflux symptom index form. Results Swallowing assessment questionnaires and reflux symptom index results were significantly higher in the study group. Upper oesophageal sphincter basal and relaxation pressures were lower in the study group. Upper oesophageal sphincter relaxation time was shorter in the study group, but pressure values recorded from the pharynx were higher. Conclusion Upper oesophageal sphincter manometric pressure was lower in patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis. A hypotonic sphincter likely contributes to dysphagia and aspiration.Öğe Feasibility of a septal mucosal flap for preventing re-stenosis following the draf III procedure(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2018) Erdur, O.; Ozturk, K.; Erkan, K.Background: Re-stenosis and a consequent need for revision surgery are the most common problems in the follow-up period following endoscopic modification of the Lothrop procedure. Method: This paper reports a new technique for reconstructing and resurfacing of the posterior frontal recess bone for prevention of re-stenosis. Results: A 46-year-old man presented with a frontal sinus osteoma, and treatment featured an endoscopic modification of the Lothrop procedure. A vascularised, posteriorly based, septal mucosal flap was used in reconstruction. There have been no reported issues over 24 months of follow up. Conclusion: The use of a nasoseptal flap seems feasible to reduce scarring and recurrence of (common) frontal recess stenosis after a Draf III operation.
