Los procedimientos intratimpánicos se realizan frecuentemente de manera ambulatoria en los policlínicos de otorrinolaringología. Dada la inervación de la membrana timpánica, estos procedimientos generan disconfort y dolor, por lo que la aplicación previa de anestésicos tópicos sobre la membrana t...
INTRODUCCIÓN. La patología de oído es una enfermedad frecuente en nuestro
medio, asociada a infecciones a repetición del oído, con la presencia de perforación
timpánica y colesteatoma, que determinará la presencia de lesiones mucho más
acentuadas en cuanto a la evolución auditiva o complicacion...
Introdução: A presença de líquido na orelha médiapode causar perdas auditivas de condução e atrasos no desenvolvimento da criança. A timpanotomia e colocação do tubo de ventilação é o tratamento para casos em que o acúmulo de secreção é persistente. Objetivo: Avalia...
Abstract Introduction: As a supplement, beta-glucan has various therapeutic healing effects generated by the immune cells. It has been scientifically approved and proven to be a biological defense modifier. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of beta-glucan on treatments administered in...
Abstract Introduction: Traumatic tympanic membrane perforations tend to heal spontaneously. However, in this study, several perforations exhibited abnormal healing, where the morphology of healing tympanic membranes differed from that of non-perforated tympanic membranes. Pseudo-healing of the tympanic ...
