    The best time to operate on nasal polyps
    (Springer International Publishing, 2020) Ilhan, Ethem; Bayar Muluk, Nuray; Bedrosian, Jeffrey C.
    Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is superior to conventional methods insofar as it both allows polypectomy and opens the middle meatal clefts (the typical area of formation). Recurrence after ESS is therefore lower. How extensive the operation should be is unclear due to a lack of specific research on the subject. Possibilities range from total removal to improving the ventilation of the sinuses. Complete removal does appear at least as good or better than improving ventilation, in what little research is available. In the hands of an experienced surgeon, complications are rare. Surgical microdebriders allow for swifter and less risky surgery, since they allow greater precision in incision and reduce blood loss, alongside providing a better view for the surgeon. The operation targets affected areas seen on CT imaging preoperatively. Certain conditions warrant surgery as first-line treatment, since steroid therapy is largely ineffective. Such conditions include CF, primary ciliary dyskinesia syndrome and Young's syndrome. Following the removal of the lesions, the respiratory tract usually begins to recover. In this chapter, the best time to operate on nasal polyps is reviewed. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021.

    Tonsillopharyngitis during pregnancy and the postpartum period
    (Springer International Publishing, 2022) Alagöz, Bahar; Muluk, Nuray Bayar; Bedrosian, Jeffrey C.
    Infections during pregnancy may occur at any time from the first implantation of the blastocyst to the point at which the mother gives birth and the period surrounding birth. These infections may also harm the fetus or neonate. Since bacterial infections during pregnancy often produce no symptoms, doctors need to remain alert to the possibility of infection and carry out sufficiently careful infective screening [1]. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.

    What is honeymoon rhinitis?
    (Springer International Publishing, 2020) Koçyiğit, Murat; Bayar Muluk, Nuray; Soo, Gordon; Bedrosian, Jeffrey C.
    The ventromedial portion of the spinal trigeminal nucleus, together with the nearby lateral reticular formation in the pons and medulla, is the neuroanatomical regions responsible for sneezing. These areas apparently control several groups of muscles which work together to produce sneezes: those in the pharynx, those within the larynx proper and the muscles of respiration. Sexually induced sneezing is not triggered by irritation of the nasal cavity nor by allergenic stimulation. It may happen at any stage during sex. One term to describe the phenomenon is "honeymoon rhinitis". Honeymoon rhinitis thus refers to the situation where sexual activity leads to nasal symptoms, including sneezing, rhinorrhoea and stuffiness (i.e. congestion). Potentially, honeymoon rhinitis may be present in both males and females for their whole lives, but patient reticence about mentioning bizarre and embarrassing symptoms to their clinician results in under-reporting. Internet chat rooms and forums are often valued for their anonymity, and in such places the symptoms may be more readily disclosed. In this chapter, we presented honeymoon rhinitis. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021.
