    A new preservation technique for dehumping the dorsum
    (Verduci Publisher, 2023) Azizli, E.; Muluk, Nuray Bayar; Dündar, R.; Cingi, C.
    OBJECTIVE: We aimed to offer a new preservation strategy for dehumping the dorsum by using a variation of the cartilage push- down ( Ishida) technique. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Three hundred patients (42 males and 258 females) had surgical procedures. All procedures were closed- surgery-type, primary-case procedures performed through a closed incision. Low cartilaginous septal strip resection was performed on 269 individuals, whereas high septal strip resection was performed on the remaining 31 patients. The bony cap is shielded as a separate unit and preserved, so protected from any potential damage. The cartilage roof is separated from the bone roof and lowered while wearing the bony cap component. As a result, less concealment is required. However, it is ineffective on dorsal profiles that are sharp or S-shaped, as opposed to flat. Thus, the modified cartilage push-down with bony cap rasping procedure can be carried out. The sharp hump on the bony crown of the skull is smoothed out and filled. Therefore, the bony cap above the central cartilage roof is much thinner. Because the hump is less likely to appear again, concealment is unnecessary. A median of 8.5 months was spent following-up (6-14 months). RESULTS: According to our method, among men (n=42), the hump size ranged from minor (n=5) to medium (n=25) to big (n=12). There were 258 women, 88 of whom had a little hump, 160 had a medium hump, and 10 had a huge hump. Indicative of surgeon satisfaction with low cartilaginous septal strip excision vs. high septal strip resection include the following: with a total of 269 patients, 35 males, and 234 females had low cartilaginous septal strip resections, with 98 and 96% success rates, respectively, for the surgeons. There were 31 patients, seven men and 24 women, who all underwent high septal strip resections, with a 98% and 96% success rate for the surgeons. It was found that there was a correlation between the size of the hump and the level of satisfaction felt by its bearers. Rates of male satisfaction with humps ranged from 100% for little humps to 100% for medium humps to 99% for huge humps. Satisfaction percentages among women ranged from 98% in the case of little humps to 96% among medium humps and 95% among large humps. CONCLUSIONS: O ur t echnique o f m odification of the cartilage push-down (Ishida)1 method is applied for dehumping the dorsum. High satisfaction percentages were obtained from the patients and surgeons. This technique may be a good option for patients who need dehumping.

    The importance of Epley maneuver in posterior canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo
    (Verduci Editore s.r.l, 2024) Öztürk, Z.; Muluk, N. Bayar; Dündar, R.; Cingi, C.
    – OBJECTIVE: We investigated symptom scores and quality of life in unilateral posterior canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this retrospective and multicentric study, 78 patients with unilateral posterior canal BPPV (47 right-sided and 31 left-sided) were included. All patients have performed the Standard Epley maneuver. Features of the nystagmus [nystagmus duration (second), latent period (second)] and features of the disease [side (right or left-sided), disease duration (years), and recurrence of disease (present or absent)] were noted. Before and 1 week after the Epley maneuver, all patients were evaluated using the Vertigo Symptom Scale (VSS), Vertigo Dizziness Imbalance Symptom Scale (VDI-SS), and Vertigo Dizziness Imbalance health-related quality of life scale (VDI-HQoL). RESULTS: Our results showed that VSSs of the right-sided group were significantly higher than those in the left-sided group before and 1 week after the maneuver (p<0.05). One week after the maneuver, VDI-HQoLs of the left-sided group were significantly higher than those in the right-sided group (p<0.05). In all right-sided and left-sided groups, at 1 week after the maneuver, VSSs were significantly lower, and VDI-SSs and VDI-HQoLs were significantly higher than those before the maneuver (p<0.05). As VSS values increased, VDI-SS and VDI-HQoL values decreased (p<0.05). In the left-sided group, VSS values decreased, and VDI-HQoL values increased. As disease duration increased, VSS values increased before the maneuver (p<0.05). In females, VSS values increased, and VDI-SS and VDI-HQoL values decreased before the maneuver (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In posterior canal BPPV, the Epley maneuver effectively decreased VSS values and increased VDI-SS and VDI-HQoL values. In the left-sided BPPV group, there were lower VSS values and higher VDI-HQoL values that showed better quality of life of the patients. Older age and female gender are other factors related to lower quality of life with higher symptom scores. © 2024 Verduci Editore s.r.l. All rights reserved.
