    Infections of Congenital Neck Masses
    (Springer International Publishing, 2021) Yücedağ, Fatih; Muluk, Nuray Bayar; Kopacheva-Barsova, Gabriela
    Congenital masses of the head and neck already exist by the time the child is born, but they may pass unrecognised up to the point when they later cause a problem [1]. A child with a noticeable neck mass may present perinatally or in a paediatric general clinic. Taking a detailed history and noting the features of the lesion leads to a targeted list of potential diagnoses, at which point the case may be referred to an appropriate specialist with expertise in managing head and neck masses. These lesions develop through anomalous embryological development processes and may be of cystic, solid or vascular type. Typically they present when infection develops. Such lesions may be neoplasms; however, this is rarely the case. Indeed, lesions of the head and neck represent a mere 5% of all cancers encountered in childhood [2]. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.

    Management of Full-Thickness Nasal Defects
    (Springer International Publishing, 2019) Ipci, Kagan; Muluk, Nuray Bayar; Kopacheva-Barsova, Gabriela
    The nose is one of the most noticeable parts of the face, and reconstruction encompasses modifications that are not well hidden. The three-dimensional protrusion of the nose affords only small structural alterations to reduce any complications. Therefore, restoration of an imperfection is challenging due to the aforementioned reasons. Surgery consultation comprises of the malformation assessment as well as an open dialogue with the patient about any apprehensiveness or specific questions about the procedure or end result. Numerous features must be considered for the reconstruction process, including color, texture, contouring, and functionality. For small (<1.5 cm) zone 1 defects, there are multiple options. For large ones, a forehead flap is useful for the dorsal and sidewall subunits. For the sidewall, a melolabial flap is a good choice. Zone 2 defects may be complex to repair due to the nasal tip prominence. The skin grafting is difficult and mostly acquired from the forehead or adjacent area. Bilobed flaps, full-thickness grafts from the forehead can be used. For larger defects in zone 3, there are many options of reconstruction. The radial forearm flap is commonly used and is based on the radial artery and vein as well as some soft tissue. This method can be used to restructure the nasal coating or for a total reconstruction. In this chapter, management of full-thickness nasal defects is presented. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020.

    Paediatric rhinitis and rhinosinusitis
    (Springer International Publishing, 2020) Salcan, Ismail; Bayar Muluk, Nuray; Kopacheva-Barsova, Gabriela
    Rhinitis may be defined as an inflammatory condition affecting the upper airways in which rhinorrhoea, nasal congestion or sneezing (or any combination thereof) has been present a minimum of 2 days in a row and lasts for at least 1 h on the majority of those days. The Allergic Rhinitis and Its Impact on Asthma (ARIA) guideline distinguishes two categories of rhinitis: allergic rhinitis (AR) and non-allergic rhinitis (NAR). The differentiating feature between these conditions is whether allergic sensitisation has taken place (i.e. AR) or not (NAR). The pathophysiology of AR depends on IgE, and it is usual for ocular pruritus, indicating conjunctivitis, to be present as an additional presenting feature. Rhinitis frequently occurs in children and adolescents. It is commonplace to dismiss the significant morbidity associated with the condition by viewing rhinitis as a self-limited coryzal illness. However, sternutation, pruritus, watery nasal discharge and nasal congestion are distressing for patients. The presentation in childhood and adolescence may also be atypical, with coughing or snoring. Rhinitis has an adverse effect on biopsychosocial well-being. In this chapter, paediatric rhinitis and rhinosinusitis are reviewed in all aspects. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021.
