    Comparison of Three Tonsillectomy Techniques: Cold Dissection, Monopolar Electrocautery, and Coblation
    (Georg Thieme Verlag Kg, 2023) Kandemir, Suheyla; Pamuk, Ahmet Erim; Ozel, Gokce; Sencan, Ziya
    Introduction Tonsillectomy is among the most common otolaryngological surgeries. Objective To evaluate and compare three tonsillectomy techniques: cold steel dissection (CSD), monopolar electrocautery (MEC), and coblation. Methods The present study retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent tonsillectomy between January 2014 and January 2016. Postoperative visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores, analgesic use, surgical duration, time to return to normal activity, and postoperative bleeding status were noted. Results The CSD group had less analgesic use and shorter return to normal activity than the MEC group ( p =0.037 and p <0.001, respectively). The coblation group had lower VAS pain scores than the MEC group only at 1hour to 4hours postsurgery ( p <0.016). The postoperative bleeding rate was similar in all groups ( p =0.096). Conclusion Cold steel dissection tonsillectomy is associated with less postoperative pain and shorter recovery than MEC. Coblation is better than MEC in terms of postoperative pain at 1hour to 4hours only, whereas CSD is associated with less postoperative pain than coblation at 2 days to 7 days.

    SEPTORİNOPLASTİ YAPILAN HASTALARDA SPREADER GREFT KONULMASININ AMELİYATIN FONKSİYONEL VE ESTETİK SONUÇLARI ÜZERİNE ETKİSİ
    (Kırıkkale Üniversitesi, 2023) Kandemir, Süheyla; Pamuk, Ahmet Erim
    Amaç: Spreader greft konularak ve konulmadan septorinoplasti ameliyatı yapılan hastalarda, ameliyatın fonksiyonel ve estetik sonuçlarının karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmada, 2018-2022 tarihleri arasında septorinoplasti ameliyatı yapılan 52 hasta retrospektif olarak incelendi. Hastalar spreader greft konulanlar (Grup 1, n=30) ve spreader greft konulmayanlar (Grup 2, n=22) olmak üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. Hastaların fonksiyonel ve estetik sonuçları ameliyat öncesi ve ameliyat sonrası burun tıkanıklığı semptom değerlendirme ölçeği (NOSE), sinonazal sonuç testi-22 (SNOT-22) ve yüz görünümünden memnuniyet (FACE-Q) ölçeği ile değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Gruplar arasında yaş ve cinsiyet açısından anlamlı bir farklılık saptanmadı. Her iki grupta da ameliyat sonrası NOSE ve SNOT-22 skorları, ameliyat öncesi skorlara kıyasla, anlamlı düzeyde düşük idi (p

    Skull base osteomyelitis: Comprehensive analysis and a new clinicoradiological classification system
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2021) Ozer, Furkan; Pamuk, Ahmet Erim; Atay, Gamze; Parlak, Safak; Yucel, Taskun
    Objective: Skull baseosteomyelitis (SBO) is a rare phenomenon that typically occurs in diabetic or immunocompromised patients, causing significant morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to analyze a single institution's treatment results in SBO patients and propose anew integrated clinicoradiological classification system. Methods: The medical records of 32 SBO patients that were treated at a tertiary care center between 2006 and 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. A scoring system based on anatomical involvement according to MRI was created. Subsequently, the scoring system was integrated with cranial nerve dysfunction status and a clinical grading system (CGS) was proposed. Results: Among the 32 patients, 78.1% were diabetic and 63% had cranial nerve dysfunction at presentation. Bone erosion based on CT was greater in the patients without regression (P = 0.046). The regression rate decreased from clinical grade (CG)1 to CG3 (P = 0.029). Duration of hospitalization increased as CG increased (P = 0.047). Surgery had no effect on regression status at the time of discharge (P = 0.41). The 1-year, 2-year, and 5-year overall survival rates were 82.2%, 70.8%, and 45.8%, respectively. CG was significantly correlated with overall survival but not with disease-specific survival (log-rank; P = 0.017, P = 0.362, respectively). Conclusion: SBO continues to pose a challenge to clinicians, and causes significant morbidity and mortality. The proposed new classification system can be an option for grouping SBO patients according to clinical and radiological findings, helping clinicians estimate prognosis.
