Filter by:The purpose of this cross-sectional prospective observational study is to determine the efficacy of high-resolution ultrasonography in identifying and characterizing nasal bone fractures in adult patients with recent facial trauma. The primary questions it aims to answer are: - Can high-resolution ultrasonography effectively detect nasal bone fractures? - Is high-resolution ultrasonography capable of indirectly detecting septal fractures? - What are the specificity and sensitivity of high-resolution ultrasonography in comparison to computed tomography scan? Participants will undergo examination and treatment in accordance with current standards for nasal fracture management. Additionally, high-resolution ultrasonography will be performed during the initial physical examination, preceding any therapeutic interventions.
The goal of this observational study is to compare the effect of Piezo and endonasal osteotomy techniques on the healing process of patients undergoing septorhinoplasty surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - In which osteotomy technique the edema is lesser? - Which osteotomy technique is better for thick vs thin skinned patients ? In which osteotomy technique the healing process is faster? Participants will be asked to have an ultrasonic measurement of the nasal dorsum preoperatively and at the first, third and tenth months postoperatively. Researchers will compare the thick and thin skinned patients to detect which osteotomy technique is superior in the healing process ( lesser edema and faster healing due to skin thickness measurements)
Headache is the most common complaint to neurologists. In the 80´s and 90's few papers, with limited number of patients, have proposed the association between nasal septum contact and headache. The International Classification of Headaches Disorders proposed specific diagnostic criteria for this entity. With the major use of CT scans, the contact between nasal mucosa and septum is daily observed in many patients without complaint of headache. The purpose of this study is to determine if there is any correlation between nasal and septum mucosa contact and the prevalence of headache. The investigators hypothesized that no correlation will be found using CT scans in a large series of patients.
