OBJECTIVES To evaluate whether a low rate of exposure to sinonasal computed tomographic (CT) scans can be achieved when strict criteria are applied for their use in children with cystic fibrosis (CF) and to emphasize the importance of limiting radiation exposure in the context of the current longer
The relationship between cystic fibrosis (CF) and sinus disease has been appreciated since at least 1959. Unfortunately the standard methods used to treat sinus disease have been very unrewarding in the CF patients. We evaluated the long-term results achieved on 17 patients with CF that underwent
BACKGROUND
Pulmonary disease is the most frequent cause of morbidity and mortality in cystc fibrosis patients. New techniques such as non-invasive positive pressure ventilation have resulted in prolongation of life expectancy in CF patients with end-stage lung disease.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the
OBJECTIVE
To determine the effectiveness of paranasal sinus surgery (PSS) for individual symptoms and recurrence of nasal polyposis in children and young adults with cystic fibrosis and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS).
METHODS
Nonrandomized, prospective, clinical trial.
METHODS
Children and young
Symptomatic cluster-like headaches have been described with lesions of the trigeminal and parasympathetic systems. Here, we report the case of a 44-year-old woman with continuous auricular pain and a positional cluster-like headache associated with red ear syndrome. Clinical data and morphological
BACKGROUND
Pain is a common complication in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and is associated with shorter survival. We evaluated the impact of osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) on pain in adults with CF.
METHODS
A pilot multicenter randomized controlled trial was conducted with three
BACKGROUND
Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) is a systemic vasculitis involving the nervous system in 20-54% of cases; lesions of peripheral nerves are commonest, while manifestation in the central nervous system (CNS) is rarer. Focal hypertrophic pachymeningitis is a very rare complication of WG. This
BACKGROUND
Eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis (EAF) is a slowly progressive, benign disease involving the mucosa of the upper airways or, more rarely, the orbit. It belongs to the spectrum of IgG4-related disease.
METHODS
The authors report the case of a 61-year-old man who presented with orbital
The most commonly reported side-effects of recombinant interferon-beta1a and 1b include local inflammatory injection site reactions, headache, fever, myalgia and a flu-like syndrome. In this case report, we describe the occurrence of cutaneous necrosis and dermal fibrosis following intramuscular
A 50-year-old woman with a history of palmoplantar pustulosis, femur osteomyelitis, and sterno-costo-clavicular hyperostosis presented with a chronic severe left temporal headache that had progressed during the previous year. Her CRP level was elevated. Cranial images showed Gadolinium-enhancement
OBJECTIVE
Some children with severe cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease develop chest tightness, recurrent dry cough, and intractable wheeze, often accompanied by deteriorating lung function and failure to expectorate sputum. In an attempt to reduce the use of regular oral corticosteroids, we treated
