Abstract

Objective:

To evaluate the curative effect of the treatment of chronic hypertrophic rhinitis with Nd:YAG laser under nasal endoscope.

Method:

Fifty-seven patients with chronic hypertrophic rhinitis were treated with Nd:YAG laser operation under nasal endoscope at our outpatient clinic. Some factors affecting operation effect were discussed.

Result:

In all patients, 10 cases (17.5%) were cured, 16 cases (28.1%) significantly improved, 28 cases (49.1%) improved, 3 cases (5.3%) unimproved and the total effective rate was 94.7%. No complication happened.

Conclusion:

Compared with the partial middle or inferior turbinectomy and YAG laser surgery without nasal endoscope. This technique has several advantages such as less damage, less hemorrhage, clear and clean operation field, easy to operate and so on.

Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment

Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment

Angle-closure glaucoma, or closed-angle glaucoma, is an eye condition where the iris bulges out and blocks the iridocorneal angle, resulting in a buildup of aqueous humor and increased intraocular pressure. Immediate medical attention is necessary due to the sudden onset of symptoms. The treatment for angle-closure glaucoma includes short-term and long-term approaches. Short-term treatment involves using eye drops like pilocarpine to lower intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous humor...

Chronic Pharyngitis

Chronic Pharyngitis

Chronic pharyngitis refers to persistent inflammation of the pharyngial mucosa.
Etiology
It often arises from persistent viral or bacterial infections affecting sinuses and tonsils.
Additional contributing factors include inadequate dental hygiene, mouth breathing, recurring tonsillitis, allergic rhinitis, laryngopharyngeal reflux, and exposure to smoke, chemicals, and other environmental pollutants. Allergic reactions to pollen, mold, and pet dander, chronic cough, excessive voice usage,...

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment

In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.
Drugs such as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, α2- and...
