Epistaxis01:30

Epistaxis

Epistaxis, or nosebleeds, occurs when small, swollen blood vessels in the nasal mucous membrane rupture. Typically, the anterior septum is the primary site of occurrence.
Etiology
Possible causes of this condition include high blood pressure, trauma, low humidity, upper respiratory tract infections, allergies, foreign bodies, nasal inhalation of corticosteroids or illicit drugs, excessive use of decongestant nasal sprays, facial or nasal surgery, anatomic malformation, tumors, or systemic...
Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway01:29

Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway

Nasopharyngeal suctioning is a procedure to remove secretions from the upper part of the respiratory tract that the patient cannot clear independently. It helps maintain airway patency and prevents complications such as aspiration pneumonia.

Tonsillitis II: Management

This lesson will focus on the different treatment options for managing tonsillitis, which typically depend on the cause and severity.
Anatomy of Respiratory System I: Upper Respiratory Tract01:29

Anatomy of Respiratory System I: Upper Respiratory Tract

The upper respiratory tract plays a vital role in the respiratory system, comprising several structures that facilitate air intake and prepare air for the lungs. It also serves as the first line of defense against pathogens and particles. This tract includes the nose and nasal cavity, the oral cavity, the paranasal sinuses, and the pharynx, each with specific functions and features.
Nose and nasal cavity
The nose and nasal cavity represent the main external openings of the respiratory tract.
Nose and Nasal Cavity01:24

Nose and Nasal Cavity

The nose is composed of an observable exterior segment (external nose) and an internal segment within the skull known as the nasal cavity (internal nose). The external nose, visible on the face, consists of a framework of bone and hyaline cartilage enveloped in skin and muscle and lined with a mucous membrane. This structure is supported by the frontal bone, nasal bones, and maxillary bone and is supplemented by a cartilaginous framework comprising the septal nasal cartilage, lateral nasal...
Administering Oxygen by Nasal Cannula01:29

Administering Oxygen by Nasal Cannula

Oxygen therapy is critical to patient care, especially for those struggling with respiratory issues. This intervention increases the oxygen concentration in the lungs, enhancing the amount of oxygen transported to the body's tissues. One standard method of delivering supplemental oxygen is through a nasal cannula, a non-invasive device that provides low to medium oxygen concentrations.
Nasal Cannulas
A nasal cannula is a lightweight tube split into two prongs placed in the nostrils, connected...

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Endoscopic sinonasal surgery is the primary treatment for sinonasal pathology.
  • Complications, though infrequent, can be severe due to the anatomical proximity of the sinonasal region to the orbit, skull base, and carotid arteries.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the types of endoscopic sinonasal surgeries.
  • To detail the mechanisms of injury, clinical presentation, and imaging findings of surgical complications.
  • To highlight anatomical variants that increase surgical risk and should be noted on preoperative imaging.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of endoscopic sinonasal surgery complications.
  • Analysis of injury mechanisms, clinical signs, symptoms, and imaging features.
  • Review of anatomical variations relevant to surgical risk.

Main Results:

  • Complications can involve the orbit, skull base, and major vessels.
  • Early recognition of signs and symptoms is crucial for management.
  • Preoperative identification of anatomical variants by radiologists can mitigate risks.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding potential complications and anatomical risks is vital for safe endoscopic sinonasal surgery.
  • Radiologists play a key role in preoperative assessment to identify risk factors.
  • Multidisciplinary awareness improves patient outcomes in sinonasal surgery.
