Nose and Nasal Cavity01:24

Nose and Nasal Cavity

17.3K
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...

Cranial Bones: Lateral View01:27

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

8.3K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Peptic Ulcer01:27

Peptic Ulcer

38
Peptic ulcers are erosive lesions of the gastric or duodenal lining, most commonly caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. This Gram-negative, helical bacterium has adapted to survive the stomach’s acidic environment by producing urease, which converts urea into ammonia and carbon dioxide. The ammonia neutralizes gastric acid in the bacterium’s immediate environment, allowing colonization of the gastric mucosa. H. pylori attaches to mucus-secreting epithelial cells, penetrates the...

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Dermatology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Nasal septal ulceration presents a diagnostic challenge due to its varied etiologies.
  • Consultation between ENT surgeons and dermatologists is crucial for accurate diagnosis.
  • Common causes include infections, vasculitis, and autoimmune conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the differential diagnoses of nasal septal ulceration.
  • To highlight the importance of a systematic diagnostic approach.
  • To emphasize the need for multidisciplinary management.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of causes of nasal septal ulceration.
  • Analysis of diagnostic workup and investigations.
  • Discussion of treatment modalities.

Main Results:

  • Infections (tuberculosis, leprosy, leishmaniasis), vasculitis (Wegener's, Churg-Strauss), and lupus erythematosus are common causes.
  • Trauma and malignancy are considered in tertiary centers.
  • Chronic cases may indicate lymphoma, requiring specific investigations.

Conclusions:

  • Accurate diagnosis of nasal septal ulceration requires a comprehensive evaluation by specialists.
  • A multidisciplinary approach is essential for managing the condition and its cosmetic sequelae.
