Reduction of Bilateral Anterior Table Frontal Sinus Fractures Using Balloon Sinus Dilation Catheters: A Case Report

Andrew Petersen, Fariha Farid, Richard Klapchar, Sumit Bapna and Boris Karanfilov

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: December 03, 2016

We report the use of multiple balloon sinus dilation (BSD) catheters in the reduction of bilateral anterior table frontal sinus fractures in a 13-year-old male following sports injury. This case is unique in that it displays a less-invasive surgical correction of anterior table frontal sinus fractures using a new surgical tool and follows the literature-supported trend towards sinus preservation. More extensive frontal sinus fractures with severe comminution or displaced posterior table fracture...

Laryngeal Tuberculosis: About 3 Cases from Morocco

Abou-elfadl M, Benzaouia A, Abada R, Rouadi S, Roubal M and Mahtar M

Article Type: Clinical Study | First Published: December 03, 2016

The laryngeal tuberculosis incidence decreased significantly since the development of antituberculosis drugsand early detection of new cases. Currently, it represents less than 1% of cases of extrathoracic tuberculosis. As tuberculosis is endemic in Morocco, we continue to see this rare localization. Its clinical presentation is atypical and endoscopic aspects are polymorphic, hence the difficulty of diagnostic. The aim of the study is to report three different observations of the laryngeal loca...

Killian-Jamieson Diverticulum: A Case Report and Argument for Transcervical Diverticulectomy

Susannah Orzell, Todd Falcone and Gregory Grillone

Article Type: Clinical Study | First Published: October 05, 2016

Killian-Jamieson Diverticulum (KJD) is a rare type of cervical esophageal diverticulum. It originates inferior to the cricopharyngeal muscle and lateral to the longitudinal muscle of the esophagus, and is closely associated with the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN). We report a case of KJD in a 78-year-old man treated with an open diverticulectomy with a nerve integrity monitor (NIM), and present a comprehensive literature review....
