An x-ray of the soft tissues of the neck can be useful for diagnosing various conditions. The presence of air in the prevertebral space indicates a dilated esophagus. In children, this suggests achalasia as the cause of esophageal dilation, while in adults it typically indicates a malignant stricture that is causing proximal dilation of the esophagus. The x-ray finding of air in the prevertebral space consistently indicates an enlarged esophagus.

Airway inubation difficulties
This document discusses difficult airways and how to anticipate them. A difficult airway is defined as difficulty with face mask ventilation, laryngoscopy, or endotracheal intubation. There are several factors that can indicate a difficult airway, such as breathing issues, swallowing problems, voice changes, Mallampati score, limited mouth opening, and short thyromental distance. The Cormack-Lehane grade is used to evaluate laryngeal views during intubation. Common causes of difficult airways include lesions, masses, scarring, anatomical abnormalities, and cervical spine issues. Careful patient evaluation using tools like X-rays can help identify risks pre-operatively to be prepared in case of a difficult air
Anatomical variations in nose & pns
Anatomical variations in the nose and paranasal sinuses are common and important for surgeons to be aware of. Even the two sides of the nose may not be symmetrical. Certain variations like a pneumatized middle turbinate or concha bullosa can narrow the nasal passages or sinus openings. A large agger nasi cell or pneumatized uncinate process can also cause narrowing. It is important surgeons understand these variations to prevent complications and allow for complete and successful functional endoscopic sinus surgery. While some research suggests multiple anatomical variations may increase risk of sinus infection, this relationship is not definitively proven.
Stroboscopy larynx
This document discusses various vocal cord lesions that can be identified using stroboscopy. It includes images and descriptions of phonatory gaps, vocal nodules, intra cordal cysts, laryngeal papillomas, vocal cord polyps, subglottic masses, laryngeal tuberculosis, scleroma, Reinke's edema, sulcus vocalis, fungal laryngitis, laryngeal trauma, dysplasia, carcinoma, laryngeal webs, and provides a thank you and disclaimer at the end.
Endotracheal intubation &; its complications
Endotracheal intubation is performed for general anesthesia, assisted ventilation, securing the airway, and cardio pulmonary resuscitation. With improved critical care and survival, complications of intubation are becoming more evident. Complications can be prevented by proper tube care, selecting the proper tube size, and ensuring proper tube position in the airway. Prolonged intubation over 5-7 days may require tracheostomy. Improper tube position can cause mucosal trauma and injury to the vocal cords or arytenoids, resulting in stenosis. Any voice changes or breathing difficulties after extubation should be evaluated by an ENT surgeon.
Presbyphonia aging & voice
This document discusses presbyphonia, which is an aging-related change in voice quality. As people age, the soft tissues of the larynx atrophy, reducing vocal fold tone and elasticity. Pulmonary function also declines with age, further impacting the voice. Clinically, presbyphonia presents with changes in pitch and intensity, decreased phonation time, vocal instability and tremor, breathiness, and vocal fatigue. Stroboscopy findings include bowed or concave vocal folds, glottic insufficiency, asymmetric vocal fold movement, and compensatory tremors. Treatment focuses on counseling, voice therapy, and exercises to improve breath support, as well as injection laryngoplasty or medialization thyro

Endotracheal intubation, indications, complications.
ET intubation is preferred over tracheotomy for establishing an artificial airway when the need is brief (10 days or less) and full recovery is expected. ET intubation involves placing an endotracheal tube into the trachea through the mouth or nose to relieve airway obstruction, protect the airway from aspiration, facilitate suctioning of secretions, or support ventilation. Complications can occur during intubation, while the tube remains in place, during extubation, or after extubation and include trauma, aspiration, laryngospasm, and edema.
Fungal laryngitis
Fungal laryngitis should be suspected in refractory cases.This is seen in immuno compromised as well as immuno competent cases.It mimics leucoplakia, or malignancy.

Csf rhinorrhoea endoscopic repair
A 48-year-old female presented with a spontaneous watery discharge from her left nostril for 2 months. Tests showed a cribriform plate leak that was repaired endoscopically. The procedure involved infiltrating and lifting the left nasal concha to create a medial flap, exposing the meningocele, bipolarizing and cauterizing the area, using fat grafts to close the dural defect in layers, and repositioning a mucosal graft. A 62-year-old male who sustained a head injury was also treated endoscopically for a CSF leak from the left sphenoid sinus shown on imaging. Both patients received postoperative antibiotics and acetazolamide.
Fracture neck Femur-Comedy Of Errors
A 75-year-old female presented with occasional right hip pain and an x-ray showed an incomplete fracture of the neck of the femur. She underwent fixation with three Knowles pins which was later complicated by a subtrochanteric extension fracture following a fall. The fracture was then fixed with a dynamic hip screw and interfragmentary screws, but she continued having pain and the plate eventually failed. She later underwent reconstruction nailing to address the nonunion. The key lessons learned were to avoid leaving empty holes in the bone, entering below the lesser trochanter during multiple pinning, relying solely on interfragmentary screws for subtrochanteric fractures, and not waiting until plate failure is evident before revising

Paediatric radiography
Paediatric radiography requires special techniques and considerations due to children's developing cognitive abilities and need for trust and comfort. The technologist's friendly introduction and clear explanation of the procedure helps build rapport. Immobilization devices like boards and straps help reduce motion blur while sandbags, tape and towels can also immobilize. Technologists minimize radiation dose through high mA, short exposures and shielding gonads when possible. Clear communication between technologist and parents helps each understand their role in supporting the child.

It is often needed to bypass airway obstructions caused by tumors, infections, injuries or swelling. Other indications include prolonged intubation, neuromuscular diseases impairing breathing, and as a precaution before certain head and neck surgeries. Care of the tracheostomy tube involves dressing changes, humidification, suctioning, cleaning and monitoring cuff pressure. Complications can include bleeding, pneumothorax, tube obstruction/displacement, tracheomalacia and stenosis. Careful assessment is required before decannulation to ensure airway patency and respiratory function have been restored.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
