RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
Presentation1.pptx, radiological anatomy of the petrous bone.
1. Dr/ ABD ALLAH NAZEER. MD.
Radiological anatomy of the petrous bone.
2. Normal Anatomy of the Middle Ear
The temporal bone houses and is surrounded by many vital structures.
The temporal bone is actually composed of four bones, consisting of the
squamous, petrous, tympanic, and mastoid segments.
The bony framework of the temporal bone contains multiple air spaces.
The most complex of these spaces is the middle ear cavity, or tympanum.
The middle ear space is shaped somewhat in the form of a red blood cell
stood on end. This space is narrow in a medial-lateral direction and more
elongated anteroposteriorly and superoinferiorly.
Laterally, the tympanic membrane, annulus, and the handle of the malleus
make up the wall of the tympanum. The inner ear forms the medial wall of
the middle ear. The largest anatomic structure of the medial wall is the
promontory of the cochlea.
The roof of the middle ear space is formed by the tegmen tympani. This
structure separates the middle ear space from the middle cranial fossa.
The tegmen slopes inferiorly as it courses laterally along the temporal
bone; remember this point during mastoidectomy to avoid violating the
tegmen with the drill. In addition, the tegmen is located higher than the
superior border of the tympanic membrane, forming a space, the
epitympanum. The epitympanum houses the head of the malleus and the
body and short process of the incus.
3. The floor of the middle ear is primarily composed of the bone covering the
jugular bulb. The bone over the bulb may be dehiscent, rendering it more
susceptible to injury. The floor of the middle ear cavity is located further
inferiorly than the lowest extent of the tympanic membrane, creating a
space, the hypotympanum.
Anteriorly and inferiorly, the carotid artery limits the tympanum. More
superiorly, the eustachian tube, tensor tympani, and cochleariform
process can be observed along the anterior margin of the middle ear.
The mastoid air cells lie immediately posterior to the middle ear space.
The entrance to the mastoid air cells is the aditus ad antrum. The
pyramidal eminence (giving rise to the stapedius tendon) and the incudal
fossa can also be observed immediately posterior to the middle ear space.
The middle ear space contains several spaces of clinical significance. The
sinus tympani is located between the labyrinthine wall and the pyramidal
eminence. This area is a common site for recurrence of cholesteatoma.
The facial recess is found between the tympanic annulus and pyramidal
eminence. This recess provides improved access to the middle ear space
during a tympanomastoidectomy.
4. Normal Anatomy of the Inner Ear
The inner ear is housed in the bony labyrinth, which is well
demonstrated on CT scans. The cochlea lies anteriorly. The cochlea is
a conical structure, with its apex pointed anteriorly, inferiorly, and
laterally; its base rests near the internal auditory canal and extends
outward for 2.5-2.75 turns. Immediately anterior to the cochlea is
the carotid artery. The round window is located in the scala tympani
of the basal turn of the cochlea. The round window niche houses the
round window. This window is the termination of the scala tympani
of the cochlea. The niche protects the round window from direct
exposure to sound waves in the event of a tympanic membrane
perforation.
The vestibule lies posterior to the cochlea, abutting the internal
auditory canal medially. The stapes footplate transmits vibrations to
the vestibule at the oval window. The 3 semicircular canals emanate
from the vestibule. The lateral canal lies 30° from horizontal. The 3
canals lie at right angles to each other.
5. The endolymphatic sac is posteromedial to the semicircular
canals on the posterior margin of the petrous bone. The
seventh and eighth cranial nerves (CN VII and CN VIII) course
through the internal auditory canal. CN VIII enters the
structures of the inner ear to innervate them and CN VII passes
laterally and anteriorly to the geniculate ganglion, then
posteriorly along the medial wall of the tympanum before
heading inferiorly to the stylomastoid foramen.
A retrospective CT-scan study by Saxby et al found the rate of
semicircular canal dehiscence in pediatric patients to be
significantly lower than rates found in previous studies. The
study involved 334 children (649 temporal bones), with
temporal bone imaging revealing superior canal dehiscence in
3.3% of patients (1.7% of temporal bones) and posterior canal
dehiscence in 2.1% of patients (1.2% of temporal bones).
6. Radiographic positions of mastoids
The mastoid process is a part of the temporal bone which is also comprised of tympanic,
petrous and squamous parts. Accordingly, examination of the mastoid can be possible
using the following projections:
Law view: The X-ray beam is directed at a 15 degree oblique plain cephalocaudally while
the skull's sagittal plane is parallel to the X-ray film.
Law view: The X-ray beam is directed at a 15 degree oblique plain
cephalocaudally while the skull's sagittal plane is parallel to the X-ray film.
7. Stenver's view: It is also called an Axio-anterior oblique posterior view. The X-ray
beam is directed at a 14 degree angle caudally and the head faces the film with
slight flexion and rotation at an angle of 45 degrees to the opposite side.
8. Transorbital view: (posterioanterior and anteroposterior): The X-ray
beam is directed either postero anteriorly or anteroposteriorly along
the orbito-meatal line at a 90 degree angle to the film.
9. Town's view: It is an anteroposterior view with a 30 degree fronto-occipital axial tilt.
It helps in visualization of the temporal bones of, arcuate eminence, mastoid antrum,
superior semicircular canal, internal auditory meatus, cochlea and external auditory
meatus. It is also valuable in the diagnosis of apical petrositis and acoustic neuroma.
10. Axial anatomy from inferior to superior
At the most inferior level we see the facial nerve passing inferiorly to
finally reach the stylomastoid foramen (not shown in this image).
The carotid artery is shown within the carotid canal.
Also at this level is the top of the jugular bulb.
Coronal anatomy
The petrous bone is positioned in an oblique orientation from
posterolateral to anteromedial.
As a result most structures will be sectioned obliquely on coronal
images.
The following coronal images go from anterior to posterior.
First we will see the tympanic membrane with the ossicles, followed
by the cochlea, antrum and semicircular canals.
Finally the most posterior image will show the point where the facial
nerve exits the temporal bone at the stylomastoid foramen.

51. The internal auditory canal:
- Has three parts: the internal acoustic meatus (medial opening), the
canal (an average of 8 mm) and the fundus, of irregular shape
(modulates the passage of the VII and VIII cranial nerves).
- Nervous contents: the facial nerve (the largest in size) and the
cochleo-vestibular nerve that divides into the cochlear nerve and the
vestibular nerve which further divides itself into the superior
(innervates the utricle and the ampulla of the superior and lateral
SCC), and the inferior branches (innervates the saccule and the
ampulla of the posterior SCC).
The singular nerve (or the posterior ampullary nerve) has its proper
canal, the singular canal, in the postero-inferior quadrant of the
fundus that can be often be observed with 3T imaging.
- Vascular content: arterial by the labyrinthine artery and venous
with three drainage pathways (internal auditory vein, vein of
cochlear aqueduct and vein of vestibular aqueduct).
