    Abstract Different inflammatory endotypes reflect the heterogeneity of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps' (CRSwNPs) clinical presentation. This retrospective study aimed to analyze the distribution of polyps in nasal cavities and paranasal sinuses to establish a possible association between CRSwNP endotypes, prognosis, and polyps' extension. This study included 449 adult patients who underwent endoscopic sinus surgery for CRSwNPs between 2009 and 2022. Patients were categorized based on the number of paranasal sinuses involved by polyps. Statistical analyses, including Cox regression, were performed to identify associations between demographic, clinical, and histopathological factors and disease recurrence. CRSwNP patients were stratified into four groups based on the extent of polyp involvement. Asthma and acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) sensitivity were associated with more sinuses involved (

    Abstract Vestibular schwannomas can be treated in different ways, but for symptomatic or growing tumors, the gold standard is surgical removal of the lesion. In order to preserve neurovascular structures, partial removal is often performed, leaving a residual that may grow in subsequent years. To date, there is no consensus with regard to surgical treatment of vestibular schwannoma residuals, and so this review focuses on this topic. A structured search was performed on PubMed searching for all articles discussing vestibular schwannoma residuals and recurrences. Only articles discussing surgical treatment were included, focusing on studies which also examined facial nerve outcomes. A total of 51 articles were eligible for review and these included 375 patients. Statistical analysis was performed by correlating the following parameters: patients' gender and age at first surgery, surgical approach adopted at first and subsequent surgeries, tumor and residual size, and extent of resection (gross total, near total, subtotal or others) at first and subsequent surgical procedures. Facial nerve function was also analyzed focusing on its performance when correlated with the different surgical approaches. The data were analyzed by linear regression but there were no correlations between any of the parameters chosen. There was a statistically significant difference between the first approach used (mainly the retrosigmoid route) compared with subsequent approaches (mainly the translabyrinthine route). In total, 8.5 % of patients needed further treatment due to residual regrowth. Facial nerve outcome was independent of the parameters chosen. Exclusive surgical treatment for vestibular schwannoma residuals had a very low failure rate in terms of requiring further treatment. The approach usually chosen for second surgery was the translabyrinthine technique, and this may be explained by the location of the residual, rather than its size. The choice of a particular surgical approach rather than another had no influence on facial nerve function. Complications rates are comparable to Gamma Knife Radiosurgery's as reported in the literature.

    Abstract With unrelenting SARS-CoV-2 variants, additional COVID-19 mitigation strategies are needed. Oral and nasal saline irrigation (SI) is a traditional approach for respiratory infections/diseases. As a multidisciplinary network with expertise/experience with saline, we conducted a narrative review to examine mechanisms of action and clinical outcomes associated with nasal SI, gargling, spray, or nebulization in COVID-19. SI was found to reduce SARS-CoV-2 nasopharyngeal loads and hasten viral clearance. Other mechanisms may involve inhibition of viral replication, bioaerosol reduction, improved mucociliary clearance, modulation of ENaC, and neutrophil responses. Prophylaxis was documented adjunctive to personal protective equipment. COVID-19 patients experienced significant symptom relief, while overall data suggest lower hospitalization risk. We found no harm and hence recommend SI use, as safe, inexpensive, and easy-to-use hygiene measure, complementary to hand washing or mask-wearing. In view of mainly small studies, large well-controlled or surveillance studies can help to further validate the outcomes and to implement its use.

    Abstract Background: Tonsillectomy and adenotonsillectomy are surgical procedures routinely performed worldwide, with various complications, including postoperative bleeding (PTH). Among haemostatic agents, bismuth subgallate (BS) has been employed in the past decades, but its use is controversial in children.
    Objective: This retrospective, multicentre study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of BS in preventing PTH following tonsillectomy and adenotonsillectomy.
    Materials and methods: Two cohorts of children between 0 and 18 years of age were compared in two different hospitals. The first (active) group of patients included children who underwent tonsillectomy/adenotonsillectomy performed using BS added to gauze swabs, whereas this agent was not administered to the second (control) group. The following variables were analysed: age, gender, degree of tonsillar hyperplasia, length of hospital stay, acute complications (including bleeding and infection), further admissions to the Paediatric Emergency Department (PED), and further hospital admissions in the 30 days postoperatively.
    Results: Four-thousand- seven hundred forty-four children were included in the study, 2598 in the active group and 2146 in the control group. The cases included in the active treatment group displayed a significantly reduced PTH prevalence, 1.4 versus 2.6 % (p < 0.05). No cases of neurological complications or aspiration pneumonia were detected.
    Conclusions: This study supports BS as a safe and reliable option for preventing severe PTH following tonsillectomy/adenotonsillectomy.
