AbstractAcoustic rhinometry is a new method which describes the geometry of the nasal cavity and the epipharynx. The method, based on the reflection of an acoustic signal entered into the nasal cavity, can be used to evaluate the cross-sectional area of the nasal cavity asa function of distance from the nostril. The method has, together with nasal expiratory peak flow (NPF) and nasal index based upon a self assessment score, been used to evaluate, in an objective and dynamic way, the effect of systemic treatment of nasal polyps with steroids in a series of eight patients with recurrent nasal polyposis. The study shows a significant relationship between these three parameters before and after systemic treatment of nasal polyps with steroids. It is concluded that in this study acoustic rhinometry had an accurate and objective method for measuring the geometry of the nasal cavity before and after treatment for processes which block the nasal cavity.

<p>Primary mucosal melanoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses is a very aggressive and rare disease with only about 0.5 % of malignant melanoma arising from the nasal cavity. There are only few reports from India. We report a rare case of sino-nasal mucosal malignant melanoma in a 58 years old female who presented with blackish coloured sino-nasal mass involving right nasal cavity, spontaneous and recurrent epistaxis and obliteration of the right naso-labial fold with occasional pain in the past 10 months. Contrast enhanced computed tomography scan showed a heterogenous mass involving right nasal cavity, right maxillary antrum and right ethmoidal area. A positron emission tomography computed tomography was also done which showed increased uptake in the region mentioned above. Initial biopsy, the mass was diagnosed as malignant melanoma. Total maxillectomy was performed with plan of post-operative radiotherapy.</p>

Yorkshire Terrier

SummaryAn inflammatory periorbital cyst with secondary pressure atrophy of the maxilla was treated by surgical creation of a drainage opening to the nasal cavity in a 4-year-old Yorkshire Terrier. Following treatment, clinical signs resolved and computed tomography 5 weeks after surgery confirmed the permanence of the drainage opening. Eight months later, the dog showed no clinical abnormalities. Therefore, the procedure described in this report may offer a suitable treatment option in cases where the cyst’s size or localization prevents complete excision.
