OBJECTIVE
To demonstrate the importance of detailed, multidisciplinary examination of patients with post-tonsillectomy taste distortions, and to show that post-tonsillectomy dysgeusia may originate in the caudal part of the soft palate.
METHODS
We describe a 29-year-old man who suffered from severe
Between 4% and 14% of patients with intestinal Crohn's disease (CD) may manifest the typical oral changes of this disorder. These changes include labial and intraoral inflammatory tissue hyperplasia with fissuring ("cobblestoning") and swelling. In addition, angular cheilitis and regional
We present a case of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome (CCS) in which the entire intestine was observed using a prototype of magnifying single-balloon enteroscope (SIF Y-0007, Olympus). CCS is a rare, non-familial gastrointestinal polyposis with ectodermal abnormalities. To our knowledge, this is the first
UNASSIGNED
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic tissue destructive inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) of autoimmune origin characterized by predominant bowel symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea and relapsing and remitting rectal bleeding, leading to loss of weight. Extraintestinal
OBJECTIVE
Persistent taste disturbance is a rare complication after tonsillectomy and mainly documented by case reports or a few retrospective and prospective trials with a limited number of patients. None could clarify frequency, time course, or prognosis of long-lasting dysgeusia after
To review the existing literature on the role of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for tongue base reduction in the management of adult obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).We searched PubMed, MEDLINE, and Scopus databases from the first A 66-year-old male patient presented with nausea, abdominal pain, occasional rectal bleeding, progressive dysgeusia, onicodystrophy, and alopecia. Endoscopic exam and biopsies revealed severe atrophy and diffuse marked edema of mucosa of stomach and duodenum. No evidence of polyps was found in any
For decades, neurologists have been advocating that anyone with acute focal deficits report immediately to the closest hospital's emergency room. Major advancements in the hyperacute diagnosis and treatment of stroke have justified our call-to-action slogan of "Time is Brain"-faster therapy leads to
OBJECTIVE
This study evaluated the safety, toxicity, pharmacological properties and biological activity of PI-88, a heparanase endoglycosidase enzyme inhibitor, with fixed weekly docetaxel in patients with advanced solid malignancies.
METHODS
This was a phase I study to determine the
OBJECTIVE
This study investigates the effectiveness of combined palatal surgery and transoral robotic surgical (TORS) tongue base reduction with partial epiglottidectomy in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in an Asian context. To our knowledge, this is the first report on TORS for OSA
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE
The use of fibrinogen concentrate to treat or prevent major
bleeding with regard to potential adverse reactions has not been free of controversy. Our objective was to perform a post-authorization safety study to describe the use of Clottafact
®The ability to switch between coagulation factors safely is of common interest to haemophilia patients and treating physicians. This is the first formal prospective comparative evaluation of safety, efficacy and incremental recovery of a plasma-derived FIX (pdFIX) and a recombinant FIX (rFIX) in the
Objectives: We aimed to provide information on the effects of tonsillectomy, in particular, its effects on taste dysfunction; also known as dysgeusia, and provide direction for future research in this area.
The success of antiretroviral therapy leads to a chronification of HIV-infection resulting in a decline of lethality. The lifelong intake of antiinfectives, though, may result in drug side effects with clinical dental implications. Despite fundamental cellular alterations, including prolonged
BACKGROUND
Patients subjected to long-term immunosuppressive therapy after organ and cells transplantation are more susceptible than healthy people to the development of the pathologic changes in the oral cavity, including precancerous lesions, oral cancers, lesions following viral infections
