JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF HEAD NECK & SPINE SURGERY Abstract Introduction: Neck pain increases its frequency in medical consultation. It has been published that about 50% of general population has neck pain at any time and the presence of stress in our life is becoming increasingly frequent. Objective: To determine the relation of neck pain with risk factors such as stress, the posture and the perception of risk in patients, in population older than 15 years. Method: A, transversal, retrospective and descriptive study was made to a representative sample of 557 persons; a questionnaire of 10 questions was applied that included general data with the presence of neck pain and the relation of the stress with this pain as causal factors. Results: 58.5% of the patients (326) reported neck pain at any time and 73.3% has stress and neck pain associated. Conclusions: Stress is identified as an important risk factor of the neck pain with severa

Sequential Delivery of Growth Factors from Hydrolytically Degradable Silica-Based Nanoparticles for Cartilage Tissue Engineering-Juniper publishers

Image
JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF HEAD NECK & SPINE SURGERY Abstract Articular cartilage shows a very limited self-healing capability due to it's a vascular structure. It has been reported that sequential supplementation of various growth factors such as bone morphogenic protein 7 (BMP-7), transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-01) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) play critical roles in reconstruction of articular cartilage tissue. The objective of this work is to design a drug delivery system which facilitates the controlled sequential delivery growth factors to maximize the extent of chondrogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells and consequently reconstruction of damaged cartilage tissue. Surface-modified silica nanoaprticles (SNs) with short segments of lactide (L) and glycolide (G) units were used for grafting and timed-release of growth factors. It was shown that by changing the length of L and G units, the release rate of graft

Study of Laryngotracheal Stenosis and its Management in 25 Cases-Juniper publishers

Image
JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF HEAD NECK & SPINE SURGERY Abstract Introduction: Laryngotracheal stenosis is a complex problem resulting most often from intubation, trauma, or autoimmune disease. In this modern era, airway trauma has increased by considerable number owing to increased ventilator care in many emergency situations [ 1 ]. Anaesthetist's timely intubation saves the life of a patient but he must also be able to foresee the chaotic life of a prolongedly intubated patient who might develop stenosis. Objectives of the study: Clinical study of LTS was done to observe the various etiological causes for it and major concentration was towards the post intubational stenosis. With increasing ventilatory support for varied reasons in present day intensive care setup, the incidence of stenosis following intubation has equally increase. Management of these cases needs a great surgical expertise, due to high failure rate as well as many compli

Ticks in the External Auditory Canal: A Common Situation in Rural Areas-Juniper publishers

Image
JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF HEAD NECK & SPINE SURGERY Abstract Objective: Foreign bodies in the external auditory canal generally occur in children, and are generally inert. Ticks constitute live foreign bodies. This is important, because ticks are vectors of many diseases, including Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever. This article throw as light into a clinical problem seen frequently especially in rural population. Material and Method: Patients living in rural areas diagnosed with ticks in the external auditory canal were retrospectively studied. Twenty- one patients treated in otorhinolaryngology clinic in the Northeast Anatolian region of Turkey were examined in terms of demographic and seasonal features, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. Results: The usual complaint was increasing ear pain. On parasitological examination, all ticks were Otobius megnini. No patient developed Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever or any other illness. Conclusio

Unilateral Bleeding Polyp in a Child: Lobular Capillary Hemangioma-Juniper publishers

Image
JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF HEAD NECK & SPINE SURGERY Abstract Epistaxis, though being common, always attracts special attention from medical professionals due to the nature of bleeding involved in the process. Children presenting with unilateral epistaxis warn otolaryngologists as the cause can vary from nasal foreign bodies to life threatening hemangiomas and angiofibromas. We present a rare case of lobular capillary hemangioma originating from nasal septum in a child who presented with episodes of profuse bleed. Early diagnosis and management with total excision was awarding. The occurrence is rare, however it should be in the differential diagnoses of unilateral nasal bleed in outpatient and emergency settings and strong suspicion is warranted.
