Myoepithelial carcinoma of the head and neck is a rare malignant tumor that usually arises from the salivary glands but rarely from the larynx. Here, we describe 11 cases (one treated by us and 10 previously published) of laryngeal myoepithelial carcinoma. Our patient was a 60-year-old male who initially presented with hoarseness and throat pain. The patient had suffered from continuing hoarseness and throat pain for one month before he consulted an otorhinolaryngologist. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed a polypoid tumor involving the right vocal cords...

Atypical Ramsay-Hunt syndrome is caused by varicella zoster viruses (VZV), without herpes, herpes is not around the ear, or posterior cranial nerve palsy is the first clinical manifestation. In this case, a 60-year-old male patient with VZV invades the branches of the vagus nerve alone. The initial symptoms were in the pharynx and larynx, which presented as mucosal ulcers and voice disorders. The ear symptoms were only otalgia and auricular herpes, without deafness, tinnitus, or peripheral facial palsy. Herpes and ulcers healed with medication, but voice disorders caused by vocal cord paralysis did not return...

Acinic cell carcinoma (AciCC) is a low-grade, slow-growing malignant tumor that commonly originates from the parotid gland and occasionally from the minor gland of the oral cavity, but rarely from the nasal cavity. Here, we present a 57-year-old woman who presented with an 8-month history of obstruction and epistaxis of the right nasal cavity. Rhinoscopy revealed a reddish-gray fleshy mass with tiny blood vessels on the surface blocking the right postnaris. Computed tomography showed a 3 × 2 cm2 well-demarcated tumor filling the right nasal common meatus with a clear boundary...

Tinnitus is a common complaint in the clinical setting and can be classified into sensorineural and objective tinnitus. The sources of objective tinnitus may either come from para-auditory structures, such as myogenic or vascular structures, or the middle ear muscles. One type of objective tinnitus of muscular origin is known as forceful eyelid closure syndrome (FECS). We present an additional case of a 22-year-old woman with unilateral FECS. The auricles and external auditory canals were normal bilaterally; we examined her tympanic membrane under an endoscope, the left tympanic membrane was retracted simultaneously with the closure of her eyelids...

External auditory canal adenoid cystic carcinoma (EAC) is rare and is associated with nonspecific clinical manifestations such as early ear pain. We report a patient with advanced lung metastases from adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the EAC, which is difficult to diagnose. Under general anesthesia, lengthened right temporal bone resection, parotidectomy, facial nerve resection, cervical lymph node dissection (I-III), partial mandibular resection, tumor resection in the inferior temporal fossa and lateral femoral flap repair were performed, followed by regular radiotherapy and chemotherapy...

Aspiring physicians face a large amount of information that must be learned and retrieved in real time. The skills that helped medical students reach residency may not be the enough to succeed as a physician. For example, like many students, cramming the night before an exam probably helped achieve a satisfactory score. Unfortunately, cramming does not require that the information be retained and applied overtime. The content acquired in medical school is cumulative, that is, the information learned remains relevant months and even years later...

OBJECTIVES: While surgeries to correct the anatomical malformations that cause nasal airway obstruction (NAO) are generally successful, the outcomes of such procedures are often unsatisfactory. The aim of the present study was to assess the value of opening the middle meatus in patients with NAO. METHODS: Thirty-four patients with nasal obstruction due to nasal septal deviation were included in this study. After randomization, the middle meatus was either opened or not opened during septoplasty...

Patients with vertigo and facial nerve palsy as initial symptoms are rarely diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. A 43-year-old woman presented to our department with symptoms of vertigo and right facial nerve palsy (Yanagihara 16-point system [total score, 40] or House- Brackmann grade IV [obvious facial weakness]). On the day of the visit, she presented with right eye abduction, left eye adduction, and complaints of diplopia. Based on magnetic resonance imaging findings, she was diagnosed with clinically isolated syndrome, which is an early manifestation of multiple sclerosis...

Nasal primary tuberculosis (TB) of the upper respiratory tract is rare and barely reported in literature. Herein, we report a complicated case of nasal primary TB with otitis media. The patient visited the ENT clinic due to left-side nasal obstruction accompanied by rhinorrhea, and intermittent headaches. The diagnosis of nasal TB was confirmed with an acid-fast bacterial test and histopathological examination. After 3 months of treatment with anti-TB drugs, patient's symptoms of nasal obstruction, rhinorrhea, and other symptoms were remarkably relieved...

REVIEW
Yael Wollstein, Noel Jabbour
Medical education requires learners to absorb, retain, and apply vast amounts of information at every level of training. This process is constrained by the limitations of human memory, which were described by psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus as a "forgetfulness curve." As he explained, material encountered during a lecture or study session is typically lost rapidly over the ensuing days. Ebbinghaus' solution to this problem-spaced repetition-involves revisiting studied content at multiple, specifically selected time intervals to reinforce learning and facilitate long-term retention...

The Bonebridge (BB) was the first active transcutaneous implantation system for bone conduction. The main indications are conductive or mixed hearing loss and single-sided deafness. Treacher-Collins syndrome (TCS) is a rare genetic disease that affects craniofacial development. The disorder results in deformations of facial structure including ear malformations, especially microtia and ear canal atresia. These patients suffer from conductive hearing loss. CT scans often show unfavorable temporal bone anatomy making placement of an implant difficult...

Combined the big data from Chinese researches and our clinical experiences, we drew a concise "distributed map" of intractable epistaxis showing the concealed bleeding regions and offending vessels clearly (Figure 1). The bleeding site was located accurately according to the "distributed map," and bleeding was stopped via bipolar radiofrequency ablation under nasal endoscope without nasal packing, followed by five classic cases (Figure 2). It is our recommended precise mode of diagnosis and treatment of refractory epistaxis...
