Öğe Bacterial etiology of otitis media with effusion;: Focusing on the high positivity of Alloiococcus otitidis(Luigi Ponzio E Figlio, 2002) Kalcioglu, MT; Oncel, S; Durmaz, R; Otlu, B; Miman, MC; Ozturan, OThe etiology of otitis media with effusion (OME) is unclear. The bacterial analyses of middle ear effusion (MEE) in OME may reveal important information regarding its etiology. Alloiococcus otitidis, Heamophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Moraxella catarrhalis were investigated by using microbiologic culture and a multiplex PCR method in the middle ear fluid of 32 children (54 samples) with chronic OME. PCR yielded positive results in 18 (33.3%) middle ear effusions while culture resulted positive for 3 (5.6%). The PCR method detected A. otitidis in 10 (18.5%) specimens, H. influenzae in 7 (13%), M. catarrhalis in 4 (7.4%) and S. pneumoniae in 2 (3.7%) specimens. The multiplex PCR method enhances the detection rate significantly compared to that of the conventional culture method. A. otitidis is the most common detected pathogen in the MEE of the OME.Öğe Bilateral hearing loss during vincristine therapy: A case report(E I F T Srl, 2003) Kalcioglu, MT; Kuku, I; Kaya, E; Oncel, S; Aydogdu, IVincristine sulfate is a chemotherapeutic agent used in different cancer therapies. It is also the first choice of treatment for peripheral T-cell lymphoma with cyclophosphamide and adriamycin. Sudden hearing loss during vincristine therapy is a very rare event. This is a case of a 16-year old girl who developed sudden bilateral hearing loss related to vincristine therapy.Öğe Butylcyanoacrylate tissue adhesive for columellar incision closure(Headley Brothers Ltd, 2001) Ozturan, O; Miman, MC; Aktas, D; Oncel, SCosmetic outcome of the columellar incision closure in external rhinoplasty patients has been a subject of discussion. This study was conducted to assess whether tissue adhesives provide an alternative option for sutureless closure of columellar skin incisions for cases utilizing open technique rhinoplastic surgery. One hundred and one patients undergoing external rhinoplasty were randomized to either topical application of butylcyanoacrylate or polypropylene sutures for columellar skin closure. The majority of tension on the wound edges was taken up using 5-0 chromic catgut. Cosmetic outcomes were evaluated by two otolaryngologists independently using visual analogue and Hollander wound evaluation scales in a blinded manner. There was no statistically significant difference in cosmesis between the surgeons' evaluation scores for either type or repair of the columellar incision. Since the tissue adhesive forms its own protective barrier, post-operative care is simplified. Closure with adhesives eliminates the need for post-operative suture removal requiring an extra visit that should lead to more efficient use of physician and patient time. Butylcyanoacrylate performs cosmetically as well as standard suture closure of columellar skin incision used for external rhinoplasty.Öğe Detection of Alloiococcus otitidis in the nasopharynx and in the outer ear canal(Luigi Ponzio E Figlio, 2002) Durmaz, R; Ozerol, IH; Kalcioglu, MT; Oncel, S; Otlu, B; Direkel, S; Hendolin, PHAlloiococcus otitidis has been recovered from the middle car of children with otitis media with effusion, but its natural habitat is not known. To determine whether the nasopharynx and the outer ear canals are the natural habitats of A. otitidis, 145 swabs (50, nasopharynx; 95 outer ear canal) collected from 50 children were screened by polymerase chain reaction. A. otitidis DNA was detected in seven (4.8%) of the 145 specimens, of which four were nasopharynx, and three outer ear canal. These results indicate that the nasopharynx and outer car canal may be the body sites for localization of A. otitidis.Öğe Effects of the electromagnetic field of mobile telephones on hearing(Taylor & Francis As, 2002) Ozturan, O; Erdem, T; Miman, MC; Kalcioglu, MT; Oncel, SThe widespread use of mobile telephones has given rise to concern about the potential influences of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) on human health. Anatomically, the ear is in close proximity to the mobile telephone during use. Hearing loss due to mobile telephone use has not been described in the medical literature however, if there is a subtle cochlear involvement, it might be detected by means of changes in evoked otoacoustic emissions (OAEs), Thirty volunteers with normal hearing were exposed to mobile telephone EMFs for 10 min and evoked OAEs were measured before and after exposure. No measurable change in evoked OAEs was detected and none of the subjects reported a deterioration in hearing level. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study on the effects of EMFs emitted by mobile telephones on hearing. It was concluded that a 10-min exposure to the EMF emitted from a mobile telephone had no effect on hearing, at least at outer ear. middle ear and cochlear levels.Öğe Glomus jugulare(Sage Publications Ltd, 2002) Miman, MC; Aktas, D; Oncel, S; Ozturan, O; Kalcioglu, MT[Abstract Not Available]Öğe The relationship between the concha bullosa, nasal septal deviation and sinusitis(Int Rhinologic Soc, 2003) Aktas, D; Kalcioglu, MT; Kutlu, R; Ozturan, O; Oncel, SObjectives: To evaluate the possible relationship between concha bullosa, nasal septal deviation and sinusitis. Patients and methods: Paranasal sinus computed tomography scans of patients suffering from rhinosinusitis were examined. Fifty-four patients with concha bullosa were included in the study. The relationship between concha bullosa, nasal septal deviation and sinusitis was investigated. Results: A statistically significant relationship between unilateral concha bullosa and nasal septal deviation was found (p<0.01). The relationships of unilateral and bilateral concha bullosa with sinusitis, and bilateral concha bullosa with nasal septal deviation were not statistically significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: In order to define the relation between the concha bullosa, nasal septal deviation and sinusitis, more detailed investigations are needed.
