    Anthropometric growth study of auricle of healthy preterm and term newborns
    (Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2006) Kalcioglu, MT; Toplu, Y; Ozturan, O; Yakinci, C
    Objective: Auricular abnormalities are important for early diagnosis of the birth defects in the prematures and newborns. Auricular antropometric studies in healthy premature and mature population depend on their gestational age are limited and insufficient. The aims of this study were to reveal antropometric growth and dynamics of the auricle in the healthy newborns from the 28th to the 42nd gestation weeks. Materials and methods: A total of 600 newborns were evaluated in 40 groups. Each group comprising 20 preterm or term newborns according to their sexes and gestational weeks. Six surface dimensions were performed directly from the right ears of the subjects: the length from the superaurale to subaurale, the width from the tragus to helix, the width from the tragus to antihelix, the conchal depth, the distance from the helix to mastoid at superaural level and the distance from the helix to mastoid at tragal level. The frequency of the prominent ear deformity and lobule attachment were also noted. Results: The results of auricular antropometric measurements of healthy preterm and term newborns in different gestational weeks were to determined. No statistical differences of auricular length were found between mate and female infants. The incidence of the prominent ear deformity and attached lobule was 8.16 and 27.4%, respectively. Conclusions: Normal anthropometric features for healthy newborns on the basis of gestational age are very important for the diagnosis of a variety of congenital malformations or syndromes. In this study, antropometric measurements of the auricle in the healthy preterm and term newborns on the basis of gestational age in our region were noted. Similar anthropometric studies in the preterm and term newborns at different geographic and various socioeconomic areas should be performed to constitute normative data in the literature.

    Anthropometric growth study of normal human auricle
    (Elsevier Sci Ireland Ltd, 2003) Kalcioglu, MT; Miman, MC; Toplu, Y; Yakinci, C; Ozturan, O
    Objective: The aim of this study was to reveal the anthropometric growth of auricula from birth to the age of 18 years and to bring out the dynamics of ear growth. Material and methods: A total of 1552 children in 50 groups were evaluated. Six surface measurements were performed directly on the right auricle of the subjects: the length from the superaurale to subaurale, the width from the tragus to helix, the width from the tragus to antihelix, the concha[ depth, the height from the helix to mastoid at superauraler level, and the height from the helix to mastoid at tragal level. The frequency of prominent ear deformity and the degree of attachment of the lobule were also noted. Results: Vertical auricular growth was complete in girls at the age of 11 and in boys at the age of 12, whereas the auricular width from the tragus to helix, the height from the helix to mastoid at superauraler level and the height from the helix to mastoid at tragal level were found almost complete at the age of 6. The auricular width from the tragus to antihelix attained its full size at 6 months for girls and 12 months for boys. The conchal. depth was found almost complete at the age of 5 in both sexes. The incidence of prominent ear deformity and attached lobule was 9.8 and 26.5%, respectively. Conclusions: Different ear growth pattern and maturation size from previously published reports are obtained in different populations. There is still need for future studies comparing populations with different social and ethnic background to interpret common knowledge about the size of the ear. This study gives dimensional information and the growth pattern of the auricle, and therefore may reveal important implications for the adequate timing of the surgical treatment of auricular deformity.

    Internal nasal valve
    (Mosby, Inc, 2006) Miman, MC; Deliktas, H; Özturan, O; Toplu, Y; Akarçay, M
    OBJECTIVES: Comprehensive examination of the internal nasal valve (INV) using objective methods. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: In this prospective study, 248 nasal cavities were examined by nasal endoscopy, acoustic rhinometry (ARM), and rhinomanometry (RMM). RESULTS: Endoscopic examination allowed to suggest a novel classification of INV: convex, concave, sharp angle, blunt angle, twisted caudal border, and angle occupied by the septal body. The INV angle occupied with septal body type was found to have increased nasal resistances compared with the sharp-angled internal nasal valve type (P < 0.05). Convex, concave, and sharp-angle types of INV angles were found different (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: INV should be examined objectively before any INV surgery. A novel description of the INV configurations and their effects on nasal respiration found in this study may increase our understanding and lead surgical approaches more adequately. A surgical attempt to augment INV angle value may impact positively on nasal resistance. EBM rating: C-4 (C) 2006 American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Foundation, Inc.
