    (2023) Inan, Serhat; Gultekin, Goknil; Yilmaz, Ismail; Buyuklu, Adnan Fuat; 0000-0001-8821-4481; 0000-0002-9001-7812; 36196949
    Objective To evaluate the impact of functional septorhinoplasty (SRP) with and without concha bullosa resection (CBR) on sinonasal symptoms and nasal obstruction severity using the Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) and Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) scale. Methods Consecutive adult participants who underwent SRP were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 (SRPwCB) underwent SRP with CBR (bulbous or extensive type MTs), and Group 2 (SRPO) underwent SRP only (normal or lamellar-type MTs). The NOSE and SNOT-22 scales were assessed preoperatively and at the 3-month follow-up evaluation. Patient demographics, self-reported outcomes, nasoseptal angle (NSA), and Lund-Mackay scores (LMS) were analyzed. Results There were 119 participants (SRPwCB n = 57; SPRO n = 62). There were no statistically significant differences in age, sex, allergy, smoking, LMS, and NSA according to the presence of MTCB. Compared to SRPO, SRPwCB patients had significantly higher preoperative NOSE and SNOT-22 scores, whereas their postoperative NOSE and SNOT-22 scores were similar. SRPwCB patients also had significantly more postnasal discharge, ear fullness, facial pain/pressure, poor sleep, night waking, daytime fatigue, sense of taste/smell, and blockage symptoms before surgery compared with SRPO patients. Conclusion SRPwCB patients had higher nasal obstruction and sinonasal symptom scores and greater improvement after surgery than SRPO patients. Therefore, evaluating the middle turbinate before functional SRP may be an important for surgical treatment of sinonasal symptoms. Level of Evidence 3 Laryngoscope, 2022

    Cochlear Implant Failure in the Pediatric Population
    (2021) Ozer, Fulya; Yavuz, Haluk; Yilmaz, Ismail; Ozluoglu, Levent N.; 0000-0003-3320-204X; 34551468; F-6315-2015
    Background and Objectives: In cochlear implant (CI) surgery, the results and causes of revision and reimplantation may guide surgeons in establishing surgical protocols for revision surgery with safe audiological outcomes. The aim of this study was to review our experience in terms of etiology, surgical strategy, and hearing outcomes in pediatric patients who underwent CI removal and reimplantation. Subjects and Methods: All patients received implants of the same brand. Pre and postoperative Categories of Auditory Performance score and aided free-field pure tone audiometry thresholds were noted. In vivo integrity tests were performed for each patient and the results of ex vivo tests of each implant were obtained from manufacturer. Results: A total of 149 CIs were placed in 121 patients aged <18 years. The revision rate in children was 6.7% (10/121 children). Six patients had a history of head injury leading to a hard failure. The causes of reimplantation in others were soft failure (n=1), electrode migration (n=1), infection (n=1), and other (n=1). All patients showed better or similar postreimplantation audiological performance compared with pre-reimplantation results. Conclusions: It is very important to provide a safe school and home environment and educate the family for reducing reimplantation due to trauma. Especially for active children, psychiatric consultation should be continued postoperatively.

    Comparing the Efficiencies of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and Intratympanic Steroid Treatment for Sudden Hearing Loss
    (2020) Eski, Erkan; Babakurban, Seda; Yilmaz, Serkan; Yilmazer, Cuneyt; Erkan, Alper Nabi; Caylakli, Fatma; Yilmaz, Ismail; 0000-0002-4784-3342; 0000-0001-5067-4044; 0000-0002-7333-2896; 0000-0001-7138-1400; 32784167; AAD-5458-2021; AAI-8856-2021; AAP-7195-2020; H-1063-2019
    OBJECTIVES: To compare the efficiencies of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) and intratympanic steroid (ITS)treatment for idiopathic sudden sensonneural hearingloss (ISSHL). MATERIALS and METHODS: A total of 136 patients who were treated for ISSHL were reviewed fromthemedical records. All of the patients were given systemic steroid therapy (SST). Among them,33patients received HBOT and 36 patients received ITS treatment following SST. The starting time to treatment, risk factors, hearing level, hearing gain (HG), and recovery rate were evaluated from retrospectiverecords. RESULTS: No substantial change in HG was observed for either the HBOT or ITS treatment cohort (p>0.05). But the time to recovery was higher in the ITS treatment cohort (40%) than in theHBOT cohort (17%). The starting time to ITS treatment was 4 days (range: 1-30) and that to HBOT was 8 days (range:3-30). There was a significant difference in the starting time to treatment (Mann-Whitney U-test, p=0.043). Also, hearing loss in the HBOT group was significantly higher than in the ITS treatment group. A significant difference was observed before and after ITS treatment (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: In patients compared with late-onset treatment, ITS may be more effective than HBO after SST failure. It can be used as salvage therapy in patients with ISSHL who are unresponsive to a primary systemic steroid. We observed that HBOT didnot improve results when it was started late. Therefore, more studies that include both ITS treatment and HBOTas anearly treatment option are needed.

    Administration of paracetamol versus dipyrone by intravenous patient-controlled analgesia for postoperative pain relief in children after tonsillectomy
    (2015) Sener, Mesut; Kocum, Aysu; Caliskan, Ebru; Yilmaz, Ismail; Caylakli, Fatma; Aribogan, Anis; 25443442
    Background and objective: We compared the efficacy of intravenous (iv) paracetamol versus dipyrone via patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) for postoperative pain relief in children. Methods: The study was composed of 120 children who had undergone elective tonsillectomy after receiving general anesthesia. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to the dosage of postoperative intravenous-patient-controlled analgesia: paracetamol, dipyrone, or placebo. Pain was evaluated using a 0- to 100-mm visual analog scale and 1- to 4-pain relief score at 30 min, 1, 2, 4, 6, 12, and 24h postoperatively. Pethidine (0.25 mg kg 1) was administered intravenously to patients requiring rescue analgesia. Pethidine requirements were recorded during the first 24h postoperatively, and treatment related adverse effects were noted. Results: Postoperative visual analog scale scores were significantly lower with paracetamol group compared with placebo group at 6h (p < 0.05), dipyrone group compared with placebo group at 30 min and 6 h (p <0.05). No significant differences regarding visual analog scale values at 1, 2, 4, 12, and 24h were found. No significant differences were found between groups with respect to pain relief score (p >0.05). Postoperative pethidine requirements were significantly lower with paracetamol and dipyrone groups compared with placebo group (62.5%, 68.4% vs 90%, p < 0.05). No significant differences were found between groups with respect to nausea, vomiting and the any other adverse effects of the drugs (p >0.05). Conclusions: Paracetamol and dipyrone have well tolerability profile and effective analgesic properties when administered iv-PCA for postoperative analgesia in children after tonsillectomy.

    Sensorineural Hearing Loss in Selective Immunglobulin A Deficiency
    (2017) Eski, Erkan; Usta, Belgin Emine; Asilsoy, Suna; Yilmaz, Ismail; 0000-0002-4784-3342; 29392049; AAD-5458-2021; AAM-7975-2020
    Objective: To assess hearing functions in pediatric patients with selective immunoglobulin A (IgA) deficiency (SIGAD). Methods: Pure-tone audiometry, acoustic impedance, otoacoustic emission, and brainstem audiometric measurements were taken during a non-infectious period in 28 patients with SIGAD and 28 healthy children with normal otoscopic examination. The results of the hearing tests were compared between the two groups. Results: Two male patients and one female patient in the SIGAD group were found to have sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). However, a comparison of the average pure tone cut-off values at 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 kHz did not reveal any statistically significant difference between the groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: Pediatric patients with SIGAD may exhibit SNHL at certain frequencies and require follow-up for the potential development of hearing loss.

    Complications of Formaldehyde Injection for a Cystic Mass of the Neck
    (2018) Caylakli, Fatma; Yilmaz, Ismail; Alkan, Ozlem; 30197813
    Formaldehyde is a colorless reactive chemical with suffocating and pungent odor. It is irritant to mucous membranes and can enter the body by either oral ingestion or inhalation. Formaldehyde is toxic to living tissue. In this report, we present the case of a 22-year-old woman who was treated with formaldehyde injection for a cystic mass of the neck with developing complications.
