Diseases of the ear, throat and nose (otolaryngology)

Chronic Atrophic Rhinitis

Chronic atrophic rhinitis is divided into primary (genuinic), the etiology and pathogenesis of which is not entirely clear, and secondary, due to exposure to external hazards of the working environment (chemical, dust, temperature, radiation, etc.) and adverse climatic conditions.

Chronic hypertrophic rhinitis

Chronic hypertrophic rhinitis is understood to mean chronic inflammation of the nasal mucosa, the main pathological feature of which is hypertrophy of it, as well as of the interstitial tissue and glandular apparatus, caused by degenerative tissue processes, which are based on the violation of the IUD.

Chronic catarrhal rhinitis

Chronic catarrhal rhinitis is a form of rhinitis that is characterized by chronic catarrhal inflammation of the nasal mucosa, the main symptoms of which are more or less abundant discharge from the nose and a violation of nasal breathing.

Acute (catarrhal) nonspecific rhinitis

Acute (catarrhal) nonspecific rhinitis is the most common disease in otorhinolaryngology, characterized by pronounced seasonality and a significant individual predisposition to its occurrence.

Inflammatory diseases of the nasal septum: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

These diseases include its abscess and perichondritis. In the overwhelming majority of cases, these diseases occur again as complications of fracture and posttraumatic hematoma of the septum of the nose, septum operations and, less often, as complications of sycosis, furuncle, eczema and other inflammatory diseases of the vestibule of the nose.

Perforated ulcer of the nasal septum: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

The perforated ulcer of the septum of the nose is relatively rare (1.5-2.5% of all patients suffering from diseases of the nasal cavity), and is most often detected by chance either by the patient himself or by a rhinoscopy.

Eczema of the vestibule of the nose: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Eczema nasal artery is a very common disease that complicates various infectious colds due to abundant discharge from the nose and maceration of the skin.

Common syndromes of nose diseases

At various on aetiology and pathogenesis diseases of a nose and paranasal sinuses there are a number of the general clinical syndromes reflecting infringement of functions of this system and defining the basic complaints of patients.

Cochleovestibular disorders in neck injuries: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

In the pathogenesis of a number of labyrinthopathies, along with osteochondrosis, snundilosis of the cervical spine, pathological tortuosity and other abnormalities of the vertebral artery, a definite role is played by acute and chronic neck injuries, which cause damage to blood vessels and nerves, which play an important role in the functions of the inner ear (vertebral artery, cervical sympathetic plexus, etc.).

Inner ear injuries: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Injuries to the inner ear occur both in peacetime and in wartime. They are divided into gunshots, caused by cold weapons and sharp household items (knitting needles, pins, etc.), as well as injuries that occur by accidentally falling on a sharp object penetrating the drum cavity and injuring its medial wall.
