(Springer, 2023) Ramraj Yadav; Rajesh Kumar; Sunil Kumar; Deepak Kumar Gupta; Vishwambhar Singh; Ashvanee Kumar Chaudhary; Sandeep Kumar Dubey; Satya Prakash Verma; A. Aruna
This is a case of a patient with history of ear surgery who visited ENT outdoor, for continuous vertigo which used to get aggravated with loud noise, associated with hearing loss, persistent sensations of right-sided aural fullness/pressure and otalgia for last 2 years. He had history of tympanoplasty with ossiculoplasty using a TORP. On exploration under local anesthesia there was a displaced prosthesis into inner ear, upon removal of which symptoms and severity subsided exponentially. © 2023, Association of Otolaryngologists of India.
A Study of Relationship Between Serum Lipids and Sensorineural Hearing Loss
(Springer, 2023) Silky Silky; Vishwambhar Singh; Deepak Kumar Gupta; Ashvanee Kumar Chaudhary; Ramraj Yadav; Rajesh Kumar; S. Siva; Rajeev Kumar Jain
The modern life style poses new challenges on the normal physiological mechanisms of the human body. Drug abuse, tobacco smoking, and alcohol drinking, as well as lack of exercise may also increase the risk of developing certain diseases, especially older age.To study the relationship between degree of sensorineural hearing loss and serum lipid level (total cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoproteins, high density lipoproteins).A cross-sectional study was conducted in 150 patients aged between 15 to 60 years diagnosed with sensorineural hearing loss at Otorhinolaryngology outpatient department at Sir Sunder Lal hospital, IMS, BHU. All the 150 patients were amongst age group of 15 to 60 years who were registered from August 2019 to July 2021.The serum levels of total cholesterol, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein directly correlate with the severity of sensorineural hearing loss significantly (p < 0.05) whereas the serum levels of high-density lipoprotein had no direct co-relation with the severity of sensorineural hearing loss. Hyperlipidemic state is a major risk factor for SNHL. Regular screening and monitoring of serum lipid might prevent morbid SNHL and improve patients’ quality of life in long term. © 2023, Association of Otolaryngologists of India.
Comparative Study of Complications Associated with Coblation Versus Conventional Tonsillectomy
(Springer, 2023) Kanchan Chaudhary; Vishwambhar Singh; Ramraj Yadav; Ashvanee Kumar Chaudhary; Rajesh Kumar; Deepak Kumar Gupta; Jyoti Kumar Verma
Tonsillectomy is one of the most common ear, nose and throat surgical procedure, carried out worldwide1. Amongst the various method of tonsillectomy (diathermy, laser, harmonic scalpel, radiofrequency cautery cryosurgery and coblation), dissection and snare method is commonest procedure done by otorhinolaryngologist. To compare the post operative complications associated with coblation versus conventional cold-dissection steel tonsillectomy. We carried out the prospective study of complications associated with coblation versus conventional cold steel tonsillectomy in postoperative pain, anesthesia, hemorrhage, fever, pharyngitis, injury of adjacent structure & cautery burn. Average blood loss on Coblation side was 18.74 ml while on conventional side it was 44.2 ml. Post operative pain score, injury to adjacent structure and cautery burn were found to be significantly decreased in coblation. No such difference was observed in pharyngitis and fever in both methods. The use of coblator reduces the post-operative pain, peri or post-operative blood loss, injury to adjacent structure & cautery burn too. © 2023, Association of Otolaryngologists of India.

Hearing Screening in Children with Suspected Hearing Loss at a Tertiary Care Centre of Eastern Uttar Pradesh
(Springer, 2023) Vishwambhar Singh; Deepak Kumar Gupta; Mukesh Ranjan; Ashvanee Kumar Chaudhary; Ramraj Yadav; Rajesh Kumar; Arpit Goyal
This study aims to comprehend the experience of hearing screening in children with suspected hearing loss at a tertiary care centre of eastern Uttar Pradesh, India using distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) as a screening modality. This study was conducted at a tertiary care centre of eastern Uttar Pradesh during the period of July, 2021to June, 2022 consisting of 96 children who were referred with suspected hearing loss. They underwent distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) testing. Out of 96 children who underwent DPOAE testing, 25 (26.04%) passed the test, 55(57.29%) had “refer” result in bilateral ears whereas 16 (16.67%) had “refer” result in either ear. OAE is a simple, cost-effective and convenient tool for hearing screening in spite of some limitations. Universal new-born hearing screening can be implemented using OAE. © 2023, Association of Otolaryngologists of India.
To Study the Incidence of Biofilm Formation, its Microbiology and its Effect on the Development of Acute and Chronic Rhinosinusitis- A Prospective Study

Bacterial biofilms are organised complex structures having polymicrobial nature in a single community, which provide protection to bacteria from antibiotics by various means. The aim of our study was to determine the prevalence of biofilm-forming bacteria in clinical isolates of acute and chronic rhinosinusitis (ARS and CRS) patients with sinonasal mucopurulence. To know the incidence of bacterial biofilms in patient with ARS and CRS, to study the microbiology of bacterial biofilms in ARS and CRS, to assess the role and effects of biofilm in ARS and CRS and to correlate the association between the formation of the biofilm and development of rhinosinusitis. This prospective study was carried out at a tertiary care centre in Eastern part of India, in which 60 patients were taken as sample size. All patients of rhinosinusitis between age-group of 10 to70 years, who came to our out-patient department, were taken for our study. Biofilm formation was observed in 50% cases and were absent in 50% cases of chronic rhinosinusitis in our study. 83.3% (50) of patients out of 60 patients got improved after treatment and recurrence was observed in only 16.6% (10) of patients. Recurrence was more at 3 months follow-up as compared to follow-up at 1 month, though it was not statistically significant. Though our study highlighted the incidence and role of biofilms in the development of chronic rhinosinusitis, but few more randomized controlled studies involving larger sample sizes should be done to exactly determine the pathophysiological role of biofilms in the development and recurrence of acute and chronic rhinosinusuitis. © Association of Otolaryngologists of India 2024.
