Background: Surgical correction of the bony vault is challenging part of rhinoplasty surgery. Over resection and dorsal irregularities are common complications of manual osteotomy that can occur even in the hands of practiced surgeons. Power-assisted instrumentation now offers a useful alternative for precise and controlled reduction of the bony vault. Patients and Methods: 40 patients were included in this study, Patients were divided into two groups: Group A (20 patients) was operated using conventional cold instruments. Group B (20 patients) was operated upon using power instruments. Results: On comparison between both groups regarding VAS cosmetic results, we found that the results were not statistically significant (P value = 0.3). Although that the postoperative VAS-Cosmetic results of good and excellent improvement in group (A) was 65% compared to 75% in group (B). Also on comparison between both groups regarding the assessment of preoperative and postoperative photography, we found that the results were not statistically significant (P value = 0.4). Although that the patients showed good and excellent improvement were 60% in group (A) compared to 70% in group (B). Conclusion: Power-assisted instrumentation system is minimally invasive and sharply decrease the incidence of complications associated with manual procedures.

Background: Central auditory processing disorders (CAPDs) tend to affect an individual’s ability to understand speech, especially in difficult listening conditions. Objective: To study speech-in-noise (SIN) ability in cases of central auditory processing disorders (CAPDs) subjectively by Arabic Hearing in Noise Test (A-HINT) and objectively by Speech-evoked auditory brainstem response (S-ABR) with ipsilateral noise. Patients and Methods: Subjects included in this study will be divided into 2 groups: a control group which included 30 normal hearing subjects (17 males and 13 females). Their age ranged from 6 to 17 years. All subjects had normal developmental milestones and normal speech development. The Study group included 30 normal hearing subjects (18 males and 12 females). Their age ranged from 7 to 16 years. These subjects had central auditory processing disorders (CAPDs) diagnosed by central auditory screening tests. Both groups were tested using Arabic HINT and Speech-evoked auditory brainstem response (S-ABR) with ipsilateral noise. Results: Comparison between control and study groups as regards the Arabic HINT revealed statistically significant differences in noise conditions. Using S-ABR significant difference was found in onset and offset response waves latency in noise conditions also. Conclusion: Patients with CAPDs have speech in noise ability affection proved by affected HINT in noise conditions and by delayed SABR with ipsilateral noise latencies in onsetoffset responses.

Background: The most common learning disability affecting academic performance is Dyslexia. Linguistic abilities like morphological awareness, semantic and syntactic abilities play a key role in reading development too. The paper aimed to study the extent and properties of morphological aspects and syntactic functioning in relation to reading skills in a group of Egyptian children having poor academic achievement as for designing suitable intervention plans for these children. Patients and Methods: Our study aimed to assess the extent and properties of morphological aspects and syntactic functioning in relation to reading skills in 40 Egyptian Arabic speaking children of the same socioeconomic state and age range from 6 years to 8 years with poor academic performance. The children divided into two groups were subjected to a protocol of assessment applied in Phoniatrics Unit Kasr Al aini Hospital, Arabic Dyslexia Assessment Test and language skills assessment by Receptive Expressive Arabic Language scale- REAL scale were applied. Results: All children with poor scholastic achievement were found to be at risk for developing dyslexia if not suffering from it. They suffered from below average level of performance in receptive, expressive and total language. All language parameters showed significant correlation with rapid naming. Below average morpho-syntactic abilities of children with poor scholastic achievement significantly correlated with tests of attainment (except for spelling) and diagnostic tests (except for bead threading). Conclusion: Our study supports that language disability underlies poor scholastic achievement.
背景:影响学习成绩的最常见的学习障碍是阅读障碍。形态意识、语义和句法能力等语言能力在阅读发展中也起着关键作用。本文旨在研究一组学习成绩差的埃及儿童在阅读技能方面的形态方面和句法功能的程度和性质，以便为这些儿童设计合适的干预计划。患者和方法:我们的研究旨在评估40名具有相同社会经济地位和年龄的6至8岁学习成绩较差的埃及阿拉伯语儿童与阅读技能相关的形态方面和句法功能的程度和性质。两组儿童采用Kasr Al aini医院语音科的评估方案，采用阿拉伯语阅读障碍评估测试和接受性表达阿拉伯语量表- REAL量表进行语言技能评估。结果:所有学习成绩差的儿童如果没有患上阅读障碍，都有患阅读障碍的风险。他们在接受、表达和整体语言方面的表现低于平均水平。所有语言参数均与快速命名有显著相关。学业成绩差的儿童的形态句法能力低于平均水平，与学业成就测试(拼写除外)和诊断测试(头部穿线除外)显著相关。结论:我们的研究支持语言障碍是学习成绩差的根本原因。

Unit of 1,4Audio-vestibular Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Mansoura University, 2Audiovestibular Medicine Specialist. Ministry of Health, 3Public Health and Community, Faculty of Medicine, Mansoura University, Egypt. ABSTRACT Objectives: Hearing is a critical sense that affects the ability of persons especially children to communicate with others, share their thoughts and opinions, and participate in activities. In this descriptive cross-sectional study, school age children aged 6-12 years old in El-Mahalla El-Kubra district of Egypt were screened for hearing loss. Patients and Methods: Three hundred children were involved in this study from one rural and another urban primary school in El-Mahalla El-Kubra district of Egypt. All children were screened for hearing loss at their schools during the academic year 2017/2018. The positive cases were referred for basic audiological evaluation at El-Mahalla El-Kubra general hospital. All children were submitted to history taking through questionnaire, otoscopic examination, tympanometry and pure tone audiometry. Results: In this study, the prevalence of hearing loss was (9.2%) of the studied children. The most common type of hearing impairment was conductive hearing loss due to Eustachian tube dysfunction (4.7%) and secretory otitis media (3.3%). Conclusion: Recurrent ear infection is the commonest cause of hearing loss in children and hearing evaluation of school children is useful to avoid the impact of permanent hearing loss on scholastic achievements.

Background: Development of Arabic QuickSIN established after the need to speech in noise test using was elevated in the last decade. Objective: The purpose of this study was to Develop and standardize Arabic QuickSIN test that measures the signal-tonoise ratio loss. Patients and Methods: 300 Sentences have words that are not highly predictable from the surrounding context. These sentences were recorded by female talker, presented in four-talker babble in three experiments. Study sample: Fifty normal hearing subjects between the ages of 18-40 years. Results: In the first two experiments, the level of a female talker relative to that of four-talker babble was adjusted sentence by sentence to produce 50% correct scores. In experiment III, those sentences-in-babble that produced either lack of equivalence or high across-subject variability in scores were discarded. These experiments produced 10 equivalent lists, each list consists of six sentences, with one sentence at each signal-to-noise ratio of 25, 20, 15, 10, 5, and 0 decebels. Conclusion: A single QuickSIN list takes approximately one minute to administer and provides an estimate of SNR loss.

Background: Alar rim collapse is an agonizing problem that has both cosmetic and functional sequalae. It has been usually addressed with batten grafts. In this study, we are describing a simple technique for insertion of alar rim grafts to fix external nasal valve collapse. Patients and Methods: Between January 2018 and October 2020, eighteen patients with alar rim collapse or deformities were addressed using alar rim septal cartilage grafting. Results: All patients who underwent alar rim grafting for external nasal valve collapse were evaluated functionally and aesthetically with post-operative follow up ranging from 12 to 24 month. During which, they showed marked improvement in their nasal airway patency with complete satisfaction for the aesthetic outcome. No complications were encountered. Conclusion: Alar rim grafting is a simple and effective approach to provide support for the external nasal valve and alar contour. In cases of malpositioned lower lateral cartilage, alar flaring, nasal tip deformities, mild retraction, or contour asymmetries, these cartilage grafts showed good outcomes in primary or revision cases.

Background: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) refers to the existence of marked difficulties in terms of distractibility, impairment of attention and hyperactivity with a subsequent development of substantial impairment in academic and social functioning. Language impairment (LI)is a predominant co-morbidity in pediatrics with psychiatric illnesses and behavioral troubles. In children with LI, one of the common psychiatric disorders is ADHD. However, LI is a common co-morbidity which often could be detected in ADHD children. Although language problems are not among the main symptoms or needed to fulfill current diagnostic criteria of ADHD, most ADHD children have additional defects in language skills. Objective: The main purpose of the current study was to assess language profile in ADHD children at school age and to specify aspects of language defect in comparison with their normal peers. Patients and Methods: 60 children in the school age (6-10 years) of both genders divided in to two groups, case group: 30 children with ADHD and control group: 30 children without ADHD were enrolled in this case control study. Children were assessed by study tests: 1Stanford Binet [fifth edition], 2ADHD Test 3REAL Scale, 4Phonological Awareness Test, 5Rapid Automatized Naming Test. Results: ADHD children were lower than their normal peers in IQ score, language skills, phonological awareness skills, and rapid automatized naming. Regarding aspects of language, they had defects in many skills: receptive and expressive vocabulary, morphosyntax, sentence comprehension, story comprehension, verbal categorization, sentence repetition, and forming sentences.

Background /Aims: Stuttering typically emerges in the preschool years as children are experiencing substantial growth in their language and are beginning to combine words to form short sentences. Stuttering occurs during the process of planning utterances and using sounds to create words and sentences. A significant percentage of stutterers had a history of delayed language development and articulation disorders. This study's purpose was to examine differences between children who stutter (CWS) and child who do not stutter (CWNS) on standardized tests of IQ, language test, and articulatory tests. Patients and Methods: An analytic cross sectional study conducted on two groups of subjects. The study group consisted of 52 children (study group) who stutter (CWS) and control group included 52 children who do not stutter (CWNS). Each child in the study group was audio-recorded, which was subsequently assessed by (Arabic version of stuttering severity index "A-SSI") to provide information pertinent to the child's frequency and type of speech dysfluencies. Each child was determined and responded to standardized tests of cognitive, language, and articulatory assessment. Results: There was a significant decrease in receptive, expressive, and total language scores of language test within cases; regards to articulation test, there was a considerable increase of SSDs. These differences in receptive/expressive language and total language scores were significantly correlated with the overall stuttering frequency of cases CWS. Conclusion: Findings were taken to suggest the imbalance among components of the speech-language systems of CWS that may contribute to the difficulties they have establishing usual speech fluency.

Background: Many non-surgical and surgical procedures have been used to treat patients with chronic recurrent temporomandibular joint dislocation (CRTMJD). Autologous blood injection (ABI) represents a promising approach. Aim of the work: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ABI in the treatment of patients with CRTMJD. Patients and Methods: This prospective comparative study involved patients with CRTMJD who were treated by arthrocentesis and ABI with those treated with arthrocentesis alone between January 2017 and January 2020. Analysis of clinical presentation, diagnosis, close observation of patients has been carried out. Results: 140 patients were included in this study, 87 were males and 53 were females. Their ages ranged between 16 to 82 years. They were randomly divided into two groups of 70 each. Group-1 received arthrocentesis followed by ABI and Group-2 received arthrocentesis alone. In group-1, only one ABI was required and was successful in 63 patients and reinjection was required in 7 patients. None of the patients need surgery due to re-injection failure. Conclusion: Positive results on this modality were observed, some questions are still noted about the effect of blood injection on the articular cartilage and on the development of fibrous or bony ankylosis.

Introduction: Nasopharyngeal angiofibroma has usual characters regarding its origin, histopathology, vascular feeding and clinical presentation. In this study we have presented some cases of nasopharyngeal angiofibroma with unusual characters. Methods: A case series study that was conducted on patients with angiofibroma presented to otolaryngology department of Cairo University, between 2010 and 2020. Searching for unusual presentation. Results: Thirteen male patients with mean age 12.5 years had shown unusual character. Seven cases showed unusual vascular feeding pattern and six cases showed unusual character of anatomical location and extension (3 cases in whom the tumor is entirely medially located to sphenopalatine foramen and another 3 cases in whom the tumor is entirely laterally located to sphenopalatine foramen) Conclusion: Every day and other rhinologists all over the world report cases of nasopharyngeal angiofibroma. But some uncommon cases do not fulfill the typical epidemiological, pathological and clinical criteria and that is what was presented in this study. This study had highlighted 13 cases of angiofibroma with atypical characters regarding vascular feeding and locoregoinal extension.
