Mucocele of the paranasal sinuses are benign cystic lesions filled with mucus. They occur in the sphenoid sinus in 1–2% of all paranasal sinuses, most often in the fourth decade of life. Clinical manifestations are non-specific, caused by pressure expansion into anatomical structures immediately adjacent to the sphenoid sinus. They are manifested by headaches, dropped eyelids, impaired movement of the globe, and impaired vision. In the differential diagnosis, it is necessary to distinguish them from tumour processes and processes propagating from the intracranium. Computed tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) play an important role in the diagnosis, the definitive diagnosis is determined by perioperative findings and histological examination. Curative surgical options include endoscopic transnasal sphenoidotomy with marsupialization. In this article, we present a case of a patient with a mucocele of the sphenoid sinus, which was the cause of unilateral blindness. Keywords: marsupialization – mucocele – sphenoid sinus – endoscopic transnasal sphenoidotomy

Background: The diagnosis of recurrent upper aerodigestive tumours is difficult, especially in the case of previous curative radiotherapy (RT) or chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Progress in the diagnostics of head and neck cancer came with the development of optical endoscopic imaging methods. The aim of this study was to analyse the benefits of flexible Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) in the visualization of suspected recurrence of malignancy in patients after curative RT (CRT). Methods: A total of 58 examined patients in follow-up after curative RT or CRT for laryngeal and hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma were enrolled in the study. All patients underwent transnasal flexible endoscopy in conventional white light and NBI in local anaesthesia. Changes in microvascular architecture (intraepithelial papillary capillary loops – IPCL) have been classified according to Ni. IPCL I–III were considered to be non-suspicious, and therefore no histopathological examination was indicated. IV and V type findings were verified using HDTV NBI intraoperatively with biopsy sampling and subsequent histopathological correlation was performed. Results: Transnasal videoendoscopic examination with NBI revealed a suspicious finding (IPCL type IV and V) in 23/58 (39.7%) patients, non-suspicious finding (IPCL I–III) in 35/58 (60.3%). Histopathological examination verified the positive finding (precancerous or malignant changes) in 12/23 (52.2%) and negative finding in 11/23 (47.8%) cases. The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value of flexible NBI endoscopy were 100%, 76.1%, 52.2% and 100% respectively. According to the Kappa index (K = 0.568), we proved a moderate concordance between flexible NBI endoscopy and histopathological results. Conclusions: Transnasal flexible endoscopy with NBI in outpatient settings contributes to an early detection of pathological changes also in post-radiation altered mucosa of the larynx and hypopharynx, while a correct interpretation of in NBI findings is required to reduce the incidence of false positive results.

The internal carotid artery is one of the major vessels of the neck. It usually originates from the common carotid artery at the level of the 3rd–4th cervical vertebra and continues perpendicularly to the skull base in the neurovascular bundle. During common surgical procedures in the pharynx, such as adenoidectomy or tonsillectomy, the artery is usually in a safe distance from the pharyngeal wall and the risk of injury is low. However, several anatomical variations have been described that may cause medialization of the vessel closer to the pharyngeal wall, which significantly increases the risk of injury and occurrence of life-threatening haemorrhage.

Summary Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) belongs to the malignant polyostotic sclerotic forms of non-Langerhans histiocytosis. During abnormal prolipheration of pathologic histiocytes (foam cells), involved structures become hypertrophic with increased density followed by scarring. Mostly the diaphysis and metaphysis of long bones of lower limbs with typical pain are involved. According to the WHO, the disease is classified as histiocytic neoplasia. We refer on a 74-year-old female patient with expansive process in the region of upper clivus and sphenoidal bone on the right side. Histological testing confirmed this very rare disease that affects about 600 patients over the world. Key words Erdheim-Chester – foamy histiocytes – sclerosis – fibrosis

Summary Introduction: Acute vertigo ranks among the common reasons for visiting the emergency department. The aim of this study was to evaluate the rate of peripheral vestibular syndrome (PVS) in patients with acute vertigo examined at the ENT emergency department and to compare the agreement of physical ENT examination with video-assisted vestibular testing. Methods: Patients eamined at the ENT emergency department from January to December 2019 were evaluated retrospectively. The patients who underwent basic ENT examination without video-assisted vestibular testing form group A. The patients who underwent basic ENT examination which was followed by video head impulse test (vHIT) and videonystagmography in the next four days form group B. Results: A total of 117 patients with acute vertigo were included in group A, PVS was found in 31 patients (27%). In total, 50 patients were included in group B; PVS was found in 15 patients (30%), vestibular neuronitis was diagnosed most often (10 patients). The difference in the diagnosis of PVS by basic ENT examination (27 patients, 54%) and by video-assisted vestibular testing (15 patients, 30%) was statistically significant (P = 0.0030). The gain of the lateral (P = 0.0101) and superior (P = 0.0043) semicircular canal proved to be statistically significant, while vHIT was lower in PVS in comparison to other causes of vertigo. Conclusion: After basic ENT examination, PVS as a cause of acute vertigo was diagnosed in 27%. Video-assisted vestibular testing proved a statistically significant lower incidence of PVS in comparison to basic ENT examination. Accessibility of video- -assisted vestibular testing in the emergency department might allow for higher accuracy in the diagnosis of acute vertigo.

Summary Introduction: Some extrathyroidal cervical cystic lesions can be treated in selected situations by minimally invasive, low-risk method – ultrasound--guided percutaneous ethanol injection therapy (US-PEIT). Here we present 6 cases of neck cysts of various origins – ranula, thyroglossal duct cyst, branchial cleft cyst, midline neck cyst of the pyramidal lobe and dermoid cyst. Method and material: The cohort consisted of 6 patients (mean age 58 ± 13.3 years), who were followed for recurrent cervical cysts located outside the thyroid gland. The cysts were visible, palpable, aesthetically unpleasant and also mechanically compressing the surrounding tissue. After repeated evacuations, they filled in again. The patients repeatedly refused the recommended surgery and demanded an alternative solution. US-PEIT of thyroid cysts is used worldwide as a full-fledged alternative to surgical treatment. We used the same procedure for the treatment of presented neck cysts. Results: The initial volume of cysts was 2–35 mL (mean 17.7 mL); the patients underwent 1–6 sclerotization sessions (mean 3.6). The patients were followed for 12 months; the final volume of solid residue was 0.1–2 mL (mean 1 mL) representing volume reduction by 80–99% (mean 92%). Therapeutic success (volume reduction > 50%) was achieved in all patients. Conclusion: US-PEIT of cervical cysts as an alternative to surgery can be used especially in elderly patients with increased surgical risk or in patients refusing surgery. In middle-aged and older adults, the possibility of a necrotic metastatic lymph node should always be considered. Therefore, a benign cytological examination and an unsuspecting ultrasonographic and CT finding are the basic conditions before performing the ethanol ablation.
