Our results support that steroids significantly decrease periorbital ecchymosis and periorbital edema in open rhinoplasty with osteotomy. Additionally, our results suggest that if the dose of steroids is adjusted according to body weight, there is no significant benefit in a single dose of 3 mg/kg of methylprednisolone over a lower dose of 1 mg/kg and there is no need for higher doses of methylprednisolone administration.

Asthma seems to facilitate the formation of the paradoxical dysfunction in the larynx as the prevalence of PVFMD in asthma patients is significantly higher than in patients with out asthma.

Antituberculosis treatment clearly improved the voice outcomes of laryngeal tuberculosis patients, according to self-assessment, perceptual analysis and acoustic analysis.

The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of laryngeal tuberculosis (LT) among patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis. A total of 319 patients under treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis were subjected to laryngoscopy. Five patients (1.5%) with LT were identified. Odynophagia was the most common complaint, followed by alteration in voice. The larynx returned to its normal appearance in 3-8 months (average 18 weeks) by antituberculous medication. Physicians dealing with pulmonary tuberculosis should keep in mind that symptoms of laryngeal involvement may be minor, and laryngoscopy should always be performed when laryngeal involvement is suspected in order to isolate highly infectious patients. Response to antituberculous medication is usually late in LT and diagnosis by "wait and watch" policy will cause a significant delay in the diagnosis of a possible larynx carcinoma.

Postoperative administration of dexpanthenol significantly accelerates the wound healing process and decreases tonsillectomy-related pain complaints.
