Abstract

The second European Rhinology Reserach Forum organized by the European Forum for Research and Education in Allergy and Airway Diseases (EUFOREA) was held on 9-10th November 2017, combined with a specific symposium on air pollution and mobile Health technology (mHealth) with the GARD (Global Alliance against Chronic Respiratory Diseases) initiative of WHO (World Health Organization). Physicians from different specialities, researchers, as well as patients and industry representatives from more than 40 countries took part in the Forum. Relevant topics were debated with the aim of allowing the implementation of precision medicine (PM) in daily respiratory care. All debates started with positioning the current state of the art: identification of current gaps in practice, the current consensus and the need for implementation of novel approaches such as endotype-driven treatment, patient empowerment and eHealth tools. This report provides a summry of the outcomes of the brainstorming sessions of the European Rhinology Research Forum 2017, highlighting the research needs in PM, with personalized care, prediction of success of treatment, participation of the patient and prevention of disease as key drivers for improving current clinical practice.

2. Wegener's granulomatosis presenting as otomastoiditis. A case report

Abstract

A 55-year-old male presented with left-sided otorrhoea, hearing loss and tinnitus of 3 months duration. On clinical examination polypoid tissue was seen prolapsing in the external ear canal. A CT scan of the mastoid cells and middle ear showed otomastoiditis with osteolysis. Oral antibiotic therapy and eardrops were started. When a facial nerve paresis appeared one month later, a mastoidectomy was performed. The mastoid cells and middle ear were filled with a connective tissue-like substance. Postoperative corticosteroids were administered. Despite the therapy the facial nerve problem aggravated and the patient developed severe parietotemporal headache, meningeal irritation and somnolence. The diagnosis of neurosarcoidosis was hypothesised. Blood analysis, including c-ANCA's, culture of the otorrhoea and biopsies of the connective tissue were inconclusive. A CT scan of the brain showed thickening of the left tentorium. A biopsy of the dura indicated a diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis. The patient was treated with immunosuppressive medication with satisfactory results.

Abstract

Laparoscopic splenectomy remains a challenging procedure, as haemorrhage causes the most complications. In order to reduce this risk, preoperative selective embolisation of the splicing artery has been performed in a series of six successful laparoscopic splenectomies in one male and five female patients with a mean age of 34.6 years (range 17-53 yrs). Indications for surgery were immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP)(n = 3), non-Hodgkin lymphoma with secondary haemolytic anaemia (n = 1), autoimmune haemolytic anaemia (n = 1) and congenital spherocytosis (n = 1). The mean splenic length was 12.3 cm (range 9-16 cm) and no accessory spleens were identified. Mean operative time was 96.7 min (range 90-150 min). There were no deaths nor haemorrhagic or septic complications. Recovery after surgery was excellent with a mean hospital stay of 5.2 days (range 2-10 days). We conclude that selective embolisation of the splenic artery, just prior to laparoscopic splenectomy adds to the safety, and operating time may be shortened.
