Endoscopic Partial Lateral Middle Turbinectomy versus middle Turbinat Trimming in Adult patients with Concha Bullosa
...Show More Authors

Background: Concha bullosa is an anatomical variation which defined by pneumatizaton of middle turbinate that occurred with an incidence of (5 to 25%) in the normal population.It has the potential to cause crowding and obstruction of the middle meatus and nasal cavity. There are many surgical techniques which utilized for its management. Study goal: Is to compare the formation of adhesion between endoscopic partial lateral middle turbinectomy and middle turbinate trimming in cases of concha bullosa. Patients and methods: A prospectivecomparative clinical trial was performed in the ENT department at Al-Shahid Ghazi AL Hariri Hospital in Medical City over the period from September 2016 to August 2017. Fifty nine (59) patients {24 males & 35 females} complained from long-standing history of unilateral or bilateral nasal obstruction (without signs of allergy, nasal polyps or masses) was included in this study. CT scan of nose and para-nasal sinuses revealed twenty one (21) patients had unilateral concha bullosa while thirty eight (38) of them had bilateral concha bullosa. The patients were divided randomly, into two groups regarding the type of endoscopic surgical management of concha bullosa (partial lateral middle turbinectomy versus trimming of middle turbinate). Patients were followed-up every 2 weeks for three months postoperatively (subjective assessment of the nasal airway patency and endoscopic nasal examination looking for any adhesion to lateral nasal wall). Results: The percentage of adhesion was (23.4%) in partial lateral middle turbinectomy and was (8%) in trimming of middle turbinate while the relief of nasal obstruction was (96.8%) after middle turbinate trimming and was (82.1%) after partial lateral middle turbinectomy. Conclusions: The adhesion was more statistically significant in partial lateral middle turbinectomy than middle turbinate trimming with (P value = 0.036) and the nasal airway patency improvement was more statistically significant after middle turbinate trimming than partiallateral middle turbinectomy with (P value = 0.027).

Clinical Assessment and Cytomorphometric Analysis of Buccal Mucosal Cells in Behçet’s Disease Patients
...Show More Authors

Background: Behçet’s disease (BD) is a disorder of systemic inflammatory condition. Its important features are represented by recurrent oral, genital ulcerations and eye lesions. Aims. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate and compare cytological changes using morphometric analysis of the exfoliated buccal mucosal cells in Behçet’s disease patients and healthy controls, and to evaluate the clinical characteristics of Behçet’s disease. Methods. Twenty five Behçet’s disease patients have been compared to 25 healthy volunteers as a control group. Papanicolaou stain was used for staining the smears taken from buccal epithelial cells to be analyzed cytomorphometrically. The image analysis software has been used to

Lipid Peroxidation and Antioxidant Status in β-Thalassemic Patients: Effect of Iron Overload
...Show More Authors

To study the effect of iron overload due to continuous blood transfusions on peroxidation products, such as malondialdehyde (MDA) and peroxynitrite, with evaluation of some antioxidants like, glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamine E, Ceruloplasmin, uric acid and albumin in thalassemia patients. Forty patients with thalassemia major, aged 5 to 15 years, were carried out in Abn-Alatheer Teaching Hospital in Mosul city, during the period from October 2007 to April 2008. They were on Chelation therapy with desfer­rioxamine. They were divided into two groups, the first one without iron overload (90,97±12.92), and the second one with iron overload (157.75±7.57).

Identification of Pathogenic Fungi in Renal Transplant Patients by Conventional and Molecular Methods
...Show More Authors

Opportunistic fungal infections due to the immune- compromised status of renal transplant patients are related to high rates of morbidity and mortality regardless of their minor incidence. Delayed in identification of invasive fungal infections (IFIs), will lead to delayed treatment and results in high mortality in those populations. The study aimed to assess the frequency of invasive fungal infection in kidney transplant recipients by conventional and molecular methods. This study included 100 kidney transplant recipients (KTR) (75 males, and 25 females), collected from the Centre of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation in the Medical City of Baghdad. Blood samples were collected during the period from June 2018 to April 2019. Twent
