Dr. Grossan's Ear, Nose and Throat Consultant Pages Cystic Fibrosis and Sinusitis Medicine has advanced the treatment of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) significantly in the past 10 years. Various measures that clear the lungs are becoming standardized. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation as well as other support groups have been contributing not only to uncovering a cure but in helping the patient and their families as well. In 1989 the gene etiology of this condition was recognized and gene therapy is now being actively pursued. The CF patient fails to have normal mucus clearance. Thick tenacious mucus keeps bacteria from being cleared and prevents antibiotics from being effective. Clearance of mucus from the chest therefore is a paramount treatment objective. Various physical therapy methods include chest percussion, forceful exhalation, various dilators, postural drainage. The flutter device uses sound vibration to help reduce the thickness of the mucus. Inhalation of drugs that break down the structure of the mucus are in use. A similar thick fluid causes sinus infections. Nasal polyps are common. This is a type of bag of water where the liquid is maintained within the cell so that the cell expands and blocks the nose. A mucocele can develop, often in the frontal sinus. This is a similar bag of water within a membrane that expands and puts pressure on the sinus wall. Headaches in the frontal sinus area - above the eyes - is a common sign.

ENT Link ENT Health Information Sinus Pediatric Sinusitis Fact Sheet: Pediatric Sinusitis Your child’s sinuses are not fully developed until age 20. Although small, the maxillary (behind the cheek) and ethmoid (between the eyes) sinuses are present at birth. Unlike in adults, pediatric sinusitis is difficult to diagnose because symptoms can be subtle and the causes complex. How Do I Know When My Child Has Sinusitis? The following symptoms may indicate a sinus infection in your child: a “cold” lasting more than 10 to 14 days, sometimes with a low-grade fever thick yellow-green nasal drainage post-nasal drip, sometimes leading to or exhibited as sore throat, cough, bad breath, nausea and/or vomiting headache, usually in children age six or older irritability or fatigue swelling around the eyes Young children have immature immune systems and are more prone to infections of the nose, sinus, and ears, especially in the first several years of life. These are most frequently caused by viral infections (colds), and they may be aggravated by allergies. However, when your child remains ill beyond the usual week to ten days, a serious sinus infection is likely. You can reduce the risk of sinus infections for your child by reducing exposure to known environmental allergies and pollutants such as tobacco smoke, reducing his/her time at day care, and treating stomach acid reflux disease.

ENT Link ENT Health Information Sinus Doctor, What Is Sinusitis? Doctor, What Is Sinusitis? Sinus Facts Have you ever had a cold or allergy attack that wouldn't go away? If so, there's a good chance you actually had sinusitis. Experts estimate that 37 million people are afflicted with sinusitis each year, making it one of the most common health conditions in America. That number may be significantly higher, since the symptoms of bacterial sinusitis often mimic those of colds or allergies, and many sufferers never see a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment with an antibiotic. What is sinusitis? Acute bacterial sinusitis is an infection of the sinus cavities caused by bacteria. It usually is preceded by a cold, allergy attack, or irritation by environmental pollutants. Unlike a cold, or allergy, bacterial sinusitis requires a physician's diagnosis and treatment with an antibiotic to cure the infection and prevent future complications. Normally, mucus collecting in the sinuses drains into the nasal passages. When you have a cold or allergy attack, your sinuses become inflamed and are unable to drain. This can lead to congestion and infection. Diagnosis of acute sinusitis usually is based on a physical examination and a discussion of your symptoms. Your doctor also may use x-rays of your sinuses or obtain a sample of your nasal discharge to test for bacteria. When Acute Becomes Chronic Sinusitis When you have frequent sinusitis, or the infection lasts three months or more, it could be chronic sinusitis. Symptoms of chronic sinusitis may be less severe than those of acute; however, untreated chronic sinusitis can cause damage to the sinuses and cheekbones that sometimes requires

The sinuses are attached to the nasal passages via small tubes, which allow drainage to take place. When these small tubes become blocked, sinus problems begin. Sinusitis occurs when bacteria infects the sinus cavities, usually due to blockage of the small tubes attached to your nasal passages. This causes an inflammation of your sinuses, which stops proper drainage.

A: According to the American Academy of Otolaryngology, Acute Sinusitis is a short-term condition that responds well to antibiotics and decongestants; chronic sinusitis is characterized by at least four recurrences of acute sinusitis. Either medication or surgery are possible treatments. Q: How many people does sinusitis afflict each year? A: Approximately 37 million Americans suffer from sinusitis every year. Sinusitis seems to be growing too. According to a survey of consumers and primary care physicians (published in March 2002), 42 percent of people surveyed reported having at least one sinus infection in the last 12 months, compared to 33 percent the previous year. Many also reported that their sinusitis began with an allergy (39 percent) or cold (28 percent). The survey is part of a sinusitis public education campaign endorsed by the American Academy of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery. Q: Do you have a list of sinusitis facts and statistics?

Sinus Infection Center Sinus infections are a serious matter in the United States, afflicting an estimated 37 million Americans every year. Sinusitis is so widespread that Americans with the problem miss an average of four work days a year. In addition, there are over 500,000 sinus surgeries performed each year. Sinusitis Defined According to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology: Sinusitis is an acute or chronic inflammation of the nasal sinuses-the hollow cavities found within the cheek bones and near the eyes. The inflammation is usually triggered by inadequate draining due to allergies, infections or structural problems of the nose such as narrow drainage passages or a deviated septum. Sinuses help warm, moisten and filter the air in the nasal cavity and also add resonance to certain sounds. The three major signs indicating sinusitis are listed below. If you recognize a symptom in yourself or your child, see an specialist for a proper examination and diagnosis. Your cold has lasted more than seven days and is accompanied by cough, fever, headache, toothache, facial pain, green or grey nasal drainage, or post-nasal drip.

The paranasal sinuses are the air-filled spaces in the bones of the skull that open into the nose. One pair lies in the cheeks and another in the forehead. There are also a variable number of sinuses between the eyes and the nose. Sinusitis is the infection of these spaces. Sinusitis may be a short illness (acute sinusitis) or a condition that continues for months or years (chronic sinusitis). Chronic sinusitis is relatively uncommon nowadays. What causes sinuitis? Acute sinusitis comes on following a cold If acute sinusitis fails to clear up completely, it may develop into chronic sinusitis. Alternatively, chronic sinusitis may develop without any preceding illness. In both cases the development of infection follows blockage of the opening from the involved sinus into the nose.

FAGNAN, M.D., Oregon Health Sciences University, Portland, Oregon A patient information handout on caring for acute sinusitis, written by Elizabeth Smoots, M.D. , is provided on page 1805. S inusitis is a common ailment: 16 percent of the U.S. population reports a diagnosis of sinusitis annually, accounting for 16 million office visits. Public interest in sinusitis is exemplified by a 1997 Internet search using Alta Vista, which found 4,960 matches. Furthermore, sinusitis is a costly disorder: about $2 billion is spent annually on medications to treat nasal and sinus problems. The National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NAMCS) lists sinusitis as the fifth most common diagnosis for which an antibiotic is prescribed. Sinus Anatomy and Function The function of the paranasal sinuses is not clear, but theories include humidification and warming of inspired air, lightening of the skull, improvement of vocal resonance, absorption of shock to the face or skull, and secretion of mucus to assist with air filtration. The four paranasal sinuses (maxillary, frontal, ethmoid and sphenoid) develop as outpouchings of the nasal mucosa. They remain connected to the nasal cavity via narrow ostia with a lumen diameter of 1 to 3 mm (Figure 1) . The sinuses are lined with mucoperiosteum, which is thinner and less richly supplied with blood vessels and glands than the mucosa of the nasal cavity. Cilia sweep mucus toward the ostia. The ostia of the frontal, maxillary and anterior ethmoid sinuses open into the osteomeatal complex, which lies in the middle meatus lateral to the middle turbinate. The posterior ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses open into the superior meatus and sphenoethmoid recess. The osteomeatal complex is important because the frontal, ethmoid and maxillary sinuses drain through this area.

E NFERMEDADES M AS C ORRIENTES SINUSITIS S UMARIO DE LA GUIA MEDICA La sinusitis es la inflamación dolorosa de las membranas mucosas de los senos paranasales, que se origina después de alguna infección bacteriana o vírica. Puede aliviarse mediante antibióticos, aunque en algunos casos debe recurrirse a una cirugía menor. L a sinusitis afecta sobre todo los senos nasales, frontales y maxilares que son pequeñas cavidades ubicadas en el interior de los huesos de la cara y en el hueso frontal. Las cavidades sinusales están conectadas a la nariz y a la laringe superior y, por lo tanto, las infecciones que se producen a este nivel pueden difundirse hacia los senos. Esto ocurre, en general, cuando un resfriado común, que es una infección vírica, se complica con otra infección bacteriana secundaria. La sinusitis es una enfermedad común y hay numerosas personas susceptibles de padecerla, sobre aquellas que padecen frecuentes resfriados o rinitis y las que tienen el septo, o pared situada entre los conductos nasales, desviado, si ello dificulta el drenaje. CAUSAS La nariz y los senos nasales están cubiertos por células que, al inflamarse a causa de un resfriado o de una gripe, se engruesan y secretan mayor cantidad de moco, o que puede ocluir los orificios de drenaje de los senos. Esto favorece el desarrollo de infecciones en el interior de los senos. Así las bacterias que viven de forma habitual en la nariz y en los senos se multiplican, y estos últimos se llenan de pus amarillo o verdoso. Este pus, sometido a presión, es el que desencadena los síntomas de la sinusitis.

View All You're coughing and sneezing and tired and achy You think that you might be getting a cold. Later, when the medicines you've been taking to relieve the symptoms of the common cold are not working and you've now got a terrible headache, you finally drag yourself to the doctor. After listening to your history of symptoms and perhaps doing a sinus X-ray, the doctor says you have sinusitis. Sinusitis simply means inflammation of the sinuses, but this gives little indication of the misery and pain this condition can cause. Chronic sinusitis, sinusitis that recurs frequently, affects an estimated 32 million people in the United States. Americans spend millions of dollars each year for medications that promise relief from their sinus symptoms. Sinuses are hollow air spaces, of which there are many in the human body. When people say, "I'm having a sinus attack," they usually are referring to symptoms in one or more of four pairs of cavities, or spaces, known as paranasal sinuses. These cavities, located within the skull or bones of the head surrounding the nose, include the frontal sinuses over the eyes in the brow area, the maxillary sinuses inside each cheekbone, the ethmoids just behind the bridge of the nose and between the eyes, and behind them, the sphenoids in the upper region
