Objective To discuss endoscopic surgical treatment and its effect of intranasal contact point headaches.Methods Twe(n)ty-five patients with intranasal contact point headaches were treated by endoscopic rhinoplasty of nasal cavity,including middle turbinoplasty,functional resection of ostiomeatal complex,endoscopic submucous septoplasty.Achieved organic combination of the above surgery methods according to the different results of the CT scan and endoscope,the surgical procedure waft designed individually.Results All patients were followed up for 9 to 12 months.Recovery was 21 cases(84.00%),efficacy was 3 cases(12.00%),inefficacy was 1 case(4.00%),the rate of fully recovered without serious complication was 96.00%(24/25).Conclusions Intranagal contact point headaches is a sort of the nasal headaches as a result of multi abnormality of nasal cavity structure.Endoscopic rhinoplagty is an effective treatment by means of reconstructing the balance of bilateral nasal cavity and improving its function.

Objective To investigate the pathogenesis,diagnosis and therapy of intranasal contact point headache.Method The clinical data of 73 patients with contact point headache between the septum and the lateral nasal wall were retrospectively reviewed and the anatomical abnormality of nasal carity was determined by CT scanning of the sinuses and endoscopy.All the patients underwent surgical intervention for correcting the abnormal anatomical conditions of nasal cavity.Results The headache disappeared in 67 of the 73 patients after topical anesthesia,and in the 6 remainders after maxillary sinus puncture.Among the anatomic variations in all the cases,endoscopy revealed that 31 sides there was hypertrophy of ethmoidal bulla,hypertrophy and medial deriation of processus uncinatus in 59 cases,abnormality of middle turbinate in 91 sides,and upper nasal septal deviation in 51 cases.Among the 73 cases,there was confact of two or mose sites of mucosa of the abnormalities in 57 cases.The headache disappeared in 64 patients(87.7%) one week after operation,and it was reduced in 9 cases(12.3%).12-month follow-up showed recovery in 59 cases(80.8%),in 12 cases(16.4%) it was partially relieved,and in 2 cases(2.7%) there was no effect.Conclusions Abnormal nasal septa,enlarged turbinates and other anatomic abnormalities are the most common findings in contact point headache.Pressure due to mucosal contact between the septum and lateral nasal wall mucosa,and maxillary sinus orifice occlusion are the major causes of contact point headaches.Endoscopy,CT scanning,and topical anesthesia are ideal in diagnosis of intranasal contact point headache.

Objective:To analyze the nosazontology of pharyngeal paraesthesia and investigate the treatment. Method: Two hundred and twelve misdiagnosed pharyngeal paraesthesia patients were investigated by history inquiry,routine examination, 24-hour esophageal pH monitoring, barium X-ray of the oesophagus, anxietas-athy-mia private measuring scale, coefficient of variation of the R-R(CVR-R), bioavailable testosterone detection(Bio-T), erection experiment and questionnaire about man climacteric syndrome. The concomitant symptoms and positions of pharyngeal paresthesia were also studied. We adopted individuallied sequential multi-therapy for every patient according to the cause of disease. Result:The cause of disease within 212 cases of pharyngeal paraesthesia included 62 psychictrauma,32 endocrine system disease,106 upper gastrointestinol disease, circulatory disease,9 circulatory disease,3 idiopathic. With individualized treatment, 110 cases had fully recovered, 63 cases excellence and 31 cases utility,and the efficiency rate was 96.23%. Conclusion:Pharyngeal paraesthesia can be caused by several factors. Thorough examination and comprehensive analysis should be applied to those incurable patient who has been treated for a long time. Short course of treatment and irrational drug use are the main causes of short term recurrence and unsatisfactory curative effect.
