Temporal bone fractures are a common lesion of the base of the skull. The diagnosis and management of temporal bone fractures require a multidisciplinary approach. Variable clinical presentations may arise from such fractures, ranging from an asymptomatic course to very serious consequences. The aim of this study was to report our experience with a series of patients with temporal bone fractures and to propose a diagnostic/therapeutic algorithm. This study enrolled 141 patients, 96 (68.1%) males and 45 (31.9%) females, ranging in age from 20 to 60 (average age: 39 ± 4.1 years), with temporal bone fractures who were referred to Cardarelli Hospital between 2006 and 2018. The present paper presents a classification of temporal bone fractures and typical clinical sequelae and provides an illustration of their prognosis and treatment.

Neural Deafness

The use of radiologic techniques as part of the physical examination of patients with sensory and neural deafness is reviewed. Polytomes, line drawings, and a clinical discussion of the following conditions are presented: osseous displasia, congenital deformities of the internal auditory canal and/or the labyrinth, purulent labyrinthitis, temporal bone fractures and tumors of the temporal bone and cerebellopontine angle. It is felt that current diagnostic radiologic techniques should be utilized to their fullest extent in the diagnosis and management of temporal bone problems.

Ocular Myasthenia Gravis

Ocular myasthenia is not the most severe form of myasthenia but it might cause certain difficulties to diagnose. In this article, we shall discuss the clinical presentations of ocular myasthenia, its differential diagnostics, examinations and management. Keywords: ocular myasthenia gravis, diagnosis, examination, management.

Objective:a comparative “blind” assessment of the thyroid nodules identified by ultrasound, according to the TI-RADS scale in various modifications.Materials and methods.Retrospective analysis of 149 echograms  of thyroid nodules by three independent experts was performed (the  experience of ultrasound of thyroid ultrasound for more than 7 years).Results. In solid nodules, high-specific large (more than 94%) and  small (more than 90%) ultrasound signs of thyroid cancer have been identified. The nodes are stratified according to the TI-RADS system: 1 – in the modification J.Y. Kwak et al. (2011), 2 – according to the  proposed system, taking into account small ultrasound signs of  thyroid cancer. High reproducibility of both systems are obtained. In the first system 13.7% of cancer nodes fell into the category of TI- RADS 3 (benign formations), in the second system only 5% of  cancers fell into the category of TI-RADS 3, which is important for  biopsy selection. The sensitivity of the first system was TI-RADS  82.05%, of the second system – 94.87%.Conclusions.Classification of TI-RADS can be used to interpret the  ultrasound results of thyroid nodules, taking into account both the  main large and small ultrasound signs of cancer. For its validation in  our country, it is necessary to further broad discussion of the proposed TI-RADS system.
