[Inverted papilloma of paranasal sinuses. Our experience of 15 cases. Review of literature].

Fifteen cases of nasosinusal inverted papilloma treated in our department from 1994 to 2000 are reported. The most frequent initial symptom was unilateral nasal obstruction. Some others symptoms were rhinorrea, facial pain and self limited epistaxis. The most frequent surgical procedure performed was the paralateral rhinotomy with medial maxillectomy. The median average for the follow up was 28 months, being diagnosed one recurrence. The paralateral rhinotomy with a medial maxillectomy, under functional endoscopic nasosinusal techniques are being more and more used, decreasing the indications of open techniques.

[An exceptional form of cranio-facial fibrous dysplasia: fibrous dysplasia of middle turbinate].

Fibrous dysplasia is a rare bone disease that can be misdiagnosed because of the slowness of its symptoms. Although it is a benign disease its clinical behaviour can be severe, with possibility of local growth and malignant degeneration into osteosarcoma. An uncommon case of fibrous dysplasia is reported, affecting only the middle turbinate. Diagnostic and therapeutic problems are discussed.

[Measurement of cardiac output by thermodilution with a diode as a temperature sensor].

An area integrator for the thermodilution curve in cardiac output measurement is described. A new temperature sensor is used, a diode with some advantages over the thermistor normally used. The main advantages are: easy calibration and replacement, and broad range of linearity. The cardiac output values obtained in dog with the integrator follow a linear relationship with those of the flowmeter. In simultaneous measurements the correlation is R = 0.96. Using a diode as temperature sensor a modification of the Steward Hamilton equation (used for thermistor) is necessary. With this new equation a monogram is performed to calculate the cardiac output from the area given by the numerical integrator.
