Since tumors of the eighth nerve are rare in children under 16 years of age (without neurofibromatosis), and radiologic studies have a low yield in identifying perilymph fistulas, the routine use of computed tomographic imaging in such children may be unjustified.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/118179740/Usefulness_of_Computed_Tomographic_Scan_in_the_Evaluation_of_Sensorineural_Hearing_Loss_in_Children","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2024-04-27T18:46:28.655-07:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":45622636,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[],"slug":"Usefulness_of_Computed_Tomographic_Scan_in_the_Evaluation_of_Sensorineural_Hearing_Loss_in_Children","translated_slug":"","page_count":null,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":45622636,"first_name":"Steven","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Handler","page_name":"Handler","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2016-03-22T14:57:04.158-07:00","display_name":"Steven Handler","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/Handler"},"attachments":[],"research_interests":[{"id":640,"name":"Radiology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Radiology"},{"id":1648,"name":"Computed Tomography","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Computed_Tomography"},{"id":22506,"name":"Adolescent","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adolescent"},{"id":26327,"name":"Medicine","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Medicine"},{"id":64568,"name":"Humans","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Humans"},{"id":64664,"name":"Sensorineural Hearing Loss","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sensorineural_Hearing_Loss"},{"id":64933,"name":"Child","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Child"},{"id":98925,"name":"Female","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Female"},{"id":111545,"name":"Male","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Male"},{"id":123472,"name":"Exploration","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Exploration"},{"id":127231,"name":"Neurofibromatosis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Neurofibromatosis"},{"id":134346,"name":"Infant","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Infant"},{"id":180673,"name":"Hearing Loss","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Hearing_Loss"},{"id":244814,"name":"Clinical Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Clinical_Sciences"},{"id":399616,"name":"Temporal","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Temporal"},{"id":469105,"name":"Retrospective Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Retrospective_Studies"},{"id":815168,"name":"Temporal Bone","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Temporal_Bone"},{"id":1029271,"name":"Abnormality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Abnormality"},{"id":1929419,"name":"Nino","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nino"},{"id":2489700,"name":"Child preschool","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Child_preschool"}],"urls":[{"id":41451189,"url":"https://doi.org/10.1001/archotol.1992.01880050047012"}]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

Design: Retrospective study. Setting: A tertiary care center. Patients: Thirty-three patients, with a mean age of 4.5 years, underwent surgical treatment for pilomatrixoma (n = 38) between 1989 and 1997. Intervention: All patients were treated surgically. In 34 cases, a direct approach was used to achieve complete removal of the lesion with (n = 11) or without (n = 23) skin resection. In the remaining 4 cases, an indirect approach via a parotidectomylike incision was used. Results: In 88% of cases, the presenting symptom was a hard, slow-growing, subcutaneous tumor. The lesion was associated with pain and inflammation in 7 cases (18%) and abscess or ulceration in 4 cases (11%). Twentynine patients presented with single nodules and 4 presented with multiple occurrences. The lesions were located on the face (cheek, eyelid, or forehead) in 20 cases (53%), on the neck in 8 cases (21%), in the parotid region in 8 cases (21%), and on the scalp in 2 cases (5%). Conclusions: Pilomatrixoma is a rare, benign skin tumor, but practitioners should be aware of its clinical features. Diagnosis is usually easy based on clinical findings, but computed tomographic scan is helpful, especially in cases involving tumors located in the parotid region. Spontaneous regression is never observed. Complete surgical excision, including the overlying skin, is the treatment of choice.","publication_date":{"day":null,"month":null,"year":1998,"errors":{}},"publication_name":"Archives of Otolaryngology–Head \u0026amp;

Surgery remains the cornerstone of treatment, although radiotherapy is important for palliation.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/69016818/Neurogenic_Sarcoma_of_the_Head_and_Neck","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2022-01-21T08:17:20.768-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":45622636,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[],"slug":"Neurogenic_Sarcoma_of_the_Head_and_Neck","translated_slug":"","page_count":null,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":45622636,"first_name":"Steven","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Handler","page_name":"Handler","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2016-03-22T14:57:04.158-07:00","display_name":"Steven Handler","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/Handler"},"attachments":[],"research_interests":[{"id":19354,"name":"Radiotherapy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Radiotherapy"},{"id":22506,"name":"Adolescent","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adolescent"},{"id":26327,"name":"Medicine","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Medicine"},{"id":64568,"name":"Humans","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Humans"},{"id":98925,"name":"Female","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Female"},{"id":111545,"name":"Male","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Male"},{"id":244814,"name":"Clinical Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Clinical_Sciences"},{"id":289271,"name":"Aged","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Aged"},{"id":295155,"name":"Middle Aged","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Middle_Aged"},{"id":382075,"name":"Adult","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adult"},{"id":1212103,"name":"Antineoplastic Agents","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Antineoplastic_Agents"},{"id":1748602,"name":"Vagus Nerve","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Vagus_Nerve"},{"id":2670176,"name":"Neurilemmoma","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Neurilemmoma"},{"id":2824511,"name":"Neurofibroma","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Neurofibroma"},{"id":3616628,"name":"Head and neck neoplasms","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Head_and_neck_neoplasms"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="69016816"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/69016816/Traumatic_perilymphatic_fistulas_in_children_etiology_diagnosis_and_management"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Traumatic perilymphatic fistulas in children: etiology, diagnosis and management" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/69016816/Traumatic_perilymphatic_fistulas_in_children_etiology_diagnosis_and_management">Traumatic perilymphatic fistulas in children: etiology, diagnosis and management</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>International journal of pediatric …</span><span>, 2001</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Post-traumatic perilymphatic fistulas have been described following ear and temporal bone injury,...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">Post-traumatic perilymphatic fistulas have been described following ear and temporal bone injury, particularly in the setting of temporal bone fractures.

Most research in this area, however, has examined whether nursing homes have or use any of a list of available technologies. We sought to develop an empirical framework for understanding the intersection between specific uses of HIT and clinical care processes. Using the nominal group technique, we conducted a series of focus groups with different types of personnel who work in nursing homes (administrators, directors of nursing, physicians, mid-level practitioners, consultant pharmacists, and aides). The resulting framework identified key domain areas that can benefit from HIT: transfer of data, regulatory compliance, quality improvement, structured clinical documentation, medication use process, and communication.

Design: Retrospective study. Setting: A tertiary care center. Patients: Thirty-three patients, with a mean age of 4.5 years, underwent surgical treatment for pilomatrixoma (n = 38) between 1989 and 1997. Intervention: All patients were treated surgically. In 34 cases, a direct approach was used to achieve complete removal of the lesion with (n = 11) or without (n = 23) skin resection. In the remaining 4 cases, an indirect approach via a parotidectomylike incision was used. Results: In 88% of cases, the presenting symptom was a hard, slow-growing, subcutaneous tumor. The lesion was associated with pain and inflammation in 7 cases (18%) and abscess or ulceration in 4 cases (11%). Twentynine patients presented with single nodules and 4 presented with multiple occurrences. The lesions were located on the face (cheek, eyelid, or forehead) in 20 cases (53%), on the neck in 8 cases (21%), in the parotid region in 8 cases (21%), and on the scalp in 2 cases (5%). Conclusions: Pilomatrixoma is a rare, benign skin tumor, but practitioners should be aware of its clinical features. Diagnosis is usually easy based on clinical findings, but computed tomographic scan is helpful, especially in cases involving tumors located in the parotid region. Spontaneous regression is never observed. Complete surgical excision, including the overlying skin, is the treatment of choice.","publication_date":{"day":null,"month":null,"year":1998,"errors":{}},"publication_name":"Archives of Otolaryngology–Head \u0026amp;

Most research in this area, however, has examined whether nursing homes have or use any of a list of available technologies. We sought to develop an empirical framework for understanding the intersection between specific uses of HIT and clinical care processes. Using the nominal group technique, we conducted a series of focus groups with different types of personnel who work in nursing homes (administrators, directors of nursing, physicians, mid-level practitioners, consultant pharmacists, and aides). The resulting framework identified key domain areas that can benefit from HIT: transfer of data, regulatory compliance, quality improvement, structured clinical documentation, medication use process, and communication.
