  • Juvenile Menière's disease

  • Roberto Filipo, Maurizio Barbara
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    29 June 2007, pp. 193-196

  • The authors report their experience in the diagnosis and treatment of Menière's disease in childhood.

    They believe it to be essential to carry out a complete battery of audio-vestibular tests, with particular reference to dehydration procedures, which in this age group are considered to be more significant for a correct diagnosis than in adults.

    After stressing the importance of eliminating other forms of disease which manifest themselves with vertigo, the authors conclude by asserting the efficacy of medical treatment with diuretics and they support the surgical procedure of endolymphatic-mastoid drainage as a valid means of contending with the hydrops.

  • Oropharyngeal anthrax*

  • N. Navacharoen, T. Sirisanthana, W. Navacharoen, K. Ruckphaopunt
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    29 June 2007, pp. 1293-1295

  • The first bacteriologically confirmed case of oropharyngeal anthrax is described. A 59-year-old male patient presented with sore throat and extensive swelling of the neck and anterior chest wall five hours after the ingestion of uncooked water buffalo meat. Marked inflammation of the oropharynx and a small necrotic area in the left tonsil were found. Culture taken from this area grew Bacillus anthracis. In anthrax-susceptible areas, this acute illness should be added to the differential diagnoses of inflammatory lesion of the oropharynx with extensive neck swelling.
