Finally, of great interest would also be the degree to which abnormal Ta and Tb lateralisation is associated with atypical ear preferences in dichotic listening paradigms.
To identify the frequency of typical (headache and dizziness) and common atypical (ear fullness, pressure, pain, tinnitus, facial fullness, and nasal congestion) migraine symptoms as chief complaints among patients presenting to otolaryngology clinic.
Rosowski et al. (2012) found that air leaks could be identified in reflectance measurements by excessive noise in power reflectance at low frequencies, an atypical ear-canal impedance phase, and an increase in power reflectance at low frequencies with repeated measurements as the seal in the ear canal improved with foam tip expansion over time.
The objective of our study is to show the frequency of typical (headache and dizziness) and common atypical (ear fullness, pressure, pain, tinnitus, facial fullness, and nasal congestion) migraine symptoms as chief complaints among patients presenting or referred to otolaryngology clinics.
In the differential diagnosis, other diseases that might provoke similar AN symptoms must be excluded, such as cervicalgia, TMD, migraine, continuous hemicrania, otitis, trigeminal neuralgia, atypical facial pain, "red ear syndrome", affection of the parotid gland, temporal arteritis and odontalgia.
D ear E ditor, Chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatosis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperature (CANDLE) syndrome is a new autoinflammatory syndrome caused by mutations in the gene for proteasome subunit, beta type, 8 (PSMB8).
50 patients (46.3%) presented for an atypical chief complaint out of which 34.2% were ear symptoms (mostly ear pain and fullness) and 14.8% nasal symptoms (mostly nasal congestion and sinus pressure) and 2.7% had ear and nose atypical chief complaint.
We report on the case of a 60-year-old woman with complaints of fatigue, coughing, anorexia, atypical chest pain, recurrent fever, and also ear pain and hearing loss.
Clinically, this atypical PRRS differs greatly from the general "blue ear" disease, and was characterized by the following symptoms: high fever (40 42°C), petechiae, erythematous blanching rash, etc. Particularly, in these atypical PRRS outbreaks, many adult pigs and some pregnant sows, died as a result of the infection.
Lance [3, 4] suggested that red ear might be associated with upper cervical disorders, atypical trigeminal and glossopharyngeal neuralgia, temporomandibular joint dysfunction and local axon reflexes.
However, this patient did experience associated ipsilateral ear redness and probable edema, therefore, she did have autonomic signs, albeit atypical ones.
