Abstract:
Ear canal foreign bodies are commonly encountered in the field of otolaryngology. This is especially common in the pediatric otolaryngology discipline. As a foreign body, cyanoacrylate glue (also called \"super glue\") can be difficult to remove and cause significant patient distress. Multiple solvents can be described as aiding in removing such foreign bodies. Here, a case is described in which hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid were used sequentially to remove cyanoacrylate glue from the external auditory canal. We describe a technique allowing en bloc removal of the cyanoacrylate glue. Thankfully, the patient\'s hearing returned to baseline post-operatively with minimal complications. Overall, cyanoacrylate glue can be a very difficult foreign body to remove from the ear canal. In this case, the sequential use of hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid to soak the glue was a safe and successful method to facilitate glue removal from the ear canal.
摘要:
耳道异物是耳鼻咽喉科领域中常见的。这在小儿耳鼻喉科学科中尤其常见。作为异物,氰基丙烯酸酯胶(也称为“强力胶”)可能难以去除,并导致严重的患者痛苦。多种溶剂可被描述为有助于去除此类异物。这里,描述了一种情况,其中依次使用过氧化氢和乙酸从外耳道中去除氰基丙烯酸酯胶。我们描述了一种允许整体去除氰基丙烯酸酯胶的技术。谢天谢地,患者的听力在术后恢复到基线,并发症最少。总的来说,氰基丙烯酸酯胶可能是很难从耳道中去除的异物。在这种情况下,连续使用过氧化氢和乙酸浸泡胶水是一种安全和成功的方法,以促进胶水从耳道去除。
