wheresonichedgehogwnt replied to your post “I start radiation in the next 30 days (well he said ‘within the month’...”

This is going to sound weird, but thank goodness your doc has a panel of their peers to take your case to, because that sounds super complex and sometimes it takes twenty opinionated experts citing papers and smacking each other down for three hours to come to a good decision in complex cases Which doesn't make it any less frustrating for you, but I'm glad a bunch of experts are going to have to come to a hard-fought consensus for you, if that makes sense?

Yah, it’s the nature of the disease though. Like no one with SDHD or SDHB would be surprised to have this happen: 

So far I have been discussed amongst: a panel of endocrinologists (within the state and Australia-wide), a team of vascular surgeons, a team of ENT surgeons, a team of a neuro/vascular/ENT surgeons (each the heads of their respective departments and taking point on my case) and registrars, and now a panel of radiation oncologists (and presumably their registrars). 

Like, for this condition there is: 

- No grading system for the severity of the disease. (Not recognised globally or per country). 

- No understanding of how the genetic defect affects the body outside of the tumours. ‘Surely Succinate Dehydrogenase defects re: the ATP cycle is bad but there’s no funding for that so just...tell us your symptoms and we’ll note them down and be unable to confirm if that’s the defect or not cheers.’ 

- Not being able to determine if the primary tumours are benign or malignant. Latest science says they are now all malignant because of the way they behave and the complexity of treatment, even in the absence of metastasis.

- No consensus on whether it should be called ‘cancer’ or not (now leaning towards ‘cancer’ - but not all my specialists agree. Surgeons call it cancer. GP calls it cancer. Endo says ‘well we don’t know yet because the paperwork isn’t official’ and RO says ‘um.’ Differs by country and field of speciality. Oncologists say ‘it’s basically cancer, but also not quite, but basically, but not - but we treat it like it is, so...baSICALLY...’) 

- No understanding of why some people’s conditions metastasise and others don’t. As in: no determining risk factors, and with no grading system, no way to go ‘stage 4 has X chance whereas stage 1 is X.’ 

- No understanding of why some get tumours younger and some don’t, they think it’s down to gene penetrance, but they’re not sure. 

- No global agreement on treatment protocols (even on surgery vs. radiotherapy vs. lutate (chemo) vs. abstaining). 

- No agreement on the basic testing protocols like should it be plasma metanephrines, 24 hour urinary metanephrines, or dopamine / tyrosine tests? (Recent leanings is plasma metanephrines, but many doctors prefer urine despite accrued case studies indicating it’s no better and more inconvenient to patient). 

- No agreement on how to respond to hypertensive crisis as caused by shoving a scalpel near tumours that dump fucktons of cortisols and adrenaline into the body if you so much as look at them wrong. Some surgeons like beta blockers. Some surgeons like intra-surgery management. Some surgeons like nothing at all, believing it’s too rare for the risks of beta blockers. 

- No agreement on what kinds of surgeons should be taking point on the surgery. Often leading to gross surgical mismanagement across the world, as say, a vascular surgeon or gastrointestinal surgeon takes something that should be at least partly-managed by an endocrinological surgeon who understands the treatment protocols for hypertensive crisis as caused by paras and pheos. It can take months-to-years for the body to adjust to a para/pheo being removed, for example, and that often needs hormonal treatment. Especially in the case of pheos where someone has SDHB. Let’s not even get started on SDHD / C etc. where they know even less. 

- No agreement on if tumour removal should be followed by radiotherapy, and no agreement on how to determine if someone is in remission. (Pro-tip, if they have the genetic defect, they never will be - but ten years with clear scans means you don’t have to have scans for the rest of your life. Sometimes. Not in Australia - no wait, not in Perth). 

Oh and finally:

- No agreement on how often surveillance scanning should be done or when it should be started if you have the genetic defect. Some say from age 5, to have whole body MRI every two years. Some say from age 8. Some say from age 11. Some say every six months, one year, three years.

Once you have active tumours, there’s: 

- No agreement on how often surveillance scanning should be done or when it should be terminated. Some say it should never be terminated (the prevailing opinion). Some say 3 months, some say 6 months, some say 12, some say 2 years, some want a varying scale

OH AND ACTUALLY FINALLY:

- No agreement on what kinds of imaging should be done. In Western Australia, it’s PET scan every five years with Octreotate, and for me a whole body MRI with gadolinium every 6 months (more regularly right now) for the rest of my life. 

Elsewhere in the world (largely funding / machine dependent), it’s CT with contrast only, or only MRI (PET and MRI is considered superior as a combination, but a lot of places won’t fork out for this). Or MRI with no contrast. Or PET with non-DOTA chelators. 

...

And so it goes on.

*

Even in the US with their shitty, shitty healthcare, people with Paras/Pheos who have the genetic defect are usually sent to major centres of research to get involved with trials and multi-disciplinary teams. 

It’s not uncommon to actually be allowed to conference call with your teams, because there’s so little consensus at every step of the way that you might as well be fucking involved. The specialists tell you to self-advocate, and they say: ‘you will have to explain this to everyone who doesn’t know about this disease.’ 

Sucks if you don’t want to do that because you’re being crushed by the disease in the first place.

Doctors common responses: ‘Para what now?’ ‘SDHD - what does that stand for?’ ‘Oh, so it’s...benign? No wait.’ 

*

At the 2017 Symposium on Para/Pheos in Australia, the world’s best specialists all flew to Sydney and basically argued diplomatically with each other (along with the patients, who were invited to the Symposium alongside specialists at a discount, because there’s so few of us that we’re often all intimately familiar with our specialists and we’re almost all in fucking case studies lol like ‘oh that’s Darren from Pacak’s study right? Oh yeah, I remember talking to him about X doctor regarding this study and didn’t he shit talk that trial...’) about the situations as they present themselves.

Sometimes they come to good decisions. Sometimes they don’t. Sometimes they throw their hands in the air and say ‘twenty people in the world have this type of tumour and you have it in an entirely new way so we just don’t fucking know.’ 

The joy of rare disease.

Oh hey, it’s rare disease day tomorrow! *thumbs up*

Rare diseases suck. I have been a case study already. I have been a ‘how not to do things’ case study (re the first surgery) and a ‘how to do things right’ case study (re the first surgery, LOL). 

It sucks to have panels discussing your case. Truly. Like on the one hand yay people get to learn things! 

On the other hand, boo they know almost nothing about my disease or how to treat me because there’s hardly any peer reviewed research that might increase my survival and quality of life odds that isn’t based entirely in a minimal number of patient studies and the statistics are lacking and highly variable.

What Are The Top 4 Reasons To Get Neck Plastic Surgery?

Why do most men and women have plastic surgeries? Commonly, eyes, mouth, nose, lips, and other facial features are the first in line for the reasons to get cosmetic procedures. But, most women and older adults get neck plastic surgery to improve their youthfulness. A neck lift surgery can benefit all people, especially if they are much concerned with how they look. On the other hand, a person may not only have neck plastic surgery for esthetic and cosmetic reasons. For example, dr Evans is an expert ENT surgeon in Sydney, who says that it is essential to get an initial consultation for any early symptoms of neck disease. 

  Facts Vs Myths About A Human’s Neck

Many individuals think that the anatomy of neck pain is just an indication to rest and relax after a long day’s work. However, recurring rashes, redness, pain at the nape, or other symptoms may mean more than fatigue. One myth that most patients say during a procedure is that their age alone contributes to the sagginess. But, skin problems, thyroid issues, hormones, postponing care, and other underlying medical conditions may be a risk for your neck. At the end of the day, having a procedure such as neck plastic surgery won’t remove the fact that everyone is aging. If you want to know more details regarding your neck, it may be best to visit your ENT (Eyes, Nose, Throat) doctor. 

  6 Reasons To Get Neck Plastic Surgery

Why do people need a neck lift or plastic surgery? It may either be for reconstructive, recovery, or esthetic purposes. A board – certified cosmetic surgeon might also provide a better overview of what to expect during your appointment. Yet, there can be more than one surgeon or doctor that may offer services for your cosmetic neck surgery. ENT doctors, head and neck surgeons, otorhinolaryngologist, and otolaryngologists are all specialists that treat the neck.  

  Remove Excess Fat That Creates Jowls

What causes excess fat in the neck? A double chin, jowls are caused by several factors like posture, loose skin, age, and genetics. Some people are naturally born with a thick neck, making it look less appealing for a person’s features. With a neck lift, it can tighten loose muscles that are prone to injuries and cuts.  

  Defines The Jawline

Another enhancement that most men and women get from an ENT doctor or surgeon is to redefine their jawline. Wrinkles, loose skin, and turkey wattles make the jawline disappear. A chiseled jawline with neck lift may give you confidence and boost your self-appreciation. 

  Prevents Neck Cancer Or Throat Disorders

Consequently, a person that ignores a checkup at otolaryngologist clinic may suffer from the results of a neck cancer or throat disorders. If you want to do more than just changing your appearance, it is our recommendation to find the nearest hospital or clinic with surgeons that can cover visible wrinkled neck for other related conditions.

  Can Be Combined With Rhinoplasty Or Lips Enhancement

Education in medicine with the advancements of cosmetic or plastic surgery has led many specialists to combine other medical operations for their patients. The takeaway with a good ENT doctor is that he or she can recommend a rhinoplasty surgeon or may even have the degree or training to do so. It is hitting two birds with one stone when a patient trusts a facial plastic expert for their youthful lift. 

  Health Diseases Of The Neck

Certain conditions of the neck can make it risky to have a face lift as soon as possible. Your facelift or liposuction may have to wait if you find these symptoms present before or during your assessment and X-ray results. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons suggests that patients should have a general checkup first from their physician before the lift and tightening of their facial area. A facelift may not be suitable for individuals suffering from TMJ, obstructed breathing airways, deviated septum or broken bones.  

  Neck Disease Symptoms:

Swelling of throat

Stiff neck

Sharp pain when lying on a surface or before sleep

Severe pain when you lift your neck

Muscle spasms, severe jaw clenching

  Are All Neck Plastic Surgeries Safe?

Surgical procedures are always invasive and involve general anesthesia to lessen the pain. It is common to feel anxious or unsafe about your upcoming rhytidectomy or Platysmaplasty since both require tedious surgery processes. Despite its procedures, a neck lift must only be done by a professional to prevent paying for a higher cost due to malpractice.

Orbital abscess as a complication of sinus infection

New Post has been published on http://sydneyentclinic.com/richard-harvey/2018/07/08/orbital-abscess-eye-sinus-infection-sydney-harvey/

Orbital abscess as a complication of sinus infection

Comprehensive management is required to treat skullbase/orbital abscess and sinus infection

The transition of the disease process and definitive treatment applied for the sinus infection after No.5.

After months of headaches, loss of vision and recurring facial abscesses, comprehensive management and endoscopic drainage of a skull base abscess has given Savannah her life back again.

Twenty-one-year-old Savannah Mealing, living regionally in New South Wales at the time, developed what was initially a simple abscess on the bridge of her nose. She had it drained but the discharge continued, with a further abscess developing on the whole left side of her face. It was treated initially at an outside institution as a limited sinus infection.

Sinusitis

Sinusitis, also known as a sinus infection or rhinosinusitis, is inflammation of the sinuses resulting in symptoms. Common symptoms include thick nasal

“I was still getting a lot of headaches and the abscesses became so severe that the left side of my face blew up like a balloon,” said Savannah. “I couldn’t see well. The antibiotics didn’t do much after my hospital stay.”

Limited sinus infection changes on the first abscess presentation

The specialist she was seeing referred her to Macquarie University Hospital-based ENT surgeon Professor Richard Harvey.

When sinusitis is more than a sinus infection

“Savannah had osteomyelitis – a bacterial infection of the bone – rather than a simple sinus infection as the source of her ongoing abscesses.

“Our approach was to drain the abscess endoscopically and then, based on sampling, put her on an extended program of appropriate antibiotics to clear the underlying infection. Antibiotics were administered through a peripherally inserted central catheter via the upper arm.

The left orbital abscess arising 6weeks after the initial presentation and still on minor changes from the sinus infection

“This kind of infection with related recurring symptoms is important to treat effectively and completely,” said Professor Harvey. “This is best achieved by a thorough clinical diagnosis in a tertiary setting, where specialist teams, advanced endoscopic approaches, and comprehensive pathology services are on hand.”

Savannah has returned home and is symptom free.

“I am back to being active, working full-time and leading a normal life,” said Savannah. “I do have to do nose flusher to keep my sinuses clear, but other than that, I’m absolutely fine.”

It is imperative to treat the underlying infection, abscess can arise in the very young (<5yro) and be a result of infection spreading down venous channels (known as thrombophlebitis) but in older patients it is usually a sign of underlying osteitis or bone infection. Surgery on the sinuses them selves is really not what is required but a treatment of the abscess and underlying infection. Although such ’emergent surgery’ on the sinuses still occurs, it is not what is required nor supported by scientific evidence.

Savannah kindly offered her details and images to help further educate us and hopefully help another future patient. Original article appears in MUH Frontiers Magazine.
