To evaluate the effectiveness of triamcinolone injections in treating external magnet displacement in cochlear implant (CI) patients with adhesions problems of their processor....
We present seven CI patients with magnet adhesion issues who presented to our tertiary care neurotology clinic. None of the patients had a history of head trauma, postimplant MRI, or surgery in the he...
Triamcinolone 40 mg/mL injected subcutaneously at the CI magnet site....
Reduction of scalp thickness and successful magnet retention....
Our cohort consisted of seven patients (eight implant sites) of which five were overweight or obese. The temporoparietal scalp thickness measured on preoperative CT scans varied between 8.4 and 15.9 m...
The significant improvement in CI retention shows that triamcinolone injections are effective in making the subcutaneous tissue thinner and allowing magnet retention....
Bleomycin is a known chemotherapeutic agent whose beneficial effects have been recently shown in the treatment of keloids and hypertrophic scars, however, it is unclear how effective it is in comparis...
Since the 1970s, intramuscular triamcinolone (IMT) has been available as an option for systemic corticosteroid use in dermatology. Although shown to be safe and effective in early studies, this method...
Hypertrophic scars (HTS) and keloids are pathologic scars that are products of a wound healing pathway error attributed to genetic and inflammatory causes (Leventhal et al., Arch Facial Plast Surg 8(6...
This unicentric randomized clinical trial was designed to compare the surgical outcomes of mitomycin C-enhanced trabeculectomy (MMC-TRAB) with and without subtenon triamcinolone acetonide (TAAC) injec...
To assess the efficacy and safety of periocular injections of methotrexate versus triamcinolone in the management of active thyroid-associated orbitopathy....
Prospective, double-masked, randomized clinical trial....
Participants with bilateral active, moderate-to-severe thyroid-associated orbitopathy were randomly assigned to receive three periocular injections of 7.5 mg methotrexate in one orbit and three perioc...
Among the enrolled 25 patients, 18 patients completed the study. A statistically significant reduction of the mean clinical activity score was detected in both arms (from 5.2 ± 0.89 at baseline to 0.9...
Periocular injections of methotrexate represent an effective and safe alternative option for the management of active, moderate-to-severe thyroid-associated orbitopathy. Although no serious complicati...
The aim of this study was to compare posterior subtenon triamcinolone (PSTA) application and intravitreal dexamethasone phosphate (DEX) implant in the treatment of diabetic macular edema (DME) in vitr...
This retrospective study included 64 (48.12%) patients who received PSTA and 69 (51.88%) patients who received DEX implants in DME treatment after vitrectomy. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), cent...
All postinjection CMT values in both groups were lower than the preinjection value (p < 0.05 for all). There were statistically significant increases in all postinjection BCVAs of the DEX group and po...
Both intravitreal DEX and PSTA administration are effective in the treatment of DME after vitrectomy. However, visual improvement persisted longer, and the need for additional injections was less in p...
To compare the rates of complications in eyes that received a dexamethasone (DEX) implant (0.7 mg) or intravitreal triamcinolone (IVT) (2 mg) to treat postvitrectomy macular edema (ME)....
Retrospective, comparative, case series....
A total of 148 eyes (147 patients); 75 eyes (75 patients) in the DEX group and 73 eyes (72 patients) in the IVT group....
The medical records of patients who received an intravitreal DEX 0.7 mg (Ozurdex) or triamcinolone (2 mg) (Triesence) for postvitrectomy ME between July 2014 and December 2021 with a minimum follow-up...
The rates of complications....
The follow-up duration was 2.5 ± 1.6 years, with no significant difference between the groups (P = 0.398). The rate of transient ocular hypotony per eye and per injection was significantly higher in t...
The incidence of ocular hypotony, which causes transient visual impairment, was significantly higher in vitrectomized eyes treated with DEX compared with eyes treated with IVT. Injections other than t...

Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is a common oral lesion with unknown etiology. Several treatment strategies are introduced for the treatment of RAS. In this regard, the therapeutic effects of Rhus...
s. Twenty-two patients with RAS were divided into two groups (...
Intergroup comparisons indicate that there is no difference between the experimental and the control group (...
The application of Rhus coriaria could significantly reduce lesion size and pain in patients with RAS. Accordingly, Rhus coriaria can be an effective medication for RAS treatment....
Local triamcinolone (TA) injection is widely used to prevent stricture formation after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). However, stricture develops in up to 45% of patients despite this prophyl...
Patients who underwent esophageal ESD and local TA injection and who were comprehensively assessed for lesion- and ESD-related factors were included in the study. Multivariate analyses were conducted ...
A total of 203 patients were included in the analysis. Multivariate analysis identified residual mucosal width ≤5 mm (odds ratio [OR], 29.0; P < .0001) or 6 to 10 mm (OR, 3.7; P = .04), history of che...
We identified predictors of stricture after ESD and local TA injection. Local TA injection prevented stricture formation after ESD in low-risk patients but was not sufficient to prevent stricture in h...
