The choanal atresia is a congenital malformation and his surgical procedure need to clarified. Ten anatomical specimens have been studied by anatomical measures and CT scan evaluation of the choanal for amend.

Epidermal plugs of the external auditory canal were described initially by Toynbe in 1850, and since that time epidermal plugs and canal cholesteatomas have often been classified under the same heading. However, auditory canal cholesteatoma represents a separate clinical entity, although its pathogenicity remains unrecognized. Therapy may be medical or surgical, but a more eclectic therapeutic approach is to be preferred. Two recent cases of auditory canal cholesteatoma are reported.
Twenty patients with laryngeal cancer were explored by tomography and a CT scan. Results were compared between cases and, for operated patients, with histosurgical findings. Results of this study and a review of the literature suggest that the CT scan is the most adapted examination for exploration of the paraglottic and hypothyroepiglottic spaces, but that caution should be exercised when assessing results.
