(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2018) Domka, Wojciech; Aebisher, David; Truszkiewicz, Adrian; Bartusik-Aebisher, Dorota
Introduction. The objective of this study is to discuss the potential of plants species in medical applications. Aim. The main purpose of this study is to discuss ethnobotanically selected plants used in medicine. Materials and methods. We analysed literature and collected information, data, and examples of selected plants used in medicine. Results. The literature shows that for several decades, the properties of medicinal plants have been investigated and reported in the biomedical and pharmaceutical literature. Conclusions. This review includes studies on plants material. The properties of various plants physiology were discuuses with the option for the use in phythotherapy.
The larynx cancer in vitro study by MRI relaxtion time of water
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2020) Domka, Wojciech; Ożóg, Łukasz; Bartusik-Aebisher, Dorota; Aebisher, David
Introduction. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the larynx accounts for a significant percentage of all head and neck cancers. Aim. In this paper we determine the differences in magnetic resonance relaxation time (MRI) of water in cancerous and healthy larynx tissues. Material and methods. This study is aimed on T2 MRI modalities for monitoring morphology of larynx tissue. Results. Our results showed that T2 MRI relaxation time measured in larynx tissue can be used to assess early cancer condition of larynx tissues. The changes of T2 MRI correspond to tumor growth within normal tissue. Conclusion. The study showed potential of MRI for the non-invasive monitoring of larynx condition.
The potential of phythotherapy in otorhinolaryngology
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2018) Domka, Wojciech; Aebisher, David; Bober, Zuzanna; Ożóg, Łukasz; Bartusik-Aebisher, Dorota
Introduction. The objective of this paper is to review the evidence of the use of herbs in phytotherapy. Aim. To discuss plant properties and applications in otorhinolaryngology. Materials and methods. We analysed literature and collected information of phythotherapy in otorhinolaryngology. Results. The databases were searched using various keywords such as phytotherapy, otorhinolaryngology, and herbs such as: echinacea, eucalyptus, garlic, ginkgo, ginseng, kava, pelargonium sidoides, rosemary, spirulina, St John’s wort, and thyme. Conclusions. Due to the beneficial impact of meicinal plants in medicine there is a growing interest in analytical identification and quantification for clinical medicine and forensic toxicology.
Tumor of the pharynx – an unexpected diagnosis
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2017) Ura-Sabat, Katarzyna; Domka, Wojciech; Gamrot-Wrzoł, Marta; Szuber, Krzysztof
Introduction. Head and neck haemangiomas occur quite rarely. These are benign lesions, often involving the pharynx and larynx. They almost always pose a diagnostic and therapeutic problem. Case description. This paper describes the case of an asymptomatic internal carotid artery aneurysm manifested by a throat tumour. A 78-year old woman with sudden deafness and vertigo was additionally diagnosed with a throat tumour. After radiological diagnosis of a haemangioma, the patient refused surgery. This article presents diagnostic methods and various types of treatments for head and neck haemangiomas. Attention was paid to the possibility of serious complications when deciding on surgical intervention of haemangiomas without a confirmed diagnosis. Conclusion. Suspicion of head and neck haemangiomas necessitates using all available diagnostic methods. The treatment plan should take into account the pace of progression, the patient’s age and co-morbid conditions.
