From literature review concerning diagnosis and management of isolated sphenoid fungal sinusitis we found that this isolated lesion is extremely rare especially in immunocompetent patients; it is frequently difficult to diagnose, as patients present with nonspecific symptoms such as headach, visual disturbance and cranial nerve palsies. Diagnosis of the disease is typically not made until advanced imaging has been developed. We presented a case of isolated fungal sinusitis of left sphenoid sinus with headach and diplopia, treated by endoscopic sphenoidotomy with the help of the navigation system, after which recovery was full.

To evaluate the symptoms, causes, methods of management and efficacy of this methods of isolated sphenoid sinus disease. Isolated sphenoid sinus disease is uncommon, but it may be critical and a cause of important ocular and neurological complications.
We conducted a randomized clinical trial on 32 subjects in 2 groups with chronic diseases of the sphenoid sinus (each consisting of 16 patients) to evaluate CT navigation during Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery. All patients registered in our st udy met the widely accepted criteria to be treated with FESS. 16 patients were operated on with FESS with CT navigation while 16 patients were operated on with FESS without navigation. The result drawn showed no significant statistical difference in the outcome of the operations when we used the CT navigation during FESS compared with the time we did not use it. However, we believe it is an asset to the ENT surgeon in difficult and critical operations like the sphenoid sinus surgery as it brings precision and peace to the surgeon. We recommend using CT navigation as a useful adjunct added to the surgeon’s knowledge & experience but not as a replacement to these necessities.
We decided to carry out this study to highlight the risk factors, clinical presentations and prognosis for AFS in the neonatal care department at Al-Assad University Hospital in Lattakia, and thus reaching conclusions and recommendations that avoid high incidence rates of this lifethreatening condition. The aim of the study was to shed light on the clinical and laboratory characteristics of the AFS when developing the diagnosis and to study its potential risk factors for its occurrence of neonates in the department of neonatal care. The gold standard for diagnosing AFS in our study was the positive results of blood culture by isolating fungal yeasts from all neonates of the study sample.
This study include isolation and the identification of Coagulase – Negative Staphylococci from milk samples collected from clinical and sub-clinical bovine mastitis (180 apparently normal milk samples, and 130 bovine with clinical mastitis) , whic h is detected by CMT and bacteriological isolation 368(%45.77) isolates of CNS were obtained,which belonging to 8 species which were: S. chromogenes 80(21.86%) , S . xylosus 86 (23.5%), S. epidermidis 65 (17.76%),S.haemolyticus 64 (17.49%), S. sciuri 32 (8.74%), S. saprophyticus 19 (5.19%),S.hominis 18(4.91%), and S.lentus 2(0.55%).
Fifty-one female and thirty-three male patients who suffered from UTI and attended Al-Thawra General Hospital at Ibb City in Yemen, were examined for the effects of different antibiotics on E. coli isolated from the mid-stream urine samples. The results showed a variable degree of resistance revealed by E. coli isolates. It ranged between ١٠٠٪ ((against Penicillin G and Ampicillin) and zero resistance ((against Kanamycin, Ciprofloxacin, and Gentamicin). Other tested antibiotics showed resistance ranging between ٤٠ and ٣,٣٤٪.
