Understanding the Concept of Self‐Performed Ultrasound: A Scoping Review
Self‐performed ultrasound is an emerging technology that facilitates adept self‐scans in untrained hands. Inspired by self‐performed imaging in space for more prompt diagnosis and therapy, it has the potential to accurately monitor chronic conditions remotely. However, the lack of supervision and physical restraints can hinder its usability.

Transoral Ultrasound in the Diagnostic Workup of Peritonsillar Abscess—A Randomized Clinical Trial
Peritonsillar abscess frequently mimics peritonsillar cellulitis, exposing many patients to unnecessary and often painful blind needle aspirations. In this multicenter randomized clinical trial of 95 patients, adding transoral ultrasound to standard examination reduced needle aspiration attempts by nearly one third.

Management of Auricular Hematoma With Bolster Versus Quilting: A Retrospective Cohort Study
This retrospective cohort study compared outcomes between bolster dressings and through‐and‐through mattress quilting sutures in the management of auricular hematoma in 43 patients. Recurrent hematoma occurred in 30% of the bolster group and 0% of the quilting group, with no significant differences in complications observed between the two groups ...

Increased Pediatric Head and Neck Abscesses Following the COVID‐19 Pandemic
This study evaluated the impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic on pediatric head and neck abscesses at two tertiary care centers. Overall head and neck abscess incidence increased more than threefold in the post‐pandemic period compared with the pre‐pandemic period, with increases observed across all major abscess subtypes.
