A Novel Murine Model of Acute Laryngeal Injury After Intubation

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 4, Page 1784-1791, April 2026.
This study describes a novel murine model of acute laryngeal injury (ALgI) after intubation. Chemomechanical injury was performed to the posterior glottis of adult mice using a bleomycin‐dipped wire brush under endoscopic guidance, resulting in reduced glottic mobility, increased posterior glottic thickness, and increased collagen expression. This safe,
