Pre‐operative three‐dimensional face scans for predicting difficult facemask ventilation: a prospective development study

Anaesthesia, Volume 81, Issue 10, Page 1340-1348, October 2026.
Summary Introduction Facemask ventilation is a key airway management skill but predicting difficulty can be challenging. Pre‐operative three‐dimensional face scanning may have diagnostic value. We aimed to identify interpretable facial shape features and to quantify their value for predicting difficult facemask ventilation.

A Rare Case of Oropharyngeal Leech Infestation Causing Epistaxis and Dysphagia in a Child in Herat, Afghanistan: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal leech infestation is rare. A 12‐year‐old Afghan girl developed recurrent epistaxis, dysphagia, throat irritation, and cough after drinking untreated stream water. Examination revealed an 8‐cm leech attached to the posterior pharynx. Forceps removal immediately resolved symptoms.

Evaluation of thyromental height test as a single anatomical measure for prediction of difficult laryngoscopy: a prospective observational study

, 2023
Background Preoperative airway assessment is essential to predict difficult airway so that adequate planning could be made to secure the airway. Various airway tests have been devised to improve diagnostic accuracy but none of the tests individually have

Laryngeal NUT Carcinoma With BRD4::NUTM1 Fusion: A 4‐Year Clinical Course Highlighting the Limitations of Current Multimodal Therapy

Cancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Nuclear protein in testis (NUT) carcinoma is a rare, aggressive malignancy driven by NUTM1 rearrangement, often misdiagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma, with no established standard therapy. This report describes the clinical course and treatment resistance in primary laryngeal NUT carcinoma and provides insights into potential ...

Intraoperative Indocyanine Green Fluorescence Enables Primary Tumor Localization and Treatment De‐Escalation in SCCUP: A Case Report

Head &Neck, Volume 48, Issue 9, Page E94-E99, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Unknown primary cancer in the head and neck presents a difficult surgical treatment dilemma. Patients with squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary (SCCUP) typically present with an enlarging neck mass found on biopsy but with no indication of primary site on diagnostic exams such as flexible laryngoscopy, CT, MRI, and/or PET/CT ...

Difficult Laryngoscopy in Cleft Lip and Palate Surgery

Survey of Anesthesiology, 1996
We studied prospectively 800 paediatric patients undergoing repair of cleft lip and palate to determine the predictors of difficult laryngoscopy. The incidence of difficult laryngoscopy (Cormack and Lehane grade III and IV) was 2.95% in patients with unilateral cleft lip, 45.76% in bilateral cleft lip and 34.61% in patients with retrognathia.
