Adenotonsillar Microbiome Shifts in Children With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study compares the microbiomes of adenoids and tonsils in pediatric OSAS patients and healthy controls using 16S rRNA sequencing. Significant differences were found in the tonsillar microbiome of OSAS patients, with lower alpha diversity and an overrepresentation of pathogenic genera like Haemophilus and Neisseria, while adenoid microbiomes showed

Is Ankyloglossia Correlated With Pediatric Sleep Disordered Breathing? A Systematic Review
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.An increasing breadth of conditions and symptoms are being ascribed to ankyloglossia. As diagnosis of ankyloglossia and frequency of frenotomy exponential increase, it is important to have an understanding of the associated evidence. This systematic review summarizes the evidence for ankyloglossia's association with sleep disordered breathing in ...

BMI, Sex as Predictors of Anterolateral Thigh Free Flap Thickness for Oropharyngeal Reconstructions
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study evaluated BMI, sex, and their influence on anterolateral thigh free flap (ALTFF) thickness for oral/oropharyngeal reconstruction. Our results showed that BMI strongly correlated with flap thickness, and women had significantly thicker flaps, despite similar BMI.

Stability of Hairline Lowering Using Small Footprint Soft Tissue Anchoring Devices
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Facial aesthetics and balanced proportions are influenced by “facial thirds,” and hairline recession/large foreheads can alter this natural harmony. Hairline lowering with bioabsorbable fixation devices, such as the Endotine Forehead‐mini, aims to restore facial balance through stable advancement of the hairline. In this 2011–2024 single‐surgeon series

The Balancing Act: Ergonomic Challenges for Pregnant Microvascular Surgeons in the Operating Room
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study evaluates the intraoperative ergonomic challenges faced by pregnant microvascular surgeons by comparing detailed motion‐analysis data collected at 36–37 weeks' gestation with postpartum assessments. Findings show that pregnancy significantly increases time spent in unsafe postures (particularly involving the neck, elbows, and knees), while ...

Outcomes and Innervation of Gracilis for Pediatric Facial Paralysis: A Systematic Review
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This systematic review compares innervation techniques for gracilis free muscle transfer in pediatric facial paralysis. Masseteric innervation produced the greatest commissure excursion, cross‐facial nerve grafting enabled spontaneous smiles, and dual innervation balanced both with high satisfaction and low complication rates across techniques ...

Acromegaly Presenting With Cricoarytenoid Joint Arthropathy
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Excess growth hormone in acromegaly induces characteristic acral and soft tissue overgrowth (particularly in the face and hands), arthropathies, as well as cardiovascular and metabolic complications. Similar proliferative changes can occur in the larynx, where hypertrophy of the arytenoid and cricoid cartilages may impair vocal fold mobility.

Anterolateral‐Thigh Fascia Lata Free Flap Versus Fibula Free Flap for Mandibular Osteoradionecrosis
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.The anterolateral thigh fascia lata “rescue” free flap has been employed as a novel tool in the treatment of advanced partial thickness mandibular osteoradionecrosis. Compared with the traditional fibula free flap for the same indication, the “rescue” flap provides similar outcomes in terms of disease resolution, superior functional outcomes, and ...
