Nebulized Lidocaine Through a Channeled Endoscope for Office Laryngology Procedures
Targeted delivery of nebulized lidocaine through a channeled endoscope may improve patient tolerance and reduce lidocaine dosage for office laryngology procedures. Most patients in this study preferred channel‐nebulized lidocaine over trans‐tracheal and laryngeal drip topical lidocaine.

A Novel Murine Model of Acute Laryngeal Injury After Intubation
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,

Transoral Robotic Lingual Tonsillectomy for Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea
ABSTRACT Objectives Our objective was to investigate the safety and efficacy of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) lingual tonsillectomy (LT) with and without epiglottopexy and to compare it with non‐robotic approaches for children with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
