Effect of Laser Posterior Nasal Neurolysis for the Treatment of Chronic Rhinitis: A Randomized Controlled Trial

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background To determine the safety and efficacy of laser ablation of the posterior nasal nerve (PNN) for the treatment of chronic rhinitis. Methods This study was a single‐center, prospective, single‐blinded, randomized sham‐controlled trial. Patients with a 24‐h reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) ≧ 5, rhinorrhea ≧ 2, and congestion ≧

The petrotympanic canal (Huguier canal): Evolutionary, anatomical, and medical perspectives

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The petrotympanic canal, traditionally referred to as Civinini's or Huguier's canal, represents an anatomical passage connecting the middle ear and temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Despite its early description, its structural complexity and functional significance have often been underestimated. In this study, we combined historical, anatomical,

Innervation of the tubarial glands: A hypothesis‐driven anatomical review

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tubarial glands have been described as a macroscopic bilateral glandular complex in the posterolateral nasopharynx near the torus tubarius and the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube. Since their recognition on prostate‐specific membrane antigen‐based imaging, their anatomical classification has remained debated, with converging ...

Understanding the Symptom Burden of Complex Skull Base Tumors From the Patient's Perspective

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Symptom burden of skull base tumor (SBT) patients, especially those undergoing multimodality treatment, is poorly understood. We aim to understand symptom burden in this patient group using the core module the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI).

Surgical Treatment of Lateral Skull Base Tumors Extending to the Craniovertebral Junction

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the clinical manifestation, surgical strategies, and long‐term outcomes of lateral skull base tumors extending to the craniovertebral junction (CVJ), with a focus on the infratemporal fossa approach (IFA) and individualized treatment options for cervical‐occipital stability.

Phenotypic Subtypes of Obstructive Eustachian Tube Dysfunction as Defined by Cluster Analysis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Obstructive ETD encompasses five clinically distinct phenotypes, ranging from mild, post‐upper respiratory infection presentations to chronic, bilateral disease driven by sinusitis and reflux. These were identified through hierarchical cluster analysis of 490 patients using seven key clinical variables.

Radiotherapy‐Induced Otitis Media With Effusion in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: A Meta‐Analysis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This meta‐analysis of eight studies comprising 582 NPC patients provides the first quantitative synthesis of radiotherapy‐induced otitis media with effusion (OME), demonstrating a significant overall risk difference of 0.18 (95% CI: −0.06 to 0.42, p < 0.0001) in OME naive ears.

Comparative Study of Tympanic Membrane Regeneration Therapy for Chronic Otitis Media

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study compared tympanic membrane regeneration therapy (TMRT) with conventional tympanoplasty (CTP) for the treatment of chronic suppurative perforated otitis media (COM). TMRT has many advantages over CTP as a surgical treatment for COM. In particular, significant differences were observed in operative time, hearing improvement, and patient ...

Eustachian Tube Opening in Children With and Without Cleft Palate and Association With Otitis Media

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Using transnasal endoscopy in 50 children, structural abnormalities of the torus tubarius—particularly the posterior lip—were significantly more common in children with cleft palate than in those without (52% vs. 20%). Adenoid size, dynamic Eustachian tube opening visibility, and the Eustachian Tube Inflammation Scale correlated with middle ear status ...
