Therapeutic Efficacy of Endoscope‐Guided Coblation for Tongue Base Reduction as Part of Multilevel Surgery in Moderate to Severe OSA Patients

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) frequently results from multilevel upper airway obstruction involving the palate, lateral walls, and tongue base. Among various techniques, endoscope‐guided coblation for tongue base reduction (TBR) provides precise resection with excellent hemostasis and minimal morbidity.

Microcystic adnexal carcinoma (MAC)-like squamous cell carcinoma as a differential diagnosis to Bell's palsy: Review of guidelines for refractory facial nerve palsy

Journal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2017
Background Bell's palsy is the most common cause of facial paralysis worldwide and the most common disorder of the cranial nerves. It is a diagnosis of exclusion, accounting for 60–75% of all acquired peripheral facial nerve palsies.

Treatment of a Patient with Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia by the Anterior Tonsillar Pillar Method

Case Reports in Neurology, 2011
We describe the case of a 65-year-old patient with glossopharyngeal neuralgia. Pain was triggered by swallowing, yawning, or cold food. We used the anterior tonsillar pillar method for the injection of drugs; a relatively new glossopharyngeal nerve (GPN)

Transoral Robotic Resection of Glossopharyngeal Neurofibroma: A Case Report

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This case highlights the diagnostic challenges posed by rare oropharyngeal neurofibromas, their potential to mimic other conditions, and the novel application of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for the management of an oropharyngeal neurofibroma. A 47‐year‐old female presented with a 1‐year history of a left tonsillar mass.

Efficacy of Platelet‐Rich Plasma in Post‐Tonsillectomy Wound Healing and Pain Management: A Randomized Controlled Study

Clinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Tonsillectomy is one of the most common surgical procedures in otolaryngology, but the healing process remains unknown in individual patients. Several interventions, including platelet‐rich plasma, have been investigated to improve healing and pain control due to their regenerative properties.

Virtual brain endocasts of the palaeanodont Metacheiromys marshi and the neurosensory evolution of early Pholidotamorpha

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We describe the endocranial anatomy of Metacheiromys marshi. Decrease in olfaction and eye movement control occurred through time in Pholidotamorpha and is likely linked to fossorial adaptations. The development of the orbital gyrus might be related to the evolution of myrmecophagy and the emergence of a protrusile tongue in early Pholidotamorpha ...

CHARGE Syndrome: A Narrative Review and Update on Diagnosis, Assessment and Management

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background CHARGE syndrome (CS) is a rare multisystemic genetic condition caused by a pathogenic variant in the DNA‐binding protein‐7 CHD7 gene. The condition affects the development of neural crest cells, which give rise to craniofacial structures, cranial nerves, ears, eyes and the heart, resulting in diverse and complex clinical features ...

Diffuse cranial nerve infiltration in acute lymphoblastic leukemia: MRI diagnosis

Radiology Case Reports
Cranial nerve involvement in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a rare manifestation of central nervous system infiltration and may present diagnostic challenges, particularly when cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytology is negative.

Brain strain: Blood flow and metabolism in environmental extremes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This narrative review compares and contrasts the most commonly encountered environmental stressors on human cerebrovascular functioning. From high altitude and space, extreme apnoea, heat and cold stress, the impact of these stressors on the regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF) and oxygen metabolism (CMRO2${\mathrm{CM}}{{\mathrm{R}}_ ...
