Pediatric Bilateral Vestibular Hypofunction: A Review of 26 Cases

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We report a pediatric cohort of patients with peripheral bilateral vestibular hypofunction (BVH) at a multidisciplinary, tertiary care pediatric vestibular clinic. Patients frequently had history of sensorineural hearing loss and developmental delays, with associated vestibulo‐ocular reflex (VOR) impairments during testing.

Comparison of Direct and Indirect Laryngoscopes in Vomitus and Hematemesis Settings: A Randomized Simulation Trial

BioMed Research International, 2015
Background. Videolaryngoscopes may not be useful in the presence of hematemesis or vomitus. We compared the utility of the Macintosh laryngoscope (McL), which is a direct laryngoscope, with that of the Pentax-AWS Airwayscope (AWS) and McGRATH MAC ...

Inconsistent Associations of Modified Frailty Index‐5 With Adverse Head and Neck Reconstruction Outcomes

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In a nationwide cohort of 5,573 adult head and neck cancer patients who underwent reconstruction with locoregional or microvascular free tissue transfers, higher modified frailty index‐5 (mFI‐5) scores were associated with 30‐day major cardiovascular events and mortality in the microvascular free tissue transfer subgroup.

Early Division of the Paramedian Forehead Flap: A Systematic Review and Retrospective Analysis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Early division of the paramedian forehead flap pedicle may help alleviate emotional distress, functional deficit, and productivity cost associated with the reconstructive process. In the present cohort, flap division 16 days and earlier was feasible and safe in nonsmoking patients with partial thickness defects and limited use of cartilage grafting ...

A Rare Sequela of Untreated Streptococcus Pharyngitis: A Case Report

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Pharyngitis caused by streptococcus can lead to severe complications if left untreated like pulmonary‐renal syndrome (PRS), characterized by diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis. This case report describes a 26‐year‐old male who developed PRS following streptococcal pharyngitis due to nonadherence to antibiotic ...
