Bronchial Mucosal Abnormalities in Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis
Idiopathic subglottic stenosis (iSGS) is a challenging variant of airway stenosis associated with consistent distal airway abnormalities on bronchoscopy, including pits, depressions, and striations. Despite these findings, most patients demonstrate normal or mild–moderate obstruction on spirometry.

Endoscopic Suture Ligation and Sclerotherapy for Pharyngolaryngeal Venous Malformation
This study evaluated suture ligation combined with sclerotherapy in 53 patients with pharyngolaryngeal venous malformations. A single procedure achieved complete resolution in 79.25% of cases, with no serious complications or need for prophylactic tracheostomy.

Validation of the TruBlue Light Laser for Laryngeal Somatosensory and Perturbation Testing
This study validates a blue light laser method for assessing laryngeal somatosensory function by measuring perceptual thresholds, reflexive responses, discrimination acuity, and vocal perturbations in healthy adults. Results demonstrate that the method provides precise, reliable stimulation and yields quantifiable sensory and acoustic responses ...

The Impact of Etiology on Time to Vocal Fold Motion Recovery in Unilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis
The time course of vocal fold motion recovery in UVFP reflects the underlying etiologies. This study showed that there was no difference in the time to recovery between UVFP from cardiothoracic versus thyroid/parathyroid surgeries, challenging the long‐held assumption that recovery time is proportional to the distance between injury site and larynx ...

Assessment of cervical spine movement during laryngoscopy with Macintosh and Truview laryngoscopes
Background: Truview laryngoscope provides an indirect view of the glottis and will cause less cervical spine movement since a ventral lifting force will not be required to visualize the glottis compared to Macintosh laryngoscope.

Neighborhood Deprivation and Voice and Reflux Symptom Burden in a Tertiary Laryngology Cohort
ABSTRACT Objective The voice handicap index‐10 (VHI‐10) and reflux symptoms index (RSI) are validated, patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) commonly used in laryngology to assess the subjective impact of voice disorders and severity of symptoms associated with laryngopharyngeal reflux, respectively.

How I Do It: Two Novel, Low‐Cost Phonomicrosurgery Models With Open‐Source, 3D‐Printed Laryngoscopes
Two new vocal fold microflap models using products found in any grocery store have been developed along with publicly available 3D‐printable parts for simulating multiple laryngoscopes commonly used during laryngeal phonomicrosurgery. This represents a low cost, easily reproducible model for basic laryngeal phonomicrosurgery training.
