Post‐Intubation Acute Laryngeal Injuries: Analysis of Predictive Factors of Poor Prognosis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This is the first historical review in the literature that adds reintubation with corticosteroid and antibiotics ointment coating around the tube to balloon laryngoplasty for the management of post‐intubation acute laryngeal injuries. Almost 85% of our patients were managed with success with such approaches.

Prevalence of Esophageal Webs in Patients Undergoing Direct Laryngoscopy

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
PES webs may be more common than what is traditionally cited in the literature. The prevalence of PES webs in this retrospective cohort study was found to be 34%. Webs may be more likely in patients with a history of irradiation to the head and neck, and only one‐third of patients with a PES web in our cohort had dysphagia symptoms.

Penetrating Laryngeal Trauma: Management of Severe Injuries Without Open Reduction Internal Fixation

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Thyroid and cricoid cartilage fractures that are displaced or have multiple fracture lines are traditionally managed with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). In practice, patients with penetrating laryngeal trauma may have small fragments of cartilage that are difficult to reduce and fixate.

“Hanger” in Intubation and Laryngoscopy [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery, 2018
Achieving an adequate exposure in laryngoscopy is an extremely tedious task for the operating surgeon, especially for the anterior commissure lesions. Various maneuvers have been described to overcome this difficulty, but failed in providing an adequate exposure leading to a poor outcome.

Comparison of forces acting on maxillary incisors during tracheal intubation with different laryngoscopy techniques: a blinded manikin study

open access: yesAnaesthesia, 2019
Dental trauma is a common complication of tracheal intubation. As existing evidence is insufficient to validly assess the impact of different laryngoscopy techniques on the incidence of dental trauma, the force exerted onto dental structures during ...

Endoscopic Management of a Hypopharyngeal‐Subglottic Fistula: Case Series and Literature Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A rare complication of prolonged intubation or laryngeal radiation is destruction of the posterior cricoid cartilage with resultant hypopharyngeal‐subglottic fistula leading to aspiration and inability to consume a regular diet. We describe a step‐by‐step endoscopic approach to the closure of a hypopharyngeal‐subglottic fistula.

Oral Pregabalin as Premedication on Anxiolysis and Stress Response to Laryngoscopy and Endotracheal Intubation in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Randomized Double-Blind Study

open access: yesAnesthesia Essays and Researches, 2019
Background: Direct laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation lead to increase in heart rate and blood pressure. This can cause serious complications in patients with coronary artery disease, reactive airways, or intracranial neuropathology.
