Abstract Background Fish bone ingestion is a common emergency presentation. Direct laryngoscopy (DL) is the conventional bedside technique, but it can be limited in anatomically challenging airways. Video laryngoscopy (VL) improves glottic visualization for intubation, yet its role in foreign body retrieval is unclear. Because difficult airway features

Airway management and hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and intubation in supine and left lateral positions. [PDF]
Introduction: Intubation in the lateral position is desirable in several conditions. We compared the technical ease and hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and intubation in the lateral (group L) and supine (group S) positions in 120 Patients with ...

Dysphagia Characteristics in High Versus Low Vagal Unilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis
High vagal etiology of unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP) is linked to greater swallowing dysfunction compared to low vagal etiology of UVFP, with higher rates of premature spillage, pharyngeal residue, penetration and aspiration on instrumental swallow assessment; and higher prevalence of diet and behavioral modifications recommended.

Overnight Monitoring After T&A for Children Ages 24–36 Months: Is It Always Necessary?
This study aims to identify whether all children < 3 years of age require overnight admission after tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy. We found that 98.7% of children who were off oxygen within 3 h after surgery never went back on oxygen during the entire monitoring period.

A Novel Murine Model of Acute Laryngeal Injury After Intubation
This study describes a novel murine model of acute laryngeal injury (ALgI) after intubation. Chemomechanical injury was performed to the posterior glottis of adult mice using a bleomycin‐dipped wire brush under endoscopic guidance, resulting in reduced glottic mobility, increased posterior glottic thickness, and increased collagen expression. This safe,

Comparison of the effectiveness between c-mac d-blade and glidescope for tracheal intubation in patients with cervical spine immobilisation simulated by a semi-rigid collar [PDF]
Objective: Among the technique for cervical spine immobilisation is putting on semi-rigid collar but it renders difficult tracheal intubation. In this study, our aim is to compare the effectiveness of two available videolaryngoscopes meant for difficult ...

Immunosuppression and Surgery‐Free Interval in Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis Airway Stenosis
Subglottic and tracheal stenosis are severe manifestations of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) that often require both endoscopic intervention and systemic immunosuppression. Rituximab may help stabilize GPA‐related airway disease by prolonging the interval between endoscopic procedures and delaying relapse.

The Diagnostic Value of PET/CT and MRI in Head and Neck Cancer of Unknown Primary
PET/CT demonstrates a higher diagnostic yield than MRI in detecting primary tumors in patients undergoing diagnostic work‐up for head and neck cancer of unknown primary origin. However, combining PET/CT and MRI improves overall detection rates and enhances soft tissue evaluation.
