Malignant Transformation Rate of Oral Premalignant Disorders: A Large Database Analysis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Oral leukoplakia (OL), oral lichen planus (OLP), and oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) are precancerous lesions known to progress to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The transformation rates to OSCC are controversial and have been based on small, heterogeneous, single‐institution studies. We present the largest study to date looking

Nutritional Outcomes in HPV‐Associated Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma After Transoral Robotic Surgery

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study evaluates how TORS, with or without adjuvant treatment, impacts swallowing and weight loss. Adjuvant treatment following TORS is associated with significantly greater long‐term weight loss but does not significantly alter swallowing outcomes. Longer duration of nasogastric tube dependence in the postoperative period is associated with higher

Safety of Monopolar Electrocautery Use in Patients With Implanted Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulators

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the effect of Monopolar electrocautery (MPE) on the functionality of hypoglossal nerve stimulators (HGNS) implants. A total of 85 patients who had undergone additional surgeries after their HGNS implant were included and analyzes compared outcomes between those who underwent surgeries involving MPE and those who's surgeries did not

Mechanisms of Improving Feeding Function With Capsaicin Following Local Anesthesia in Infant Pigs

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
With inferior alveolar nerve anesthetization, we found changes in some behavioral variables, as well as a decrease in bolus sizes and improved airway protection. This highlights the tradeoff between feeding efficiency and feeding safety. With capsaicin administration, some behavioral variables were returned to baseline values fully or partially, which ...

ctDNA to Predict Treatment Response in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Systematic Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This systematic review aims to investigate the role of plasma circulating tumor DNA in head and neck cancer surveillance. We conducted a systematic review to comprehensively assess the findings and quality of existing literature on this topic. Our findings show that ctDNA monitoring post‐treatment likely has utility in HNSCC surveillance.
