Race and Ethnicity Affect Symptom and Endoscopy Associations in CT‐Confirmed Chronic Rhinosinusitis
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Among adults with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) symptoms, hyposmia, and higher Lund–Kennedy endoscopy scores were associated with CT‐confirmed CRS overall, though these associations were not significant among Asian and Hispanic patients. Symptoms alone had limited predictive value when nasal endoscopy was negative, suggesting that the diagnostic utility

Autologous Mastoid Cortex Bone Graft for Multilayer Repair of Lateral Skull Base Defects
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Multilayer repair of lateral skull base cerebrospinal fluid leaks and encephaloceles can be reinforced with rigid autologous grafts. Harvesting a monocortical mastoid cortex bone graft is effective and easy to implement without conferring additional morbidity.

Validity and Responsiveness of Chronic Rhinosinusitis Control Test Subdomains
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.The chronic rhinosinusitis control test (CRCT) is a psychometrically validated 8‐item patient‐reported outcome measure developed based on international consensus that measures, quantifies and classifies CRS control. The CRCT has two subdomains: a sinonasal subdomain and an impairment subdomain that measure distinct but complementary constructs related ...

Transoral Ultrasound in the Diagnostic Workup of Peritonsillar Abscess—A Randomized Clinical Trial
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Peritonsillar abscess frequently mimics peritonsillar cellulitis, exposing many patients to unnecessary and often painful blind needle aspirations. In this multicenter randomized clinical trial of 95 patients, adding transoral ultrasound to standard examination reduced needle aspiration attempts by nearly one third.

Superior Labial Artery Flap for Septal Perforation Repair: The Boxer's Flap
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.The nasal floor flap, or Boxer's flap, is an anteriorly pedicled, superior labial artery–based mucosal flap that provides excellent closure rates in septal perforation repair when traditional septal flaps are not feasible. The schematic shows: (A) preoperative perforation, (B) nasal floor flap elevation (with the pedicle maintained at the inferior ...

Pregabalin Efficacy in Treatment of Chronic Neurogenic Cough
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.The use of neuromodulators for chronic cough has increased; however, the choice of medication, dosing regimen, and duration are still unclear. This longitudinal study of 95 adults taking pregabalin, 75 mg twice daily, for CNC demonstrated 78% improvement or resolution of cough, 17% unchanged, 1% worse cough, with a mean of 6 weeks of therapy, and only ...

Success of Anterior Ethmoidal Artery Flaps for Nasal Septal Perforation Repair: A Systematic Review
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Nasal septal perforation (NSP) repair using the anterior ethmoidal artery (AEA) flap is an emerging endoscopic technique with an overall closure success rate of 84.6%. The AEA flap is a reliable endoscopic technique for repairing NSPs < 2.5 cm. Emerging AEA flap modifications may further improve outcomes, while enabling repair of larger perforations ...
