Characterizing Secondary Velopharyngeal Surgery in Children With Cleft Palate at an Academic Center

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 6, Page 2792-2800, June 2026.
In this retrospective study of children undergoing primary palatoplasty at a single academic institution, 10.8% required secondary surgery for velopharyngeal insufficiency. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that private insurance was associated with decreased odds of secondary surgery, while Asian race was associated with increased odds.

Deep Learning for Endoscopic Classification of Adenoid Hypertrophy

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 338-345, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Endoscopy is a convenient and widely used method to evaluate adenoid size, but the subjectivity of its image diagnosis can result in over‐ or underestimation. To create a new assessment strategy for adenoid hypertrophy, we developed a reliable method for automated classification using a deep learning algorithm with nasal endoscopic ...
