Delineation of the “Oropharyngeal Mucosa” and Limiting its Dose in Head and Neck Cancer Patients Spares the Oropharynx Without Compromising Target Coverage

open access: yesCancer Control
Objectives Radiation-induced oropharyngeal injury is a dose-limiting toxicity in head and neck cancer patients. Delineation of the “oropharyngeal mucosa” and limiting its dose to spare the oropharynx was investigated. Methods In this retrospective study,

Inflammatory Markers Stratify Surgical Outcomes in Pediatric Airway Reconstruction

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) predicts surgical success in adult patients undergoing open airway reconstruction for laryngotracheal stenosis, but similar biomarkers in pediatrics remain unidentified. This study identifies predictors of outcomes in pediatric patients undergoing triple endoscopy or surgical airway ...

Mouse Vocal Fold Permeability In Vivo: Effects of Novel Low‐Tech Injury and Instillation Methods

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Improving experimental mouse vocal fold injury and instillation approaches is necessary to advance preclinical models of laryngeal disease. We have successfully repurposed low‐tech, quick, and reliable injury and instillation methods established in respiratory research. Using these methods, we show that murine vocal fold epithelium is inherently highly

Transoral Robotic Lingual Tonsillectomy for Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Our objective was to investigate the safety and efficacy of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) lingual tonsillectomy (LT) with and without epiglottopexy and to compare it with non‐robotic approaches for children with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

GERD and Upper Aerodigestive Tract Cancer Risk: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is highly prevalent, yet its association with upper aerodigestive tract (UADT) cancers beyond esophageal adenocarcinoma remains incompletely defined. This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to quantify the risk of specific UADT cancers in individuals with GERD.
