Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Robotic surgery has transformed head and neck cancer (HNC) treatment. This scoping review synthesizes evidence on transoral robotic surgery (TORS), focusing on applications, limitations, and future directions. Following PRISMA‐ScR guidelines, this review used the PCC framework (Population: HNC patients; Concept: technological advancements ...

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 ...

Unintentional Weight Loss Does Not Predict Poor Outcomes in Zenker Diverticulum
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.In this study of 427 patients with Zenker's diverticulum, 23.6% had significant unintentional preoperative weight loss. Weight loss was associated with preoperative dysphagia and with both the smallest and largest pouches. Postoperative outcomes were similar in patients with and without weight loss, demonstrating a similar efficacy and safety profile ...

Slow‐Phase Nystagmus Velocity as a Risk Factor for Lateral Canal BPPV Recurrence
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study investigated slow‐phase nystagmus velocity (SPV) at initial diagnosis as an objective vestibular predictor for the recurrence of lateral semicircular canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Binomial logistic regression analysis demonstrated that an elevated initial SPV is a novel, independent risk factor for recurrence ...

Contemporary Treatment Patterns in Surgically Treated Temporal Bone Cancer
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.In a national cohort of 811 surgically treated temporal bone cancer patients, adjuvant radiation therapy was the most frequently utilized postoperative treatment (20.3%), while chemotherapy and immunotherapy were used far less frequently. Multimodal treatment, particularly combined parotidectomy and neck dissection, was strongly associated with higher ...

How I Do It: Nasoseptal Flap for Reconstruction of Isolated Soft Palate Defect
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.A vascularized nasoseptal flap (NSF) provides a novel transnasal option for repairing soft palatal fistulas when traditional transoral flaps have failed or are unavailable, potentially avoiding the morbidity of regional or free tissue transfer. In the current patient who had an 8 × 6 mm soft palatal fistula, the NSF was harvested from the septum and ...

Rapid Postmortem Temporal Bone Extraction and Dissection of Human Inner Ear Organs From Organ Donors
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.We developed a postmortem protocol for temporal bone extraction and dissection in organ donors, enabling atraumatic bilateral temporal bone retrieval within 1–2 h of ischemia, followed by stepwise microsurgical dissection of neurosensory organs. Combining rapid extraction, abbreviated decalcification, and atraumatic microsurgical dissection, this ...

Instrumentation in Otologic and Neurotologic Surgery
Surgical instrumentation and equipment are nearly as important as surgical technique. In otologic surgery, instruments are nuanced and, in some cases, nearly indistinguishable from each other without magnification.

EHR‐Integrated Synoptic Operative Reporting for Head and Neck Oncologic Surgery
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.EHR‐integrated synoptic operative templates for head and neck oncologic surgery was developed and implemented at a tertiary academic cancer center. Departmental adherence rose from 49% to nearly 80% over 6 months, and 94.5% of reviewed cases met targets for complete, internally consistent documentation. The resulting structured data dictionary provides
