Eustachian Tube Opening in Children With and Without Cleft Palate and Association With Otitis Media
Using transnasal endoscopy in 50 children, structural abnormalities of the torus tubarius—particularly the posterior lip—were significantly more common in children with cleft palate than in those without (52% vs. 20%). Adenoid size, dynamic Eustachian tube opening visibility, and the Eustachian Tube Inflammation Scale correlated with middle ear status ...

The role of contralateral tonsillectomy in unilateral HPV+ tonsillar squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) is debated. Among 163 patients with p16‐positive TSCC, occult synchronous contralateral second primary malignancies clustered among patients with high‐risk preoperative features (20.0%) compared with low‐risk patients (6.7%, number needed to treat 14 ...

Patient‐Reported Outcomes of Palatopharyngeal Surgery Without Tonsillectomy: A Meta‐Analysis
Palatopharyngeal surgery without tonsillectomy leads to clinically meaningful improvements in daytime sleepiness and snoring, but patient‐reported outcomes vary markedly by surgical technique. Suture‐based procedures, muscle relocation, cold‐steel approaches, and powered instruments show the largest and durable benefits, with no evidence of effect ...

Transoral Robotic Resection of Pediatric Tongue Base Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma
Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) offers a precise, minimally invasive approach for the management of rare pediatric tongue base malignancies. Intraoperative visualization demonstrates accurate tumor delineation and controlled resection, while postoperative findings confirm effective oncologic clearance with preservation of surrounding structures.

Risk Analysis Index Versus mFI‐5 for Predicting Outcomes After Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty
This retrospective database study of 2129 adults undergoing uvulopalatopharyngoplasty compared the risk analysis index (RAI) with the modified 5‐item frailty index (mFI‐5) for predicting 30‐day postoperative outcomes and found that frailty was associated with worse morbidity, prolonged hospitalization, non‐home discharge, and mortality.
