Relative tongue volume was not significantly associated with treatment response. Exploratory analyses suggest that other anatomic features such as hyoid positions or transverse maxillary dimensions ...

Endoscopic‐Assisted Transcervical Excision of Second Branchial Cleft Anomalies in Young Children
