Aggressive Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma in the Setting of GATA2 Deficiency

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background GATA2 deficiency is a rare genetic disorder associated with hematologic, infectious, and neoplastic complications. We report a case of a patient with GATA2 deficiency who developed aggressive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the head and neck, an atypical manifestation of this condition.

Comparing Tinnitus Suppression in Asymmetric Hearing Loss and Single‐Sided Deafness: Cochlear Versus Bone Conduction Implants

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
While both cochlear implants and bone conduction implants improve tinnitus symptoms, cochlear implants provide significantly greater suppression across multiple tinnitus severity measures and a higher cure rate, positioning it as the preferred option for tinnitus management in asymmetric hearing loss and single‐sided deafness patients.

Long‐Term Outcomes of Adult Temporal Bone Fractures With Hearing Loss: Results of a Multinational Database Analysis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study uses a large multinational database to examine long‐term outcomes of adult temporal bone fractures. The risk for meningitis, labyrinthitis, facial nerve disorders, and cerebrospinal fluid leaks was elevated after fracture. Cochlear implantation was also more likely after temporal bone fracture.

CBCT of osteogenesis imperfecta of the inner ear [PDF]

, 2015
A 42-year-old female known with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) was referred to our department with complaints of deteriorating hearing loss. The medical history, besides some limb fractures, secondary to the OI, was negative. During clinical examination, a

Percutaneous Bone Implant Surgery: A MIPS Modified Technique

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Since their introduction, passive percutaneous hearing aids have undergone substantial evolution, including changes in implant production, improvements in the sound processor, and simplification of surgical implantation techniques. The latest innovation comes from the minimally invasive technique proposed for the PONTO system (MIPS), which does not ...

Systematic Review of Quality of Life in Bone Anchored Hearing: Conductive vs. Unilateral Sensorineural Hearing Loss

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The literature demonstrates that bone‐anchored hearing implants have a positive impact on auditory performance and quality of life (QoL), but these outcomes may not always correlate. This systematic review analyzed 56 articles to identify discrepancies in self‐reported, disease‐specific QoL benefits among patients with either unilateral sensorineural ...

Synchrotron‐Based Trauma Assessment of Robotic Electrode Insertions in Cochlear Implantation

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Minimizing intraoperative trauma during cochlear implant electrode insertion is crucial for preserving residual hearing, and efforts have been made to introduce robotic systems for electrode insertion. On temporal bone specimens, the OTODRIVE system demonstrated its ability to enable consistent and controlled electrode placement while minimizing trauma

Long‐Term Cochlear Implant Sensitivity in Patients With Far Advanced Otosclerosis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study aimed to evaluate mid‐ and long‐term cochlear implant fitting in otosclerosis patients compared to a control group. It suggested significant tissue remodeling at the cochlear apex in otosclerosis patients, likely increasing resistance to electrical currents delivered by the implant.
