The Nasopharyngo‐Septal Butterfly Flap: A Novel Adjunct for Reconstructing Large Skull Base Defects
OTO OpenObjective Skull base defects can be challenging to reconstruct. The nasoseptal flap (NSF) remains the first‐line option for reconstruction. However, it can be inadequate to cover wide defects or compromised by tumor invasion or prior surgery requiring ...

Human Temporal Bone Removal: The Skull Base Block Method
, 2015 Objectives To describe a technique for harvesting larger temporal bone specimens from human cadavers for the training of otolaryngology residents and fellows on the various approaches to the lateral and posterolateral skull base. Design Human cadaveric

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Sinonasal neuroendocrine carcinoma (SNEC) and sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC) are rare aggressive malignancies with no established prognostic markers. Because features of POU2F3+ small cell lung carcinomas have been identified in both tumors, we evaluated immunostaining for POU2F3, a tuft cell transcription factor, and ...

Assessing the Mucosal Inflammatory Endotype of Obesity in Chronic Rhinosinusitis
International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a heterogeneous inflammatory syndrome of the paranasal sinuses that is defined phenotypically as either with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) or without nasal polyps (CRSsNP). More recently, inflammatory markers have been used to cluster patients into putative endotypes that are presumed to have a common ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Domestic rabbits of different body sizes differ disproportionately in the length of their tooth row or the length of their diastema. Abstract In various domestic mammals, smaller breeds tend to have proportionally larger teeth, whereas this is not a universal trend across mammals.

Ontogeny of murine bony semicircular canal form
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The labyrinthine geometry and functional anatomy of the semicircular canals have intrigued scientists for decades, and there has been considerable interest in understanding how these complex structures grow and develop with evidence emerging from human studies that size maturation occurs exceptionally early by comparison with other systems ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Neandertals are known to possess very distinctive traits in their bony labyrinth morphology, such as an inferiorly positioned posterior canal and a very low number of turns in the cochlea. Hence, the inner ear has been often used to assess the Neandertal status of fragmentary fossils.
