Immunosuppression and Surgery‐Free Interval in Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis Airway Stenosis
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Subglottic and tracheal stenosis are severe manifestations of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) that often require both endoscopic intervention and systemic immunosuppression. Rituximab may help stabilize GPA‐related airway disease by prolonging the interval between endoscopic procedures and delaying relapse.

Optical Coherence Tomography as an Emerging Technique for Identifying Pediatric Middle Ear Effusion
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This prospective study evaluated optical coherence tomography (OCT) as a diagnostic tool for identifying middle ear effusion (MEE) in 164 pediatric patients. OCT was determined to have a sensitivity of 74% and a specificity of 93%, comparable to otoscopy and tympanometry, with moderate agreement (κ = 0.41) between clinical and non‐clinical raters.
