Outcomes and Innervation of Gracilis for Pediatric Facial Paralysis: A Systematic Review

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 6, Page 2461-2472, June 2026.
This systematic review compares innervation techniques for gracilis free muscle transfer in pediatric facial paralysis. Masseteric innervation produced the greatest commissure excursion, cross‐facial nerve grafting enabled spontaneous smiles, and dual innervation balanced both with high satisfaction and low complication rates across techniques ...

Placental‐Derived Connective Tissue Matrix Mediates Murine Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Regeneration

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 5, Page 2220-2231, May 2026.
Placentally derived connective tissue matrix (pd‐CTM) innately contains various neurotrophic, angiogenic, anti‐inflammatory, and tissue remodeling cytokines. In this mouse model of unilateral vocal fold paralysis, we investigate its effects on recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) regeneration and reinnervation of the right thyroarytenoid (TA) muscle after ...
