Surgical Management of Non‐Allergic Rhinitis—An EAACI Task Force Position Paper

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Non‐allergic rhinitis is a frequent yet underdiagnosed cause of chronic nasal symptoms, including nasal congestion, rhinorrhoea, and upper airway hyperreactivity. Its pathophysiology involves neurogenic dysregulation, leading to excessive mucus production and vasodilation.

Nasal Obstruction Is Reduced 5–7 Years After Radiofrequency Turbinate Reduction: Results From a Retrospective Observational Cohort Study

open access: yesClinical Otolaryngology, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 914-922, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Nasal obstruction, often caused by structural and inflammatory conditions, is prevalent and significantly impacts health‐related quality of life. Radiofrequency Turbinate Reduction (RFTR) is a widely employed treatment for inferior turbinate hypertrophy, yet evidence of its long‐term effectiveness remains limited. This study aimed

Airflow Characteristics of Empty Nose Syndrome: Insights From Patient‐Specific Computational Modeling of Airflow Distribution Patterns and Nasal Air‐Conditioning

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 5, October 2026.
Using patient‐specific computational fluid dynamics in 14 patients with empty nose syndrome (ENS), 10 subjects with nasal septal deviation, and five normal subjects, we found that ENS was not characterized by a single airflow pattern but by a heterogeneous spectrum of phenotypes that also occurred in non‐ENS subjects.

Osteotomy Techniques in Endoscopic Dacryocystorhinostomy: A Three‐Decade Comparative Cohort Study

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is a well‐established surgical procedure used to restore lacrimal drainage in patients with nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Various instrumentation techniques have been used for lacrimal bone osteotomy; however, their comparative effectiveness remains debated.

Assessing Surgical Extent in Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: A Scoping Review of Scoring Systems

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, Volume 16, Issue 7, Page 695-715, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) varies substantially in the extent of surgical dissection performed, even when described under the same procedural label. In chronic rhinosinusitis, this heterogeneity may influence postoperative outcomes, revision rates, and response to biologic therapies.
