Prognostic Factors for Free Flap Failure in Head and Neck Reconstruction

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The failure rate of free flaps varies from 0.8% to 10.6% in the literature in head and neck reconstruction. The primary objective was to identify prognostic factors for free flap failure. Methods We prospectively included all consecutive free flaps performed between August 2021 and January 2024, and used a multivariate Cox ...

Tracheoesophageal Voicing Following Resistance‐Based Dysphagia Rehabilitation: An Exploratory Multidimensional Assessment

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This exploratory study investigated tracheoesophageal voicing following 6 weeks of resistance‐based dysphagia rehabilitation with the SEA2.0, using a multidimensional assessment approach. Methods Twenty laryngectomized participants were assessed at T0 (baseline), T1 (after 6 weeks training), and T2 (after 8 weeks rest).

Bilateral Thyroid Ima Arteries Arising From the Brachiocephalic Trunk: A First Case Report

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Bilateral thyroid ima artery (TIA) arising from the brachiocephalic trunk is an extremely rare anatomical variation, with no prior cases reported. Recognizing such vascular anomalies is crucial for optimizing surgical outcomes in thyroid and mediastinal procedures, as failure to identify these variations can lead to severe ...

Topology-Aware Wavelet Mamba for Airway Structure Segmentation in Postoperative Recurrent Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma CT Scans [PDF]

arXiv
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients often undergo radiotherapy and chemotherapy, which can lead to postoperative complications such as limited mouth opening and joint stiffness, particularly in recurrent cases that require re-surgery. These complications can affect airway function, making accurate postoperative airway risk assessment essential for ...

Acoustic Features of Airway Protective Maneuvers as Biomarkers of Radiation‐Associated Dysphagia and Penetration/Aspiration in Head and Neck Cancer Patients

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This study aimed at identifying acoustic features of airway protective maneuvers as biomarkers of radiation‐associated dysphagia, involving penetration/aspiration and pharyngeal residue. Methods Temporal and spectral acoustical analyses were carried out on voluntary coughs, voluntary throat clearings, and reflexive coughs.

Cystic Lung Phantom to Validate Clinical CT Protocols [PDF]

arXiv
In CT-based evaluation of the extent of cystic changes in the lungs of patients with cystic lung diseases, such as Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), there is a lack of a lung phantom containing air-filled cavities that mimic pulmonary cysts to calibrate the measurement of cystic volumes from CT scans.
