Novel 3D-printed tracheostomy tube for vertebral erosion in complex pediatric patient
Otolaryngology Case ReportsTracheostomy complications are more common in children with scoliosis and abnormal chest wall anatomy. We present a 14-year-old with neuromuscular scoliosis and tracheostomy-dependent respiratory failure who developed full thickness tracheal erosion into

Respiratory Particle Emissions in Tracheostomized Outpatients: Comparable to Healthy Volunteers. [PDF]
Laryngoscope Investig OtolaryngolIn stable outpatients, aerosol emissions did not differ between the three groups across common respiratory activities, suggesting the exhalation route is not a major determinant of emission under these conditions. The impact of tracheostomy care procedures, such as suctioning, was not evaluated in this study.

Airway Involvement in Conradi–Hünermann–Happle Syndrome: A Novel Clinical Manifestation
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.We report the first documented case of airway involvement in Conradi–Hünermann–Happle syndrome (CDPX2), an X‐linked dominant form of chondrodysplasia punctata caused by pathogenic variants in EBP. A 2‐month‐old female with genetically confirmed CDPX2 developed severe subglottic stenosis and persistent respiratory distress requiring CPAP; cross ...

Tracheostomy vs. Delayed Extubation in Head and Neck Reconstruction: A Meta‐Analysis
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.High volume centers are trialing delayed extubation as an alternative management approach to tracheostomy in patients undergoing head and neck reconstruction (HNR). This systematic review shows that patients in the delayed extubation group are four times less likely to suffer an airway complication (p = 0.295) and eight times less likely to suffer a ...

Value‐Based Neuromonitoring in Thyroidectomy: A Comprehensive Cost–Utility Analysis
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To compare the cost–utility of major intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) strategies in thyroidectomy across commercial platforms, and to quantify the impact of continuous IONM (CIONM), automated nerve trend monitoring, postoperative laryngoscopy policy, and technical failure on total episode costs and medicolegal burden.
