Risk Factors and Predictive Model for Otitis Media With Effusion After Radiotherapy in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 305-315, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the impact of different radiation fields on the risk of otitis media with effusion (OME) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients and to develop a nomogram to identify high‐risk patients after radiotherapy. Methods Clinical data were collected from 170 NPC patients who underwent radiotherapy at Peking Union Medical ...

Postoperative Result for Tympanic Membrane Perforation

open access: yesNippon Jibiinkoka Gakkai Kaiho, 2002
Ears with tympanic membrane perforation show a wide range of pathophysiology from simple perforation to mobility impairment of the ossicular chain complicated by sclerotic and/or inflammatory lesions of the middle ear. In surgery on such ears, we determine checkpoints and proceed based on the order of procedure.

Ontogeny of the malleus in Mesocricetus auratus (Mammalia, Rodentia): Systematic and functional implications for the muroid middle ear

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 989-1004, April 2026.
Abstract The three mammalian auditory ossicles enhance sound transmission from the tympanic membrane to the inner ear. The anterior anchoring of the malleus is one of the key characters for functional classification of the auditory ossicles. Previous studies revealed a medial outgrowth of the mallear anterior process, the processus internus ...

Synapsids and sensitivity: Broad survey of tetrapod trigeminal canal morphology supports an evolutionary trend of increasing facial tactile specialization in the mammal lineage

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 864-911, April 2026.
Abstract The trigeminus nerve (cranial nerve V) is a large and significant conduit of sensory information from the face to the brain, with its three branches extending over the head to innervate a wide variety of integumentary sensory receptors, primarily tactile.

Hearing Preservation After Segmental Semicircular Canal Destruction: A Report of Two Rare Cases

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Semicircular canal fistulas are a complication of cholesteatomatous otitis media. In extremely rare cases, extensive destruction of the bony labyrinth may result in loss of approximately one‐third of the semicircular canal arc, often with wide exposure and partial injury to the membranous labyrinth, thereby increasing the risk of profound ...

Malleostapedotomy in Patients With Stapes Fixation: A Systematic Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 4, Page 1601-1613, April 2026.
This systematic review analyses the current evidence on malleostapedotomy as a primary or revision procedure in patients with stapes fixation. Twenty‐five studies comprising 632 operated ears were included. Malleostapedotomy proved to be a safe and effective alternative to incus‐anchoring stapedoplasty, with favorable hearing outcomes and a low ...
