Ultrasonic Vocalization Acoustics After Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injury and Recovery
Reliable and functional biomarkers in animal models of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury are needed to ensure translation of treatments from the laboratory to the clinic. This study aimed to investigate the impact of RLN injury on rodent ultrasonic vocalization (USV) acoustics in both acute and chronic stages of injury.

Post‐Intubation Acute Laryngeal Injuries: Analysis of Predictive Factors of Poor Prognosis
This is the first historical review in the literature that adds reintubation with corticosteroid and antibiotics ointment coating around the tube to balloon laryngoplasty for the management of post‐intubation acute laryngeal injuries. Almost 85% of our patients were managed with success with such approaches.
