Shayan Cheraghlou, Sina J. Torabi, Zain Husain, Michael Otremba, Heather Edwards, Saral Mehra, Wendell G. Yarbrough, Barbara Burtness, Benjamin L. Judson
ObjectivesApproximately 3% to 9% of head and neck cancer presents with a metastatic node and no identifiable primary tumor. These cases of head and neck carcinoma of unknown primary (HNCUP) present a therapeutic challenge. Therapy of this disease varies based on factors such as institutional, surgeon, and patient preference. Evidence demonstrating the out...... hiện toàn bộ
Criteria for Success in Pediatric Functional Endonasal Sinus SurgeryLaryngoscope - Tập 106 Số 7 - Trang 869-873 - 1996
Ramzi T. Younis, Rande H. Lazar
AbstractFunctional endonasal sinus surgery (FESS) is widely used in the treatment of chronic sinusitis in adults and children. Although success rates of 80% to 93% have been reported, no criteria for success or improvement have been suggested. Standardized measures are needed to assess the outcome of FESS and to compare the results obtained by different surgical te...... hiện toàn bộ
Symposium continued. Nasal mucous transport and our ambient airLaryngoscope - Tập 93 Số 1 - Trang 58-62 - 1983
Donald F. Proctor
AbstractThe nose usually serves to conduct air in and out of the lungs; but it also defends the body against airborne noxious materials and modifies the physical condition of inspired air prior to its arrival in the lungs. A major factor in these physiological functions is mucociliary clearance which depends on the secretion of airway secretions and ciliary activit...... hiện toàn bộ
Bone resorption in cholesteatoma: Epithelial‐mesenchymal cell interaction and collagenase productionLaryngoscope - Tập 97 Số 7 - Trang 854-859 - 1987
Hiroshi Moriyama, Yoshio Honda, Cheng Chun Huang, Maxwell Abramson
AbstractClinical evidence has shown that chronic otitis media with cholestentoma causes greater bone resorption than otitis media without cholesteatoma. What is the role of the epithelium and its products on the morbidity of cholesteatoma? We have studied the mechanism of collagenase production in cultures of rat epidermal cells and skin fibroblast‐like cells under...... hiện toàn bộ
Laryngeal exposure and margin status in glottic cancer treated by transoral laser microsurgeryLaryngoscope - Tập 128 Số 5 - Trang 1146-1151 - 2018
Cesare Piazza, Alberto Paderno, Paola Grazioli, Francesca Del Bon, Nausica Montalto, Pietro Perotti, Riccardo Morello, Marta Filauro, Piero Nicolai, Giorgio Peretti
ObjectiveLaryngeal exposure is one of the most limiting factors in transoral laser microsurgery (TLM) for glottic cancer. We evaluated the correlation between the degree of laryngeal exposure, as assessed by an easy previously described scoring tool (Laryngoscore), and histopathologic surgical margin status after TLM.... hiện toàn bộ
Paroxysmal Laryngospasm Secondary to Gastroesophageal RefluxLaryngoscope - Tập 106 Số 12 - Trang 1502-1505 - 1996
Christopher J. Loughlin, James A. Koufman
AbstractOver a 2‐year period (1992 to 1994), 12 consecutive adult patients with paroxysmal laryngospasm were prospectively studied. All had had other symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux (GER); however, only 4 (33%) experienced symptoms of heartburn. Each patient underwent fiberoptic laryngeal examination, barium swallow/esophagography, and ambulatory, 24‐hour, doub...... hiện toàn bộ
Immediate postoperative extubation in patients undergoing free tissue transferLaryngoscope - Tập 121 Số 4 - Trang 763-768 - 2011
Amir Allak, Tam Ngoc Nguyen, David C. Shonka, James F. Reibel, Paul A. Levine, Mark J. Jameson
AbstractObjectives/Hypothesis:Extubation (cessation of ventilatory support) is often delayed in free flap patients to protect the microvascular anastomosis, presumably by reducing emergence‐related agitation. We sought to determine if immediate extubation in the operating room (OR) would improve the postoperative course compared t...... hiện toàn bộ
