  • Does Creatine Improve Corticosteroid-Mediated Facial Nerve Healing in a Rat Model? [Journal Article]
    Laryngoscope. 2026 Jul 21. [Online ahead of print]Apaydin E, Doluoglu S, … Can BL
  • CONCLUSIONS: Combined administration of creatine monohydrate and methylprednisolone resulted in superior histopathological recovery compared with monotherapy. While corticosteroids improved electrophysiological outcomes, the addition of creatine enhanced structural preservation, supporting its role as an adjunct therapy.
  • The Early Regenerative Events in the Human Tympanic Membrane After In Vivo Traumatization. [Journal Article]
    Laryngoscope. 2026 Jul 21. [Online ahead of print]Sepehri E, Berglin CE, … Arebro JL
  • CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that traumatization activates a regenerative response in the human TM, activating key proliferative regions already at 20 h after traumatization. The results show an upregulated proliferation activity in the UPT in early healing and confirm the previously described regenerative regions of the annulus and malleus. These insights will be valuable for improving future TM healing strategies.
  • CT Assessment of Laryngotracheal Changes After Surgical and Percutaneous Tracheostomy. [Journal Article]
    Laryngoscope. 2026 Jul 20. [Online ahead of print]Pinhas S, Bartov N, … Allon RL
  • CONCLUSIONS: Long-term tracheostomy causes significant laryngotracheal morphological changes with no structural differences between SOT and PDT. Cricoid-level stoma and suprastomal fibrotic block are significant predictors of decannulation failure, supporting CT assessment before or after failed decannulation to identify candidates for airway intervention.
  • Laryngeal Nocardia: A Case Report. [Case Reports]
    Laryngoscope. 2026 Jul 20. [Online ahead of print]Singleton O, Owen G, … Robbins AML
  • Although malignancy often leads the differential for patients with obstructive laryngeal masses, infectious etiologies should also be considered. This case report describes a rare presentation of laryngeal Nocardiosis in an immunosuppressed patient with biopsy findings not suggestive of malignancy. Early consideration of infectious etiologies can reduce delays in treatment, prevent airway comprom…
  • Single-Port Robotic Postauricular Neck Dissection With Transoral Anastomosis for Oral Cancer. [Case Reports]
    Laryngoscope. 2026 Jul 19. [Online ahead of print]Ma S, He J, … Zhu GL
  • This report describes a concealed postauricular single-port robotic neck dissection combined with transoral microvascular anastomosis for oral squamous cell carcinoma. By integrating neck management with intraoral free-flap reconstruction, this approach avoided a visible cervical incision and achieved favorable perioperative, functional, and cosmetic outcomes in a selected patient.
  • Unintentional Weight Loss Does Not Predict Poor Outcomes in Zenker Diverticulum. [Journal Article]
    Laryngoscope. 2026 Jul 18. [Online ahead of print]Schuman AD, Allen J, … Howell RJL
  • CONCLUSIONS: Unintentional weight loss is common with ZD. Patients with worse dysphagia are more likely to have more weight loss. Weight loss does not increase with the size of the diverticulum or length of symptoms. Surgery has a similar safety profile with greater improvement in dysphagia in patients reporting weight loss.
  • Taste Dysfunction and Bell's Palsy: A Scoping Review. [Review]
    Laryngoscope. 2026 Jul 17. [Online ahead of print]Thomas SR, Oyer SL, Munger SDL
  • CONCLUSIONS: Taste dysfunction is a frequent yet variably reported feature of Bell's palsy. Taste stimulus testing reveals broader facial nerve involvement than patient report alone and may aid early assessment. Standardized, longitudinal studies employing validated psychophysical measures are needed to clarify the prognostic significance of taste deficits and inform comprehensive assessment strategies.
  • Diagnostic Delay of Unilateral Facial Paralysis Caused by Occult Malignancy: A Scoping Review. [Review]
    Laryngoscope. 2026 Jul 16. [Online ahead of print]Kokesh KC, Cahill G, … Lu GNL
  • CONCLUSIONS: Occult malignancy is a rare but clinically significant cause of unilateral facial paralysis and is frequently associated with prolonged diagnostic delay. Progressive paralysis, lack of recovery, trigeminal symptoms, additional cranial neuropathies, or a history of skin cancer should prompt repeat imaging and consideration of biopsy, even in the setting of negative initial imaging.
  • Effects of Intubation Duration on Trachea: A Histopathological Study. [Journal Article]
    Laryngoscope. 2026 Jul 15. [Online ahead of print]Kilic O, Celik S, … Kalcioglu MTL
  • CONCLUSIONS: Prolonged endotracheal intubation is associated with various histopathological changes in the trachea. Given that histopathological injury and complication rates increase with intubation duration, performing tracheotomy within the first 14 days may be considered.
