Does myringosclerosis affect the success of butterfly myringoplasty?
Butterfly inlay myringoplasty is a simple and practical surgical technique used in the repair of tympanic membrane perforation offering good outcomes in terms of hearing. The present study evaluates the effects of myringosclerosis on the success of surgery by reviewing demographic data, perforation size and hearing outcomes of patients undergoing endoscopic inlay butterfly myringoplasty due to chronic otitis media.

Labyrinthine calcification in ears with otitis media and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (OMAAV): A report of two cases
Otitis media with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (OMAAV) has been proposed as a new type of otitis media. The hearing loss caused by OMAAV can be expected to improve with early detection and intervention, but if it continues to worsen and leads to deafness, it is challenging to recover the patient's hearing. When bilateral deafness occurs, cochlear implant (CI) surgery is the only way to improve hearing. Here, Case 1 showed unilateral cochlear calcification, and Case 2 showed bilateral cochlear calcification. (Source: Auris, Nasus, Larynx)

Risk factors for sialocele after parotidectomy: Does tumor size really matter?
Sialocele that develops after parotid surgery often prolongs the treatment period and stresses both the surgeon and patient. The extent of surgery and tumor size are known to be associated with sialocele occurrence. We investigated the incidence of post-parotidectomy sialocele and the associated risk factors, with a focus on tumor size. (Source: Auris, Nasus, Larynx)

Will levels of experience of examiners affect the diet provided for patients with swallowing impairment?
Flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES) is widely performed to determine the safety of oral intake. However, evaluation results can vary among examiners depending on their experience. To analyze the impact of such differences, we investigated the diet provided for patients with swallowing impairment evaluated by experienced and inexperienced examiners.

Analysis of the vestibular aqueduct development on the risk for suffering from idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss
Large vestibular aqueduct syndrome (LVAS) is one of the etiology of hearing loss. Clinically, we observed that the VA size of patients with idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) did not meet the diagnostic criteria of VA enlargement, but there were individual variations. Through this study, we want to understand the VA development and explore its risk for suffering from ISSNHL. (Source: Auris, Nasus, Larynx)
