Interdisciplinary defect reconstruction of upper aerodigestive fistulas-case series and treatment algorithm
CONCLUSION: Complex defects of the upper aerodigestive tract with multiple previous operations can be successfully reconstructed. Because of its versatility, the ALT flap seems to be a very good option. Prerequisite for this is an interdisciplinary treatment approach with a critical assessment of patient- and disease-specific factors.PMID:37707515 | DOI:10.1007/s00106-023-01358-y (Source: HNO)

Thermal imaging and velocity measurements of the exhaled airflow in total laryngectomized patients during COVID-19 pandemic.
CONCLUSION: Laryngectomized patients without laryngeal tubes pose a lower risk for spreading viral aerosols due to the reduced velocity of the exhaled airflow caused by the absence of the tube as the narrowing factor. Patients with laryngeal tubes who undergo total laryngectomies during the COVID-19 pandemic should use HMEs with viral filter, if possible, also changing the laryngeal tubes to dermal adhesives for fitting their HMEs seems to be the best option. The surface of the used protective equipment can also be examined with thermal camera in the case of total laryngectomees. COVID-19 PCR testing of the tracheal secret...

Nasal Cytology Changes in Head and Neck Cancer Treatment: A Systemic Review
In conclusion, nasal cytology is useful and allows for identifying mucosal disorders of the nasal cavities after surgery and/or radiotherapy for head and neck cancer. This can help physicians to better treat the nasal complaints of such patients.PMID:37568843 | DOI:10.3390/diagnostics13152480 (Source: Cancer Control)
