Working Towards a Common Transatlantic Approach for Evaluation of Exercise-Induced Laryngeal Obstruction
Exertional dyspnea can be a manifestation of dysfunction in a variety of organ systems. Exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO), a condition previously known as vocal cord dysfunction and paradoxic vocal fold motion, is defined as inappropriate, reversible narrowing of the larynx during vigorous exercise. EILO is usually characterized by typical symptoms, which nevertheless frequently are confused with those of other conditions, including asthma. Laryngoscopy performed as symptoms evolve from rest to peak exercise is pivotal in patient work-up. Moving forward, laryngoscopy findings that definitively characterize EILO...

Pazopanib effective for bevacizumab ‐unresponsive epistaxis in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia
We describe a patient with HHT with epistaxis recalcitrant to several endonasal procedures and six cycles of intravenous bevacizumab, for which he was dependent on iron infusions and packed red blood cells transfusions. He then started pazopanib at 100 mg with dramatic improvements in epistaxis and normalization of hemoglobin and iron levels, without replenishment needs for 12 months. This is the first report on the efficacy of pazopanib with high selectivity for abrogating VEGF receptor‐2 signaling in HHT, and needs to be explored further. Laryngoscope, 2018

Patient and surgeon factors explain variation in the frequency of frontal sinus surgery
ConclusionsVariation in the utilization of frontal sinus surgery is associated with patient sex, ethnicity, insurance status, geography, as well as provider and hospital volumes. These data support the idea that nonclinical factors may influence the treatment of frontal sinus disease.

Olfactory and middle meatal cytokine levels correlate with olfactory function in chronic rhinosinusitis
ConclusionsThe inflammatory microenvironment within the olfactory cleft mirrors that within the middle meatus. Elevated levels of IL‐2, IL‐5, IL‐6, IL‐10, and IL‐13 in olfactory cleft mucus are associated with reduced olfactory identification scores in CRS patients. Altered levels of select olfactory mucus cytokines could potentially have deleterious effects on olfactory neuron function and turnover.

Circadian anosmia: A rare clinical presentation
We report the case of a 27‐year‐old female who presented with a peculiar story of anosmia fluctuating in a circadian manner. Olfactory function appeared an hour after breakfast, was normal during daytime, and disappeared in the early evening. Imaging confirmed chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Initial systemic, followed by topical steroid treatment, rapidly and sustainably reversed this condition. The olfactory fluctuation paralleled the endogenous steroid production. This suggests that slight congestion changes in a chronically inflamed nasal mucosa may have been sufficient to induce this circadian anosmia. The importance...

A prospective, randomized, placebo ‐controlled study of inferior turbinate surgery
ConclusionsThe placebo effect had a large role in the overall improvement of the severity of nasal obstruction after the inferior turbinate surgery. However, all three techniques provided a statistically significant additional reduction of the severity of nasal obstruction compared to the placebo procedure.

The use of specific immunoglobulin E in nasal secretions for the diagnosis of allergic rhinitis
ConclusionsIgE level in nasal secretions of subjects with rhinitis is a reliable noninvasive alternative to serum sIgE for diagnosis of allergic rhinitis.

Insulin resistance and the increased risk for smell dysfunction in US adults
ConclusionWe found a significant association between smell dysfunction and severe insulin resistance in older US adults. Our data suggests that insulin resistance may be mechanistically linked to loss of smell function.

Economic evaluation of floseal compared to nasal packing for the management of anterior epistaxis
ConclusionsPrior studies have demonstrated Floseal to be an effective treatment for anterior epistaxis. In the Canadian healthcare system, Floseal treatment appears to be a cost‐effective treatment option compared to nasal packing for anterior epistaxis.

Diagnostic reliability of pretreatment biopsy in malignant nasoethmoidal tumors: A retrospective study of 77 cases
ConclusionsThe risk of misdiagnosis for nasoethmoidal tumors may be high even in referral centers. Especially when clinical and radiologic findings suggest a diagnosis different from adenocarcinoma, mucosal melanoma, and olfactory neuroblastoma, obtaining abundant material under general anesthesia may reduce the risk of diagnostic error and inadequate treatment.

Case report: HPV ‐related carcinoma with adenoid cystic‐like features of the sinonasal tract
Human papillomavirus‐related carcinoma with adenoid cystic‐like features is a newly described histologic variant of sinonasal tract carcinoma. The implications of this sinonasal malignancy is still being evaluated. There are a limited number of cases reported in the literature, and thus we seek to further characterize this patient population and review the histologic features of this malignancy with the following two cases. The behavior of this entity is as yet uncertain. Laryngoscope, 2018

Intranasal tissue necrosis associated with opioid abuse: Case report and systematic review
ConclusionIntranasal opioid abuse is a prevalent condition associated with chronic pain and tissue necrosis that is clinically concerning for invasive fungal disease. Whereas IFRS must be excluded, even in patients without known immunodeficiency, complete resolution of symptoms can be expected following surgical debridement with cessation of opioid abuse.
