The effect of inferior turbinate surgery on ear symptoms
ConclusionThe improvement of Eustachian tube dysfunction‐related symptoms due to surgery of the anterior half of the inferior turbinate was found to be equal to placebo. The findings of this study do not support the use of reduction of the anterior half of the inferior turbinate as a sole procedure intended to treat the ear symptoms assessed by the ETDQ‐7 questionnaire.

The value of frontal sinusotomy for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps —A cost utility analysis
ConclusionsESS remains a cost‐effective intervention compared to medical therapy alone for patients with CRSwNP. In this study, the addition of frontal sinusotomy during ESS for patients with CRSwNP was not found to be cost‐effective at a WTP threshold of $50,000/QALY, but may be cost effective at a higher threshold of $100,000/QALY.

Weekly Personal Ozone Exposure and Respiratory Health in a Panel of Greek Schoolchildren

Emergency department use for acute rhinosinusitis: Insurance dependent for children and adults
ConclusionWith respect to absolute numbers of visits, patients with Medicaid or no insurance use less care overall for uncomplicated ARS than do privately insured patients. Medicaid is associated with ED presentation for ARS for pediatric and adult visits. Self‐pay insurance status is strongly associated with ED presentation for adult and pediatric visits, and is significantly more common for children. These results suggest limitations in primary care access for uncomplicated ARS based on insurance status, particularly for uninsured pediatric patients. Level of Evidence4. Laryngoscope, 2017

Association between systemic antibiotic and corticosteroid use for chronic rhinosinusitis and quality of life
ConclusionMore frequent past CRS‐related oral antibiotic and corticosteroid use, regardless of time period queried (3 months or 12 months) is associated with significant decrease in CRS‐specific and general health‐related QoL. CRS‐related systemic medication use is an important indicator of CRS patients' QOL that easily can be queried and utilized in both clinical and research settings. Level of Evidence2c.

Bone involvement: Histopathological evidence for endoscopic management of sinonasal inverted papilloma
ConclusionHistopathological evidence of bone involvement indicates the importance of removal of the underlying bone at the time of endoscopic tumor resection. We hypothesized that bone involvement including bone invasion and osteogenesis may be induced by the tumor, and any microscopic lesion in the bony crevices probably indicates recurrence of SIP. Furthermore, infiltration of inflammatory cells may facilitate bone involvement and cause recurrence. Level of Evidence3b. Laryngoscope, 2017

Surgical outcome for empty nose syndrome: Impact of implantation site
ConclusionLateral nasal wall implantation may provide significantly better clinical outcomes than inferior nasal wall implantation, and thus may be the preferred, more optimal site for implant placement in ENS patients. Level of Evidence4. Laryngoscope, 2017

Revision rates and time to revision following endoscopic sinus surgery: A large database analysis
ConclusionsA minority of patients with CRS who undergo ESS will have a revision surgery. This likelihood is increased in female patients and those with nasal polyps, and decreased in patients of Hispanic ethnicity, even when controlling for income, insurance, and hospital setting.

Osteonecrosis after intranasal injection with bevacizumab in treating hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia: A case report
Intranasal bevacizumab injections have been used in treating hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT)‐related epistaxis since 2009. It is believed to be a safe and effective treatment for a selected group of HHT patients in reducing frequency and intensity of epistaxis, with few or none adverse effects. In this case report, however, we will describe a patient who developed bilateral osteonecrosis in the knees while undergoing regular intranasal submucosal bevacizumab injections. Although osteonecrosis previously has been documented in patients receiving bevacizumab intravenously in oncologic doses, thus far it has not...

Impact of obstructive sleep apnea in transsphenoidal pituitary surgery: An analysis of inpatient data
ConclusionsIn patients who underwent transsphenoidal pituitary surgery, OSA was associated with higher rates of certain pulmonary and airway complications. OSA was not associated with increased non–pulmonary/airway complications or inpatient mortality, despite older average age and higher comorbidity rates. Level of Evidence2C Laryngoscope, 2017
