Safety and effectiveness of endovascular embolization or stent ‐graft reconstruction for treatment of acute carotid blowout syndrome in patients with head and neck cancer: Case series and systematic review of observational studies
ConclusionBoth embolization and stent grafts are safe therapeutic options for acute carotid blowout syndrome. Embolization for ICA/CCA carotid blowout syndrome was associated with higher risks of procedural stroke and lower recurrent bleeding compared to stent grafts.

Prevalence of Temporomandibular Disorders in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Associated Risk Factors: A Nationwide Study in Taiwan.
CONCLUSION: RA patients had 2.538 times the events of TMD compared with non-RA patients during this trial in Taiwan. The other risk factors for developing TMD included female gender, younger age, insomnia, stroke, and mental disorders. The DMARDs had a beneficial effect on prevention of TMD.

Upper esophageal sphincter augmentation reduces pharyngeal reflux in nasogastric tube –fed patients
ConclusionsUES‐AD significantly decreases the number of trans‐UES reflux events and can potentially reduce the aspiration risk associated with NGT feeding. Level of Evidence4. Laryngoscope, 2017

Evaluation of the natural history of patients who aspirate
ConclusionsEtiology of dysphagia is associated with a higher mortality rate and development of pulmonary events in patients with unsensed penetration or aspiration on VFSS, especially for those patients with generalized deconditioning and frailty or esophageal dysphagia. Severity of aspiration as defined by PAS was not associated with altered overall survival. Recommendations for dietary modification to a nothing by mouth status or modified food consistency had no statistically significant association with development of pulmonary events or survival in patients with detectable unsensed penetration or aspiration on VFSS com...

Efficacy of Myofunctional Therapy Associated with Voice Therapy in the Rehabilitation of Neurogenic Oropharyngeal Dysphagia: a pilot study
Conclusion This pilot study showed indications that using vocal exercises in swallowing rehabilitation in stroke patients was able to yield a greater increase in the oral intake levels. Nevertheless, further controlled blind clinical trials with larger samples are required to confirm such evidence, as this study points to the feasibility of conducting this type of research.

Surgeon's Guide to Facial Soft Tissue Filler Injections: Relevant Anatomy and Safety Considerations
The purpose of this study is to provide a review of the relevant facial anatomy related to soft tissue filler injections. Facial fillers are used daily in our clinical practice. Although their use is safe and predictable, adverse events do occur.  Some of these dire events include vascular complications leading to blindness, ischemia, and even stroke. Proper knowledge and understanding of the anatomic landmarks can minimize the risk of these vascular events. In addition, early recognition and treatment are necessary to prevent permanent com plications.

Sleep apnea and risk of vertigo: A nationwide population ‐based cohort study
ConclusionThis is the first nationwide population‐based cohort study to investigate the association between sleep apnea and vertigo. The findings strongly support that sleep apnea is an independent risk factor for vertigo. Based on the study results, physicians should be aware of potential vertigo occurrence following sleep apnea.

Arteriovenous Lesions of the Internal Auditory Canal
Conclusion: We report a novel case of an occult asymptomatic IAC arteriovenous lesion. Vascular anomalies confined to the IAC are rare. To date, there have been only four reports in the literature of IAC arteriovenous lesions and our case is the first to present asymptomatically. A high index of suspicion and dedicated imaging is required to identify and accurately diagnose these lesions to guide appropriate counseling and potential intervention.

Interventional radiology in the head and neck region.
Authors: Mayer C, Hattingen E, Schild H, Bootz F, Schröck A Abstract In interventional neuroradiology, endovascular embolization represents an important and helpful tool in the treatment of multiple head and neck diseases. These interventional procedures may be performed with curative intent, to reduce the surgical risk within a multimodal treatment concept, or to improve or at least maintain a good quality of life within a palliative therapy concept. In addition to a good understanding of disease pathology, knowledge of vascular anatomy, including collateral vessels and dangerous extracranial-intracranial anast...
