Complications and Revisions for Adduction Arytenopexy, Medialization Laryngoplasty, and Cricothyroid Subluxation over 19 Years.

Objective: To report the long-term data of the Triple procedure (medialization laryngoplasty, adduction arytenopexy, and cricothyroid subluxation) regarding complications and revisions in a large cohort of patients.

Study Design: Retrospective case series.

Methods: This study included patients who underwent ≥1 components of the Triple procedure between January 2000 and July 2019.

Reliability of peak expiratory flow percentage compared to endoscopic grading in subglottic stenosis.

Objective: To determine the reliability of pulmonary function testing compared to endoscopic grading in the assessment of subglottic stenosis.

Methods: Consecutively treated patients with subglottic stenosis at a tertiary care specialty hospital from 2009 to 2019 were identified. Two fellowship-trained laryngologists and two otolaryngologists blinded to clinical history reviewed laryngo tracheoscopic examinations and assessed the degree of stenosis using the Cotton-Myer grading system (% stenosis).

The Effectiveness of Nortriptyline and Tolerability of Side Effects in Neurogenic Cough Patients.

Objective: To determine the effectiveness of nortriptyline and tolerability of side effects in the treatment of neurogenic cough. Secondary goal is to evaluate the association between laryngeal asymmetry and clinical response to nortriptyline.

Study Design: Retrospective case series.

Assessment of side effects after serial intralesional steroid injections for idiopathic subglottic stenosis.

Purpose: To assess the incidence and severity of 12 systemic side effects of serial intralesional steroid injections (SILSI) in patients with idiopathic subglottic stenosis (iSGS).

Methods: This retrospective study included patients with iSGS who underwent SILSI with Triamcinolone 40 mg/dL. After SILSI, the patients were asked to answer 12 questions regarding frequently encountered systemic side effects of steroids.

Voice-Related Quality of Life in Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis: Effect of Serial Intralesional Steroid Injections.

Objectives: Serial intralesional steroid injection (SILSI) is an emerging treatment for idiopathic subglottic stenosis (ISGS), providing improvement in both subjective symptoms and objective airflow parameters. Little is known about how this airway remodeling affects the voice. This project analyzes subjective voice changes after SILSI and correlates these with airflow parameters.
