Objective: To propose a European consensus for managing and treating laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD) to guide primary care and specialist physicians.
Methods: Twenty-three European experts (otolaryngologists, gastroenterologists, surgeons) participated in a modified Delphi process to revise 38 statements about the definition, clinical management, and treatment of LPRD. Three voting rounds were conducted on a 5-point scale and a consensus was defined a priori as agreement by 80% of the experts.
Objective: To review the current literature about surgical management and postoperative outcomes of posterior glottic stenosis (PGS).
Data Sources: PubMED, Scopus, and Cochrane Library.
Methods: Three investigators conducted a comprehensive review of the literature related to the epidemiology, etiologies, and management of adult patients with PGS through the PRISMA statements.
Objectives: To compare the presurgical to postsurgical voice quality (VQ) outcomes of types I, II, III, and VI transoral laser cordectomies (TLC).
Study Design: Prospective uncontrolled study.
Setting: Multicenter study.
The inaugural total laryngectomy in history was conducted by Billroth in 1873. Nevertheless, significant enhancements to the technique were achieved through the contributions of Gluck, Sorensen, and various other surgeons. Throughout the twentieth century, advancements in anesthesia, infectious disease, hospital hygiene, antibiotic therapy, resuscitation, and the expertise of numerous laryngologists elevated total laryngectomy to a pivotal surgical intervention in head and neck surgery.

- - Young European otolaryngologists (OTOs) were surveyed about their views on transoral robotic surgery (TORS), revealing a 26% response rate from participants.
- - Key barriers to TORS adoption included robot availability (73%), high costs (69%), and insufficient training (37%), while the main advantages were better surgical visibility (64%), reduced hospital stays (62%), and improved post-op outcomes (61%).
- - Despite these challenges, 67% of TORS practitioners felt adequately trained, and there was an overall positive perception of TORS among young OTOs, especially for specific cancer types and conditions.
