Results of CO2 laser surgery in laryngeal papillomatosis.

Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis is medical condition strictly connected with HPV infection of the epithelium of the upper respiratory track. The main treatment of lesions located in larynx or lower pharynx includes microsurgical excision by using CO2 laser. A thorough preoperative assessment of patients is extremely important, which should not only be based on traditional laryngological examination, but also on endoscopy of the larynx and the use of the NBI (narrow band imaging) technique to assess the vascularization of lesions.

The Clinical and Surgical Characteristics of Parotid Tumors with Parapharyngeal Space Involvement-A Multicenter Experience of the Polish Salivary Network.

Parotid gland tumors (PGTs) with parapharyngeal space (PPS) involvement have a specific clinical course and they can be a great challenge for surgeons, especially due to more difficult approaches and the risk of serious complications. The aim of this study is to present the characteristics of PGTs with PPS involvement. : Retrospective, multicenter analysis of 1954 primary PGTs from 5 years (2017-2021) was performed.

Renewed Concept of Mastoid Cavity Obliteration with the Use of Temporoparietal Fascial Flap Injected by Injectable Platelet-Rich Fibrin after Subtotal Petrosectomy for Cochlear Implant Patients.

The subtotal petrosectomy procedure may be useful for cochlear implantation in selected patient groups. Although it is highly effective, complications can arise, which may have economic implications for the patient due to the high cost of the device. Therefore, several authors have attempted to identify the most effective concept for obliteration.

Voice Rehabilitation After Laryngeal Transplantation: Own Experience.

Background And Purpose: Laryngeal transplantation (LT) remains an infrequently performed procedure due to well-defined and limited medical indications. The challenges include a very complicated surgery, continuous immunosuppressive treatment, as well as post-transplant rehabilitation of voice, speech, and swallowing. The aim of this paper is to describe a model of voice and speech rehabilitation after LT, based on our own experience.
