Plasma gel as a new augmentation material for injection laryngoplasty in rabbit model: histologic analysis.

Objectives: Currently, a variety of materials are available for the treatment of glottal insufficiency. Ideal injection materials should be inexpensive, easily obtainable, nontoxic, and biocompatible. Plasma gel has recently been developed as an injectable, autologous material used in plastic surgery.

Diagnostic value of only 18F-fluorodeocyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography-positive lymph nodes in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective: The role of (18)F-fluorodeocyglucose positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in only PET/CT-positive lymph nodes (LNs) is not well elucidated yet. This study was conducted to evaluate the diagnostic value of only PET/CT-positive LNs without correlating positive findings on conventional imaging modalities (CT, magnetic resonance imaging [MRI], and ultrasound [US]) in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).

Study Design: Case series with chart review.

Diversity of head shaking nystagmus in peripheral vestibular disease.

Objectives: To evaluate the characteristics of head shaking nystagmus in various peripheral vestibular diseases.

Study Design: Retrospective case series.

Setting: Tertiary referral center.
