Introduction: Indirect laryngoscopy development and progress initiated in 1854 by the autolaryngoscopy of the famous singing voice teacher Manuel Garcia in ENT speciality is connected with the names of L. Tuerck and J.N. Czermak, the last one being called the father of laryngoscopy. In 1878 M. Oertel used for the first time stroboscopic light in indirect laryngoscopy. The perception of stroboscopic picture is based on the Talbot principle.
Object Of The Paper: Two apparatuses used for the evaluation of larynx function in the Poznań ENT Department before the II World War are presented:--Polylaryngoscop enabling evaluation the indirect laryngoscopy simultaneously by several individuals.--Mechanical stroboscop of Oertel type with perforated disc moved by electrical engine.
Conclusion: For 130 years laryngostroboscopy belongs to the basic examination methods of larynx phonatory function.

Background Thyroid surgeries have become so common that they are performed for both benign and malignant conditions of the thyroid. However, hypoparathyroidism and recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury may turn out to be a nightmare, complicating the surgical outcome. This study will, therefore, attempt to assess the complications related to different types of thyroid surgeries in order to identify the risk factors involved.

Endotracheal intubation (ETI), a potentially lifesaving intervention employed frequently in the emergent setting, is a manual skill that improves with repetitive practice and high-quality feedback. Classically, ETI centered around Direct Laryngoscopy (DL); however, with the advent and recent availability of Indirect Video Laryngoscopy (IVL) and Direct Video Laryngoscopy (DVL), studies have demonstrated varying results on the benefit of Video Laryngoscopy (VL) in training. We hypothesize that a training program centered on DVL, allowing students to visualize the anatomy and simultaneously receive instructor feedback via a real-time video feed, will practically improve student performance in DL.

Article Synopsis
- This study investigates how supraglottic cancer affects swallowing abilities and how these change after laser surgery, aiming to improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
- Patients with supraglottic cancer were assessed for swallowing difficulties using a questionnaire before and six months after surgery, while detailing their medical history and treatment.
- Results indicated a mix of swallowing improvements among patients, with factors like additional therapies and smoking influencing recovery outcomes.

Gaining and maintaining proficiency at endotracheal intubation is challenging. Recent clinical trials suggest videolaryngoscopy is beneficial for teaching inexperienced clinicians to intubate newborn infants, but may take longer compared to standard laryngoscopy. Preferences for devices among clinicians are unclear.
