Giant cell tumors (GCT) of hyoid bone are very rare, and only few individual cases were reported in literature. We present such a case of GCT arising from left cornu of hyoid bone. The patient underwent trans-cervical complete excision of the tumour. Postoperatively, patient did well without recurrence or metastasis for 2 years follow up.

Swallowing is a complex neuromuscular process involving the coordination of anatomical structures in the central and peripheral nervous systems. The posture of the head and neck plays a critical role in the biomechanics of swallowing, especially in populations with dysphagia. This systematic review aims to explore the impact of head-neck posture on swallowing kinematics and muscle activation, providing a multidisciplinary perspective for optimizing dysphagia management.

Anatomy is critical for understanding the physiological and biological adaptations of living creatures. In the case of , an anguimorph lizard belonging to the Order Squamata, it is particularly important considering the scarce previous works on the morphology of its coelomic cavity. It is interesting to consider that, over the years, using non-invasive approaches in reptiles, such as diagnostic imaging methods, is becoming popular for both scientific and clinical purposes.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate swallowing function of older adults with lowered hyoid bone position.
Methods: A total of 60 older adults (23 males and 37 females, mean age: 70.1 years) with no diagnosed dysphagia participated in the study.

BACKGROUND The thyroid cartilage is the most prominent laryngeal cartilage located beneath the hyoid bone. Non-traumatic fractures of the larynx, including the thyroid cartilage, are rare and can occur when the glottis is closed and intrathoracic pressure suddenly increases. This report describes the case of a 42-year-old man presenting with hoarseness and pain when swallowing and a diagnosis of non-traumatic thyroid cartilage fracture following sudden neck movement, highlighting the importance of recognizing atypical mechanisms of laryngeal injury.

A 2-year-old Norfolk Terrier purebred female dog was presented for urgent attention after strangulation secondary to elevator entrapment. The traumatic event caused a complex laryngopharyngeal lesion with total laryngotracheal and esophageal separation from the hyoid bone and pharynx. Reconstruction was performed from the posterior pharyngeal wall, and all layers, mucosa, muscles and ligaments were repaired.
