Endoscopic Sinus Surgery More Cost-Effective than Dupilumab in Treatment of Patients with Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps
Dupilumab is a novel monoclonal antibody that shows promise in treating patients with CRSwNP who fail initial medical management. ESS, the mainstay therapy for CRSwNP, has been shown to be clinically effective and cost-effective when compared to long-term medical management.
Adding Enhanced Measurements to Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy Aids in Distinguishing Central from Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Patients
Central sleep apnea can be easily mistaken for obstructive sleep apnea; enhancing during drug-induced sleep endoscopy with additional measurements enables sleep surgeons to correlate physiologic and anatomic assessment to distinguish between the two apneas.
Remotely Reported Peak Flow Meter Measurements Demonstrate Disease Progression, Predict Need for Surgery in Patients with Subglottal Stenosis
Peak flow meter measurements can adequately demonstrate disease progression and predict the need for surgery in patients with SGS disease and, together with dyspnea Index (DI) scores, may be a useful tool for remotely following these patients.
Upfront Transoral Laser Microsurgery May Offer Survival Benefit Over Radiotherapy in Patients With Early-Stage Supraglottic Squamous Cell Carcinoma
An upfront Transoral Laser Microsurgery-based surgical approach to T2N0 SSCC may offer an overall survival benefit compared with definitive Radiotherapy in Patients with Early-Stage Supraglottic Squamous Cell Carcinoma.
