TXA is increasingly used in otolaryngology to reduce intra-operative and post-operative bleeding, supported by evidence from emergency medicine and orthopedic surgery. Its safety profile is strong, and it is administered intravenously or orally, with emerging use in pediatric and adult otolaryngologic procedures.
Radiotherapy achieved durable tumor control in most growing vestibular schwannomas, with outcomes unaffected by pre-treatment tumor size or location.
What is the current state of semiautomated and fully automated methods for assessing technical skill and performance in otologic and neurotologic surgery?
Military audiology integrates advanced research and clinical care to protect and restore hearing health in service members and veterans. Efforts include innovative diagnostic tools, protective devices, and treatments for hearing loss and tinnitus.
Hearing loss genes vary widely in treatment favorability; thus, targeting development efforts to promising candidates will ensure the highest likelihood of clinical success. Several genes were identified as appealing targets.
Study results suggest a link between certain dietary elements and a lower incidence of tinnitus.
Although OCT was not capable of replacing CT due to its limited field of view (FOV) and inability to image through thick bony tissues, it visualized signs of pathology that are difficult to visualize with CT, suggesting its usefulness for some middle ear diagnostics.

Clinical trials focus on OTOF-associated hearing loss, but other genes identified as appealing next targets
What are the differences in otolaryngology interview and match outcomes between applicants with and without home residency programs?
