    Abstract Diagnosis of larynx cancer relies on a detailed history and physical and objective assessment with endoscopy and imaging. Endoscopy is needed to assess for vocal fold function that directly affects staging. Computed tomography and MRI can be used to assess for tumor extent in relation to intra- and extra-laryngeal structures, especially paraglottic and pre-epiglottic space involvement as well as cartilage invasion. Accurate staging is critical for subsequent treatment decision-making regarding larynx preservation.

    Abstract Objectives: Fungal tissue invasion in the setting of sinonasal malignancy has been rarely described in the literature. Only a handful of studies have discussed cases of suspected chronic and acute IFS (CIFS and AIFS, respectively), having an underlying undifferentiated sinonasal carcinoma, sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma, and NK/T-cell lymphoma.
    Methods: Here, we describe 3 cases of carcinoma mimicking IFS from a single institution.
    Results: Each of our patients presented with sinonasal complaints as an outpatient in the setting of immunosuppression. Intranasal biopsies consistently were predominated by necrotic debris, with and without fungal elements, ultimately leading to a delay of oncologic care. The final pathologies included NK/T-cell lymphoma and SNEC. All patients were followed by radiation and chemotherapy, with 1 case of mortality.
    Conclusions: We aim to emphasize the importance of obtaining viable tissue as pathology specimens as the presence of necrosis with fungal elements may limit the diagnosis and ultimately delay the care of an underlying sinonasal carcinoma.

    Abstract This article summarizes major and minor complications following transoral robotic surgery in the head and neck. Overall, transoral robotic surgery is extremely safe; however, surgeons must recognize inherent risks associated with major and severe bleeding, dysphagia, and minor complications, including injury to nerves, mucosal surfaces, teeth, and the eyes. This article briefly discusses prevention and management strategies for common complications.

    Abstract Introduction: While minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has transformed the treatment landscape of surgical care, its utilization is not well understood. The newly released Nationwide Ambulatory Surgery Sample allows for more accurate estimates of MIS volume in the United States-in combination with inpatient datasets.
    Materials and methods: Multiple nationwide databases from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP) were used: the Nationwide Ambulatory Surgery Sample and National Inpatient Sample. The volume of MIS and robotic procedures were calculated from 2016 to 2018. An online query system, HCUPNet, was queried for inpatient stays from 1993 to 2014.
    Results: In 2017, 9.8 million inpatient major operating room procedures were analyzed, of which 11.1% were MIS and 2.5% were robotic-assisted, compared with 9.6 million inpatient operating room procedures (11.2% MIS and 2.9% robotic-assisted) in 2018. There were 10.6, 10.6, and 10.7 million ambulatory procedures in 2016, 2017, and 2018, respectively. Ambulatory MIS procedures showed an increasing trend across years, representing 16.9%, 17.4%, and 18%, respectively. HCUPNet data revealed an increase in inpatient MIS cases from 529,811 (8.9%) in 1993 to 1,443,446 (20.7%) in 2014.
    Conclusions: This study is the first to estimate national MIS volume across specialties in both inpatient and ambulatory hospital settings. We found a trend toward a higher proportion of MIS and robotic cases from 1997 to 2018. These data may help contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of MIS value within surgery and highlight limitations of current databases, especially when categorizing robotic cases on a national scale.

    Abstract Background: The impact of monoclonal antibody therapy (mAB) for advanced head and neck cancer on end-of-life health care utilization and costs has yet to be adequately studied.
    Methods: Retrospective cohort study of patients aged 65 and over with a diagnosis of head and neck cancer between 2007 and 2017 within the SEER-Medicare registry assessing the impact of mAB therapy (i.e., cetuximab, nivolumab, or pembrolizumab) on end-of-life health care utilization (ED visits, inpatient admissions, ICU admissions, and hospice claims) and costs.
    Results: Of 12 544 patients with HNC, 270 (2.2%) utilized mAB therapy at the end-of-life period. On multivariable analyses adjusting for demographic and clinicopathologic characteristics, there was a significant association between mAB therapy and emergency department visits (OR: 1.38, 95% CI: 1.1-1.8, p = 0.01) and healthcare costs (β: $9760, 95% CI: 5062-14 458, p < 0.01).
    Conclusions: mAB use is associated with higher emergency department utilization and health care costs potentially due to infusion-related and drug toxicity expenses.

    Abstract The Quality Oncology Practice Initiative has several metrics related to end-of life (EOL) care, including hospice enrollment ≤3 days, with lower scores signaling better performance. Of privately insured patients with head and neck cancer, 3.5% were enrolled in hospice prior to death and 21.3% spent ≤3 days in hospice, indicating aggressive EOL care. Patients with late hospice enrollment had higher spending in the last 30 days of life (DOL). Patients in hospice ≤3 days spent $37,426, while those in hospice >3 days spent $24,418 (

    Abstract Hearing loss is the most common sensory disorder in the USA. The diagnosis of congenital hearing loss starts with newborn hearing screening, which is best performed with auditory brainstem evoked responses in order to avoid the risk of missing auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder. A careful history and physical exam can occasionally help reveal the etiology for congenital hearing loss. Imaging studies, either CT temporal bones or MRI of the internal auditory canals without gadolinium, and genetic testing, in particular for connexin 26, connexin 30, and Pendred syndrome, are the most useful diagnostic tests. Management of congenital hearing loss involves early fitting of amplification. Early cochlear implantation, preferably before 2 years of age, should be strongly considered for children with bilateral severe hearing loss.
