    Abstract Iatrogenic laryngotracheal stenosis (iLTS) is a pathological condition characterized by the narrowing of the laryngeal and tracheal structures due to the formation of abnormal scar tissue. The core of iLTS lies in the fibrosis of the laryngotracheal tissue, and recent research has unveiled novel discoveries regarding the underlying mechanisms of fibrosis. This review provides an overview of the recent advancements in understanding the mechanisms of fibrosis in iLTS. It encompasses various aspects, such as immune system dysregulation, changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM), metabolic alterations, and the role of microbial flora. The review also explores the interplay and relationships between these new mechanisms, establishing a theoretical foundation for the development of multi-target therapies and combination therapies for iLTS.

    Abstract Background: Laryngotracheal stenosis (LTS) is a life-threatening disease that commonly results in airway obstruction in children. Traditional treatments such as laryngotracheal reconstruction and balloon dilation all have the risk of laryngotracheal restenosis. It is of great importance to spare patients the morbidity of LTS and risks of restenosis associated with these treatments. Laboratory and clinical trials have focused on fibrosis, the crucial pathological process of LTS. This study was undertaken to investigate the function of CXC chemokine receptor-7 (
    Methods: RNA sequencing was performed on acquired human LTS and normal trachea tissues to analyze differentially expressed genes. Fibroblasts from LTS and normal trachea tissues were isolated and cultured.
    Results: RNA sequencing showed that

    Abstract Objective To discuss the value of MRI in diagnosing and evaluating the pediatric head and neck lymphatic malformations (HNLMs). Methods We performed a retrospective review of 46 children who were referred to our hospital in the last decade for the treatment of HNLMs. Results About 34 cases confirmed with intralesional hemorrhage while the capsule contents were dark red or light bloody liquid. The remaining 12 pure HNLMs were filled with yellow clear or watery liquid. The multilocular HNLMs accounted for 95.7 % (44/46). The accuracy of contrast enhanced MRI (CE-MRI) diagnosis of HNLMs was 100 %. On MRI, the HNLMs appeared as irregular shape [95.7 % (44/46)], clear boundary [91.3 % (42/46)], infiltrative growth [91.3 % (42/46)] cystic masses. The cystic wall and septa were hyperintense on T1WI and hypointense on T2WI (100 %), and displayed enhancement. The capsule contents had hypointense on T1WI and hyperintense on T2WI in 18 cases (pure HNLMs,12; intracystic hemorrhage,6), while that of mixed signal in 28 cases (pure HNLMs,0; intracystic hemorrhage,28). Capsule contents were enhanced in 22 cases (pure HNLMs,1; intracystic hemorrhage,21), while the remaining 24 without enhancement (pure HNLMs,11; intracystic hemorrhage,13). Liquid-liquid levers were found in 21 cases (pure HNLMs,0; intracystic hemorrhage,21). There were statistical differences in capsule contents signal, enhancement, and liquid-liquid levels between the two groups (P < 0.05). Conclusions On MRI, HNLMs typically show a thin-walled, well-circumscribed, irregularly shaped, infiltrative, unenhanced, multilocular cystic mass with hypointense on T1WI and hyperintense on T2WI. The capsule wall and septa are hyperintense on T1WI, hypointense on T2WI, and display enhancement. Changes in the signal of capsule contents or appearance of liquid-liquid levels indicate intracystic hemorrhage.

    Abstract Objective: To review the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of head and neck lymphatic malformations (HNLMs) in children.
    Methods: A retrospective study of 91 patients with HNLMs was performed.
    Results: The age ranged from 1 day to 14 years, of which 82.4 % (75/91) were under 2 years old and 45.1 % (41/91) were diagnosed at birth. The diagnostic rates of ultrasound, CT and MRI were 80.2 % (73/91), 90.1 % (82/91) and 100 % (8/8) respectively. There were 2 cases of complete excision, 8 of bleomycin sclerotherapy, and 81 of subtotal resection combined with bleomycin irrigation. Followed up for 3-93 months, all 91 cases were cured.
    Conclusions: HNLMs mostly occur within 2 years old, and nearly half of them are present at birth. Characteristic imaging findings can assist clinicians in diagnosis and treatment plan. Subtotal resection combined with bleomycin irrigation may be an appropriate first-line therapy for HNLMs involving the vital anatomical structures.

    Abstract Objective: To explore the clinical characteristics and surgical treatment of children with bronchogenic cysts (BCs) in the head and neck region.
    Methods: A retrospective study of 10 pediatric patients with BCs in the head and neck region treated in Shanghai Children's Hospital during 2011 to 2022 was performed.
    Results: Based on their pathological diagnosis, 10 patients with BCs in the head and neck were identified. The most common location was the neck (8 patients, 80%; 2 midline neck, 6 lateral neck), followed by the ventral tip of tongue (1 patient), and the posterior pharyngeal wall (1 patient). Misdiagnosed as lymphangioma in 5 cases, cyst in 3 cases, thyroglossal duct cyst (TGDC) in 2 cases and congenital pyriform sinus fistula (CPSF) in 1 case preoperative. The median follow-up period after surgery was 4.68 (range, 0.67-9.25) years. All 10 patients underwent complete resection without recurrence or other complications.
    Conclusions: Although extremely rare, BCs should be considered in the differential diagnosis of midline and lateral neck masses or intraoral cysts in children. Surgical excision is recommended in BCs, and the diagnosis is definitively confirmed by histopathology.

    Abstract Objective: To investigate the clinical features and surgical outcomes of pediatric congenital first branchial cleft anomalies (CFBCAs).
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 100 children who were referred to Shanghai Children's Hospital from March 2014 to March 2022 for the treatment of CFBCAs.
    Results: This study included 100 patients (33 males, 67 females) with an average age of 4.0 ± 2.7 years. 64 cases were type I FBCAs and 36 were type II. The main clinical manifestations included having a skin pit or discharge from it (62%), painless masses (5%), mucopurulent otorrhea (8%) and recurrent swelling with pain (90%) in the Pochet's triangle area. 92% had infection histories, 84% had incision and drainage histories, and 18% had surgical histories. 6 cases of tympanic membranous attachment were found by auricular endoscopy. Ultrasonography (US) was 55.6% (30/54) accurate and enhanced CT was 75% (75/100) accurate in diagnosing CFBCAs. We dissected the facial nerve (FN) in 46% cases. Lesions ended in the external auditory canal (EAC) wall in 86 cases. 69 exhibited close relationship with the parotid. The patients were followed up 0.25-8.2 years. 11 had postoperative temporary facial paralysis and all improved within 6 months. 3 had recurrence and they were secondarily successfully retreated. No EAC stenosis were found.
    Conclusions: CFBCAs often presented with repeated swelling and purulence in Pochet's triangle. CT, US and auricular endoscopy can assist in diagnosis and planning the surgical strategy. Complete excision in non-infection stage as soon as possible is the first choice for the treatment of CFBCAs.

    Abstract Objective: The objectives of this study was to review the clinical features and surgical treatment outcomes of congenital second branchial cleft anomalies (CSBCAs) and to investigate the characteristic computed tomography (CT) findings of CSBCAs.
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of 52 children who were referred to Shanghai Children's Hospital from October 2014 to December 2021 diagnosed as CSBCAs.
    Results: There were 36 males and 16 females. Of them, 35 patients were presented as having a skin pit at birth or discharge from the skin opening on the lateral neck, and 17 patients presented with an asymptomatic or painful mass. The typical CT features of CSBCAs included isolated and homogeneously hypodense cystic lesions surrounded by a uniformly thin, smooth wall. CSBCAs were generally located at the anteromedial border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle, posterior to the submandibular gland, and lateral to the carotid sheath. All patients were treated surgically and only one case underwent ipsilateral tonsillectomy. After a median follow-up of 30 (range 4-90) months, no recurrence or complications were observed.
    Conclusions: The CSBCAs show some characteristic CT findings, which can help clinicians diagnose and plan surgical strategies. High ligation of the lesions is sufficient for complete excision of CSBCAs.

    Abstract Objectives: To investigate the clinical characteristics of infantile subglottic hemangioma (SGH), and to observe the safety and efficacy of propranolol in the treatment of SGH.
    Methods: The data of 21 children diagnosed with SGH and treated with propranolol in our hospital from March 2013 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed and followed up.
    Results: Among the 21 cases, there were 7 males and 14 females. SGH was found 11 left-sided, 9 right-sided and 1 bilateral-sided. The clinical manifestations included stridor (13/21), respiratory distress (6/21), barking cough (5/21), feeding difficulty (4/21), three concave sign (4/21), cyanosis (2/21) and hoarseness (1/21). 8 patients had multiple cutaneous hemangiomas. The age of presentation ranged from 1 to 8 months, with a median of 1.1 months. 18 cases (85.7 %) had a history of misdiagnosis, 14 bronchitis/pneumonia, 5 laryngomalacia, 2 laryngeal obstruction and 1 asthma. The median ages at diagnosis were 3 months, with a range of 1.2-28 months. The treatment duration ranged from 6 to 25.6 months, with an average of (14.3 ± 4.9) months. Age at termination of treatment ranged from 9 to 38 months, with a median of 18.6 months, and only 2 cases were beyond 2 years old at that time. No adverse side effects from propranolol therapy occurred and all 21 cases were cured.
    Conclusions: We advocate a strong index of suspicion for SGH presenting with respiratory symptoms under 2 years old who has poor effect or repeated condition after routine treatment. Laryngoscopy combined with contrast-enhanced CT can confirm the diagnosis of SGH. Oral propranolol is safe and effective, and that early diagnosis and intervention of propranolol without further delay are crucial to the successful management. We advocate continue propranolol treatment beyond 18 months of age, furthermore, 2 years old may be the best time for therapy termination.
