Objectives: To analyze the area under curve (AUC) from 24-hour pharyngeal pH probes and evaluate this parameter as a predictor of disease severity for laryngopharyngeal reflux. Methods: Eighty patients met inclusion criteria completed probe Reflux Symptom Index (RSI) questionnaire. The AUC was calculated below threshold 5.5 using trapezoidal rule. RSI RYAN scores were correlated with values, nonparametric tests used comparisons. Results: median value 18 007 pH-seconds an interquartile range...
Congenital midline lingual lesions are rare complex problems in the pediatric population, causing issues ranging from feeding difficulty to life-threatening airway obstruction. Treatment options generally include excision1 or marsupialization.3 Due size and configuration of neonatal pharynx, resections tongue base masses present a unique surgical challenge. The method positioning retractor type placement critical for visualization. For actual resection, flexible fiberoptic laser is ideal...
