Larynx

Larynx

The human larynx, often referred to as the voice box, is an intricate organ located in the neck. It serves as a pathway for air to enter the lungs during respiration and is an essential component of voice production.
Anatomy of the Larynx
The larynx consists of various components, including cartilage, muscles, and vocal cords. Its structure includes three large unpaired cartilages—the thyroid, cricoid, and epiglottis—and three smaller paired cartilages—the arytenoids,...

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

In humans, more than 80% of the genome gets transcribed. However, only around 2% of the genome codes for proteins. The remaining part produces non-coding RNAs which includes ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs, telomerase RNAs, and regulatory RNAs, among other types. A large number of regulatory non-coding RNAs have been classified into two groups depending upon their length – small non-coding RNAs, such as microRNA, which are less than 200 nucleotides in length, and long non-coding RNA...

Other Pulmonary Disorders

Other Pulmonary Disorders

Respiratory disorders encompass a range of conditions with varying levels of severity. Asthma, marked by chronic airway inflammation and hypersensitivity, is one such condition. It can lead to airway obstruction due to factors like bronchial spasms, mucosal edema, increased mucus secretion, or epithelial damage. Asthma triggers are diverse, ranging from allergens to emotional upset, and treatment focuses on both immediate relief through bronchodilators and long-term inflammation suppression.

Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer

Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer

Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.
RSV is a retrovirus that contains two copies of a plus-strand RNA genome. Its genome consists of four main open...

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation V: Advanced Airway Management Techniques

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation V: Advanced Airway Management Techniques

Airway management is essential in emergency and surgical medicine, ensuring ventilation and oxygenation in patients who cannot maintain their own airway. Clinicians use a range of techniques and devices to secure the airway, depending on the patient’s condition and the clinical context. Key methods include endotracheal intubation, rapid sequence intubation (RSI), supraglottic airway devices, and advanced visualization aids. In cases where these approaches fail, surgical airway...

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Recent studies indicate that while laryngeal preservation is key in treating advanced laryngeal carcinoma, functional outcomes must also be prioritized. Supracricoid laryngectomy shows promise for select patients.

Area of Science:

Otolaryngology
Head and Neck Surgery
Oncology

Background:

Treatment for laryngeal carcinoma has shifted from total laryngectomy to chemoradiation.
Recent data suggest a need to re-evaluate partial laryngectomy approaches.

Purpose of the Study:

To review the evolving treatment landscape for advanced laryngeal carcinoma.
To assess the role of partial laryngectomy in maintaining laryngeal function.

Main Methods:

Review of recent clinical data and treatment trends.
Analysis of outcomes for different laryngeal cancer treatment modalities.

Main Results:

Laryngeal preservation does not guarantee laryngeal function.
Operative management, including supracricoid laryngectomy, is increasingly supported for select advanced laryngeal carcinoma patients.
Supracricoid laryngectomy may preserve laryngeal function in intermediate and selected advanced cases.

Conclusions:

The focus in advanced laryngeal carcinoma treatment is balancing locoregional control with functional larynx preservation.
Partial laryngectomy techniques are being revisited to optimize functional outcomes.
