Larynx01:21

Larynx

1.4K
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,...

Barrett Esophagus-II: Clinical Manifestations and Management

138
Individuals with Barrett's esophagus are often asymptomatic, but they may experience symptoms commonly associated with GERD, such as heartburn and acid regurgitation. Additional symptoms can include difficulty swallowing, chest pain, unintentional weight loss, blood in the stool (which may appear black, tarry, or bloody), and episodes of vomiting.
To diagnose Barrett's esophagus, healthcare providers often recommend an endoscopy for those showing symptoms of acid reflux. The procedure...

Targeted Cancer Therapies02:57

Targeted Cancer Therapies

7.5K
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.
There are several types of targeted therapies against...

Esophageal Strictures-II: Clinical Features and Management

63
Patients with esophageal strictures often experience a range of symptoms. Initially, they may have difficulty swallowing solid foods, which can progress to include liquids. Additional symptoms may involve chest pain or discomfort, regurgitating food and fluids, heartburn, unintentional weight loss, coughing or choking during meals, and hoarseness.
Healthcare providers should gather a comprehensive medical history and conduct a physical examination for diagnosis. If esophageal stricture is...

Trachea01:22

Trachea

1.9K
The trachea, commonly known as the windpipe, is a vital part of the human respiratory system. It serves as a passageway for air to travel between the larynx and the bronchi, allowing oxygen to reach the lungs. Let's explore its anatomical features, dimensions, layers of the tracheal wall, associated muscles, and the functions of its parts.
Anatomical Features:
Location: About half of the trachea is situated in the neck, anterior to the esophagus, and extends from the larynx (at the level of...

Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy01:30

Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy

187
Endoscopy is a non-surgical medical technique used to examine a person's internal organs and vessels. This lesson will focus on two types of endoscopic studies: bronchoscopy and thoracoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due...

Summary

Laryngeal chondromas are rare benign tumors. This review found they have low recurrence and minimal mortality, with resection being a common treatment with few complications.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Laryngeal chondromas (LC) are rare benign mesenchymal tumors, comprising <1% of laryngeal neoplasms.
  • These tumors typically exhibit slow growth and commonly originate in the cricoid cartilage.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a scoping review of the existing literature on laryngeal chondromas.
  • To summarize the epidemiology, clinical characteristics, morbidity, and recurrence rates of LC.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive search of multiple databases (MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, etc.) was performed.
  • Observational studies describing LC published from 1816 to 2023 were included.
  • Data extraction and narrative synthesis were employed to summarize findings from 119 eligible studies.

Main Results:

  • The review included 204 participants from 119 studies (94 case reports, 22 case series, 3 cohorts).
  • The male:female ratio was 2.8:1, with the cricoid cartilage being the most frequent site (47.08%).
  • Dyspnea and hoarseness were the predominant symptoms; recurrence was observed in 11.25% of cases with uncommon post-resection complications.

Conclusions:

  • Laryngeal chondromas are infrequent cartilaginous tumors of the larynx.
  • Resection is a common treatment, associated with a low rate of malignant transformation.
  • Current literature indicates low attributable mortality, morbidity, and recurrence for laryngeal chondromas.
