New research published in The Laryngoscope sheds light on Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) among patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) in Ontario, Canada. This research highlights the importance of palliative care, symptom management, and patient autonomy for those living with non-curative HNC. As MAiD becomes a more utilized option, understanding who is accessing it — and why — is critical to closing gaps in care.

💉 Can we manage idiopathic subglottic stenosis without the OR? A new systematic review in The Laryngoscope finds that in-office steroid injections improve surgery-free intervals, airway diameter, and dyspnea scores — with triamcinolone leading in 10 of 14 studies. Protocol standardization is still needed, but the evidence is building. 📖 doi.org/10.1002/lary.70300

🔬 A new technique worth knowing! Stanford surgeons describe Middle Turbinate Release with Preservation (MTRP) — a first-of-its-kind approach that spares a critical endonasal landmark during expanded endonasal skull base surgery, rather than resecting it. The MT is temporarily swung into the maxillary antrum for full access, then repositioned at closure — preserving anatomy and sinonasal function without compromising the surgical corridor. Check out this new technique and video! 📖 doi.org/10.1002/lary.70381

“How do I prepare?” is often the first question patients ask before surgery.
