An evidence based approach to the management of salivary massesEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusion: The majority of salivary gland swellings can be adequately assessed with ultrasound and ultrasound guided FNA. The majority of patients with salivary gland tumours are likely to benefit from surgical excision. Due to the higher risk of malignancy in submandibular gland tumours surgical excision should be undertaken, unless there is significant co-morbidity. (Source: Clinical Otolaryngology)

A pilot study of the SNOT 22 score in adults with no sinonasal diseaseEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusion: Due to the scewed nature of the data, the median score (7) is taken as the normal SNOT 22 score. We recommend that in an clincial situation a SNOT 22 score of 7 be used a a guide for "normal", and that care should be taken when suggesting treatment on patients with a score below this level.

Laryngeal epithelial thickness: a comparison between optical coherence tomography and histologyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: Optical coherence tomography does not have the artifacts associated with conventional histologic techniques. The inevitable development of office-based optical coherence tomography devices will increase the precision of laryngeal measurements and contribute to the clinical application of this technology in diagnosing laryngeal disease.

Laryngopharyngeal reflux: a prospective analysis of a 34 item symptom questionnaireEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: Neither the most popular 'lower' oesophageal (GSAS) nor the 'throat' reflux (RSI) questionnaire adequately captures the full range of potential reflux symptoms regularly encountered in otolaryngology patients: inadequate evaluation of patients' symptoms may have contributed to the ongoing uncertainty about the role of acid or pepsin suppression. A more comprehensive reflux questionnaire is needed to characterise the true reflux correlations of laryngopharyngeal symptoms, and offer a symptom-specific measure of response to placebo and anti-reflux therapy.

Psychometric validity of the 22-item Sinonasal Outcome TestEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: We have found the SNOT-22 to be valid and easy to use. It can be used to facilitate routine clinical practice to highlight the impact of chronic rhinosinusitis on the patient's quality of life, and may also be used to measure the outcome of surgical intervention. The minimally important difference allows us to interpret scores in a clinical context, and may help to improve patient selection for surgery. (Source: Clinical Otolaryngology)

Evaluation of cost effectiveness for conservative and active management strategies for acoustic neuromaEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusion: An economic advantage can be demonstrated for the conservative management of acoustic neuromas compared to microsurgical removal and gamma knife radiotherapy on the proviso that no increase in active treatment complications arose from continued tumour growth during the period of observation.

A systematic review to assess the anatomical correlates of the notches in acoustic rhinometryEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: The majority of Acoustic Rhinometry studies affirm that the first notch is the nasal valve and the second is the anterior end of the inferior turbinate. These findings were based on papers that had not studied the anatomical correlation of these notches. Other studies claim that the first notch is the nostril and the second is the nasal valve as a whole. The conclusion that can be drawn concerning anatomic correlation of the first two notches is that there are conflicting opinions about this correlation in the literature and that more studies are needed to provide more convincing data.

Is musical hallucination an otological phenomenon? a review of the literatureEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: This review supports the proposal that the otological system plays a role in the pathogenesis of musical hallucination. Hearing impairment may act as an initiating factor, and the primary dysfunction is overactivity of auditory association cortex, although an impairment of higher-level inhibition does also seem necessary. Once underlying sinister causes have been excluded, first line treatment should be explanation of the condition and optimisation of hearing. Medications have a role only in selected patient groups.
