RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: Intraoral thyroglossal duct cyst is a relatively rare clinical disease. This article reviews the diagnosis and treatment process of 7 patients and explores the clinical characteristics of diagnosis and treatment of intraoral thyroglossal duct cyst in combination with past literature reports. METHOD: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 7 cases of intraoral thyroglossal duct cyst admitted to the Otolaryngology ward of Dalian Municipal Central Hospital from January 2017 to January 2024. The cases were recorded in terms of gender, age, symptoms, physical signs, radiological examinations, surgical methods, and postoperative complications. All cases were followed up, and the latest follow-up results were recorded. RESULTS: Among the 7 cases, 6 patients underwent laryngoscopic and radiological examinations before surgery, and 1 child was found to have a cyst during surgery. All cases were diagnosed with intraoral thyroglossal duct cyst and treated with plasma radiofrequency surgery. None of the patients had postoperative complications, and no recurrence was found in the six-month follow-up after discharge. CONCLUSION: Intraoral thyroglossal duct cyst is rare in clinical practice. It is important to pay attention to its differential diagnosis clinically, and careful review of images is required before surgery. Cryoablation with low-temperature plasma radiofrequency is not only minimally invasive and has a quick recovery but also has few complications and a low recurrence rate. It is a safe and effective treatment method that is worthy of clinical promotion. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level 3.

Objective: To determine the significance of the nasopharyngeal cavity area (S) in diagnosing and treating adenoid hypertrophy (AH) in children by measuring it with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of eighty-five 5- to 6-year-old children with AH admitted to the Department of Otorhinolaryngology at Dalian Central Hospital between January 2022 and April 2023. Of the 85 patients, 48 were male and 37 were female; all had been diagnosed with AH and underwent surgery. Sleeping with open-mouth breathing was frequently accompanied by clinical manifestations such as chronic sinusitis in most patients. Every patient was subjected to a CBCT examination of the nasopharynx and 3D airway reconstruction. The adenoid thickness (A) and nasopharyngeal cavity width (N) were measured in the sagittal plane, while the S was measured in the coronal plane. The factors that had a significant impact on S's size was analyzed using linear regression. Results: S and age, A, N, height, weight, BMI, allergic rhinitis, deviated nasal septum, and enlarged turbinate hypertrophy did not differ significantly (P > .05). However, there was a significant linear relationship between A/N and chronic sinusitis (R2 = 0.948, P < .01). Regression equation: S = -4.115 × A/N × 100-5.037 × 1/0 (with chronic sinusitis/without chronic sinusitis) +418. 097. The calculated S in individuals with A/N = 70% and no chronic sinusitis was 130 mm2. Conclusion: The S can be used as an important imaging index for diagnosing and evaluating the severity of AH in minors. When a child exhibits clinical signs of AH but A/N ≤ 70%, it is difficult to determine whether surgical intervention is necessary. At this time, CBCT is required to measure the nasopharyngeal cavity's size. When S ≤ 130 mm2, the patient should actively undertake surgical treatment.
RESUMO
This retrospective study aimed to investigate clinical diagnostic and management characteristics of double thyroglossal duct cyst (TDC) cases. Seventy-eight patients diagnosed with TDCs who were admitted to the inpatient ward of the Department of Otolaryngology, Dalian Central Municipal Hospital from June 2008 to October 2021 were included in the study. Ultimately, 67 of these patients were diagnosed with single TDCs and 11 patients with double TDCs. Each patient underwent computed tomography and color doppler ultrasound imaging of their neck masses, thyroid color doppler ultrasound imaging, and surgical cyst removal through the classic Sistrunk procedure. All surgically excised specimens were sent to the pathology lab for examination and were confirmed to contain TDCs. Two of the 67 patients with single TDCs experienced postoperative complications related to infections within the operative area, whereas no patients with double TDCs experienced postoperative infection, excessive bleeding, or other surgical complications. All cases were followed up for 1 to 3 years after surgery with no cyst recurrence observed. Double TDCs may present on physical examination as unilateral neck masses that interfere with tongue extension and movement and swallowing that can be identified using imaging methods. Correct clinical diagnosis and complete surgical removal of cysts are key measures for ensuring successful treatment outcomes for patients with TDCs.

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to investigate the clinical diagnosis and treatment characteristics of primary laryngeal neuroendocrine carcinoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed for the data of 6 patients with primary laryngeal neuroendocrine carcinoma admitted to the Department of Otorhinolaryngology of Dalian Central Hospital from September 2015 to January 2022, all of whom were male patients. And laryngoscopy showed that 4 had a similar appearance to hemangioma, 1 had nodular hyperplasia, and 1 was papilloma-like. The site of onset was located on the laryngeal surface of the epiglottis in 3 cases, situated in the aryepiglottic fold in 2 cases, and the posterior ventricular zone in 1 case. Five patients underwent surgery, including 4 by transoral endoscopic cryogenic plasma radiofrequency mass resection; one underwent a cervical lymph node dissection and supraglottic horizontal hemilaryngectomy. The remaining 1 case was treated in another hospital after the pathological diagnosis was confirmed by biopsy. All patients had no cervical lymph node metastases and were not supplemented with chemoradiotherapy. RESULTS: The postoperative pathological diagnosis of all 5 patients was neuroendocrine carcinoma. No cancer cells were seen at the margins and base. One patient was lost to follow-up after treatment in another hospitals and the rest were followed up for 6 months to 6 years. One patient had removed laryngeal tumor and epiglottis by a low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation, recurrence 1 year after surgery, and no recurrence for 5 years after supraglottic horizontal hemilaryngectomy combined with prophylactic cervical lymph node dissection, no recurrence for the other 4 patients after 6 months to 4 years of follow-up. CONCLUSION: The common sites of laryngeal neuroendocrine carcinoma are the laryngeal surface of the epiglottis and the aryepiglottic fold. The appearance of the tumor is mainly similar to that of hemangioma. Moreover, a common pathological classification is atypical carcinoid tumors, where early detection and surgical treatment can achieve a good therapeutic effect.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the result of child-type micro-sensitive mattress sleep monitor on obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome in children. METHOD: The PSG and child-type micro-sensitive mattress sleep monitor were synchronously performed on 58 cases of children with OSAHS. The breathing and sleep metrics were compared. RESULT: By PSG monitoring, 41 cases were diagnosed as mild OSAHS, 14 cases were moderate and 3 cases were severe. The results of mattress system monitoring showed mild OSAHS in 37 cases, 16 cases of moderate and severe OSAHS in 5 cases. Seven patients diagnosed as mild OSAHS monitored by PSG were classified as moderate by mattress system monitoring; three cases diagnosed as mild OSAHS by mattress system monitoring system were diagnosed as moderate by PSG. Among 14 cases of children diagnosed as moderate by PSG, three cases were diagnosed as mild by mattress system monitor and two cases as severe. Children diagnosed as severe by PSG got the same result by mattress system monitor. Two kinds of sleep monitoring methods were compared and there were no statistically significant difference in AHI (t = 2.316, P > 0.05), deep and shallow sleep constituent ratio (t = 2.280, t = 2.388, PF > 0.05). while there was significant difference in REM period Sleep constituent ratio (t = 3.135, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Child-type micro-sensitive mattress is in good agreement with the PSG for diagnosing OSAHS in children, which can be used as a monitoring method in clinical work.
