    Subglottic stenosis is caused by inflammation which results in scar tissue. Trauma is the most common cause. However, a distinct group of patients who have isolated inflammation of the subglottis have no known cause.
    A) Concentric subglottic ulceration
    B) Hard subglottic stenosis

    Over the past 35 years since I started training in ENT–head neck surgery the management of oropharyngeal cancer has changed significantly. This has prompted me to write a 2 part blog. www.richardgallagher.com.au/2tcu www.richardgallagher.com.au/y3po #oropharyngeal cancer #TORS

    The larynx, or voicebox, consists of the supraglottis, glottis, and subglottis. The subglottis, encircled by cartilage, leads into the trachea and is the narrowest airway part, measuring 12-20 mm in adults. A reduced diameter, called subglottic stenosis, can obstruct the airway.

    The Head and Neck Cancer Australia Gala Dinner this past Saturday was very enjoyable and a worthwhile cause. Head and Neck Cancer Australia plays a crucial role by offering resources and support for those affected. Thank you to GenesisCare for the invitation. #HeadandNeckCancer #ENT

    Second opinions are sometimes sought, understandably, by patients facing complex treatment, especially when a timely decision is required. To facilitate this I have developed a 2nd opinion service via my website buff.ly/t9K79QP #Healthcare #SecondOpinion #ENT #Necklumps

    As an ENT-Head&Neck Surgeon occasionally something unusual comes through the door or in someone’s ear canal. Like this mosquito lying against the eardrum.

    Just seen another patient 5 years post Transoral Robotic Surgery (TORS) and neck dissections for an HPV associated oropharyngeal cancer. Fortunately, did not require extra treatment with radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Working, swallowing and cured. See our results @ doi: 10.1007/s11701-024-01910-0.

    The da Vinci Single Port (SP) robotic platform will soon be available for TORS in Australia. I've just completed my training in Strasbourg, France. The smaller flexible instruments and 3-D camera will take minimally invasive surgery for tumours of the throat to a new level.

    Many of our patients have expressed interest, sometimes bordering on surprise, at the new artworks hanging in our clinic. In particular our "Boomerang" series by Keemon Williams. You can learn more about Keemon here:
