Article Abstract
Information on inflammatory laryngeal masses in dogs remains extremely limited. We aimed to describe the clinical and histopathological features and outcomes of five dogs with bilateral, movable inflammatory laryngeal masses. Stridor was a common clinical sign, followed by dysphonia and snoring, all of which were mild. The presence of movable masses was confirmed in all dogs through fluoroscopic or echolaryngographic evaluation. Laryngeal endoscopy identified two masses in each dog, consistent with everted laryngeal saccules. Surgical excision was performed in all dogs, and no recurrence was observed during a median follow-up of 13 months. Histopathological analysis revealed chronic laryngitis characterized by fibrosis, lymphoplasmacytic infiltration, edema, and lymphangiectasia, consistent with findings reported in laryngeal saccules associated with brachycephalic airway syndrome in dogs.

Chronic cough is a common clinical challenge and a leading cause of outpatient visits to respiratory clinics. In primary care settings, limited diagnostic resources and the absence of standardized evaluation protocols often result in misdiagnosis and suboptimal management. The present report presents the case of a 30-year-old woman with a >1-year history of persistent, non-productive cough unresponsive to initial anti-inflammatory and antitussive therapies.

Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH, Forestier's disease) is a rare non-inflammatory degenerative-dystrophic disease of the musculoskeletal system, characterized by calcification of ligaments and tendons, in particular the anterior longitudinal ligament. It is rare, more often among men over 60 years old. When the cervical spine is affected, DISH manifests itself as neck pain, stiffness of movement, dysphagia and, in some cases, difficulty breathing.

Objective: To evaluate the prognostic significance of preoperative inflammatory markers including platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and albumin-to-globulin ratio (AGR) in patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) undergoing total laryngectomy (TL).
Methods: Patients were stratified by preoperative inflammatory markers: NLR > 3, PLR > 109.54, and AGR < 1.

Objective: To investigate differences between the structural aspects and laryngeal functionality before and after a vocal loading activity and their association with symptoms of vocal fatigue (VF).
Methods: Young adults without vocal complaints and who use professional or nonprofessional voices participated in the research. Videolaryngostroboscopy (VLS) exams were performed before and after a vocal loading activity to which the participants were submitted, characterized by reading texts at high vocal intensity lasting 90 minutes.
