ATTACKING HEARING LOSS
IN THE LABORATORY
Accumulaion o ree radicals, which can becaused by environmenal sress rom inensenoise, aging, and rauma, plays a key rolein hearing loss and cell deah in he innerear. evin D. Brown, MD, PhD, is rying o

Siruins have been ound o exend lie insome cell ypes and simple organisms,explains Dr. Brown. As research has begun

When Dr. Brownjoined Weill Cornell, he brough wih himadvanced raining in minimally invasivecochlear implan surgery having rained asa ellow a he Universiy o Miami, whichpioneered he procedure. Te aculy heredeermined ha you could successullyimplan he cochlear device wih a muchsmaller incision 4.5 cm behind he ear
and less invasive approaches han hadbeen ypically perormed, says Dr. Brown.Currenly, insead o perorming a specific

well, says Dr. Brown. Te cochlear implansis in a very igh pocke beween he bone
and he pericranium, which is he layer oconnecive issue over he skull, and holdshe device in place. We hen suure he

Tis echnique carries wihi a small bu veriable risk o inracranialcomplicaions, such as a cerebrospinal fluidleak, subdural hemaoma, and epiduralhemaoma, and has also been associaed wihinsances o receiver-simulaor migraion.Migraion can lead o uncomorable ordysuncional ineracion wih he exernalspeech processor and requires revisionsurgery, says Dr. Brown, who specializes inhe surgical rehabiliaion o hearing loss bycochlear implanaion.

When people have cancer, i reallyrequires inpu and inervenion by muliplepraciioners, says Dr. Cohen. Te beshing or he paien is a group o people wihdifferen areas o experise who ogeherdevelop a reamen plan. Te Cuaneous

Dr. uler agrees. I used o be, a leasor skin cancer, ha we would workindependenly. Some o hese skin cancers,especially complicaed umors wihaggressive behaviors ha cross muliple
boundaries, need a mulidisciplinaryapproach, says Dr. uler. Te group allowsus o provide beter care or hese morecomplicaed cuaneous malignancies.
According o Dr. uler, head and necksurgeons become involved in planning andreamen when he cancer is more invasive,reaching ino deeper srucures where heeye, nose, or skull base is involved, or ihe cancer measasizes o he neck. Wihdeeper melanomas, we will also be called ino do seninel node biopsies o deermine heexen o he cancer, says Dr. uler. Youreally need a eam o care or paiens wihinvasive skin cancers.
Trough he Cuaneous Oncology Group,paiens receive seamless care wihin hesame aciliy on he same day. For example,Dr. Johnson will perorm Mohs surgery oremove a cancerous growh and, dependingon he exen o issue removed, she will reer

A Paradoxical Laryngeal DisorderRooted in a Disorder of Breathing
When Tomas Murry, PhD, speaks, people
lisen. An inernaionally recognizedvoice scienis and speech-language paholo-gis wih more han 40 years o clinical andresearch experise in voice disorders, Dr. Murryhas auhored or coauhored 12 books orspeech pahologiss and oolaryngologiss.
For more han a decade, Dr. Murry has hada paricular ineres in paradoxical vocal oldmoion (PVFM) a laryngeal disorder hadisrups breahing even hough he lungs may
be normal. Paradoxical vocal old moion
disorder is an abnormal closing o he airway
wih he vocal olds when somebody inhales,explains Dr. Murry. When we ake a breahin, our vocal olds are supposed o be wideopen. Bu when paiens who have PVFMake a breah in, heir vocal olds sar o close.Te paradox is ha he vocal olds are closing
when hey should say open.
Dr. Murry, who sees abou 50 people a year,primary ages 12 o 25, wih his unusual condi-ion, noes ha i ofen begins afer an upperrespiraory inecion and can develop ino asignifican qualiy o lie issue, causing shor-ness o breah and difficuly breahing uponexerion, including during speaking.

Jewish Hospial in Denver published a paperha repored on paiens who were reracoryo ashma reamen and insead had a voicedisorder. Pulmonologiss reerred o i as vocalcord dysuncion; EN specialiss gave i he
name paradoxical vocal old moion disorder.PVFM is diagnosed wih laryngeal endoscopy.We look a he vocal olds wih a flexibleendoscope, which allows us o acually seehis closing moion, says Dr. Murry. In anaricle published in he December 2011 issueoRespiraory Medicine, Dr. Murry and hiscolleagues repor on a sudy hey underookusing boh endoscopy and spiromery duringperiods o no exercise o deermine he differ-ences beween paiens wih PVFM comparedo a group o normal subjecs one o he firssudies o is kind. Te daa confirmed ha inpaiens wih PVFM, inspiraory spiromeric
values play a role in diagnosis. Addiionally,he majoriy o he PVFM subjecs showed

Clinical Innovation:A New Tool to Test for Allergies
he work o William R. Reisacher, MD,
is nohing o sneeze a. Dr. Reisacheris developing a diagnosic sraegy or non-allergic rhiniis in which individuals appearo have classic allergic sympoms bu whoseskin and blood ess are negaive. Te causeo he sympoms remains unclear, saysDr. Reisacher. Whas been known or many
years is ha he lining o he nose, and someo he oher issues inside he mouh and he
hroa, are able o produce all o he allergyanibodies ha hey need righ in ha area.Many people will have hose anibodies ina local environmen, such as in he nasalcaviy, bu heyre no going o have anyevidence or i in he blood or in he skin.Local anibodies have been ound o play arole no only in non-allergic rhiniis, bu inmany oher condiions, such as nasal polyps,
allergic ungal sinusiis, and chronic rhino-sinusiis. Tese paiens look like hey haveallergies, bu some esimaes sugges ha45 o 50 percen o hose paiens who esnegaive will have allergy anibodies in heirnose, noes Dr. Reisacher. So he abiliy oes or hese anigen-specific anibodies is oprimary imporance no only or esablishinghe correc diagnosis, bu also o open up
oher avenues o reamen.
o dae, esing or local anibodies hasinvolved invasive and difficul procedures.Te hrus o Dr. Reisachers research waso find a less invasive way o esing or localanibodies. I used wha I call a mucosal

York City, is committed to excellence in research, teaching, patient care, and the
advancement of the art and science of medicine, locally, nationally, and globally.
Physicians and scientists of Weill Cornell Medical College are engaged in cutting-edge research
from bench to bedside, aimed at unlocking mysteries of the human body in health and sickness
and toward developing new treatments and prevention strategies. In its commitment to global
health and education, Weill Cornell has a strong presence in places such as Qatar, Tanzania,

the Medical College is the first in the U.S. to offer its MD degree overseas. Weill Cornell is the
birthplace of many medical advances including the development of the Pap test for cervical
cancer, the synthesis of penicillin, the first successful embryo-biopsy pregnancy and birth in the
U.S., the first clinical trial of gene therapy for Parkinsons disease, and, most recently, the worlds
first successful use of deep brain stimulation to treat a minimally conscious, brain-injured
patient. Weill Cornell Medical College is affiliated with NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, where
its faculty provides comprehensive patient care at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell
Medical Center. The Medical College is also affiliated with The Methodist Hospital in Houston,
