Abstract

Objective: To evaluate outcomes of the surgical and rehabilitative procedures devoted to release the tongue-tie in non-infants when implementing the most commonly used quantitative/qualitative structured tools for tongue and frenulum assessment.

Methods: A scoping review and meta-analysis were conducted following the guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis extension for scoping reviews.

Results: The systematic search retrieved 603 (Pubmed), 893 (Scopus), and 739 (ISI Web of Science) articles from January 2011 to December 2021. A total of 50 articles were retrieved for full-text review of which 7 were selected and included based on inclusion criteria. The majority of treatment options have been found to significantly improve the anatomical limitation of the tongue with clear benefits on descending functionality.

Conclusions: The review highlights an overall improvement in terms of clinical and functional outcomes when using validated tongue assessment tools both before and after frenulum release. This highlights the need for their rigorous implementation in research and clinical practice.

通过舌系带和舌系带评估工具释放舌系带的结果:对非婴儿的范围审查。

目的:评价采用最常用的舌系带定量/定性结构化工具进行舌系带评估时，用于非婴儿舌系带解除的手术和康复程序的结果。方法:根据系统评价首选报告项目和范围评价扩展元分析的指导方针进行范围评价和荟萃分析。结果:从2011年1月到2021年12月，系统检索了603篇(Pubmed)， 893篇(Scopus)和739篇(ISI Web of Science)文章。共检索到50篇文章进行全文审查，其中7篇根据纳入标准入选。大多数治疗方案已被发现显著改善舌的解剖局限性，对下降功能有明显的好处。结论:该综述强调了在系带释放前后使用经过验证的舌评估工具在临床和功能结果方面的总体改善。这突出了在研究和临床实践中严格实施它们的必要性。

期刊介绍： Acta Otorhinolaryngologica Italica first appeared as “Annali di Laringologia Otologia e Faringologia” and was founded in 1901 by Giulio Masini. It is the official publication of the Italian Hospital Otology Association (A.O.O.I.) and, since 1976, also of the Società Italiana di Otorinolaringoiatria e Chirurgia Cervico-Facciale (S.I.O.Ch.C.-F.). The journal publishes original articles (clinical trials, cohort studies, case-control studies, cross-sectional surveys, and diagnostic test assessments) of interest in the field of otorhinolaryngology as well as clinical techniques and technology (a short report of unique or original methods for surgical techniques, medical management or new devices or technology), editorials (including editorial guests – special contribution) and letters to the Editor-in-Chief. Articles concerning science investigations and well prepared systematic reviews (including meta-analyses) on themes related to basic science, clinical otorhinolaryngology and head and neck surgery have high priority.
