We aim to provide a collection of the most clinically useful papers in Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery for quick review and reference. We designate many as landmark articles (based on our criteria*), in addition to the systematic reviews, clinical trials, best practices, and other high yield research we include. This list is a great resource for residents to read relevant literature and gain knowledge on the most influential studies done in ENT. This is an ever growing list so please feel free to contact us if additional papers should make this list.

                    *These are the landmark papers in Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery that are most useful for clinical practice. On OtoNotes, we determine if a paper is a Landmark Paper based on several conditions. To be considered a Landmark Paper, the article must have clinical significance and relevance. We do not include any basic science papers in this list. Papers should have more than 100 citations or an average of 50 citations per decade. We tried to limit all papers to after the year 1980 to maintain relevancy to today’s clinical practice. This is a growing list but please contact us if there are any articles you think should be on this list.
