PGY-4 residents Daniel Morrison, MD and Christopher Gentile, MD, Professor Susan McCammon, MD, and Assistant Professor Erin Buczek, MD published "Head and neck oncologic surgery in the "COVID‐19 pandemic: Our experience in a deep south tertiary care center" in Head & Neck Journal of the Sciences and Specialties of the Head and Neck.

The paper outlines the response of the head and neck oncologic surgery (HNS) division within our academic otolaryngology department in the state of Alabama.

"Our HNS division saw a 55% reduction in surgical volume during the peak of the COVID‐19 pandemic. We feel that an early and cohesive strategy to triaging surgical cases, PPE usage, and minimizing exposure of personnel is essential to providing care for HNS patients during this pandemic."
