Between 2022 and 2026, Otolaryngology and Dermatology showed similar specialty growth, but very different applicant trends. Otolaryngology: +11.6% positions, +3.8% applicants Dermatology: +11.0% positions, +29.6% applicants #Match2026 #Otomatch #NRMP

Following the drop in overall ENT match rates, U.S. MD senior match rates also declined across several competitive specialties in 2026. ENT: 78.5% → 75.5% (−3.0 pp) Broad declines seen in Derm, GS, PRS, Ortho Increases in Thoracic and Vascular Surgery #Match2026 #otomatch

New 2026 NRMP data show a tougher year for ENT applicants overall. Overall match rate fell from 71.2% to 67.4%, with declines for both U.S. MD and U.S. DO applicants. Meanwhile, IMG match rate increased substantially from 21.2% to 37.1%. #Match2026 #NRMP #otomatch

Preference signaling has become one of the biggest drivers of interview distribution in ENT. Below is the current signaling structure and how it shaped interview distribution in 2025. Will be interesting to see how the #2026Match data compare. #ENT #Otolaryngology #Otomatch

Leading up to the ENT #2026Match, let’s take a look at recent NRMP otolaryngology data and the current program landscape. #Otolaryngology #MedEd #NRMP

New pub from @MizzouENT authors: What affects time to diagnosis in head-and-neck #lymphoma? Key findings from 137 patients: ✅ FNA doesn't delay diagnosis 📊 Prior lymphoma hx = faster dx ⚠️ Older age = longer delays pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41179101/ @TassoneHNS @carsonkgates @ericydu

Latest publication from @MizzouENT authors, describing coverage for #speech #therapy. While the maps look promising, the devil is in the details. Some roadblocks include co pays, capped number of any type of therapy sessions. What do you think? onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdfdirect/…
