Laureen Sena is a distinguished otolaryngologist whose research has significantly advanced the understanding and management of complex pediatric airway and vascular anomalies. Her seminal work, "The presentation and management of vascular rings: An otolaryngology perspective," published in 2006 and amassing 98 citations, remains a cornerstone in the field. This paper provided a critical framework for diagnosing and treating vascular rings—congenital malformations that compress the trachea and esophagus—from the unique vantage point of the otolaryngologist. By bridging the gap between cardiothoracic surgery and ENT practice, Sena’s contributions have directly improved surgical planning and patient outcomes for children with these rare but life-threatening conditions. Her research is widely cited by clinicians and surgeons, underscoring its enduring impact on pediatric airway management. Through her meticulous clinical insights, Sena has helped establish otolaryngology as an essential discipline in the multidisciplinary care of vascular rings, influencing both diagnostic protocols and therapeutic strategies. Her work continues to guide trainees and specialists alike, solidifying her reputation as a key figure in pediatric otolaryngology.
