As a consequence of the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2, the clinical practice of otolaryngologists underwent profound transformations. Non-aerosol-generating procedures have been researched and implemented. Transcutaneous laryngeal ultrasonography (TLUSG) provides a rapid and noninvasive method to assess laryngeal function and can support the management of laryngeal disorders. With the aim of investigating the clinical usefulness of TLUSG in otolaryngology practice, a review of the literature published on PubMed, Cochrane Library and Ovid/ Medline databases was performed up to March 2022. 38 studies were eligible to be included in the review. The selected papers were divided into six topics of interest: evaluation of vocal cords function, diagnosis of laryngeal disorders in infants and children, evaluation of swallowing disorders, assessment of laryngeal cancer and other laryngeal lesions, ultrasound-guided cricothyroidotomy, ultrasound-guided laryngeal electromyography. The results of this review demonstrated that TLUSG, applied to ENT practice, can be a valid method for dynamic laryngeal assessment and airway management, since it is time-efficient, non invasive, well tolerated and easily performed.
