The authors report a multi-institutional validation study of the Interarytenoid Assessment Protocol designed to standardize the evaluation of interarytenoid mucosal height in pediatric patients suspected of having laryngeal clefts.
Embolized Middle Meningeal Artery as a Surgical Landmark in Infratemporal Fossa
The authors successfully removed a giant cell tumor in the infratemporal fossa using an infratemporal fossa approach after selectively embolizing the MMA during transfemoral carotid angiography. The embolized MMA served as a surgical landmark, helping to confirm the tumor’s posterior boundary and minimizing bleeding during surgery.
Lord of the (Magnetic) Rings: Rigid Bronchoscopy for Aspirated Magnetic Foreign Bodies in Tertiary Bronchi
This study aimed to describe operative techniques using rigid bronchoscopy and ferromagnetic bronchoscopic equipment to retrieve magnetic foreign bodies in distal tertiary bronchi beyond the reach of traditional optical instrumentation.
Secondary Contouring for the Butterfly Graft: Improving Form and Preserving Function
The butterfly graft (BFG) is a surgical technique used to treat nasal airway obstruction by reconstructing the internal nasal valve, but it can lead to external nasal contour irregularities. This study evaluates a secondary contouring procedure designed to address these irregularities while preserving nasal function and improving patient satisfaction.
How To: Superior Maximization of Sphenoidotomy with Olfaction Preservation in Endoscopic Endonasal Surgery
In endoscopic endonasal surgery for anterior skull base lesions, maximizing the anterior sphenoidotomy in the superior part is crucial for ensuring direct visualization and creating a wide working corridor. Authors describe a technique they devised that maximizes upper anterior sphenoidotomy while preserving the olfactory mucosa.
How To: Anatomic-Based Technique for Sensing Lead Placement in Hypoglossal Stimulator Implantation
Placement of the sensing lead can be challenging in obese and Down syndrome patients. This article presents an alteration in technique for its placement in these patient populations.
How To: Endolymphatic Duct Blockage and Anatomical Variations Management
This article focuses on the surgical approaches and anatomical variations of the endolymphatic sac during the transmastoid route, which varies with the size of the duct within the petrous bone and its accessibility.
How To: Open Expansion Laryngoplasty for Combined Glottic and Subglottic Stenosis
Expansion laryngoplasty is a new, combined procedure that can treat both glottic and subglottic stenosis simultaneously. This is a small case series showing how to perform this surgery, as well as outcomes from 15 years.
How to: Pediatric Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Skull Base Approach and Closure: Technique and Technical Tips
The authors review their pediatric EESS technique in patients with intra-operative high flow cerebrospinal fluid leak, with a focus on details that differ from adult transsphenoidal surgery technique.
How To: Endoscopic Total Maxillectomy Without Facial Skin Incision
This study presents a pioneering report on an endoscopic-assisted total maxillectomy that allows for en bloc resection without a facial skin incision.
