[OBJECTIVE] Robotics-assisted retinal microsurgery provides several benefits including improvement of manipulation precision. The assistance provided to the surgeons by current robotic frameworks is, however, a "passive" support, e.g., by d…

Flow-replacement revascularization and/or flow augmentation surgery may be necessary for safe deconstruction of complex middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms. Roughly 1% to 2% of all MCA aneurysms have angiographic features prohibiting sta…

World Health Organization (WHO) grade I meningiomas are intracranial extracerebral tumors, in which microsurgery as a stand-alone therapy provides high rates of disease control and low recurrence rates. Our aim was to identify prognostic fa…

[OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS] To evaluate the "July effect," as a possible risk factor for perioperative complications in otolaryngology microvascular reconstruction during the transitional period in the academic calendar. [STUDY DESIGN] Retrosp…

This study evaluated the accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) for preoperative staging of rectal cancer and guiding the treatment of transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) in early rectal cancer. One-hundred-twenty-six patients with rec…

[BACKGROUND] A hybrid operating room (hybrid-OR) is a surgical space that combines a conventional operating room with advanced medical imaging devices. [AIM] To explore and summarize the technical features and effectiveness of the applicat…

The light-driven micro/nanomotor (LMNM) is machinery that harvests photon energy and generates self-propulsion in varieties of liquid media. Though visions are made that these tiny swimming machines can serve future medicine for accurate dr…

Focusing light inside live tissue by digital optical phase conjugation (DOPC) has been intensively investigated due to its potential biomedical applications in deep-tissue imaging, optogenetics, microsurgery, and phototherapy. However, fast…

Laser microsurgery is a powerful tool for neurobiology, used to ablate cells and sever neurites in-vivo. We compare a relatively new laser source to two well-established designs. Rare-earth-doped mode-locked fibre lasers that produce high p…

Background Full-endoscopic spinal surgery is an evolving technique. A laborious learning phase is inevitable due to the complexity of the orientation and instrumentation. The goal of the present study is to evaluate a single surgeon's learn…

[BACKGROUND] This study was performed to examine the efficacy of endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery (ETS) for Cushing's disease at a single institute and to review past reports. [MATERIAL AND METHODS] We studied eight consecutive patients …

[BACKGROUND] There is a trend toward organ conservation in the management of rectal tumors. However, there is no consensus on standardized investigations to guide treatment. [OBJECTIVE] We report the value of multimodal endoscopic assessme…

The Mexican salamander, Ambystoma mexicanum (Axolotl), is an excellent vertebrate model system to understand development and regeneration. Studies in axolotl embryos have provided important insights into taste bud development. Taste bud spe…

[BACKGROUND] Advances in microsurgery have improved the survival rate of arm replantation. However, the functional outcome of the replanted arms remains unpredictable. The authors performed a systematic review to evaluate the long-term outc…

[OBJECTIVE] To evaluate the value of an adjuvant cisternostomy (AC) to decompressive craniectomy (DC) for the management of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI). [METHODS] A single-center retrospective quality control analysi…

[OBJECTIVE] Postoperative amnesia after surgery for anterior communicating artery aneurysm might be associated with the damage of the basal forebrain. Our purpose was to verify whether decreased regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in basal …

[OBJECTIVE] Surgical management of the unknown primary head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (UP HNSCC) remains controversial due to challenging clinical diagnosis. This study compares positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-C…

[MATERIALS AND METHODS] The records of patients treated with TLM with previously untreated early stage glottic squamous cell carcinoma were reviewed. [RESULTS] A total of 201 patients were enrolled: 191 men (95.0%) and 10 women (4.98%). Th…

[INTRODUCTION] The purpose of this retrospective study was to determine the clinical and radiographic outcomes of root-end microsurgery in a postgraduate program in endodontics using modern techniques and calcium silicate-based root-end fil…

[PURPOSE] Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) has the potential to improve some inherent disadvantages of transoral laser microsurgery (TLM). Here, we retrospectively assessed the application of the Medrobotics Flex system for the resection of…
