[BACKGROUND] Transoral laser microsurgery for glottic squamous cell carcinoma is the standard of care at many institutions. Repeat transoral laser microsurgery for recurrence may avoid the need for radiotherapy and total laryngectomy. This …

Mechanical stages are routinely used to scan large expanses of biological specimens in photoacoustic imaging. This is primarily due to the limited field of view (FOV) provided by optical scanning. However, stage scanning becomes impractical…

[BACKGROUND] Microsurgical anastomosis is a technically demanding skill. The most difficult part of the learning process was in achieving the necessary orientation and dexterity. In this project, we adopted computer-aided design and desktop…

Advancements in reconstructive microsurgery have evolved into supermicrosurgery; connecting vessels with diameter between 0.3 and 0.8 mm for reconstruction of lymphatic flow and vascularized tissue transplantation. Supermicrosurgery is limi…

Intracranial meningiomas account for 30 to 40 % of the primary lesions of the central nervous system. In most of the cases, the diagnosis of an intracranial meningioma requires a neurosurgical management, in a multi-disciplinary perspective…

[BACKGROUND] Infants with more severe brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI) benefit from primary nerve surgery to improve function. The timing of the surgery, however, is controversial. The Treatment and Outcomes of Brachial Plexus Injury (TO…

Retinal microsurgery is one of the most technically demanding surgeries, during which the surgical tool needs to be inserted into the eyeball and is constantly constrained by the sclerotomy port. During the surgery, any unexpected manipulat…

[BACKGROUND] Transoral laser microsurgery has been suggested as an alternative treatment modality for hypopharyngeal carcinoma. The purpose of this study is to systematically review the oncologic and functional outcomes of patients with hyp…

[BACKGROUND] There is a lack of large-scale data that examine complications in plastic surgery. A description of baseline rates and patient outcomes allows better understanding of ways to improve patient care and cost-savings for health sys…

[RATIONALE] Primary hypothyroidism is characterized by loss of thyroxine feedback inhibition and overproduction of thyrotropin-releasing hormone, which might result in reactive pituitary hyperplasia. However, pituitary adenoma secondary to …

[AIMS] To evaluate predictive factors for local control, larynx preservation and overall survival in patients with early laryngeal cancer, who were treated with endoscopic transoral CO2 laser microsurgery. [BACKGROUND] Transoral laser micr…
