Bilateral Thyroid Ima Arteries Arising From the Brachiocephalic Trunk: A First Case Report
Head &Neck, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rationale Bilateral thyroid ima artery (TIA) arising from the brachiocephalic trunk is an extremely rare anatomical variation, with no prior cases reported. Recognizing such vascular anomalies is crucial for optimizing surgical outcomes in thyroid and mediastinal procedures, as failure to identify these variations can lead to severe ...

Ultrasonic Vocalization Acoustics After Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injury and Recovery
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Reliable and functional biomarkers in animal models of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury are needed to ensure translation of treatments from the laboratory to the clinic. This study aimed to investigate the impact of RLN injury on rodent ultrasonic vocalization (USV) acoustics in both acute and chronic stages of injury.

Comparison of Endoscopic and Robotic Thyroidectomy
Annals of Surgical Oncology, 2010 Endoscopic thyroidectomy is a technically challenging procedure. Robot-assisted thyroidectomy has been recently introduced and offers improved visualization and dexterity. The present study compared conventional endoscopic and robotic thyroidectomy for thyroid cancer patients in terms of perioperative outcomes and learning curve.

Endoscope‐assisted resection of second branchial cleft fistula via the anterior chest approach
World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.Abstract Objectives Traditional resection of second branchial cleft fistulas (SBCFs) involves a transcervical incision in the neck, which leaves a prominent scar; therefore, endoscope‐assisted excision of SBCFs through the anterior chest approach has been proposed. To introduce endoscope‐assisted excision of SBCFs via the anterior chest approach and to

Ultra-thin rigid endoscope: Two-photon imaging through a graded-index multi-mode fiber [PDF]
, 2015 Rigid endoscopes like graded-index (GRIN) lenses are known tools in biological imaging, but it is conceptually difficult to miniaturize them. In this letter, we demonstrate an ultra-thin rigid endoscope with a diameter of only 125 microns. In addition, we identify a domain where two-photon endoscopic imaging with fs-pulse excitation is possible.

Improving The Diagnosis of Thyroid Cancer by Machine Learning and Clinical Data [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Thyroid cancer is a common endocrine carcinoma that occurs in the thyroid gland. Much effort has been invested in improving its diagnosis, and thyroidectomy remains the primary treatment method. A successful operation without unnecessary side injuries relies on an accurate preoperative diagnosis. Current human assessment of thyroid nodule malignancy is

Clinical Efficacy Analysis of Unilateral Modified Arytenoidectomy for Bilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis
World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose To explore the clinical efficacy of unilateral modified arytenoidectomy (UMA) in the treatment of bilateral vocal fold paralysis(BVFP) based on animal models. Methods The UMA which had been tested in excised canine larynges with simulated BVFP was adapted into a clinical technique. The characteristics of this surgical technique involve
