Detection of PTEN Mutations in Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsies of Indeterminate Thyroid Nodules: Impact on Diagnosis and Prognosis

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Data connecting PTEN mutations with thyroid cancer risk for indeterminate nodules remain limited due to the rare nature of these mutations. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between PTEN mutations identified in cytologically indeterminate nodules and final pathology and clinical outcomes.

A CT-guided Control Framework of a Robotic Flexible Endoscope for the Diagnosis of the Maxillary Sinusitis [PDF]

arXiv
Flexible endoscopes are commonly adopted in narrow and confined anatomical cavities due to their higher reachability and dexterity. However, prolonged and unintuitive manipulation of these endoscopes leads to an increased workload on surgeons and risks of collision.

BrightVAE: Luminosity Enhancement in Underexposed Endoscopic Images [PDF]

arXiv
The enhancement of image luminosity is especially critical in endoscopic images. Underexposed endoscopic images often suffer from reduced contrast and uneven brightness, significantly impacting diagnostic accuracy and treatment planning. Internal body imaging is challenging due to uneven lighting and shadowy regions.

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 ...

HPV‐Positive Squamous Cell Carcinoma Metastasis Without Clinical Evidence of Primary: The Posterior Oropharyngeal Wall May Be an Overlooked Location

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) can present as cancer of unknown primary, where only cervical lymph node metastases are identified. Most tumors, particularly human‐papillomavirus‐associated ones, are located in the palatine/lingual tonsils.

First Case of Lateral Oropharyngectomy Performed Using the Vitom Eagle: A Novel Exoscopic System for Transoral Surgery

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The Vitom Eagle is a novel exoscopic system, specifically designed for transoral surgery (e.g., lateral oropharyngectomy). No prior study has compared it to existing surgical systems. Methods This case report examines a patient affected by HPV‐related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma treated with transoral lateral ...
