Learning beyond the lab: A gamified approach to anatomy education in a museum‐based experience

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy education, traditionally rooted in descriptive instruction and cadaveric dissection, is undergoing a significant transformation through the integration of educational technologies and contemporary pedagogical strategies. Among these, active learning methodologies, such as gamified‐based learning, have emerged as approaches designed to ...

Anatomy of the Soft Palate and Its Role in Upper Airway Function: A Narrative Review

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The soft palate is a complex anatomical structure, located at the posterior aspect of the oral and nasal cavities, able to dynamically create valve closure of the nasal and the oral cavities. Its precise movement is critical for speech, swallowing, and respiration. Despite its functional importance, detailed characterization of its constituent

Is identification and dissection of the external laryngeal nerve necessary during thyroidectomy? A prospective study

open access: yesBMC Surgery
Background Compared to the recurrent laryngeal nerve, the EBSLN (or external laryngeal nerve) is less studied in terms of its course and relationship with the thyroid gland.

Effect of Electromyography Findings of Traction‐Related Signal Loss on Prognosis During Neuromonitored Thyroidectomy

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) is a reliable tool to detect electromyographic loss of signal (LOS). Here, we investigated the effect of electromyography features of traction‐related LOS on prognosis. Methods Thyroidectomy patients with a traction‐related LOS were included.

Assessment of different classification systems for predicting the risk of superior laryngeal nerve injury during thyroid surgery: a prospective cohort study

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundA multitude of anatomical variations have been noted in the external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN). In this study, intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) was used to assess the potential value of the different classical EBSLN ...

Predictors of external branch of superior laryngeal nerve paresis and paralysis in patients undergoing thyroidectomy: by videostroboscopy

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology
Background Thyroidectomy is one of the most commonly done surgery in otorhinolaryngology; hence, a pre-operative analysis of the recurrent laryngeal nerve and superior laryngeal nerve functions of laryngeal musculature is very important.

Neurological complications in thyroid surgery: a surgical point of view on laryngeal nerves.

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2014
The cervical branches of the vagus nerve that are pertinent to endocrine surgery are the superior and the inferior laryngeal nerves: their anatomical course in the neck places them at risk during thyroid surgery.

The Subhyoid Approach for Base of Tongue Tumors: Description of A Novel Surgical Technique

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The sub‐hyoid approach is a novel open surgical technique for selected deeply infiltrative base of tongue tumors, providing direct access and allowing full‐thickness resection while preserving the tongue neurovascular structures. Thyro‐hyoido‐pexy restores hyo‐laryngeal suspension without flap reconstruction, with the aim of preserving swallowing ...
