Total cervical occlusion: A solution after cervico‐isthmic cerclage failure
Abstract Objective Spontaneous preterm birth is mainly caused by cervical incompetence. Cervical cerclage is the gold standard for preventing mid‐trimester losses and preterm deliveries. If cervical cerclage fails, cervico‐isthmic cerclage may be indicated.

Transcutaneous pleural biopsy with a retrograde forceps: a novel approach
PURPOSE: Pleural biopsies are commonly performed to investigate the cause of exudative pleural effusion. Biopsy needles (e.g. Abrams needle, Cope needle) are traditionally used to perform the biopsy.

Graphical summary of the study design, intervention, and outcomes. ABSTRACT Background Patients with biliary tract cancer (BTC) often have actionable mutations, and comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) plays an important role. However, the feasibility of CGP using transpapillary biopsy (TPB) samples remains unclear.

Peptic ulcer disease: Insights and risk factors
Abstract Objectives Peptic ulcer disease (PUD), affects adults and children, with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection being the most frequent cause. Diagnosis requires an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGE) and invasive tests. However, besides H. pylori, risk factors for PUD in children remain unclear.

Transoral Robotic Resection of Pediatric Tongue Base Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma
Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) offers a precise, minimally invasive approach for the management of rare pediatric tongue base malignancies. Intraoperative visualization demonstrates accurate tumor delineation and controlled resection, while postoperative findings confirm effective oncologic clearance with preservation of surrounding structures.

How I Do It: Two Novel, Low‐Cost Phonomicrosurgery Models With Open‐Source, 3D‐Printed Laryngoscopes
Two new vocal fold microflap models using products found in any grocery store have been developed along with publicly available 3D‐printable parts for simulating multiple laryngoscopes commonly used during laryngeal phonomicrosurgery. This represents a low cost, easily reproducible model for basic laryngeal phonomicrosurgery training.
