Thyroid Cartilage Reconstruction With Titanium Mesh in Advanced Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
We report the first case of titanium mesh reconstruction of the thyroid cartilage following resection of papillary thyroid carcinoma with preservation of the laryngeal mucosa. This technique provided excellent functional outcomes while maintaining oncologic resection in a patient with locally advanced disease.

Effects of Intubation Duration on Trachea: A Histopathological Study
This study evaluated the histopathological effects of prolonged endotracheal intubation on the human trachea using biopsy specimens obtained during tracheotomy. Prolonged intubation was associated with progressive inflammatory and structural changes, with tracheal dilatation and perichondritis increasing significantly after 14 days.
