Comparative Use of Double Bipolar Forceps Versus Ultrasound Energy Device in Transoral Robotic Thyroidectomy

Head &Neck, Volume 48, Issue 7, Page 1984-1989, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) offers excellent cosmetic outcomes and safe access to the central neck without a cervical incision. Traditionally, ultrasonic energy devices have been used for dissection and hemostasis, though these instruments are limited by unilateral use, bulkiness, and greater thermal spread.

Preclinical Simulation of Transoral Robotic Thyroidectomy Using a Training Box and the Versius Robotic Platform

OTO Open, Volume 10, Issue 3, July-September 2026.
Abstract Transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) represents an alternative to open surgery, offering favorable cosmetic outcomes and comparable oncologic results. However, standardized training pathways and validated simulation models replicating standardized setups for emerging robotic platforms remain limited.

Incidence and Risk Factors of Postoperative Urinary Retention After Thyroidectomy: A Retrospective Cohort Study

World Journal of Surgery, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 907-913, April 2026.
Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common complication, but its incidence and risk factors after thyroidectomy are not well defined. We investigated the incidence of POUR after thyroidectomy and its risk factors. ABSTRACT Background Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common complication, but its incidence and risk factors after ...

Gasless submental-transoral combined approach endoscopic thyroidectomy: a new surgical technique

Frontiers in Oncology, 2023
BackgroundThe development of transoral endoscopic vestibular approach thyroidectomy (TOETVA) has been limited by inherent defects, such as mental nerve injury and carbon dioxide (CO2)-related complications. Herein, we proposed a new technique without CO2

Failed Awake Flexible Intubation Followed by Early Surgical Tracheostomy in Advanced Laryngeal Cancer: A Case Report

Case Reports in Anesthesiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Primary laryngeal cancers causing critical airway stenosis pose significant challenges to airway management. Although flexible bronchoscope guided awake intubation is generally recommended for anticipated difficult airways, the presence of a friable and obstructive mass may render this technique ineffective. We report the case of a 69‐year‐old male who
