Transoral Chondrolaryngoplasty: Scarless Reduction of the Adam’s Apple

OTO Open, 2020
The purpose of our study is to test the feasibility of transoral thyroid chondrolaryngoplasty using a similar approach to transoral thyroidectomy. This approach would allow for gender-affirming surgery while avoiding an external neck scar. We carried out

Nerve Branch Diameter as an Indicator of Motor Function in Extralaryngeal Branches of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve During Thyroidectomy

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 10, Issue 6, December 2025.
In cases where a clear disparity in diameter exists, the thicker branch may be considered more likely to have motor function. Additionally, when the branches have similar diameters or are located close to the LEP or near the ITA, the anteromedial branch is more likely to contain motor fibers. ABSTRACT Objective Preserving the recurrent laryngeal nerve (

Transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy using vestibular approach: updates and evidences [PDF]

Gland Surgery, 2017
Recently, natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) has been applied in thyroid surgery with transoral access. The benefit of transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy is the potential for scar-free surgery. However, there are many concerns over some aspects, such as infection, recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, and oncological outcome.

Ultrasonic Vocalization Acoustics After Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injury and Recovery

The Laryngoscope, Volume 135, Issue 7, Page 2445-2453, July 2025.
Reliable and functional biomarkers in animal models of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury are needed to ensure translation of treatments from the laboratory to the clinic. This study aimed to investigate the impact of RLN injury on rodent ultrasonic vocalization (USV) acoustics in both acute and chronic stages of injury.

Identifying and Preserving Parathyroid Glands During Thyroid Surgery Using Indocyanine Green and a Review of the Literature

Cancer Reports, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Background The research aims to investigate the potential use of near‐infrared fluorescence imaging with Indocyanine green (ICG) to detect the parathyroid glands (PGs) during surgery and to evaluate their blood supply. Additionally, a review of existing literature was performed to evaluate the utility of near‐infrared imaging with ICG in ...
