Purpose: The precise location of the endolymphatic sac (ES) may be difficult during surgical approaches. This morphometric study aimed to determine the exact location of ES in adult human cadavers for the management of pathologies such as Meniere's disease.

Methods: Twenty temporal bones of 10 adult cadavers (mean age: 70 ± 13.

Purpose: This cadaveric anatomical study aimed to explore precise morphometric measurements of the eustachian tube (ET) and adjacent structures in the middle cranial fossa, focusing on identifying reliable surgical landmarks when traditional markers are compromised due to tumors or trauma.

Methods: Twenty-two temporal bones from 11 adult cadavers (mean age: 75.70 ± 13.

Article Synopsis
  • Tongue abscess (TA) is a rare but serious condition that requires prompt treatment, primarily through surgical drainage.
  • This study reviews the clinical and lab findings of 11 patients with TA, highlighting their demographics and the locations of the abscesses.
  • The research underscores the urgent need for interventions, such as tracheotomy, due to the risk of airway obstruction, and notes challenges in treating abscesses found in unexpected areas.

Objective: To analyze the demographic characteristics and the pathological results of neck dissection in primary parotid gland (PG) cancer patients, and to investigate the effects of histopathological parameters (perineural invasion, lymphovascular invasion, and extracapsular spread), neck metastasis, stage and lymph node ratio (LNR) on survival.

Methods: Patients who underwent parotidectomy for malignant PG tumors between 2000 and 2019 years were retrospectively reviewed from the medical records. Thirty patients who were treated with parotidectomy and neck dissection were included in the study.
