The case presented is of a neonate with extreme respiratory distress immediately after birth, caused by a large laryngeal cyst. The vertical diameter of the cyst was larger than the height of the neonatal larynx. First excision of the cyst was performed in the region of the prominent aryepiglottic fold. Three weeks later, because of a recurrence of dyspnea, excision of the prominent wall of an obstructing cystic lesion was performed in the ventriculus Morgagni.

Purpose: During transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy, preserving the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is a major challenge because visualization of this nerve is often obstructed by the thyroid itself, increasing the risk of serious complications. This study explores the application of an augmented reality (AR) system to facilitate easier identification of the RLN during transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy.

Methods: Three patients scheduled for transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy were enrolled in this proof-of-concept study.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a relatively uncommon tumor among head and neck cancers, with laryngeal involvement, typically subglottic, being exceptionally rare. While ACC usually originates in the salivary glands, its occurrence in the larynx is highly unusual. Laryngeal adenoid cystic carcinoma (LACC) is characterized by indolent growth, frequent perineural invasion, and a tendency for local recurrence.

Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) is a heterogeneous group of malignancies with poor survival outcomes, particularly in advanced stages. Identifying prognostic biomarkers could help improve patient management. miR-375, a small non-coding RNA, has been shown to influence tumor growth and immune responses, making it a candidate biomarker.
