Clinical Laboratory of Radiology and Medical Imaging, "Sf. Apostol Andrei" County Emergency Hospital, 900591 Constanta, Romania.
Article Synopsis
- Aortic arch anomalies are varied conditions that can significantly affect patient health, and understanding their prevalence and effective diagnostic methods is essential for quality patient care.
- A study was conducted in a hospital analyzing data from 2350 patients who underwent CT angiography, revealing 18 individuals diagnosed with various aortic arch anomalies like left aortic arch with aberrant right subclavian artery and aortic coarctation.
- Although these anomalies are frequently asymptomatic, advanced CT techniques are the best diagnostic approach, capable of highlighting associated cardiac or vascular issues.
445nm Blue Laser for Cricopharyngeal Myotomy/Zenker's Diverticulotomy: Proof of Concept and Use.

November 2024
Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A.
Objective(s): Treatment for Zenker's diverticulum and cricopharyngeal dysfunction has evolved to include flexible endoscopic approaches. Currently, no flexible modalities combine the precision cutting of CO laser and the hemostasis of knife electrocautery. We present the first series describing fiber-based 445nm blue light (BL) laser for endoscopic cricopharyngeal myotomy/Zenker's diverticulotomy.
