Nerve damage and intraoperative bleeding for the removal of the hilar stones are possible. We used the new modified lateral oral floor approach with a 2-3 cm longitudinal mucosal incision outside of the Wharton's. There were no complications and our technique seemed to be effective.

Is naso-axial line a better predictor in endoscopic endonasal resection of the odontoid and pannus removal? Technical nuances of maximizing corridor and maintaining occipital cervical joint stability.

Background: The transoral transpharyngeal odontoidectomy, followed by occipitocervical fixation, have traditionally been a recognized method for ameliorating ventral compression at the craniovertebral junction (CVJ), despite its associated comorbidities. As an alternative, the endoscopic endonasal odontoid resection is a viable approach for various CVJ abnromalities that preserve the oropharynx and leads to fewer procedure-related complications(1-4). We present our case to detail the technical nuances of the procedure and its advantages over other techniques.

Importance: With advancements in robotic surgery, robotic-assisted thyroidectomy is gaining popularity. The introduction of the 3-port transoral robotic thyroidectomy (T-TORT) offers an alternative approach with potential benefits in postoperative recovery compared to traditional methods.
Objective: To assess the safety and feasibility of T-TORT in comparison to the transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA).
Short- and Long-Term Swallowing Outcomes in Head and Neck Cancer Patients Receiving TORS and Adjuvant Therapy.

Roxelyn and Richard Pepper Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders, School of Communication, Evanston, Illinois, USA.
Background: Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) is a common morbidity resulting from the treatment of head-and-neck squamous-cell carcinoma (HNSCC) due to surgery and chemoradiation. Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is a minimally invasive surgical technique for the management of HNSCC, which ideally avoids many of the known complications of open surgery. Research describing physiologic swallowing impairment after surgery using videofluoroscopy is lacking.

Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Wexner Medical Center at The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, USA.
Purpose: Advancements in endoscopic skull base surgery have enabled complex tumor resections, necessitating a variety of reliable reconstructive techniques to repair resultant defects. Vascularized flaps represent optimal options, but frequently used local pedicled intranasal flaps may be unavailable due to tumor invasion or prior surgery. This study applies a modification to the previously described salpingopharyngeus myomucosal flap (Dicle flap) with potential for its use in extensive endoscopic skull base surgery defect's repair.

Unlabelled: Neurosurgical interventions within the ventral surface of the clivus and upper cervical vertebrae in childhood are sometimes carried out through transoral approach. In this situation, tracheostomy is safer for airway protection and mechanical ventilation compared to prolonged intubation. The world experience of percutaneous dilation tracheostomy in pediatric patients is limited due to anatomical and physiological features, such as difficult orientation in anatomical landmarks, high mobility of the trachea and small tracheal lumen.
