In most cases, the superior laryngeal artery (SLA) branches from the superior thyroid artery, which, in turn, leaves the external carotid artery. Few dissection studies found previously that the SLA could originate from the lingual artery. We report here probably the first evidence of such a rare anatomical variation found unilaterally in a retrospectively evaluated by computed tomography angiography adult male case.

Introduction: Laser surgery of the larynx is currently the standard of clinical practice in a multitude of procedures. Lasers with photoangiolytic properties have a wide application in endolaryngeal lesions. One of their most prominent features is the ability to coagulate blood vessels, reducing unwanted tissue damage.

Background: In-office laryngological procedures became common alternatives to general anesthesia for biopsies, injection laryngoplasties, and laser procedures. The limiting step remains the laryngeal anesthesia whose quality can influence patients' and operators' comfort.
Methods: We propose to dye the lidocaine with methylene blue and do an instillation through a catheter introduced in the video-endoscope's operating channel, which permits a progressive anesthesia focused on the larynx, avoiding an unwanted pharyngeal anesthesia and any tracheal irritation.

Introduction: Despite detailed characterization of fascicular organization of somatic nerves, the functional anatomy of fascicles evident in human and large mammal cervical vagus nerve is unknown. The vagus nerve is a prime target for intervention in the field of electroceuticals due to its extensive distribution to the heart, larynx, lungs, and abdominal viscera. However, current practice of the approved vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) technique is to stimulate the entire nerve.
