Latest AI and machine learning research in surgery for healthcare professionals.
Head and Neck cancer can be treated by non-surgical or surgical modalities. Current surgical techniques include open surgery and transoral resections. The latter have the distinct advantage of quicker recovery and reduced hospital stay. The further down the aerodigestive tract tumours are sited, the more difficult is the transoral access, requiring techniques that combine magnification and finer i...
Over the past decade, the development of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) brought a new opportunity in the treatment of early T-stage oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). The objective of this study is to review the functional outcomes after TORS. Indeed, dysphagia is among the most commonly cited functional impairments in OPSCC survivors treated by surgeries with an open approach or con...
OBJECTIVE: To review and summarize functional and oncologic outcomes after transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for non-oropharyngeal head and neck malign...
OBJECTIVE: To report 2.5-year survival outcomes for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma treated primarily with transoral robotic-assisted resection.
BACKGROUND: Transoral, minimally invasive, organ preservation surgeries are increasingly used to treat laryngopharyngeal carcinomas to avoid the toxic...
Surgery to the base of tongue (BOT) in the presence of neoplasm is a challenging topic for head and neck surgeons. This area is difficult to access an...
Management of base of tongue (BOT) is a challenging topic in surgical management of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. After the introduction of transo...
OBJECTIVES: The parapharyngeal space (PPS) is an anatomically complex space in the vicinity of vital structures. With the introduction of the daVinci ...
BACKGROUND: In search for less invasive operative techniques, the da Vinci Robot System was introduced in thyroid surgery. Previous studies have repor...
OBJECTIVE: To compare transvaginal versus conventional laparoscopy for dermoid cysts.
Epidemic outbreaks of avian influenza (AI) virus H5N1 have been frequently reported in Egypt during the last nine years. Here we investigate the invol...
