Robotic transmaxillary approach to the lateral infratemporal fossa: A preclinical cadaveric study using a next-generation single-port robotic system.

Head & neck
Robotic transmaxillary skull base surgery has been described using multiport systems. This cadaveric study investigates the feasibility of transmaxillary skull base surgery using a next-generation robot. An extended Caldwell-Luc antrostomy, measuring...

Machine learning models to predict length of stay and discharge destination in complex head and neck surgery.

Head & neck
BACKGROUND: This study develops machine learning (ML) algorithms that use preoperative-only features to predict discharge-to-nonhome-facility (DNHF) and length-of-stay (LOS) following complex head and neck surgeries.

Transoral robotic parapharyngeal approach to the submandibular space.

Head & neck
The aim of the study was to demonstrate a novel transoral parapharyngeal approach to the submandibular space. The method used was the clinical case of a patient presenting with an anteriorly based tumor in the left submandibular space. The video show...

Retroauricular thyroidectomy with a single-arm robotic surgical system: Preclinical cadaveric study.

Head & neck
BACKGROUND: In this study, we evaluate a new flexible, single-arm robotic system in performing thyroidectomy via a retroauricular approach.

Single-port transoral robotic combined approach with sialendoscopy for sialolithiasis: Case report and review of the literature.

Head & neck
BACKGROUND: The da Vinci single-port (SP) is utilized in transoral robotic surgery (TORS) procedures for malignant oropharyngeal tumors. We report a case utilizing the da Vinci SP in TORS for sialolith removal.

Artificial intelligence system for detecting superficial laryngopharyngeal cancer with high efficiency of deep learning.

Head & neck
BACKGROUND: There are no published reports evaluating the ability of artificial intelligence (AI) in the endoscopic diagnosis of superficial laryngopharyngeal cancer (SLPC). We presented our newly developed diagnostic AI model for SLPC detection.

A new endoscopic surgical approach to the larynx, hypopharynx, and neck lymphatics: The robotic-assisted extended "Sistrunk" approach (RESA).

Head & neck
BACKGROUND: We report on the feasibility of a novel robotic-assisted extended "Sistrunk" approach (RESA) to the larynx, hypopharynx, and lateral neck lymphatics.

One-year outcomes for da Vinci single port robot for transoral robotic surgery.

Head & neck
BACKGROUND: The da Vinci single-port (SP) robot is a new instrument for transoral robotic surgery (TORS) in oropharyngeal cancers (OPSCCs). We describe one-year SP surgical outcomes and compare them to da Vinci Si outcomes.

Robotic assisted transaxillary thymectomy: Novel approach to thymic surgery.

Head & neck
BACKGROUND: We present a video case with a novel, minimally invasive approach to the thymus, which does not require a sternotomy, thoracic incision, or entry into the pleural space.

Cervical-transoral robotic nasopharyngectomy: A preclinical study.

Head & neck
BACKGROUND: We performed a preclinical study to assess the feasibility of the cervical-transoral robotic pharyngectomy procedure in surgery for nasopharyngeal cancer, where deep margins and vascular safety are key issues.
