OBJECTIVE: Sialendoscopy has remained the standard of treatment for sialolithiasis; however, large stones impacted in the submandibular gland hilum often require an intra-oral combined approach.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: The objectives of this study were to describe robot-assisted sialolithotomy with sialendoscopy (RASS) for the management of large palpable hilar submandibular gland (SMG) stones and analyze procedural success and lingual nerve ...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the value of a deep learning (DL) model based on greyscale ultrasound (US) images for precise assessment and accurate diagnosis of primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS).
The diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) is challenging at all stages due to variable symptomatology, comorbidities, and mimicking conditions. Postmortem assessment remains the gold standard for a definitive diagnosis. While it is well recognized th...

Treatment of symptomatic impacted and palpable submandibular lithiasis generally involves a combined transoral and sialendoscopic approach with an excellent success rate, and a low morbidity. Nevertheless, the approach of proximal or hilar lithiasis ...
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...
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.
Submandibular gland excision is generally performed through a transcervical approach, a safe procedure that, however, carries few neurological, functional and aesthetic drawbacks. Intraoral approach to the submandibular gland has been described many ...
OBJECTIVES: We evaluated the diagnostic performance of a deep learning system for the detection of Sjögren's syndrome (SjS) in ultrasonography (US) images, and compared it with the performance of inexperienced radiologists.
