This is a case report of an upper parapharyngeal abscess arising from the progression of a central skull base osteomyelitis in a patient with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus. It’s unusual for its presentation in an upper parapharyngeal location, involvement of the skull base, and poor response to medical treatment, hence requiring transnasal endoscopic surgical drainage to achieve definitive treatment.
How To: Exoscopic Transoral Supraglottic Laryngectomy
This is a case of an 85-year-old patient with a cT2N0 laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma treated using CO2 transoral laser exoscopic surgery (TOLES).
How To: Prelacrimal–Transmaxillary Approach to Lateral Sphenoid Recess Skull Base Defects
This study describes a prelacrimal–transpterygoid/maxillary approach that offers direct access to this region with a 0° endoscope.
How To: Modified Technique for Retrograde Placement of the Tracheoesophageal Voice Prosthesis in the Office
This article describes an updated and straightforward technique for in-office retrograde placement of the voice prosthesis in patients with challenging TEP tracts.
How To: Endoscopic Anterior Laryngotracheal Reconstruction
This article introduces a new endoscopic technique for anterior LTR using costal rib cartilage grafting in a two-year-old patient with acquired grade III subglottic stenosis.
How To: A Novel Hybrid Procedure Combining Resection and Tracheoplasty for Complex Laryngotracheal Stenosis
This study describes the successful use of a hybrid resection and laryngotracheoplasty procedure that maximizes airway luminal patency in adults with successful decannulation.
How to: Pre-Epiglottic Baton Plate in Newborns with PRS: Revisiting the Practical Workflow
Pierre Robin sequence (PRS) has an estimated prevalence of one in 10,000 births and is characterized by micrognathia and glossoptosis leading to upper airway compromise. As airway obstruction can be life-threatening, immediate recognition and treatment are vital.
How To: Combined Direct Tumoral Puncture Embolization with Onyx and Transarterial Embolization for JNA
Onyx is a safe and effective embolic agent used in the treatment paradigm of jna. This study offers a tandem approach that combines tae with dpe and onyx to limit blood loss and facilitate safe resection.
How To: A Case Report of Transnasal Endoscopic Drainage for Upper Parapharyngeal Abscess
A safe technique for transnasal endoscopic drainage of upper parapharyngeal abscesses.
How To: Creating Patient-Specific 3D-printed Airway Models for Slide Tracheoplasty
This protocol describes the method for creating 3D-printed trachea models for use in high-fidelity simulation-based training and advanced surgical planning for pediatric patients undergoing slide tracheoplasty.
