BACKGROUND Based on our previous experiences with endoscopic or robotic neck surgery utilizing the retroauricular (RA) or modified facelift (MFL) approach, we realized the value of verifying the feasibility of endoscopic supraomohyoid neck dissection (SOND). Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential role of endoscopic SOND. METHODS Six patients who underwent elective ...

BACKGROUND Robot-assisted neck dissection in patients with head and neck cancer has been demonstrated to be feasible. We conceived a surgical technique of surgery for parotid cancer with the robotic system via a gasless modified facelift (MFL) approach. A detailed surgical technique is provided. METHODS In a 28-year-old female patient with parotid cancer, the disease was treated with primary ...

Thoracic duct cysts may occur either in the mediastinum or in the neck. The majority of such lesions occurring in the neck consist of chylous fistulae and are secondary to surgery on the neck. Fewer than five cases have been reported in the literature of primary thoracic duct cysts occurring in the neck (1).

background: the aim of this study was to present epidemiological aspects of malignant tumor of head and neck in southeast of iran, with a view toward analyzing the age, gender, site distribution and histological types.  methods: all cases with malignant tumor of the head and neck region from 1999 to 2009 were retrieved from the records of cancer registry center of kerman university of medical s...

In head and neck cancers, regional spreading occurs via lymphatic pathways. Therefore, neck dissection is frequently performed in these patients; however, this results in a large incision scar in the neck. Retroauricular robotic surgical approach may be used for neck dissection as a remote-access method. This review presents a discussion of publications on retroauricular robotic neck dissection...
