DOI: 10.1007/s00405-020-06249-4
Abstract: Tonsillectomy is being performed either with a headlight, surgical loupe magnification or with microscopic aid. We report the technique of endoscope holder-assisted endoscopic tonsillectomy using coblation. Coblation tonsillectomy has the primary advantage of limited thermal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijporl.2020.110074
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Retropharyngeal lymphatic malformations (LMs) are uncommon congenital anomalies. Open surgery, sclerotherapy and various pharmaceutical agents have been described to manage these lesions. However, when such lesions involve the retropharyngeal space with evidence of airway… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000021437
Abstract: Abstract Rationale: Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) lesions involve disruption of the osteochondral unit along articular surfaces, with significant potential for joint deterioration if not managed appropriately. Patient concerns: A 15-year-old male presented with persistent and insidious… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2021.779480
Abstract: Background Minimally invasive techniques, such as percutaneous low-power laser discectomy (PLLD) and low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation (coblation) can be applied to treat degenerative cervical radiculopathy. However, less evidence supports the superiority of distinct minimally-invasive therapy.… read more here.

DOI: 10.5144/0256-4947.2022.377
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage (PTH) affects around 4% of patients after tonsillectomy. We hypothesized that preoperative thromboelastography (TEG) might identify patients at higher risk of PTH. OBJECTIVE: Investigate whether evaluation of coagulation function by preoperative TEG… read more here.
