TL;DRA case of FAS that showed no abnormalities on MRI and was treated, and combined endoscopic surgery is a promising tool for treating perimedullary AVFs in the ventral thoracic spinal cord is reported.

TL;DRThe visuo-operative angle (VOA) is a simple, reproducible geometrical metric that relates the surgeon's line of sight and instrument path to the target plane, adding directional detail not captured by conventional metric…

TL;DREUS before TEM shows good overall accuracy and excellent reliability for excluding deep invasion, with progressive improvement over the past 3 decades, and continues to play a pivotal role in selecting candidates for org…

TL;DRThis case report is the first to use an autonomous robotic (ATR) system for minimally invasive EMS on a maxillary first molar, combined with precise lateral wall sinus fenestration, with real-time monitoring of depth, an…

[BACKGROUND]  Surgery is the only salvage treatment for radiotherapy (RT) failures in glottic carcinoma management, and total laryngectomy is performed in the majority of cases, resulting in a substantial decline in the quality of life for …

TL;DRPOEM was associated with increased healthcare resource utilization, more post-procedure testing, lower odds of definitive disease reintervention, and similar rates of adverse events compared to HM and PD.

Esophageal achalasia is a rare smooth muscle disorder characterized by the absence of peristalsis and impaired relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), ultimately leading to obstruction and impaired bolus transit. Pediatric achal…

Naltrexone is a competitive opioid receptor antagonist that is FDA-approved for the treatment of alcohol and opioid use disorders. It is also used as an off-label treatment for a plethora of conditions spanning multiple specialties, includi…

TL;DRIn pT1 adenocarcinoma, only submucosal invasion beyond sm1, high grade, and LVI independently predict recurrence, underscoring the need for risk-adapted, multidisciplinary management.

TL;DRThe electromagnetically actuated transducer achieves a wide scanning range despite its compact size, showing great promise for surgery by facilitating the identification of subdural anatomy and enabling customized dural …

TL;DRConsidering the evolving potential of minimally invasive techniques, advanced age should not be regarded as a contraindication for the definitive treatment of achalasia, and evidence-based, age-specific recommendations s…

TL;DRTEM/TEO achieved a high rate of R0 resection with organ preservation in this small single-centre series of rectal GIST, and tumour size alone should not be considered an absolute contraindication when en-bloc excision wi…

TL;DRPeritoneal opening during TEM/TEO is infrequent, anatomically driven, and usually manageable with secure endoluminal repair, with no evident increase in short-term morbidity.

TL;DRIn patients with incidental pT1 rectal adenocarcinoma following EMR or ESD, completion TEM provides excellent short-term oncological outcomes with minimal morbidity and offers a viable alternative to radical surgery, esp…

TL;DRThe da Vinci SP system is feasible and safe for diverse colorectal procedures, demonstrating zero conversions, minimal blood loss, acceptable operative times, and favorable short-term oncological outcomes.

TL;DRTES was associated with lower all-cause mortality, fewer complications, and lower healthcare utilization when compared to ESD, supporting patient-centered procedure selection based on lesion characteristics and instituti…

Skull base tumors, which compress the optic chiasm, include meningiomas, craniopharyngiomas, and pituitary macroadenomas and pose a serious neurosurgical problem. The best surgical route, that is, endoscopic endonasal (EEA) versus microsurg…

TL;DRBotulinum toxin injection may benefit specific swallowing parameters, such as NRRS_P, OTT, PTT, and PRT, and enhance FOIS in NPC patients with radiation-induced CPMD, however, its overall impact on swallowing function re…
