AIM: The primary aim of our retrospective chart review is to compare open surgical (OS) tracheostomies performed by specialist and supervised resident surgeons, focusing on surgical time and post-surgical complications. The secondary objective was to compare these data based on the years of surgical experience for both specialists and residents. ME...
Objectives. The purpose of this study is to present the long-term functional swallowing outcomes of various surgical approaches to oral tongue/floor of mouth squamous cell carcinoma (OTFOMSCC) according to a modular and compartment-based concept previously described elsewhere. Methods. A retrospective study was conducted on patients undergoing surg...
Purpose
Anterolateral thigh free flap (ALTFF) is a versatile option for tongue reconstruction after cancer resection. Compartmental tongue surgery (CTS) is a surgical technique whose purpose is to remove the entire oncological compartment with the pathways of tumor spread. Extended glossectomies (EG) follow the same surgical steps and anatomical co...
Objective
The local spread of oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) follows pathways of dissemination along areas of lesser resistance. In more advanced scenarios, the tumor can extend beyond the hemi-tongue of origin, by passing through the lingual septum and following the fibers of the transverse muscle. This can lead to the invasion of the...
The oral cavity is a primary site for malignant neoplasms of the head and neck region. Surgery, with or without adjuvant therapy, offers the highest probability of cure by focusing on radical tumour removal and organ function restoration. Reconstructive options are represented by local and free flaps, while small defects can be managed without reco...
Objective. The primary focus of this study was to analyze the adoption of ChatGPT among Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) trainees, encompassing its role in scientific research and personal study. We examined in which year ENT trainees become involved in clinical research and how many scientific investigations they have been engaged in.Methods. An online...
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to evaluate ChatGPT's responses to Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) clinical cases and compare them with the responses of ENT specialists.
Methods
We have hypothesized 10 scenarios, based on ENT daily experience, with the same primary symptom. We have constructed 20 clinical cases, 2 for each scenario. We described t...
We present a video of a tracheal resection and anastomosis performed on a patient affected by A-shaped tracheal stenosis. The condition was a consequence of a percutaneous tracheostomy following a Sars-Cov2 infection. Airways management during the surgery was obtained with the Tritube®, an innovative device with a very small lumen that combines sta...
Introduction:
In the last decade, compartmental surgery (CTS) has been the surgical approach of choice for advanced tumors of the tongue and oral floor.
Methods:
Advanced tumors (cT3-T4) oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) may extend beyond the lingual septum and involve the contralateral hemitongue, developing along the intrinsic transv...

Background: Cochlear implantation (CI) following endoscopic transcanal infrapromontorial vestibular schwannoma (VS) dissection is a feasible intervention in intracanalicular VS, with minimal extension into the cerebellopontine angle, but no audiologic results have ever been reported in the literature. Methods: From 2015 to 2021 in the Otorhynolaryn...
The submental flap (SMF) is a reliable option for head and neck reconstruction. It is a pedicle flap based on the submental artery and vein, divisions of the facial pedicle.
The purpose of this Operative Technique is to describe the step-by-step setup of the submental flap for reconstruction of the preauricular region and to briefly examine its ver...
Background
The Cochlear™ Osia ® 2 System is an active transcutaneous bone-anchored hearing implant with a newly developed piezoelectric transducer that is fixed to a titanium implant (BI300).
Methods
It uses digital piezoelectric stimulation to bypass non-functional areas of the natural hearing system and send sound directly to the cochlea. This d...
IntroductionNowadays, 70% of patients in Europe and the USA are affected by a p16 + , potentially HPV driven oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. However, despite the improved survival rate in this group, the quality-of-life remains low in cases which neck dissection took place. In this vein, in recent years, some surgeons have considered to avoi...
Objective
The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on new diagnoses of head and neck cancer (HNC) in South Tyrol, northern Italy in terms of the number of new diagnoses and worsening disease stage due to diagnostic delay.Methods
Patients were divided into two groups: the control group with a first diagnosis of HNC in...
About 80-90% of minor salivary glands neoplasms are malignant. Adenoid cystic carcinoma is the most common.

In 1991 Spiro et al stated that the staging criteria and the surgical approach to MSGC was identical to that of SCC in the same locations.
•
The concept of DOI is not applicable to MSGCs developed in the submucosa surrounded by connective...
Objective
The aim of this article is to describe step by step the endoscopic treatment of acquired subglottic stenosis (SGS) in an infant and to show the endoscopic results one month after surgery.
Study design
Case presentation with instructional video.
Setting
University Hospital of Verona, Italy.
Methods
We present the case of a 6-month-old e...
Tiepolo (1696–1770) was an Italian Rococo painter and printmaker, and is now considered to be one of the most important members of the 18th-century Venetian school. The muse that lent her face to Cleopatra and inspired many Tiepolo’s works was his beloved wife, Maria Cecilia Guardi. Because of her appearance, we cannot rule out that she suffered fr...
