Bones, stones and surgical moans: rethinking PTH dynamics in parathyroid surgery
Intraoperative parathyroid hormone (IOPTH) testing has revolutionised minimally invasive unilateral parathyroidectomy (MIP) as the gold standard treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism, replacing old-timey four-gland exploration. IOPTH testing ensures reliable excision of all hypersecreting glands, including those pesky hard-to-find ones, without relying...FENTEX Medical welcomes Michael Voegtle as Director of International Sales

How quality improvement helped to create local guidelines for good tracheostomy care
Significant morbidity and mortality is associated with tracheostomy insertion. A complex, multistep process exists to help patients towards decannulation. This process is often complicated by patient comorbidities, discontinuity of care and communication as patients move through hospital, and variable experience...
Understanding cough
The prevalence of chronic cough in the adult population is 10–12%. Chronic cough is common and costly, and represents a substantial clinical and economic burden. Duration-based classification guides evaluation. Distinguishing acute (<3 weeks), subacute (3–8 weeks), and chronic (>8 weeks)...Building low-cost high-fidelity simulation for ENT
In this article, the authors describe their ingenious technique to produce affordable yet realistic simulation models for some common ENT procedures. The use of surgical simulation in otolaryngology training has significantly increased in recent years. This is most likely due...Surgical challenges in advanced or recurrent thyroid malignancy
The management of thyroid malignancy and extent of surgery is controversial, especially considering the limitations of preoperative diagnosis. Neil Tolley provides guidance and reminds us of our responsibility not to over-treat. In the UK, 16% of thyroidectomies are performed for...
Does surgical complexity influence hearing preservation after perimodiolar cochlear implantation?
In this prospective study, 34 adults underwent perimodiolar cochlear implantation with an extended round window approach. Three investigators reviewed fluoroscopic, electrocochleography (ECochG) and video data recorded simultaneously during the surgeries. Surgical complexity was also recorded as straightforward or complex. Residual...
