Background: This study aimed to compare the clinical efficacy and prognosis of transcervical resection of polyp (TCRP) combined with levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) or oral desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol tablets (DET) in patients with endometrial polyps (EMP).
Methods: A total of 100 EMP patients undergoing TCRP were divided into LNG-IUS ( = 50) and DET ( = 50) groups. Hemoglobin, endometrial thickness, FSH, E2, and LH levels were monitored pre-surgery and post-surgery. Clinical symptom improvement, adverse reactions, and recurrence rates were assessed over 12 months.
Results: Both treatments improved hemoglobin levels and reduced endometrial thickness, but the LNG-IUS group showed superior outcomes. At 12 months, it achieved higher improvement rates for dysmenorrhea (72.0% vs. 34.0%), abnormal cycles (60.0% vs. 24.0%), and blood loss (52.0% vs. 30.0%), with fewer adverse reactions (4.0% vs. 24.0%) and a lower recurrence rate (0% vs. 16.0%, all < .05).
Conclusions: LNG-IUS with TCRP outperformed DET in reducing endometrial thickness, alleviating symptoms, lowering side effects, and preventing recurrence in EMP.

Hysteroscopic resection is considered the gold standard treatment for the removal of submucous uterine leiomyoma (SMLs). However, when hysteroscopic equipment is unavailable, alternative treatment approaches must be explored. In this case report, we present a video demonstrating the transcervical resection of an SML performed under transabdominal ultrasonography guidance on a patient with persistent abnormal uterine bleeding.

To evaluate the feasibility and clinical efficacy of transoral endoscopic-assisted submandibular gland resection with low-temperature plasma knife technology, aiming to establish a scarless surgical approach to meet the patients aesthetic demands. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 5 consecutive patients with benign submandibular gland pathologies treated by a single surgical team between January 2021 and December 2023. All procedures employed a transoral mucosal incision in the floor of mouth, with 0-degree high-definition endoscope assistance and low-temperature plasma knife for precise dissection and hemostasis.

Objective: Eagle syndrome, categorized into classical styloid syndrome and stylocarotid syndrome, presents challenges in determining the optimal surgical approach for styloid process (SP) resection. While intraoral resection suffices for many cases, especially classical styloid syndrome cases, stylocarotid syndrome sometimes demands a transcervical resection due to its intricate spatial dynamics. We describe a step-by-step procedure for modified transcervical resection using a supra digastric muscle approach (SDMA) for SP, emphasizing anatomical precision.

Background: Retropharyngeal lymph node (RPLN) metastases in thyroid cancer are rare, with optimal management underreported.
Methods: Retrospective study of consecutive thyroid cancer patients with RPLN metastases treated at MD Anderson Cancer Center between 2000 and 2024.
Results: One hundred and sixty-seven patients (75% differentiated, 21% medullary, 4% poorly differentiated thyroid cancer) were divided into three groups: active surveillance (AS) (13%), surgery (56%), and nonsurgical treatment (31%).
