I´d like to introduce a funny debate. I took this picture a few years ago on the way to Kanuhura. I suppose that it is safer to pilot an airplane barefoot than wearing flip-flops. It was a Canadian de Havilland DHC-6 twin otter, the most successful seaplane ever, but this is another story. Yesterday IContinue reading “#barefootsurgeon”
A Head&Neck Surgeon´s perspective on cosmetic enhancement
or why do I go on performing rhinoplasty As a seasoned otorhinolaryngologist – head and neck surgeon, I’ve delved deep into the intricate relationship between form and function within the human anatomy. Every contour, every curve, holds significance not just in terms of aesthetics but also in how it facilitates our physiological performance. Over theContinue reading “A Head&Neck Surgeon´s perspective on cosmetic enhancement”
TransOral Robotic Surgery (TORS) for Eagle´s syndrome
Eagle’s syndrome arises from an anomalous calcification of the stylohyoid ligament, leading to the anatomical elongation of the styloid process. While this condition is generally considered an anatomical variation in asymptomatic individuals, it may manifest with diverse symptoms attributable to the presence of a rigid structure in the upper neck. Common manifestations include swallowing disturbances,Continue reading “TransOral Robotic Surgery (TORS) for Eagle´s syndrome”
