    Abstract Background: The high-definition 3D exoscope is an innovative and promising tool that was recently introduced in the clinical practice. It may be used during open surgical procedures to enhance the ability to perform precise dissection of fine structures. We describe our preliminary experience with the 3D exoscope in thyroid surgery, discussing potential advantages of this system.
    Methods: A high-definition 3D exoscope (3D VITOM
    Results: The 3D exoscope was used in three patients without significant intra-operative delay or complications. Both thyroidectomy and central compartment dissection were performed. The 3D exoscope allows to perform precise dissection in the identification and preservation of the recurrent laryngeal nerve and the parathyroid glands.
    Conclusions: 3D exoscope-assisted thyroid surgery seems to be feasible and safe. Further studies should be encouraged to analyze potential clinical benefit in the post-operative period.

    Abstract Background: Anti-glaucoma eye drops have been investigated due to their production of fibrotic changes on the conjunctival surface, undermining the functioning of the upper lacrimal drainage system. We aimed to assess whether these effects may impair the effectiveness of endoscopic endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy (EE-DCR).
    Methods: This is a single-center observational retrospective study on EE-DCR via a posterior approach. Resolution of epiphora and dacryocystitis were analyzed after 1 (T1) and 6-months (T2) from surgery. Surgical success was defined as anatomical (patency at irrigation, no recurring dacryocystitis) or complete (zeroing of Munk score).
    Results: Twenty patients (32 sides) were enrolled. Preoperatively, 93.75% (
    Conclusions: Despite the chronic uptake of anti-glaucoma eye drops, EE-DCR guaranteed high rates of clinical relief from epiphora and remarkable decreases in the rates of recurrent dacryocystitis.

    Abstract Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) has recently undergone a significant paradigm shift, moving from a phenotypical classification towards an "endotype-based" definition that places more emphasis on clinical and therapeutic aspects. Similar to other airway diseases, like asthma, most cases of CRS in developed countries exhibit a dysregulated type-2 immune response and related cytokines. Consequently, the traditional distinction between upper and lower airways has been replaced by a "united airway" perspective. Additionally, type-2 related disorders extend beyond respiratory boundaries, encompassing conditions beyond the airways, such as atopic dermatitis. This necessitates a multidisciplinary approach. Moreover, consideration of possible systemic implications is crucial, particularly in relation to sleep-related breathing diseases like Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Syndrome (OSAS) and the alteration of systemic inflammatory mediators such as nitric oxide. The trends in epidemiological, economic, and social burden are progressively increasing worldwide, indicating syndemic characteristics. In light of these insights, this narrative review aims to present the latest evidence on respiratory type-2 related disorders, with a specific focus on CRS while promoting a comprehensive perspective on the "united airways". It also introduces a novel concept: viewing these conditions as a multiorgan, systemic, and syndemic disease.

    Abstract Background and objectives: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and nasal septum deviation (SD) are two widely diffused clinical conditions in otorhinolaryngology clinical practice. Albeit nasal symptoms are the most commonly referred by patients affected by both conditions, recent evidence has explored the impairment of nasal function beyond its local implication. Indeed, the prevalence of psychiatric disorders, specifically anxiety and depression, was found higher in patients suffering from SD or CRS than in the general population. The aim of this study was to evaluate the psychiatric burden of these conditions in terms of anxiety and depression and to assess its relationship with clinical phenotype and age.
    Methods: Monocentric cross-sectional observational study. Consecutive patients affected by CRS with or without nasal polyps or by SD were considered eligible. At referral, each patient underwent nasal endoscopy for clinical diagnosis and had to fill in the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the Sinonasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22), and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for global nasal symptoms. The population was grouped according to disease and age.
    Results: One hundred fifty patients were enrolled. We observed a statistically significant difference in mean HADS score between patients affected by CRS with nasal polyps and those suffering from CRS without nasal polyps or SD both in the overall population and by age groups. Nevertheless, there was no significant difference in the HADS score between younger patients affected by CRS and SD. The mean HADS score was significantly higher in younger patients affected by SD compared to older. Furthermore, we observed an inverse correlation between age and HADS score in each disease group, statistically significant for SD. On the contrary, in the overall population, HADS score and patient-related outcomes (PROs) were directly correlated.  Conclusions: In the era of personalized medicine, our work remarks on the critical impact of anxiety and depression on the quality of life (QoL) of patients affected by sinonasal conditions. According to our results, age affects patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and should, therefore, be enhanced in the therapeutic decision process.

    Abstract Objective: The aim of the study is to assess safety, effectiveness, and potential advantages of CO₂ fiber laser during endoscopic endonasal surgery for the resection of sinonasal neoplasms. We present text, images, and videos to show our experience with this new device recently introduced in endoscopic endonasal surgery and as a potential tool for educational purpose.
    Methods: Six patients affected by benign or malignant sinonasal tumors who underwent endoscopic resection between January and May 2021 were enrolled in the study. Surgical approach was conducted via standardized centripetal endonasal technique. During the surgery we evaluated instrument ergonomics, quality in section on both healthy tissue and tumor, coagulation, and bleeding control from major vessels.
    Results: In our experience, CO₂ fiber laser has proved to have good ergonomics, as well as to be a safe and effective tool for the resection of both neoplastic and healthy tissues. Cauterization was efficient only in vessels with average diameter lower than 1 cm. Prolonged procedural time, costs, and necessity of learning-curve and expertise are possible drawbacks.
    Conclusion: Co2-fiber laser is an effective tool which can aid the surgeon during endoscopic endonasal approach to sinonasal neoplasms.
