  • To leverage advancements in surgical instrument technology for improved patient care.

Main Methods:

  • Development and application of a new endoscopic surgical technique.
  • Utilization of advanced suturing or stapling devices.
  • Focus on minimizing tissue trauma during pharyngeal pouch treatment.

Main Results:

  • The presented technique successfully addresses pharyngeal pouches.
  • The method adheres to the philosophy of minimally invasive surgery.
  • Incorporation of advanced stapling technology facilitates the procedure.

Conclusions:

  • The described endoscopic technique offers a minimally invasive approach to pharyngeal pouch treatment.
  • Advancements in surgical stapling devices are crucial for the success of such procedures.
  • This technique represents a step forward in applying MIS principles to pharyngeal pouch management.
