Flexible Endoscope for IAC Control of Tumor Removal

Volume measurment of the breast allows for better surgical planning and implant selection in breast reconstructive and symmetrization procedures. The safety and accuracy of tumor removal, in accordance with oncoplastic principles, may be imporved by knowing the true breast- and breast tumor volume. The authors discuss the methods of volume measurement of the breast and describe the method based on magnetic resonance imaging digital volume measurment in details. The volume of the breast parenchyma and the tumor was determined by processing the diagnostic magnetic resonance scans, and the difference in the volume of the two breasts was measured. Surgery was planned and implant selection was made based on the measured volume details. The authors conclude that digital volume measurement proved to be a valuable tool in preoperative planning of volume reducing mammaplasty, replacement of unknown size implants and in cases when breast asymmetry is treated.

Aim: To investigate the features of the vestibular schwannoma spread into the internal auditory canal and the possibilities of endoscopic removal. Objectives: To improve tumor visualization in the internal auditory canal; to create a sufficient view angle for tumor removal during endoscopic opening of the internal auditory canal. Materials and methods: The results of surgical treatment of 20 patients with vestibular schwannomas in which the tumor spread to the internal auditory canal were analyzed. Microsurgical tumor removal was performed in 14 cases; Fully endoscopic removal of vestibular schwannomas was performed in 6 cases. The internal auditory canal opening was performed in 14 cases using microsurgical technique and in 6 cases with fully the endoscopic technique. Results: Gross total removal was achieved in 18 cases, subtotal removal in 2 cases. The tumor spread into the internal auditory canal was removed in all cases (100%). Opening the internal auditory canal using the endoscopic technique allows to increase the view angle (up to 20%) and to visualize along the axis of canal. Conclusions: 1) Endoscopic assistance technique allows to improve residual tumor visualization much more better then microsurgical technique; 2) Internal auditory canal opening using endoscopic technique is much more effective than the microsurgical technique (trepanning depth is larger); 3) Endoscopic methods for the internal auditory canal opening allows to increase canal angle view up to 20% (comparing to the microsurgical view).
