Accuracy of World Health Organisation‐grade parameters (necrosis and mitotic activity) and foci of vascular invasion in predicting prognosis of papillary thyroid carcinoma. A case–control validation study Open
Aims Tumour necrosis and/or increased mitoses define high‐grade papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). It is unclear whether angioinvasion is prognostic for PTC. Cut‐offs at five or more mitoses/2 mm 2 and four or more angioinvasive foci have …

Postoperative hypoparathyroidism after completion thyroidectomy for well-differentiated thyroid cancer Open
Objective Thyroid surgery may lead to postoperative complications. The aim of this paper was to determine whether the rate of postoperative hypoparathyroidism (HPT) is influenced by whether surgery is staged. Design Single-institution retr…

Congenital Nasal Pyriform Aperture Stenosis: Successful Management of Restenosis After Primary Surgery by Stent Placement Open
Congenital nasal pyriform aperture stenosis (CNPAS) is a rare anomaly causing respiratory distress in newborns. While the primary surgical technique is well established, the timing of the removal of the stents and the management of resteno…

Expression of NOTCH1 in thyroid cancer is mostly restricted to papillary carcinoma Open
The NOTCH signaling is an evolutionarily conserved signaling pathway that regulates cell–cell interactions. NOTCH family members play a fundamental role in a variety of processes during development in particular in cell fate decisions. As …
