Minimally Invasive ENT Surgeries
This session will spotlight cutting-edge advances in minimally invasive procedures across ENT disciplines, including endoscopic ear surgeries, transnasal approaches, laser-assisted tonsillectomy, and sialendoscopy. It will also discuss the integration of image guidance, robotics, and AI for precision surgery.Benefits such as reduced recovery times, minimal scarring, and improved outcomes make these techniques highly desirable in modern ENT practice. This track will be useful for ENT surgeons seeking to refine skills and integrate the latest surgical innovations.In addition, the track will explore patient selection criteria, perioperative management, and long-term outcomes associated with these techniques. Case-based discussions will highlight real-world applications in managing chronic sinusitis, cholesteatoma, obstructive salivary gland diseases, and sleep apnea. Presentations will also delve into the use of flexible endoscopes, balloon sinuplasty, and CO₂ laser systems for enhanced precision and safety. Attendees will gain insight into how minimally invasive approaches can be adapted for pediatric and geriatric populations, offering tailored benefits for vulnerable patients. This comprehensive overview will provide practical strategies and tools for ENT professionals committed to adopting less invasive, patient-centered surgical care.
