Transoral endoscopic radical resection for a recurrent pyriform sinus fistula

In revision surgery for a recurrent pyriform sinus fistula (PSF), complete resection of the fistula via a transcervical approach is difficult because of the surrounding scar tissue that results from previous surgery and infections. We successfully performed transoral endoscopic radical resection of...
