Objectives: The objective of this pilot study was to report the feasibility and safety of a new 3-port supraclavicular approach in endoscopic submandibular sialoadenectomy. Methods: We reported the safety, surgical feasibility, and aesthetic features of the total endoscopic submandibular sialoadenectomy (submandibular gland excision) using a 3-port supraclavicular approach in our institute from December 2018 to January 2020. Results: Endoscopic submandibular sialoadenectomy using a 3-port supraclavicular approach was performed in 2 patients with intraglandular sialolithiasis. No major adverse events occurred in this study. The patient’s satisfaction score was high (more than 8; range: 0-10). Conclusions: The 3-port supraclavicular approach submandibular sialoadenectomy is a feasible method that permits a relatively good surgical scarring and minimal adverse effects.

“…We carried on this approach after our previous success in performing many cases of endoscopic thyroidectomy and endoscopic submandibular sialdenectomy. 4,24 We tried this new approach in 6 selected patients with early-stage (stage I) primary head and neck carcinomas. Despite being lengthy, challenging, and requiring much experience, we succeeded to accomplish the END in the 6 cases without conversion to open approach.…”

“…Dissection of level I b follows the same steps of the endoscopic submandibular sialadenectomy discussed before by the senior author in his previous publication. 4 Precise visualization and preservation of all important cervical neurovascular structures (including carotid sheath, marginal mandibular, lingual, hypoglossal, and spinal accessory nerves) is carried out throughout the whole procedure as seen in figures 2. Extra-care should be paid when dissecting along the internal jugular vein (IJV) as it will be totally collapsed by the insufflation pressure (8 mm).…”

Introduction This study aims to demonstrate the safety, surgical feasibility, and esthetic features of total endoscopic neck dissection (END) through anterior chest wall approach (ACWA) without creation of any neck incisions. Resection of their primary tumors followed by selective total END through ACWA using 3 ports (one 10-mm port for the camera and two 5-mm ports for the working instruments). Methods From January 2020 to August 2020, 6 patients with a biopsy proven head and neck carcinoma underwent resection of their primary tumors followed by selective total END through ACWA using 3 ports (one 10-mm port for the camera and two 5-mm ports for the working instruments). Results The selective neck dissection was successfully performed endoscopically in all cases with no conversion to open approach and with good visualization of the major neurovascular structures. The operative time for the END ranged from 120 to 170 minutes, with 10–50 mL estimated blood loss. No significant perioperative complications were encountered. The mean total number of cervical LN retrieved was 13.67 + 2.42, and the mean LNR was .01 + .13. All patients were discharged in the third postoperative day, and they were satisfied with the cosmetic outcome. Conclusion Selective total END through ACWA is technically feasible and safe with satisfactory cosmetic results. The absence of neck scars and magnification of the important neurovascular structures are the most obvious advantages of this innovative technique. It may be a valid alternative to conventional surgery when performed in selected patients. However, further research with longer follow up is needed to clarify the oncological safety and the real benefits of END in head and neck cancer patients.
