Congenital dacryocystocele is a rare clinical condition, more commonly unilateral, secondary to the defective canalization of the nasolacrimal duct. In case of failure of conservative treatment, surgical marsupialization is recommended. We describe the case of a 40-days'old male newborn treated by means of microdebrider marsupialization.

We described a minimally invasive technique for transoral removal of deep hiloparenchymal submandibular stones by Flex Robotic System; a step-by-step description of the transoral robotic approach to submandibular gland through a discrete incision of the oral floor is narrated. This approach guaranteed the preservation of the gland, minimizing complications.

The COVID-19 pandemic has raised concern of viral transmission during otolaryngological procedures by means of droplets/saliva. The use of PPE and isolation settings are mandatory during surgery. This paper describes the development of the STAPID setting to reduce salivary spread during a sialendoscopy-assisted transfacial removal of a parotid stone.
