Herein we present an exoscopic surgical setup, implemented for transoral laser microsurgery, by the VITOM® 3D-HD system. Our proposed exoscopic setting overcomes safety limits of the conventional operating microscope, being suitable with the adoption of full PPE necessary facing with suspected or confirmed positive SARS-CoV-2 patients needing urgent microsurgical procedures. The use of protocols to reduce the virus spreading is mandatory to safely treat also patients potentially SARS-CoV-2 infected. The described surgical setup is advisable to manage urgent microsurgical procedures along the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, being applicable PPE necessary to treat potentially or confirmed SARS-CoV-2-infected patients.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the pain, neuromusculoskeletal complications, and quality of life (QoL) in patients who had undergone partial parotidectomy (PP) for benign parotid tumors. All patients were evaluated before (T0) and at 1week (T1) and 1month (T2) after surgery. The patients were assessed for cervical range of motion (ROM), neck pain (NRS), neuropathic pain (DN4), neck disability (NDI), facial disability (FDI), and the presence of facial neuropathy, and QoL. Twenty patients were included. A slight decrease was noted in cervical ROM, mild neck pain and disabi
