Abstract

The article discusses the versatility of the SPIWAY, an endonasal access guide (EAG) used in surgery. The SPIWAY is a stent that can be placed in the nasal cavity to provide access during endoscopic endonasal surgery. The study includes a retrospective review of cases, a cadaveric model, and a literature review to demonstrate the various uses of the SPIWAY. The article highlights the advantages of the SPIWAY, such as reducing aerosol spread, improving efficiency, and preventing tumor spillage. Overall, the SPIWAY is a useful tool in facilitating access in different surgical approaches within the head and neck. [Extracted from the article]
