Unilateral Nasopharyngeal Endoscopic Resection Type <scp>III</scp> : Technical Notes
The present video case report details technical notes of Nasopharyngeal Endoscopic Resection (NER) Type III, performed for a mucosal melanoma in a 71-year-old patient. Key surgical steps-such as achieving optimal exposure, employing Doppler-guided internal carotid artery localization, and applying vascularized flap coverage-are outlined, demonstrating the precision and feasibility of this approach for treatment of these complex malignancies.
