Report of Funded and Unfunded Projects
Past Funded Projects
1998-1999 Development of recurrent laryngeal neuropraxic dog model
Xomed, Inc. (now part of Medtronic)
Role: Principle Investigator
Work focused on neuropraxic canine modeling. Neuropraxic non-transection injury is most common in human thyroid surgery. Canine studies were performed outlining electrophysiologic changes in the recurrent laryngeal nerve with defined neural compressive trauma. This allowed the preliminary definition of electrophysiologic changes during human thyroid surgery suggestive of impending neural injury.
2007 Evidence-based otolaryngology book project
AAOHNS Clinical Scholars Grant
Role: Co- Principle Investigator (with Christopher Hartnick)
Text is a comprehensive literature review of available evidence based otolaryngologic treatment currently available. This project allowed definition of areas requiring additional evidence-based research work.
Past Unfunded Projects
Spectrally Encoded Laser Confocal Microscopy (SCM)
2013-2011 Principle Investigator
SCM, a noninvasive tissue image probe providing intraoperative histologic information without tissue resection was found equivalent to frozen section hematoxylin and eosin (ref # 36).
Evaluation of papillary cancer preop nodal disease with US and CT
2012-2014 Principle Investigator
Studied the utility of combined ultrasound and axial CT in preoperatively mapping nodal metastasis in papillary carcinoma patients finding it significantly more accurate than either modality alone (ref # 34).
Retrospective analysis of revision and staged thyroid cancer surgery at MEEI and MGH.
2013- 2015 Principle Investigator
Investigated the complication rate and thyroglobulin tumor marker response to revision thyroid cancer surgery in a large series of recurrent thyroid cancer patients (refs # 37 and 69).
Electrophysiologic analysis of SLN and Vagal nerve stimulation during thyroid surgery
2012 -2016 Principal Investigator
A series of studies of EMG electrophysiologic normative and neuropraxic data during human thyroid surgery focusing on the vagus, recurrent laryngeal nerve and external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve to allow for postoperative functional prediction (refs 29,35,38,40,42,49).
Vagal electrode intraoperative real time monitoring prospective two center study (MEEI and Halle Germany)
2013-2014 Co-Principal Investigator
Investigation of a novel continuous vagal monitoring modality that provides real time EMG data acquisition during thyroid surgery to facilitate the identification of impending neuropraxic injury (ref # 32 and 41).
Analysis of patients who are voice professionals undergoing thyroid surgery
2014-2015 Principal Investigator
Electrophysiologic and voice outcomes analysis voice professionals undergoing thyroid surgery (ref # 55).
Current Unfunded Projects
1. Recurrent nerve monitoring during human thyroid surgery
Start date 2008-expected end date 2015 Principal Investigator
A comparison of various electrode arrays during human thyroid surgery involving 1400 nerves at risk during thyroid surgical cases. IRB protocol approved by MEEI/MGH Human Studies Committee. Algorithm for electrode placement and criteria for intraoperative prediction normal vocal cord function have been generated. Triologic thesis on this data accepted 12/2015 (ref # 79).
2. Recurrent laryngeal nerve neural injury compression and traction - canine model
Start date 2008-present Principal Investigator
A canine model has been created to identify intraoperative electromyography correlates of recurrent laryngeal nerve neuropraxic injury (refs # 16,20,58,62,74).
3. Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve malignant invasion: preoperative radiographic prediction
Start date 2014 to present Principal Investigator
Data analysis underway comparing preoperative CT and ultrasound parameters of 72 invaded nerves vs 400 thyroid cancers without invasion to develop predictive preoperative invasion modeling.

The hospital is a 1100-bed facility performing 1200 thyroidectomy cases per year. I bring a surgical team (including operating room nurse, recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) monitoring audiologist, anesthesiologist, and an otolaryngology resident) for a 10-day visit to perform thyroid and parathyroid surgery, to demonstrate RLN monitoring techniques. We have initiated a biyearly program to visit with MEEI otolaryngology residents to increase their exposure to thyroid surgery.
1992-Present Harvard Medical School students and other U.S. and foreign medical students rotate through my clinics where I serve as clinical preceptor. Rotation duration ranges from 2 weeks to several months.
2005-Present MEEI Surgical OR observation program: Through the years, many visitors from within the US and around the world are frequent observers of thyroid /parathyroid surgical demonstration of neural monitoring techniques. We initiate in 7/2016 a Neural Monitoring Certification course which formalizes this training.

Clinical Innovations:
Recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring and management during thyroid surgery
My main research and clinical education/teaching focus is intraoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring during thyroid and parathyroid surgery (IONM). As a result of this experience I was the lead and second author on two publications on international neural monitoring guidelines (peer reviewed guidelines ref # 5 and 9) the first of which was the most cited article for the journal Laryngoscope for the year 2012. I have developed and published on canine and porcine electrophysiologic models of RLN injury (peer reviewed ref # 16, 19, 20, 57, 60, 61, 62, 64,74,78).
IONM’s acceptance has varied depending on the surgical subspecialty training. Rates of IONM use have increased over the last decade and is currently used, according to surgical survey data, in approximately 80% of thyroid surgery performed by head neck surgeons and over 50% of general surgeons in the US and is used more commonly by surgeons with higher surgical volume (Sturgeon et al. 2009, Singer, Rosenfeld et al. 2012, Ho 2013). Our recent survey of over 40 thyroid/endocrine fellowship trained surgeons (including those trained at MGH and MEEI) suggests fellows use IONM in nearly 100% of their own subsequent cases (ref # 59). Of note currently at MGH five of the seven endocrine surgeons currently use neural monitoring in all cases.
Through our human case series and our canine and porcine models, I have defined specific clinical surgical applications for neural monitoring and have published on a simple laryngeal palpation method of neural monitoring (ref # 8) and have more recently on detailed quantitative normative EMG intraoperative ranges that allow for prediction of postoperative normal vocal cord function ( ref # 29, 32,41,42,68,79). The superior laryngeal nerve is an additional important structure to preserve especially for professional voice users undergoing thyroidectomy. I recently published two of the first descriptions of the electrophysiology of the human superior laryngeal nerve (ref # 35 and 40) as well as a unique series of professional voice users undergoing thyroidectomy with IONM (ref # 55).
Currently German Association of Endocrine Surgery guidelines and the International Neural Monitoring Study Group both describe neural monitoring as in all cases of thyroid and parathyroid surgery (guidelines ref #5,9, Musholt, Clerici et al. 2011). Recently published American Academy of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery (AAOHNS) and American Head and Neck Society (AHNS) thyroid surgery guidelines (guidelines ref # 8,10) note that neural monitoring has clear utility in neural identification, reduction of transient nerve paralysis rates, prognostication of nerve function and avoidance of bilateral cord paralysis. Through my work on the 2015 ATA Thyroid Nodule and Thyroid Cancer Guidelines (guidelines ref #12) the main international guidelines for thyroid management seven new surgical recommendations relating to voice, laryngeal exam, neural management and IONM are for the first time part of the 2015 guidelines.
Laryngeal exam prior to thyroid surgery
I have published clinical research on the clinical utility of laryngeal examination information at the time of thyroid surgery (ref #9) and have brought this clinical message forward through lectures and writing in the US and abroad to both medical endocrinology and general surgical communities (other peer reviewed #6, 8). I have been an invited lecture and advisor to the Scandinavian Quality Registry regarding the incorporation of voice and laryngeal exam data fields in their registry which is the largest endocrine surgical outcome registry in the world including national endocrine surgical databanks of Sweden, Norway and Denmark. In the 2008 report of the Scandinavian Quality register I was honored to be described as “perhaps the most distinguished authority in the field [of neural injury in association with thyroid surgery]". I have had leadership roles in both AAOHNS and AHNS laryngeal exam guidelines at the time of thyroid surgery (guidelines ref # 8,10).

Narrative Report
My career is focused primarily on my surgical otolaryngology practice which is centered on thyroid and parathyroid surgery. I direct two divisions at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary (MEEI) including the General Otolaryngology Division. I founded and direct the Thyroid and Parathyroid Endocrine Surgical Division in 1995. I also since 1998 practice at Massachusetts General Hospital in the Division of Surgical Oncology Department of Surgery as a member of the MGH Endocrine Surgical Service. The principal accomplishments of my academic career have been in the realm of endocrine surgical education and collaborative endocrine surgical leadership as this new area of thyroid and parathyroid surgery has been forged for otolaryngologists. It is gratifying to have been elected President Elect of the American Academy of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery the main organization of head and neck surgeons in the US with membership of over 12,000 head and neck surgeons and with 1200 international members. I have also attempted to make valuable contributions through clinical investigation principally focused on intraoperative neural monitoring /prevention of neural complications during thyroid surgery, the perioperative laryngeal exam, and nodal metastasis detection and revision surgical treatment for well-differentiated thyroid cancer. Throughout my career this work has been collaboratively oriented to include and dovetail with general surgical and endocrine surgical colleagues both in the US and abroad through multiple organizational venues including the AAOHNS, AAES, ATA, AHNS, IAES, ACS, ESES and AACE.
During daily clinical practice I teach MEEI otolaryngology residents, and the MEEI Thyroid surgical fellow as well as MGH general surgical residents and fellows. I have published an endocrine surgical text entitled “Surgery of the Thyroid and Parathyroid Glands" in 2003, second edition in 2013 (a planned third edition 2017). This text is a comprehensive interdisciplinary guide to all aspects of thyroid and parathyroid surgery. The text is listed as required reading for fellows of the American Academy of Endocrine Surgeons (AAES), the premier general surgical organization focused on endocrine surgery in the United States. Additionally, I have written numerous thyroid and parathyroid surgical chapters for many of the main otolaryngology and general surgical texts and atlases. Associated with the MEEI Thyroid and Parathyroid Endocrine Surgical Division is the Thyroid and Parathyroid Surgical Fellowship also started in 2004, the first such otolaryngology-based endocrine surgical fellowship in the nation which just recently has been accredited by the American Head and Neck Society in 2014, one of only three such fellowships in the country. Through the years our Fellowship training program has included the general surgeons and otolaryngologists both from the US as well as Croatia, Brazil, Australia and Saudi Arabia and the UK. The model for our Fellowship has been used as a model for the creation of a similar Fellowship program at Johns Hopkins.
An important area of clinical work has been thyroid cancer nodal imaging detection and treatment. We have recently published on our results of a novel ultrasound and CT scan combined radiographic algorithm for papillary carcinoma patients with nodal disease and analyzed its efficacy (ref # 34). The role of axial CT scanning preoperatively in patients with thyroid cancer has been incorporated into the recently published ATA Surgical Affairs Committee preop imaging guidelines report as well as the recently published ATA Thyroid Nodule Thyroid Cancer Guidelines 2015 (guidelines ref# 11,12). I have also co-authored the ATA central neck papillary definitions task force statement which defines central neck surgery for thyroid cancer surgical treatment and chaired the ATA carcinoma nodal treatment consensus white paper which for the first time stratified the thyroid cancer patient’s N positive neck into microscopic and macroscopic nodal disease with significant divergent prognostic implications (guidelines ref # 3,7). Implicit in this work is emerging role of radiographically mapping the neck preoperatively which allows for detection preoperatively of macroscopic nodal disease which warrants surgical treatment.
Local teaching efforts have centered primarily on the development of the annual Harvard CME course “Surgery of the Thyroid and Parathyroid Glands" which I founded in 1996. It has received superior evaluations placing it in the top 10% of Harvard CME courses. I have also been active on the national education front through the American Academy of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery where I have served on the Board of Directors as the Coordinator of International Affairs overseeing the all international affairs for the American Academy of Otolaryngology including all AAO humanitarian activities, oversight of the International Steering, Humanitarian and Pan-American Committees, 15 appointed International Regional Advisors as well as the AAO international traveling Fellowship program. I have also chaired the American Academy of Otolaryngology Endocrine Surgery Subcommittee which under my guidance evolved into a full free standing committee which has been awarded “model Committee” status recently. It is gratifying to now be elected President Elect of the AAOHNS. I have also been active in the American College of Surgeons and the American Head and Neck Society and have presented multiple presentations, instructional courses, and chaired panels for all these organizations on topics ranging from recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring, invasive thyroid cancer, treatment of benign thyroid disease and hyperparathyroidism. I have lectured at the United Nations on the Chernobyl disaster. I have been invited to serve on the Executive Steering Committee of the World Congress on Thyroid Cancer (WCTC) along with seven other colleagues from Mayo Clinic, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, M.D. Anderson and the University of Toronto. This interdisciplinary Congress initially was given initially in 2009 again in 2013 and resulted in over 1000 registrants from 70 countries. I will Co-Chair the WCTC in 2017 in Boston.
I have been an invited lecturer on voice preservation and the importance of laryngeal exam and IONM at the Mayo Clinic, MD Anderson Cancer Center, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and Johns Hopkins Hospital and have been honored to give the following named lectureships around the world on these topics including: the UK Royal Society of Medicine Invited speaker on Thyroid Surgery and Voice, the George Choa Visiting Professor Lectureship Dept. of Surgery, Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, University of Hong Kong, the European Society of Endocrine Surgery Charles Proye Lecture, Gothenburg, the British Association of Endocrine and Thyroid Surgeons, British Journal of Surgery Lecture Cardiff, UK, the Anisio Costa Toledo Guest Invited Keynote lecturer on Thyroid and Voice, Sao Paolo Brazil , the European Association of Endocrine Surgeons Invited State of the Art Lecturer on IONM in Thyroid Cancer, the Annual Morley Binstock University of Toronto/ Mt Sinai Hospital Lectureship in Head and Neck Oncology, the 2014 Johns Hopkins Thyroid Tumor Center Visiting Professor of Endocrinology and Metabolism and William Lees Distinguished Lecturer, the Robert C. Hickey Lectureship, MD Anderson Cancer Center and recently the Tulane Michael Debakey Lecture at Tulane.
Throughout all of my clinical and educational work, I have endeavored to build bridges through collaborative work between otolaryngologists and general surgeons. This is born out of my daily activities at both MGH and MEEI. Within my own thyroid surgical fellowship I have, in fact, trained both otolaryngologists and general surgeons. As a culmination of this ongoing activity over a number of years, I was instrumental in opening up the American Association of Endocrine Surgeons, the premier organization of general surgeons focused on endocrine surgery, to otolaryngology membership for the first time in their organizational history. I am also the first otolaryngologist to be granted membership and elected to the governing council of the International Association of Endocrine Surgeons. I have also founded the Farndon International Fund for young third world surgeons to attend endocrine surgical meetings within of the International Association of Endocrine Surgeons. I have also collaborated with medical endocrine groups and am on the editorial board of the American Thyroid Association’s journal Thyroid and the American Academy of Clinical Endocrinology’s (AACE) journal Endocrine Practice. I am the first Otolaryngologist to serve as Chair of the Endocrine Surgery Committee of AACE. Within the American Thyroid Association, I have chaired the Surgical Affairs Committee nodal metastasis working group, and chaired the Development Committee. I have been elected to the executive board of the American Thyroid Association serving as the only surgeon and first otolaryngologist officer for the organization as Treasurer.
Throughout my career I have been motivated by international educational needs and have spent significant effort on international educational outreach. I have spoken at numerous international meetings and have co-directed major surgical courses in St. Petersburg Russia (2003), Rome Italy (2006) and the monitoring international congresses in Zürich Switzerland (2005), Brussels Belgium (2007) and Varese Italy (2011, 2014). I have through this travel setup neural monitoring units in endocrine surgical departments around the world including St. Petersburg Russia, Kiev and the Chernobyl region of the Ukraine and Guangzhou, China. I have also served as an advisor in developing the national thyroid cancer guidelines in Costa Rica in 2009. Recently in 2012 I served as leader of a Surgical Goiter Mission to Migori Kenya Africa through Kenya Relief Aid organization. I lead 3 MEEI Head and Neck Surgeons, MEEI resident and nurse performing 25 surgical cases in 3 days, including 18 goiters with neural monitoring. More recently I led a team to a mountainous iodine deficient region of rural India to perform goiter surgery in Chikhaldara and Nagpur India.
I believe my curriculum vita highlights my clinical and educational leadership. The work detailed, I believe, suggests a sustained national and international reputation within the thyroid and parathyroid surgical field with special emphasis on thyroid cancer treatment and neural monitoring and voice preservation during thyroid surgery.
