متن کاملEndoscopic transoral oropharyngectomy using laparoscopic surgical instruments.
BACKGROUND Recently, several transoral approaches for minimally invasive surgery have been developed for oropharyngeal cancer. However, all approaches have certain disadvantages. Therefore, we built and examined new surgical environments for improving the situation. METHODS Endoscopic transoral resection using a pharyngeal retractor or distending laryngoscope, rigid videoendoscope, and laparo...
متن کامل[Outcomes following transoral resection of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES The aim of our study was to evaluate outcomes of a minimally invasive approach, using transoral surgery (TOS) as the primary treatment for oropharyngeal carcinoma. METHODS We reviewed 43 previously untreated patients with oropharyngeal carcinoma, who were treated with TOS. Distribution of the primary tumor site was: tonsil (52%), soft palate (23%), base of the tong...
متن کاملComparison of oncologic and functional outcomes after transoral robotic lateral oropharyngectomy versus conventional surgery for T1 to T3 tonsillar cancer.
BACKGROUND We performed transoral robotic surgery (TORS) or conventional surgery via a transoral or mandibulotomy approach in patients with tonsillar cancer and prospectively analyzed the oncologic outcomes and functional recovery of the 3 groups. METHODS Between May 2008 and October 2011, 57 patients were enrolled in this prospective study. RESULTS Although there was no significant differe...
