Endoscopic 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 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...
متن کاملTransoral robotic assisted nasopharyngectomy via a lateral palatal flap approach.
INTRODUCTION Nasopharyngectomy has been established as a feasible curative treatment for salvaging recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma after radical radiotherapy. A large case series has also shown that the overall survival rate in nasopharyngectomy is comparable with reirradiation in small recurrent tumors. However, reirradiation has significant late complications from radiotherapy, and surgica...
متن کاملTransoral resection of thyroid cancer metastasis to lateral retropharyngeal nodes.
BACKGROUND Lymph node metastasis from differentiated thyroid carcinoma may occur outside of the basins at greatest risk of spread, such as the lateral retropharyngeal lymph nodes. The extensive surgery of traditional approaches to the retropharyngeal space are rarely justified in the treatment of metastatic differentiated thyroid cancer. Therefore, a less invasive surgical approach is advantage...
متن کاملTransoral robotic surgery to resect skull base tumors via transpalatal and lateral pharyngeal approaches.
Methods: The da Vinci Robotic Surgical System (Si) was used for complete resection of four skull base tumors. Two pleomorphic adenomas in the parapharyngeal space, one pleomorphic adenoma in the infratemporal fossa and one metastatic papillary thyroid cancer node in the high retropharyneal nodal basin were resected. A transpalatal approach was used to access the infratemporal fossa (n=1) and re...
