Outcome of transoral robotic surgery for stage I-II oropharyngeal cancer.

European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery
Traditionally T1-2N0 oropharyngeal carcinoma is treated with a single treatment modality, being either radiotherapy or surgery. Currently, minimally invasive surgery, such as transoral robotic surgery (TORS), is gaining popularity. The aim of this st...

ADVANCEMENTS IN MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY: A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF ROBOTIC SURGERY, ENDOSCOPIC TECHNIQUES, AND NATURAL ORIFICE TRANSLUMENAL ENDOSCOPIC SURGERY.

Georgian medical news
The term "Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery" (NOTES) defines a surgical approach that leverages the body's natural orifices to access the abdominal cavity, presenting a patient-centric perspective by highlighting its potential to elimin...

Endoscopy-assisted magnetic navigation of biohybrid soft microrobots with rapid endoluminal delivery and imaging.

Science robotics
High-precision delivery of microrobots at the whole-body scale is of considerable importance for efforts toward targeted therapeutic intervention. However, vision-based control of microrobots, to deep and narrow spaces inside the body, remains a chal...

What robot for tomorrow and what improvement can we expect?

Current opinion in urology
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The purpose of this review is to summarize the status of robotic surgery currently, contextualizing the advances and improvements we can expect in the immediate future. Robotics continues to demonstrate increased utility and expans...

Transoral Fully Robotic Dissection of a Parapharyngeal Hemangioma.

The Journal of craniofacial surgery
Soft tissue robotics found its trigger for success in minimally invasive surgery. The minimization of the surgical damage is more obvious as the surgical alternative is more aggressive. In head and neck surgery, potential sequelae are both functional...

Transoral robotic surgery alone for oropharyngeal cancer: quality-of-life outcomes.

JAMA otolaryngology-- head & neck surgery
IMPORTANCE: Few studies have examined quality-of-life (QOL) outcomes in patients who undergo transoral robotic surgery (TORS) alone (ie, without adjuvant radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy).

Oropharyngeal stenosis after transoral robotic lingual tonsillectomy.

The Journal of craniofacial surgery
Transoral robotic-assisted lingual tonsillectomy seems to confirm good tolerability with efficient results in both adult and pediatric populations, and the complication rate is usually dependent on the specific procedure and not related to the use of...

Flexible endoscopic robot.

Minimally invasive therapy & allied technologies : MITAT : official journal of the Society for Minimally Invasive Therapy
Natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) is a novel surgical procedure during which abdominal operations can be performed with an endoscope passed through a natural orifice through an internal incision in the stomach, vagina, bladder o...

Next-generation robotic surgery--from the aspect of surgical robots developed by industry.

Minimally invasive therapy & allied technologies : MITAT : official journal of the Society for Minimally Invasive Therapy
At present, much of the research conducted worldwide focuses on extending the ability of surgical robots. One approach is to extend robotic dexterity. For instance, accessibility and dexterity of the surgical instruments remains the largest issue for...
