Robotic surgery for oropharyngeal cancer

Oropharyngeal cancer affects structures like the tonsils and base of the tongue, often linked to HPV infection. Nasopharyngeal cancer, arising behind the nasal cavity, is more common in specific genetic and environmental contexts. Minimally invasive robotic surgery is frequently used for early-stage tumours, reducing recovery time while preserving function. 

Combined approaches, including surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, are necessary in advanced cases. Speech and swallowing rehabilitation play a crucial role in post-treatment recovery. Continuous monitoring with imaging and endoscopy ensures early detection of recurrence, optimizing long-term outcomes.
