Transoral robotic surgery-based therapy in patients with stage III-IV oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma

TORS-based therapy showed excellent oncological and functional outcomes for treatment of stage III-IV OPSCC. For advanced T stage OPSCC, clear margins were obtained using TORS-based therapy and patients with clear margins showed good local control. Risk stratification of patients based on pathological information obtained after surgery and decision about additional treatment based on the information helped improve OS and DSS of OPSCC patients.
