Article Synopsis
- Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) and transoral laser microsurgery (TLM) show promising outcomes for HPV-related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, with TORS potentially offering better tumor margin clearance.
- This study aimed to assess how the surgical method (TORS vs. TLM) impacts early postoperative swallowing function, feeding tube usage, and quality of life in patients.
- Findings indicated that patients who underwent TORS had significantly higher rates of nasogastric tube insertion compared to those who had TLM, with TLM showing slightly better overall quality of life scores, though the effect size was small.
