Robotic surgery is increasingly used in otolaryngology (ENT), particularly for complex head and neck procedures. It offers various advantages, including limited postoperative pain, excellent aesthetic results, better visualization in the surgical field, enhanced dexterity due to movement adjustment by the robotic system, and minimal complications and hospital stay. However, robotic systems' higher cost and limited availability are a burden for clinical applications.
