Transoral Robotic Surgery Total Laryngectomy

224270?imgType=4

Objective: The aim of our study is to demonstrate our technique for performing transoral robotic surgical total laryngectomy (TORS-TL) with the use of the da Vinci robotic system. Materials and Methods: We provide a comprehensive description of the TORS-TL operative techniques. Two fresh-frozen human cadavers were selected after ethics approval to describe the appropriate step-by-step surgical resection. We adopted a 5-step procedure that was later applied to 2 of our patients. The first patient presented initially with a squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in the laryngeal glottis area. A lack of clinical response to initial treatment by chemoradiotherapy led to the decision of performing salvage TL surgery. The second patient had a previous history of head and neck SCC (HNSCC); he had no recurrence of his primary tumor but suffered significantly from postoperative breathing and swallowing difficulties due to severe laryngeal incompetence. Results: TORS-TL was successfully performed in all cases. The operative time for the cadavers was approximately 65 and 55 min, respectively. It was significantly longer for the patients, 210 and 235 min, respectively, despite the fact that exactly the same steps were followed throughout all procedures. There were no intra- or postoperative complications or surgical morbidity related to the use of the da Vinci system. Conclusion: TORS-SL for SCC was performed in a safe, reliable, and smooth manner and was shown to be successful in treating our patients. We thus believe that our step-by-step surgical technique for TORS-SL is efficient and reproducible.
