ABSTRACT

In many surgical specialities, e.g., visceral surgery or urology, the use of robotic assistance is widely regarded as standard for many interventions. By contrast, in European otorhinolaryngology, robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) is rarely conducted. This is because currently available robotic systems are not adequately adapted to the restricted space and partially difficult access to surgical f ields in the head and neck area. Furthermore, RAS is associated with high costs at present. In some Anglo-American regions, robot-assisted surgery is already used regularly for different indications, particularly in transoral surgery of oropharyngeal tumors. Several feasibility studies demonstrate multiple fields of application for RAS in head and neck surgery. For standard use, the robotic systems and surgical instruments need to be reduced in size and adapted to application in the head and neck area.
