Popis: | PURPOSE: With the development of minimal invasive procedure, trans-oral robotic surgery (TORS) is expanding in the field of ENT. Most reviews focus on oropharyngeal and laryngeal (supra-glottic) localization. We report here the feasibility and outcomes of TORS hypopharyngectomy (TORSH) for selected patients with hypopharyngeal tumor. METHODS: Between September 2009 and July 2017, 22 patients, retrospectively included, underwent TORSH with curative intent. RESULTS: From 22 successful hypopharyngectomy, no conversion to open procedure was needed. Three patients (13%) presented a post-operative bleeding and were managed by surgical revision. No fistula was encountered. The 3-year overall survival and disease-specific survival rates were 54 and 92%, respectively. Patients started oral feeding after an average of 7 days. Naso-gastric feeding tubes were removed after a median period of 16 days. Two patients (9%) needed a transient gastrostomy (< 1 year). Three patients (13%) received a transient tracheostomy (< 2 months). Median hospitalization stay was 13 days. CONCLUSIONS: TORSH is a safe technique. Patients' outcomes are favorable and the post-operative morbidity is reduced compared to open neck approach. Hospitalization length and safe swallowing time are reduced. |
