Abstract
Program Description: Transoral and transcervical surgical treatment of larynx and pharynx cancer has been done for over a century. Despite substantial technical innovations such as enhanced imaging, innovative laser technologies, and robotics guidance systems, radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy dominate the treatment strategy at many institutions. In part, this is due to limited familiarity with recent novel surgical advancements. Outcomes data on transoral microsurgical management for oropharynx and larynx cancer will be presented. Robotics and laser photoangiolysis of laryngeal cancer are two emerging technologies that can enhance endoscopic surgery. In addition, a new airway reconstructive technique using aortic homograft will be presented, which facilitates wide-field transoral-transcervical partial laryngectomy. These innovative methods can potentially be integrated and greatly enhance the surgical treatment of these diseases. This miniseminar will highlight advantages and disadvantages of these techniques and update the attendees on relevant state-ofthe-art procedural innovations.
