Adoption of otolaryngologist-head neck surgeons toward transoral robotic surgery: An international survey. Laryngoscope investigative otolaryngology Lechien, J. R., Haddad, L., Holsinger, F. C., Mendelsohn, A. H., Hans, S. 2023; 8 (1): 95-102Abstract
To investigate perception, adoption and awareness of otolaryngologist-head neck surgeons (OTO-HNS) toward transoral robotic surgery (TORS).An online survey was sent to 1383 OTO-HNS on the perception, adoption and awareness about TORS to members of many otolaryngological societies. The following aspects were assessed: TORS access; training; awareness/perception; indications and advantages/barriers to TORS practice. The responses were presented for the entire cohort and regarding the TORS experience of OTO-HNS.A total of 359 completed the survey (26%); including 115 TORS surgeons. TORS-surgeons carry out a mean number of 34.4 annual TORS procedures. The primary barriers to TORS were the cost of the robot (74%) and disposable accessories (69%), and the lack of training opportunity (38%). The 3D view of the surgical field (66%), the postoperative quality of life outcomes (63%) and the shorter hospital stay (56%) were the most important benefits of TORS. TORS-surgeons believed more frequently that TORS is indicated for cT1-T2 oropharyngeal and supraglottic cancers than non-TORS surgeons (p?
