Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to gather insights from international experts on the efficacy and challenges of two minimally invasive surgical techniques, transoral laser microsurgery (TLM) and transoral robotic surgery (TORS), for treating supraglottic laryngeal tumors.
  • A survey was conducted with 27 head and neck surgeons, finding that TLM generally took less setup time compared to TORS, although both techniques faced concerns about bleeding during surgery, particularly with TLM.
  • Experts viewed TLM and TORS as largely equal in effectiveness, but noted that TORS offered better control over bleeding and improved visibility during the procedure.
