Abstract

Hypopharyngeal cancer have shown poor prognosis though various treatment modalities were developed for several decades. Therefore current trend in managing hypopharyngeal cancer is organ preservation therapy to improve patient's quality of life. Recently, surgery via robotic surgical system in genitourinary surgery improved minimal invasive technique and reduced morbidity dramatically. Hypopharyngeal cancer treatment using Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) in treating lesions of hypopharynx could reduce the morbidity and achieve organ preservation.
