Cancer treatment is a disease that occurs when genetic changes disrupt the normal growth of cells. The cells start to grow uncontrollably and form a mass of tissues called tumors. These tumors can also spread to other parts of the body. So consult for tors surgical oncologist in Kanpur
Transoral robotic surgery is a minimally invasive state of the art technology used for operating head and neck tumours present in areas difficult to access behind the throat and skull base.
In our institute we use the da vinci xi robotic system for performing the surgeries. The Da Vinci Surgical System consists of three components: a surgeon’s console, a patient-side robotic cart equipped with four arms, and a high-definition three-dimensional vision cart.
Articulating surgical instruments are mounted on the robotic arms, which are introduced into the upper aerodigestive tract through the mouth of the patient and manipulated remotely with master robot manipulators from the surgeon’s console.
1. Oropharyngeal tumours (Tumours of tonsil , base of tongue - most commonly)
2. Laryngeal tumours ( Tumours of voice box)
3. Hypopharyngeal tumours ( Lower part of throat above the voice box)
4. Parapharyngeal space tumours
5. Skull base tumours
6. Nasopharyngeal tumours ( tumours behind the nose)
