The retromolar trigone is a challenging transoral surgical site due to the difficulty of visualization. Our aim is to report a new technique of transoral robotic resection of retromolar trigone tumours. We present three patients with retromolar trigone tumours with pathological diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma who underwent successful transoral robotic resection. Robotic retromolar trigone resection and concurrent supraomohyoid neck dissections were performed in all patients without any complication. In conclusion, transoral robotic surgery is a safe and feasible technique for resection of malignant retromolar trigone tumours with minimal complications and favourable outcomes.
由于视野受限,磨牙后三角是一个具有挑战性的经口手术部位。我们的目的是报告一种经口机器人切除磨牙后三角肿瘤的新技术。我们介绍了3例经病理诊断为鳞状细胞癌的磨牙后三角肿瘤患者,他们均成功接受了经口机器人切除术。所有患者均接受了机器人辅助磨牙后三角切除术及同期肩胛舌骨上颈清扫术,无任何并发症。总之,经口机器人手术是一种安全可行的技术,用于切除磨牙后三角恶性肿瘤,并发症少,效果良好。
