The role of robotic surgery in the field of oncology has been widely described, in particular for the tumours of the oropharynx and larynx, but its efficacy for benign pathology is inconsistent.
An exhaustive review of the English literature on trans-oral robotic surgery (TORS) for benign conditions was performed using PubMed electronic database.
The research was performed in March 2019 and yielded more than eight hundred articles, with 103 meeting the inclusion criteria and considered in the present study.
The application of TORS for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome seems to be particularly well documented. Additionally, there exists a special interest in its use where high precision in limited anatomic space is required. There are still different structural and economic limitations for the application of TORS, however, the progressive technologic innovations and the increasing adoption of robotic surgery seem to encourage the uptake of this technique.
机器人手术在肿瘤学领域的作用已得到广泛描述,尤其是在口咽和喉部肿瘤方面,但其对良性病变的疗效并不一致。
使用PubMed电子数据库对关于经口机器人手术(TORS)治疗良性疾病的英文文献进行了详尽综述。
该研究于2019年3月进行,共检索到八百多篇文章,其中103篇符合纳入标准并纳入本研究。
TORS在治疗阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合征方面的应用似乎有特别充分的文献记载。此外,在需要在有限解剖空间内实现高精度的情况下,对其使用也有特别的兴趣。然而,TORS的应用仍存在不同的结构和经济限制,不过,技术的不断进步创新以及机器人手术越来越广泛的应用似乎在推动这项技术的采用。
