UNDERSTANDING YOUR TREATMENT
Reach selected throat tumours through the mouth
Transoral robotic surgery allows a specialist surgeon to reach selected tumours in the throat through the mouth. The surgeon controls the instruments throughout the operation. Assessment considers the tumour’s position and how treatment may affect swallowing and speech.
01
Access through the mouth
Suitable tumours can be reached without a large external incision for the tumour removal.
02
Care for swallowing and nutrition
Your team plans support for eating, drinking and recovery.
03
Specialist head and neck follow-up
Review your pathology results and the next steps with your treating team.
