How Transoral Robotic/Endoscopic Resection + Neck Dissection is performed
This procedure can be performed via transoral robotic or endoscopic instruments for resection, with hemostasis and soft tissue reconstruction as needed. Usually under general anesthesia, the surgical field is exposed through a mouth opener, and the tonsil/pharyngeal wall lesion is gradually resected to obtain a safe margin; selective neck dissection is performed through a cervical incision at the same time, and sent for pathological evaluation. Postoperative monitoring of airway, bleeding, and swallowing function, with drainage or temporary nutritional support as appropriate, aiming to remove the lesion and provide a basis for subsequent comprehensive treatment. The above is general health information, not medical advice; the specific plan is subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocol.
