Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) has been used as a novel procedure for the resection of laryngopharyngeal cancers with promising outcomes. There are several studies proposing the benefit of combining TORS with a carbon dioxide (CO2 ) laser in resecting upper aerodigestive tract tumors. The purpose of this study was to illustrate transoral robot-assisted carbon dioxide laser surgery (TORS-L) for hypopharyngeal cancers.
