The Role of Robotic Surgery in Benign Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery: A Systematic Review of the Literature. A Systematic Review of the Literature
Main Article Content
Abstract
The role of robotic-assisted surgery has increased exponentially in many surgical specialities over recent years. However, common usage within otolaryngology still appears limited. We aim to explore the alternative uses for robot-assisted surgery in benign otolaryngology, head and neck pathologies.
A systematic review of the literature was performed by searching electronic databases and references libraries.
2485 papers were identified through our search. 96 studies met our inclusion criteria. Our results are categorized and displayed in table format.
There are multiple novel adaptations of robotic-assisted surgery being performed across the world in benign otolaryngology, head and neck pathologies. Exciting advances in technology and availability will expand this scope even further in the near future.
