Surgery with transoral robotic surgery (TORS) offers significant advantages compared with traditional open surgical approaches and potentially minimizes the long-term side effects of organ preservation therapy with chemoradiation. Angled telescopes and wristed instruments allow visualization and access to areas of the pharynx that are difficult to reach with line-of-sight instrumentation. Although the application of TORS in head and neck surgery has expanded considerably, there are still only limited data available on the postoperative complications and their management. As further data become available, it is likely that further risk factors and treatment strategies will become available.
