Transoral Robotic Surgery in Treating Patients with Benign or Malignant Tumors of the Head and Neck

Description

This pilot clinical trial studies transoral robotic surgery (TORS) in treating patients with benign or malignant tumors of the head and neck. TORS is a less invasive type of surgery for head and neck cancer and may have fewer side effects and improve recovery

Conditions

Recurrent Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Recurrent Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Recurrent Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Hypopharynx, Recurrent Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Larynx, Recurrent Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lip and Oral Cavity, Recurrent Verrucous Carcinoma of the Larynx, Recurrent Verrucous Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage 0 Hypopharyngeal Cancer, Stage 0 Laryngeal Cancer, Stage 0 Lip and Oral Cavity Cancer, Stage I Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage I Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage I Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Hypopharynx, Stage I Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage I Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lip and Oral Cavity, Stage I Verrucous Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage I Verrucous Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage II Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage II Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage II Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Hypopharynx, Stage II Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage II Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lip and Oral Cavity, Stage II Verrucous Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage II Verrucous Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage III Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage III Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage III Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Hypopharynx, Stage III Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage III Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lip and Oral Cavity, Stage III Verrucous Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage III Verrucous Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage IV Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Hypopharynx, Stage IVA Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage IVA Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage IVA Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage IVA Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lip and Oral Cavity, Stage IVA Verrucous Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage IVA Verrucous Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage IVB Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage IVB Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage IVB Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage IVB Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lip and Oral Cavity, Stage IVB Verrucous Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage IVB Verrucous Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage IVC Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage IVC Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Stage IVC Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage IVC Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lip and Oral Cavity, Stage IVC Verrucous Carcinoma of the Larynx, Stage IVC Verrucous Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity, Tongue Cancer

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Patient must present with indications for diagnostic or therapeutic approaches for benign and/or malignant diseases of the oral cavity or laryngopharynx (including the neoplastic lesions of the tongue, tongue base, retromolar trigone, tonsils, palate, posterior and lateral pharynx, glottic, supraglottic and subglottic larynx)
  • * Patients must have adequate transoral exposure of the oral cavity and laryngopharynx for TORS instrumentation
  • * Written informed consent and/or Consent waiver by institutional review board (IRB)
  • * Unexplained fever and/or untreated, active infection
  • * Patient pregnancy
  • * Previous head and neck surgery that would preclude transoral/robotic procedures. This is at the investigator's discretion. This is not an exclusion criterion for the non-surgical arm.
  • * The presence of medical conditions contraindicating general anesthesia or transoral surgical approaches
  • * Inability to grant informed consent
  • * INTRAOPERATIVE
