Resumen

Transoral Robotic Surgery (TORS) is increasingly used for various conditions, yet its success and failure remain underexplored. In this multicenter study, we assessed 220 TORS interventions across 211 patients. Success criteria differed by condition, including tumor identification for CUP, resection margins for malignancies, and symptom improvement for benign cases like OSA and chronic lingual tonsillitis. Predictors of success varied, with factors such as patient comorbidity, tumor characteristics, and demographics playing roles. Conversely, failure predictors encompassed postoperative complications and pain, linked to patient health and demographics. These insights into TORS outcomes may aid in patient selection and counseling across different conditions, informing clinical practice and enhancing patient care.
