Summary

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

Interventions

PROCEDURE

transoral robotic surgery

Undergo TORS using the Da Vinci Robotic Surgical System

PROCEDURE

quality of life assessment

After surgery regular clinical assessments will be scheduled to see how the patient is doing. Patients will be asked to answer a quality of life assessment as part of the study. If patients are unable to come to the Ohio State University Medical Center for a physician appointment they will be contacted via phone or mailed a questionnaire to complete.
