Oncologic outcomes and patient-reported quality of life in patients with oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma treated with definitive transoral robotic surgery versus definitive chemoradiation

Highlights • CRT and definitive TORS offer similar oncologic outcomes in early stage OPSCC. • TORS resulted in improved short and long-term saliva-related QOL compared to CRT. • Use of adjuvant therapy after TORS lead to worse saliva and taste-related QOL. • Use of TORS and N classification were sig...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • CRT and definitive TORS offer similar oncologic outcomes in early stage OPSCC. • TORS resulted in improved short and long-term saliva-related QOL compared to CRT. • Use of adjuvant therapy after TORS lead to worse saliva and taste-related QOL. • Use of TORS and N classification were significant predictors of saliva-related QOL.
