Feng AL, Holcomb AJ, Abt NB, et al. - Researchers conducted this retrospective chart review to identify factors that may anticipate the need for feeding tubes in patients undergoing transoral robotic surgery (TORS) in the perioperative setting. Between October 2016 and November 2019, a retrospective series of patients undergoing TORS for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) was identified at a single tertiary academic center. In total, 138 patients were involved in the study. Multiple logistic regression did not show any significant predictive variables affecting perioperative feeding tube placement following TORS for OPSCC. After TORS for early-stage OPSCC, feeding tubes are rarely required. Patients who receive appropriate multidisciplinary planning and care may be able to avoid the need for feeding tube placement following TORS for OPSCC.
