Written by some of the most experienced surgeons in the United States, Contemporary Transoral Surgery for Primary Head and Neck Cancer is a distinct resource for surgeons and oncologists interested in transoral surgery. This text gives readers current, thoroughly illustrated, and data-driven information on all aspects of transoral surgery. The authors are pioneers in the field, having performed thousands of transoral surgery cases and publishing and lecturing extensively on the subject.

Opening with the history of transoral surgery, the book goes on to address endoscopic anatomy, general techniques, as well as tips for analysis and pathologic considerations, and provides comprehensive coverage of surgeries for the head and neck subsites. Also included are valuable chapters on surgery for chemoradiation failures, reconstruction techniques for surgical defects, and oncologic and functional outcomes using open surgery, chemoradiation, and transoral surgery. To supplement the text and provide additional visualization of the concepts described, readers can access a companion website that contains video footage of transoral surgery techniques for various head and neck primary cancer sites.

Through this highly relevant text, physicians not only learn the technical aspects of transoral surgery for head and neck cancer, but also its importance in the treatment of these patients.

Reviews

"This is a useful book on the increasingly important transoral approach to tumours of the head and neck. The authors, who are well known US experts in the field, have produced a colourful textbook with current, well-illustrated, information on all aspects of transoral surgery... Excellent artistic illustrations and intraoperative pictures provide a great perspective and appreciation of the inside-out anatomical concept. The importance of instrumentation, including laser microsurgery and robotic surgery, is heavily emphasised throughout... 

The applications of transoral surgery to all sites of the upper aerodigestive tract are presented in an evidence-based manner with an adequate number of references for further reading... 

The print quality is good... and the interior boasts fine glossy paper, with high resolution pictures throughout. Readers can access a companion website, with video footage of transoral surgery techniques for various head and neck primary cancer sites. 

Overall, this is a good textbook on the technical aspects of transoral surgery. It is easy to read with a good explanation of the anatomical and functional aspects of this increasingly popular approach."
—Mr. Panos Asimakopoulos MRCS, ST5 ENT and Mr. Kim Ah-See MD FRCS FRCS(ORL-HNS), ENT Consultant, Aberdeen Royal infirmary, in the Journal of Laryngology and Otology (2015)

"The book has excellent illustrations and operative images that should be useful to those relearning inside-out anatomy. Included with the book is access to videos of transoral surgical techniques. The strength of this book is its focus on the technical aspects of transoral surgery. 

Overall, this is an excellent resource on transoral surgical techniques, and it should quickly become the definitive resource on transoral laser microsurgery. 4 Stars!"
—​​​​​​​John David Cramer, M.D. (Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine), in Doody's Review Service (2014)​​​​​​​

"Overall this is an excellent primer textbook for the trainee or clinician embarking on a surgical career which includes TOS procedures for the management of patients with head and neck cancer."
—​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Prof Patrick J Bradley, MBA, FRCS, Emeritus Honorary Professor of Head and Neck Oncologic Surgery, The University of Nottingham, in ENT & Audiology News (March/April 2015)​​​​​​​
