Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is a type of cancer that affects the tissues in the head and neck region. It can be a challenging disease to treat, but advances in surgery have made the process much more successful. Over the years, surgeons have developed new techniques and technologies that allow for more precise and effective removal of cancerous cells. This has led to better outcomes for patients and a higher likelihood of long-term survival.
Some of the key advances in surgery for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma include minimally invasive techniques, precision-image-guided surgery, and the use of robots to assist with surgery. These innovations have helped reduce complications, speed up recovery times for patients, and improve adequate resections.
Overall, the field of surgery for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is rapidly advancing, and patients can expect to benefit from these improvements in the years to come.
In this Special Issue, we aim to collect original research articles and review articles to present and discuss data on surgical advances in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
