Robotic Surgery for ENT Cancer Cases

The case of ENT cancer may not be as widely known as other types of cancer, which can result in death, but ENT cancer is no less dangerous for the health of the human body. Therefore, the drug and how to treat it are crucial to know.

Methods of treatment using robotic surgery services have been found to simplify the surgical process of removing the source of the disease. This technology is called robotic surgery; not all hospitals can implement it.

RSU Bunda Jakarta is the only hospital that can carry out robotic surgery for this type of head and neck cancer. With experts and machines with modern robotic technology, surgery can be performed better, and the results are more accurate with a reasonable cure rate and shorter treatment times.

ENT Cancer (Ear, Nose, Throat)

Ear, nose, and throat cancer attacks these parts, especially the soft tissues, causing pain and lumps.

Most are soft but can occur in the long term and continue to grow. To avoid high severity, recognize the symptoms and the variation in severity.

1. Recognize the Symptoms

ENT cancer has 6 characteristics that can be recognized, namely:

• Lumps in the neck can occur in certain parts, which will show what the cause is. For example, swelling in the front lower neck occurs because the thyroid gland is attacked.
• Nosebleeds, especially if the bleeding continues, are small in amount and have a specific odor.
• Swelling or ulcers in the mouth.
• Hoarseness.
• Difficulty swallowing
• Pain or blockage in the ear.

2. Grades and Variations

ENT cancer can occur for various reasons and can progress to multiple levels of the disease depending on the severity. It could just be a benign tumor that can be removed by surgery.

It could also have been quite severe and spread to several places. Therefore, detecting and treating it early while the disease is not too severe is imperative.
