1. TORS: Transoral Robotic Surgery (TORS) is a minimally invasive surgical technique that uses robotic technology to remove tumors from the mouth, throat, and voice box through the natural opening of the mouth—without external incisions.
2. Robotic Thyroid Surgery (RABIT Technique): Robotic Thyroid Surgery is a minimally invasive, scarless technique for removing part or all of the thyroid gland using advanced robotic technology. Same technique can be used to address thyroglossal cyst, parathyroid, central and lateral compartment neck dissection
3. Robotic Parotidectomy Surgery: The PRIA TECHNIQUE (Parotidectomy by Robotic Infraclavicular Approach) is a minimally invasive robotic surgery to remove parotid gland tumors. It uses robotic arms and small incisions below the collarbone to access the gland, allowing for precise dissection and preservation of the facial nerve while avoiding a visible facial scar.
4. Single Incision Commando Surgery (SICS): Single Incision Commando Surgery is an advanced approach to treat oral and head-and-neck cancers through one incision, instead of multiple cuts. This technique allows surgeons to remove the tumor & perform neck dissection through the same incision. It offers improved cosmetic outcomes, reduced post-op pain & faster recovery.
5. Patient Specific Implant (PSI): Patient-Specific Implant (PSI) Surgery is an advanced surgical technique that uses customized, 3D-printed implants designed specifically for an individual’s anatomy. Based on detailed CT/MRI scans, these implants ensure a perfect anatomical fit, greater precision, and improved functional and cosmetic outcomes.
6. Jaw-in-a-day (JIAD): JIAD (Jaw-in-a-Day) Surgery is an advanced reconstructive technique that allows surgeons to remove diseased or cancer-affected jaw segments and rebuild the jaw with a bone graft in a single surgical session. Using virtual surgical planning, 3D printing, and custom guides, the procedure restores jaw structure, alignment, and function immediately.
