Pioneers in head and neck surgery

Groundbreaking research and leading-edge treatments are born at Penn Medicine. We’re known internationally for our accomplishments and innovation in head and neck surgery. We performed the world’s first transoral robotic surgery (TORS), a minimally invasive robot-assisted procedure for head and neck cancer.

Our researchers also invented an advanced technology called TumorGlow® that makes tumors light up for unprecedented accuracy in cancer surgery. In addition, we’re leading the way in plastic and reconstructive surgery of the head, neck, and face. Our surgeons perform complex procedures to improve function and appearance after cancer treatment or trauma.
