About
Antonino Maniaci is a leading otolaryngologist and head and neck surgeon whose research centers on transoral robotic surgery (TORS), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and oropharyngeal oncology. His most impactful work demonstrates the transformative potential of TORS for recurrent lingual tonsillitis—a study with 37 citations that established robotic resection as a safe, effective alternative to traditional approaches. Maniaci has also made pivotal contributions to OSA management, notably through a 2022 study (18 citations) comparing quality-of-life outcomes in patients treated with multilevel surgery versus continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), offering critical insights for personalized treatment pathways. His systematic reviews and meta-analyses on TORS for submandibular stones and parapharyngeal space tumors have helped define best practices in minimally invasive head and neck surgery. With over 100 cumulative citations across his most-cited works, Maniaci is recognized for advancing robotic surgical techniques in both benign and malignant disease, and for mentoring the next generation of surgeons through studies on young European otolaryngologists’ perceptions of TORS. His work consistently bridges innovation and clinical application, shaping modern surgical standards.
