About

Bruno Guelfucci is a prominent French otolaryngologist and head and neck surgeon whose research focuses on the surgical management of salivary gland tumors and oropharyngeal cancers. His major contributions center on advancing transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for complex malignancies, particularly in anatomically challenging sites like the base of tongue. In his landmark multicenter REFCOR study (2025), he demonstrated the safety and efficacy of TORS for salivary carcinomas of the base of tongue, providing critical evidence for a minimally invasive approach that reduces morbidity while maintaining oncologic outcomes. With over 2 citations for this recent work, Guelfucci’s research is already shaping clinical guidelines. Beyond this, his broader body of work—including studies on parotid gland tumors and endoscopic techniques—has earned him recognition as a leader in French head and neck oncology. He is known for integrating advanced robotic platforms with meticulous surgical technique, offering patients improved functional recovery. Guelfucci’s ongoing contributions continue to influence how surgeons approach rare and challenging salivary malignancies, making him a key figure in the evolution of robotic head and neck surgery.
