About
Dr. Frank Cheau‐Feng Lin is a pioneering head and neck surgeon whose research focuses on advancing transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for oral cancers and pediatric lymphatic malformations, particularly in Taiwan’s endemic betel quid–chewing population. His major contributions include demonstrating that TORS can achieve favorable long-term oncologic outcomes even in complex cases, such as oral cancer patients with trismus—a common complication that traditionally complicates surgery. His 2024 study on TORS for trismus patients (7 citations) and his 2023 work on TORS outcomes in an endemic region (6 citations) have provided critical evidence that robotic approaches can improve survival and reduce morbidity. Notably, Dr. Lin also pioneered robot-assisted excision of cervical cystic hygroma through a retroauricular hairline approach (2016, 5 citations) and extended this technique to pediatric patients (2021, 5 citations), offering scarless alternatives for children. His work bridges surgical innovation with real-world challenges in high-incidence populations, earning him recognition as a leader in robotic head and neck surgery. With over 20 publications and growing citation impact, Dr. Lin continues to shape minimally invasive oncologic and pediatric surgery.
