About

Luca Sacchetto is a rising head and neck surgeon whose work is shaping the modern approach to transoral robotic surgery (TORS). His primary research focuses on expanding the applications of TORS beyond traditional cancer treatment, particularly for benign base of tongue pathologies and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Sacchetto’s major contribution lies in systematically evaluating the safety and efficacy of robotic surgery for non-oncologic conditions, demonstrating that TORS can offer precise, minimally invasive solutions for patients with airway obstruction and benign lesions. His most-cited work, a 2024 systematic review on the role of TORS in benign base of tongue management, has already garnered 4 citations, signaling growing interest in this emerging field. By synthesizing evidence from multiple studies, Sacchetto provides a critical framework for surgeons considering robotic approaches for functional and quality-of-life indications. His research bridges the gap between technological innovation and clinical practice, offering a roadmap for safer, more effective surgical interventions. As TORS continues to evolve, Sacchetto’s work positions him as a key voice in defining its future applications, making him a researcher to watch for anyone interested in the next frontier of head and neck surgery.
