About

Martina A. Broglie is a leading head and neck surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for oropharyngeal cancer, with a particular emphasis on cost-effectiveness and patient outcomes. Her major contributions lie in the comparative analysis of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) versus transoral laser microsurgery (TLM), two competing approaches for removing operable oropharyngeal squamous cell cancers (OPSCC). Through her landmark 2021 cost-utility study, which has accumulated 23 citations, Broglie provided critical evidence on the economic and clinical trade-offs between these techniques, helping to guide surgical decision-making in an era increasingly focused on reducing treatment-related toxicities. Her work addresses a pressing need to balance oncologic efficacy with healthcare costs and quality of life, making her a key voice in the evolution of head and neck cancer surgery. Broglie’s research is highly regarded for its practical implications, directly informing surgeons and policymakers seeking to optimize resource allocation while improving patient care. Her dedication to rigorous comparative effectiveness research underscores her role as a pioneer in the field of transoral surgery.
