About

Mehar Chand Sharma is a leading figure in head and neck surgical oncology, with a particular focus on innovative approaches to oral cancer management. His research centers on refining surgical techniques to improve patient outcomes while minimizing morbidity. A notable contribution is his work on trans-oral robotic surgery (TORS) for posteriorly positioned oral tongue cancers, where he demonstrated a mandibulotomy-sparing approach that reduces the need for extensive facial incisions and bone cuts. This technique, detailed in his 2020 study, has garnered attention for its potential to preserve function and aesthetics without compromising oncologic safety. While his most cited paper currently holds two citations, Sharma’s broader impact is reflected in his sustained contributions to the field, including collaborative studies on surgical margins and reconstructive strategies. His work has been instrumental in advancing minimally invasive head and neck surgery, offering patients less invasive alternatives to traditional open procedures. As a researcher committed to evidence-based practice, Sharma continues to shape surgical protocols, with his findings informing clinical guidelines and inspiring further investigation into robotic-assisted techniques for complex oral cavity tumors.
