About
Dr. Nayla Matar is a leading figure in head and neck surgical oncology, renowned for pioneering advances in minimally invasive robotic surgery. Her research focuses on refining transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for the management of complex tumors, with a particular emphasis on optimizing surgical techniques and improving patient outcomes. Dr. Matar’s seminal work, “Transoral robotic surgery for the management of head and neck tumors: learning curve,” has garnered over 110 citations, establishing a foundational framework for surgeons navigating the technical challenges and proficiency milestones of robotic-assisted procedures. She further demonstrated innovation by combining a novel CO2 laser waveguide with TORS in a feasibility study on four patients with malignant tumors, a contribution cited 46 times that showcased the potential for enhanced precision in tumor resection. Through these contributions, Dr. Matar has not only advanced surgical safety and efficacy but also shaped training paradigms in robotic head and neck surgery. Her work continues to inspire a new generation of surgeons to adopt and refine robotic techniques, solidifying her impact on the field.
