About
Dr. Piyush Sinha is a head and neck surgeon whose work sits at the intersection of oncologic precision and aesthetic preservation. His primary research focuses on minimally invasive surgical techniques for oropharyngeal and mandibular malignancies, with a particular emphasis on robotic-assisted and cosmetic-sparing approaches. Dr. Sinha’s most influential contribution is his detailed guide on flap elevation for robot-assisted selective neck dissection via the retroauricular approach (2019, 9 citations), which provides surgeons with a standardized, step-by-step methodology to reduce visible scarring while maintaining oncologic safety. He further advanced the field with his description of a modified facelift incision for posterior segmental mandibulectomy (2020, 6 citations), demonstrating that radical tumor resection can be blended with excellent cosmetic outcomes. In a notable technical achievement, Dr. Sinha pioneered the use of selective lingual artery embolization prior to transoral robotic surgery for recurrent base-of-tongue carcinomas (2020, 4 citations), addressing the challenge of managing residual disease after chemoradiation. His work is particularly impactful for surgeons treating the 30% of oropharyngeal cancer patients who develop recurrence, offering them less morbid salvage options. Through these contributions, Dr. Sinha is redefining the standard of care for complex head and neck cancer surgery.
