About
Dr. Terushige Mori is a leading Japanese head and neck surgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive transoral surgery for pharyngeal and laryngeal cancers. His major contributions lie in demonstrating the efficacy and safety of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) and non-robotic transoral approaches for treating oropharyngeal, hypopharyngeal, and supraglottic squamous cell carcinoma. Dr. Mori’s landmark multicenter retrospective study, with 28 citations, provides critical real-world evidence from Japan, showing that these techniques offer excellent disease control while preserving vital functions like swallowing and speech. He has also authored comprehensive reviews on the current status and advantages of TORS in Japan, highlighting its role as a standard-of-care for early-stage cancers. By systematically documenting outcomes and procedural nuances, Dr. Mori has helped establish transoral surgery as a viable, organ-sparing alternative to traditional open surgery or chemoradiation. His work is particularly impactful for researchers and clinicians seeking to balance oncologic rigor with quality of life, making him a key figure in the global adoption of minimally invasive head and neck cancer surgery.
