About

Valeria Fiore is a surgeon-researcher specializing in head and neck oncology, with a particular focus on minimally invasive approaches to complex anatomical tumors. Her key research areas include transoral robotic surgery (TORS), parapharyngeal space (PPS) tumor management, and techniques to reduce surgical morbidity. Her most cited work, "Management of Parapharyngeal Space Tumor Using Transoral Robotic Surgery: The Tonsillar Fossa Battlefield" (2020, 10 citations), demonstrates her commitment to advancing surgical precision by avoiding external scars, reducing bleeding risk, and preserving cranial nerve function. Through detailed case presentations, Fiore has contributed to the growing evidence that robotic surgery can safely access challenging deep neck spaces while improving cosmetic and functional outcomes for patients. Her work is particularly impactful for young patients, as highlighted in her case of a 23-year-old female, where aesthetic and nerve preservation were paramount. Though her citation count is still building, Fiore’s research is influential in the evolving field of robotic head and neck surgery, offering a roadmap for surgeons seeking to balance radical tumor resection with quality of life. Her contributions underscore a broader shift toward patient-centered, scarless surgical innovation.
