About

Valerio Arietti is a leading figure in head and neck surgery, with a focused expertise in transoral robotic surgery (TORS) and its expanding applications. His work has been instrumental in moving TORS beyond its traditional oncologic role into the management of benign pathologies, particularly those affecting the base of tongue. Arietti’s major contribution lies in systematically evaluating and validating TORS for conditions like obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and other non-cancerous lesions, demonstrating its safety and efficacy where conventional approaches fall short. His 2024 systematic review, which has already garnered 4 citations, serves as a critical reference for surgeons adopting these techniques. By rigorously synthesizing evidence on outcomes, complications, and patient selection, Arietti has helped establish a new standard of care for benign base-of-tongue disorders. His work not only advances surgical precision but also improves quality of life for patients with these challenging conditions. Through his research, Arietti continues to shape the future of minimally invasive head and neck surgery, bridging the gap between technological innovation and practical clinical application.
