About
Dr. Veit Zebralla is a leading expert in head and neck surgical oncology, with a specific focus on the surgical management of oropharyngeal carcinoma. His work is instrumental in shaping modern treatment paradigms, particularly through his contributions to Germany’s national S3 clinical practice guidelines. Dr. Zebralla’s research champions the shift from classic, highly invasive open surgeries toward transoral surgical techniques, including transoral laser microsurgery (TLM) and other transoral approaches (TOS). His highly cited 2024 guideline paper (part I) synthesizes evidence for combining transoral resection with neck dissection and tailored adjuvant radio- (chemo-) therapy, offering a standardized, evidence-based framework that improves functional outcomes while maintaining oncologic safety. This work has become a cornerstone reference for clinicians navigating the complex landscape of oropharyngeal cancer treatment. By codifying these minimally invasive strategies, Dr. Zebralla is directly influencing surgical practice and patient recovery across Germany and beyond, cementing his role as a key voice in the evolution of head and neck cancer therapy.
