About
Willem H. Schreuder is a surgical oncologist whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive approaches for head and neck cancers, particularly oral and oropharyngeal carcinomas. His most influential contribution is a landmark 2017 study comparing retroauricular endoscopic and robotic neck dissection to conventional techniques for oral cancer, which has garnered 41 citations and helped establish the feasibility and safety of these less invasive methods. More recently, Schreuder has focused on shared decision-making, leading the development of an interactive online patient decision aid for patients with operable oropharyngeal carcinoma. This mixed-methods project, published in 2023, aims to empower patients and clinicians in choosing between transoral robotic surgery and other treatments. By combining technical innovation in surgical technique with a patient-centered approach to treatment selection, Schreuder bridges the gap between operative excellence and quality of life. His work reflects a commitment to both refining surgical precision and ensuring that patients are active, informed participants in their own care.
