channel 59 TORS.wmv

Read more This informative video is one of several news stories which aired in mid 2010 regarding transoral robotic surgery, or TORS. TORS involves the use of the da Vinci surgical robotic system for removal of tumors of the mouth and throat. This news story documents the experience of a patient who underwent TORS for a squamous cell cancer of the tongue base of an otherwise healthy man. His surgeons were Drs. Tod Huntley and Ed Krowiak of the Center for Ear Nose Throat & Allergy, based in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA. Drs. Huntley and Krowiak were among the first private practice surgeons in the US trained in both TORS and robotic thyroid surgery and are in demand as instructors and proctors to other surgeons in the US who are learning robotic head and neck surgery. They and their partners have extensive experience in head and neck cancer removal and reconstruction, and Drs. Krowiak and Huntley are the group's specialists in robotic surgery. CENTA is a group of six academic private practice otolaryngologists, a PhD speech pathologist, two nurse practitioners, and a cytologist. In addition to practicing general adult and pediatric ENT and allergy, they have an international reputation in tertiary referral head and neck cancer, sleep apnea, and robotic surgery. Their practice was one of the first to offer a weekly multidisciplinary head and neck tumor clinic in 1978. This weekly clinic involves an experienced team of surgeons, radiation and medical oncologists, oral surgeons, a prosthodontist, pathologists, and a social worker who personally see new head and neck cancer patients together in a group setting. This allows for the most comprehensive of evaluations and treatments, with all options -- including robotic surgery -- offered anywhere in the world available to their patients. Please visit the group's website: www.centadocs.com for more information or call them at 1-800-283-1056 to schedule an appointment.

Read more This is an informative video interview with surgeons Tod Huntley, MD and Ed Krowiak, two experienced head and neck cancer surgeons. The interview concerns transoral robotic surgery, or TORS. TORS is a groundbreaking and exciting technique which allows for the removal of cancers of the mouth and throat with much less side effects complications compared to traditional techniques. Drs. Huntley and Krowiak are among the most experienced robotic surgeons in the United States, and were among the first private practice surgeons in the US trained in both TORS and robotic thyroid surgery. In addition to their busy private practice, they teach and proctor other US surgeons in robotic head and neck surgical techniques. These two surgeons are part of the Center for Ear Nose Throat & Allergy, or CENTA, a group of six academic private practice otolaryngologists, a PhD speech pathologist, two nurse practitioners, and a cytologist. They are based in the Indianapolis, Indiana area. In addition to its international reputation in tertiary referral head and neck cancer, sleep apnea, and robotic surgery, CENTA's physicians treat the whole range of adult and pediatric ENT and allergy disorders. CENTA was one of the first groups in the world to offer a weekly multidisciplinary head and neck tumor clinic, which began in 1978. This weekly clinic involves an experienced team of surgeons, radiation and medical oncologists, oral surgeons, a prosthodontist, pathologists, and a social worker who personally see new head and neck cancer patients together in a group setting. This allows for an individualized approach to treatment that is tailored to the patient's specific needs and desires.

da Vinci robotic thyroidectomy news story.wmv

Read more Removal of part of the thyroid gland has traditionally involved an incision in the neck, which is usually visible no matter small the incision or how skilled the surgeon. There is another newer approach however, using the da Vinci surgical robot. This da Vinci robotic thyroid surgery is approached through the axilla, or armpit, and avoids any incision in the neck. This results in a better cosmetic result, as shown in this video. The video is a news story aired in early 2010, and documents the experience of a patient who underwent this surgery for a benign tumor in her thyroid by Drs. Tod Huntley and Ed Kwoiak of the Center for Ear Nose Throat & Allergy, or CENTA. Her results are typical of those of other patients of theirs. CENTA's YouTube channel (0centa) also has videos documenting the surgery step by step, as well as a patient's personal testimonial of her robotic thyroidectomy. Drs. Huntley and Krowiak were the first surgeons in Indiana and among the first in the United States to adopt da Vinci robotic techniques in head and neck surgery, and they now instruct other surgeons in robotic surgery for thyroid and throat tumors. They are available for consultation for patients throughout the US and abroad. CENTA is a private practice ear, nose, throat, and allergy practice which offers comprehensive treatment of adult and pediatric otolaryngology and head and neck surgical problems. In addition, each of the group's members subspecializes in specific areas of ENT, as seen on CENTA's website: www.centadocs.com. The group can also be reached by telephone at 1-800-283-1056.

TORS news story.wmv

Read more Dr. Tod Huntley and Dr. Ed Krowiak are among the US's most experienced da Vinci robotic head and neck surgeons, and were among the very first private practice surgeons in the US trained in both robotic thyroid surgery and transoral robotic surgical (TORS) removal of cancers of the mouth and throat. They are in demand as instructors and proctors to other surgeons in the US who are learning robotic head and neck surgery. This video is a news story aired in the summer of 2010 and documents the experience of one of their patients who underwent transoral robotic surgical (abbreviated TORS) removal of a walnut sized tumor from the base of his tongue. This groundbreaking surgery allows for removal of throat cancers that were previously accessible through much more complex and invasive techniques, with much greater side effects. The Center for Ear Nose Throat & Allergy (CENTA) is a group of six academic private practice otolaryngologists, a PhD speech pathologist, two nurse practitioners, and a cytologist. In addition to practicing general adult and pediatric ENT and allergy, they specialize in tertiary referral head and neck cancer, sleep apnea, and robotic surgery. They practice in a unique multidisciplinary fashion with a weekly head and neck tumor clinic with surgeons, radiation and medical oncologists, oral surgeons, a prosthodontist, pathologists, and a social worker -- all of whom see new head and neck cancer patients together in a group setting, offering as comprehensive of evaluations and treatments available anywhere.

da Vinci robotic thyroidectomy patient testimonial.wmv

Read more This is an unpaid, unscripted testimonial of a patient who has undergone a da Vinci robotic thyroidectomy. Her surgeon was Dr. Tod Huntley, MD of the Center for Ear Nose Throat & Allergy, based in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA. He was assisted by his partner, Dr. Ed Krowiak, MD. As can be seen, she was doing beautifully when this video was shot 6 months after her surgery. These results are typical of what has been experienced by Dr. Huntley's and Krowiak's patients. Drs. Huntley and Krowiak were among the USA's early adopters of this groundbreaking surgery, which allows for thyroid removal without a neck incision. They have extensive experience in thyroid surgery, both traditional and robotic, and are instructors who teach and proctor other surgeons who wish to learn and perfect their robotic head and neck surgical techniques. The Center for Ear Nose Throat & Allergy (CENTA) is a group of six academic private practice otolaryngologists, a PhD speech pathologist, two nurse practitioners, and a cytologist.
