Forty-five surgical procedures were performed for neck nodal metastatic
carcinoma of unknown origin (n=3); carcinoma of tonsil (n=2), tongue
(n=2), nasopharynx (n=3), maxilla (n=1) and laryngo-pharynx (n=4).
Droplet contamination was 57.8%, 59.5%, 8.0% and 0% for operating,
first and second assistant surgeons, and scrub nurse respectively.
Droplet count was highest and most widespread during osteotomies. No
droplet splash was noted for transoral robotic surgery.
