Gasless Transaxillary Thyroidectomy: A Technique of Endoscopic Thyroidectomy
Various endoscopic thyroidectomy (ET) techniques ranging from video-assisted, total endoscopic, transaxillary endoscopic, robotic and chest wall approaches have been reported for thyroid surgery. They can be broadly divided in to gas-dependent and gasless approaches. Here, we describe our technique of gasless transaxillary thyroidectomy with synergistic benefits of open and endoscopic thyroidec...
متن کاملEndoscopic Transaxillary Near Total Thyroidectomy
BACKGROUND Since first reported in 1996, endoscopic minimally invasive surgery of the cervical region has been shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of benign thyroid and parathyroid disease. The endoscopic transaxillary technique uses a remote lateral approach to the thyroid gland. Because of the perceived difficulty in accessing the contralateral anatomy of the thyroid gland, this t...
متن کاملGasless Single Incision Endoscopic Thyroidectomy
BACKGROUND Endoscopic thyroidectomy making the scar outside the neck area has a cosmetic appeal for patients. Based on an anterior chest wall approach combined with the gasless technique, we developed a novel method for gasless endoscopic thyroidectomy with a single incision. MATERIALS AND METHODS From March 2009 to November 2010, 48 patients with benign thyroid nodules underwent thyroidectom...
متن کاملRobotic thyroidectomy versus endoscopic thyroidectomy: a meta-analysis
BACKGROUND To conduct a meta-analysis to determine the relative merits of robotic thyroidectomy (RT) and endoscopic thyroidectomy (ET). METHODS A literature search was performed to identify comparative studies reporting peri-operative outcomes for RT and ET. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and weighted mean differences (WMDs) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated using either a fixed...
متن کاملTransoral Endoscopic Thyroidectomy with Central Neck Dissection
Correspondence To the Editor: We have read with interest the article reported by Guo et al., [1] who performed a transoral thyroidectomy with central neck dissection on human cadavers by using a sublingual combined bilateral vestibular access. Interestingly, the described technique is identical to our approach that we published as a video paper in 2009. Although we could demonstrate the surgica...
