Robotic Retroauricular Thyroidectomy
Although RRT is generally recommended for thyroid lobectomies, both Byeon et al. and Kim et al. successfully performed total thyroidectomies, with or without neck dissection, using this technique[10,11]. They considered advanced lymph node metastases with extracapsular spread, and advanced thyroid cancer that invaded the surrounding tissues, as contraindications for the use of RRT. They did not...
متن کاملModified robotic-assisted thyroidectomy: an initial experience with the retroauricular approach.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS New approaches for robotic-assisted thyroidectomy, including the retroauricular approach, were recently described. We have modified the established surgical approach for retroauricular robotic thyroidectomy. Herein, we report our initial experience to identify challenges and limitations of this new surgical approach. STUDY DESIGN Prospective case series. METHODS This s...

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 کاملRobotic facelift thyroidectomy: Facilitating remote access surgery.
