Transoral robotic-assisted thyroidectomy with central neck dissection: preclinical cadaver feasibility study and proposed surgical technique
UNLABELLED Recently, a transoral robotic-assisted technique to access the thyroid gland has been introduced. Despite the advantages this approach may have over other minimally invasive and robotic-assisted techniques, we found that the placement of the camera through the floor of mouth led to restricted freedom of movement. We describe our modification to this technique to overcome this problem...
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...
متن کاملTransoral robotic-assisted thyroidectomy: a preclinical feasibility study in 2 cadavers.
BACKGROUND Technological advances in thyroid surgery have included various "minimally invasive" thyroidectomy techniques, both open and endoscopic. These include not only minimally invasive video-associated approaches but also variations of the transaxillary approach. More recently, a transoral technique using video assistance has been reported for thyroidectomy. Use of the robot was also recen...
متن کاملFeasibility of transoral robotic-assisted supraglottic laryngectomy.
BACKGROUND We aimed to describe our experience with transoral robotic-assisted supraglottic laryngectomy. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the records of patients who underwent transoral robotic-assisted supraglottic laryngectomy at our institution between May 2007 and November 2008. RESULTS During the study period, 7 patients with malignancy underwent the procedure (4 men, 3 women; aver...
متن کاملTransoral thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy - A North American series of robotic and endoscopic transoral approaches to the central neck.
OBJECTIVE Most thyroid surgery in North America is completed via a cervical incision, which leaves a permanent scar. Approaches without cutaneous incisions offer aesthetic advantages. This series represents the largest series of transoral vestibular approaches to the central neck in North America, and the first published reports of robotic transoral vestibular thyroidectomy for thyroid carcinom...
