A fatal case of recurrent amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis after percutaneous tracheotomy: a case report [PDF]

, 2007
Background Amiodarone is a widely used antiarrythmic drug, which may produce secondary effects on the thyroid. In 14–18% of amiodarone-treated patients, there is overt thyroid dysfunction, usually in the form of amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis, which ...

Efficacy of minimally invasive video-assisted thyroidectomy for completion thyroidectomy

Laparoscopic, Endoscopic and Robotic Surgery, 2021
Objective: Minimally invasive video-assisted thyroidectomy (MIVAT) is among the most common alternatives to conventional open thyroidectomy. Previous reports have shown it to be safe and effective in patients without neck surgery history.

Comparative Use of Double Bipolar Forceps Versus Ultrasound Energy Device in Transoral Robotic Thyroidectomy

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) offers excellent cosmetic outcomes and safe access to the central neck without a cervical incision. Traditionally, ultrasonic energy devices have been used for dissection and hemostasis, though these instruments are limited by unilateral use, bulkiness, and greater thermal spread.
