Surgical Steps of Gasless Transaxillary Endoscopic Thyroidectomy: From A to Z

open access: yesJournal of Oncology, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
In the past 30 years, the incidence of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) has been increasing rapidly and has become one of the most common malignant tumors in females. Currently, the main surgical treatment for DTC is standard open thyroidectomy (SOT) via a traditional Kocher mid‐cervical incision, but postoperative neck scarring was associated with ...

Optimization of electromyographic endotracheal tube electrode position by UEScope for monitored thyroidectomy

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 6, Issue 5, Page 1214-1219, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Objective Proper position of an electromyographic (EMG) endotracheal tube within the larynx plays a key role in functional electrophysiologic intraoperative neural monitoring (IONM) in thyroid surgery. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of a portable video‐assisted intubation device (UEScope) to verify the optimal ...

Can we routinely identify the external branch of the superior laryngeal nerves with neural monitoring?: a prospective report on 176 consecutive nerves at risk

open access: yes, 2021
The external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN) provides motor function to the cricothyroid muscle (CTM). EBSLN damage produces changes in voice quality and projection. Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) in thyroid surgery aims to optimize

Endoscopic Thyroidectomy for Large-Sized Goiters: Merits of the Axillo-Breast Approach with Gas Insufflation. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Thyroid Res
Background. Several minimal access approaches to the thyroid gland have been widely applied; nevertheless, such approaches are still challenging when dealing with large‐sized thyroid nodules or goiters. We hereby evaluated the outcomes and highlighted the merits of endoscopic axillo‐breast hemithyroidectomy (EABH) for large‐sized unilateral goiters ...
