Endoscopic total thyroidectomy.

open access: yesJSLS : Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons, 2009
Endoscopic neck surgery for the thyroid and parathyroid is being tested as an alternative to open thyroidectomy. The aim of this study was to determine the safety and feasibility of endoscopic transaxillary total thyroidectomy (ETTT).Twenty-two consecutive patients from January 2006 to September 2008 underwent ETTT.

“Tension Chyle Leak”: A Life‐Threatening Sequela of Thoracic Duct Injury Following Resection of BRAF‐Mutated Anaplastic Thyroid Carcinoma

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Airway obstruction secondary to chyle leak is an exceptionally rare phenomenon. Here, we describe this complication in a patient with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) undergoing consolidative surgery after BRAF‐targeted therapy. Methods A 55‐year‐old man presented with a rapidly enlarging neck mass.

Factors Increasing the Likelihood of Postoperative Hematomas Following Thyroid Surgery

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neck hematoma following thyroid surgery is a potentially life‐threatening complication. Methods This retrospective case–control study reviewed neck hematoma reoperations following thyroid surgery (2009–2024), using 3:1 matching. Univariable analysis identified hematoma and delayed onset (≥ 6 h) risk factors, with odds ratios (ORs ...

Bitter Taste Receptor Agonists Induce Apoptosis in Papillary Thyroid Cancer

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common thyroid malignancy, with a 20% recurrence rate. Bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) and their genes (TAS2Rs) may regulate survival in solid tumors. This study examined T2R expression and function in PTC cells.

A Three-limb Teleoperated Robotic System with Foot Control for Flexible Endoscopic Surgery [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Flexible endoscopy requires high skills to manipulate both the endoscope and associated instruments. In most robotic flexible endoscopic systems, the endoscope and instruments are controlled separately by two operators, which may result in communication errors and inefficient operation.

Instant Intraoperative Histopathological Assessment of Fresh Parathyroid Tissue: Higher Harmonic Generation Microscopy as a Potential Alternative to Frozen Section

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hypoparathyroidism is a complication associated with significant morbidity and results from inadvertent removal of the parathyroid during thyroid surgery. Therefore, intra‐operative identification of parathyroid tissue is essential to minimize the risk of hypoparathyroidism.

Total Endoscopic Thyroidectomy with Intraoperative Laryngeal Nerve Monitoring

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2016
Objective. To evaluate the clinical efficacy of laryngeal nerve (LN) monitoring (LNM) during total endoscopic thyroidectomy via breast approach, with emphasis on the identification rates for RLN and EBSLN and the incidence of RLN paralysis. Materials and
