Transaxillary Endoscopic Thyroidectomy: An Alternative to Traditional Open Thyroidectomy

Journal of the National Medical Association, 2009
The traditional thyroidectomy technique typically approaches the thyroid through a range of different sized transverse incisions in the neck. Such a scar can result in hypesthesias, paresthesias, and increased patient self-awareness. Furthermore, in some patients of darker-skin ethnicity, the traditional neck incision can result in hyperplastic and ...

Comparison of the harmonic focus and the thunderbeat for open thyroidectomy

Langenbeck's Archives of Surgery, 2016
An effective method for controlling haemostasis during open thyroidectomy procedures is crucial because of the high risks of haemorrhage and neck haematoma. This study aimed to demonstrate the efficacy of the integrated ultrasonic/bipolar Thunderbeat™ for this procedure.This retrospective non-inferiority study compared the Thunderbeat™ and the ...

Transaxillary gasless endoscopic thyroidectomy versus conventional open thyroidectomy: a randomized study

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2016
The objective of this study is to compare the outcomes of transaxillary gasless endoscopic thyroidectomy (TGET) and conventional open thyroidectomy (COT). Thirty-three patients with thyroid nodule were enrolled. All patients were randomized into two different groups. Sixteen patients underwent TGET and 17 patients underwent COT.

Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Transaxillary Robotic Thyroidectomy Versus Open Thyroidectomy

Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy & Percutaneous Techniques, 2014
It remains controversial whether the transaxillary robotic thyroidectomy (RT) is a feasible or better alternative to open thyroidectomy (OT) in thyroid surgery. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of RT by pooling comparative studies of RT and OT in a systematic review and meta-analysis.Original articles comparing transaxillary RT and conventional OT for

Is transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy safe for total thyroidectomy compared to open thyroidectomy? A propensity-score matched cohort study with papillary thyroid carcinoma

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2023
AbstractBackgroundTransoral endoscopic thyroidectomy via vestibular approach (TOETVA) has become increasingly popular in the treatment of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). This study aimed to describe the safety and feasibility of total thyroidectomy between the TOETVA and open thyroidectomy (OT) approaches for the treatment of patients with PTC ...

Comparison of Transoral Endoscopic Thyroidectomy Vestibular Approach and Conventional Open Thyroidectomy in Benign Thyroid Tumors

Indian Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2022
Conventional open thyroidectomy remains the standard treatment of surgery for benign thyroid tumors but leaves a permanent scar in the neck. We conducted this study to compare the surgical outcomes of transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA) versus conventional open thyroidectomy (COT), and thence analyze the safety and viability

An Audit of the Procedure of Open Thyroidectomy at A Tertiary Care Centre

Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery, 2020
We plan to evaluate the various variables associated with the complications of thyroidectomy performed at our department in the last 5 years. Medical records of the patients who underwent thyroidectomy during 2014-2018 were collected. Complications of hypocalcemia and recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy were analysed in terms of the demography ...
