Robotic and Endoscopic Thyroid Surgery: Evolution and Advances [PDF]
To minimize surgical morbidity and neck scarring, minimally invasive thyroidectomy and robotic/endoscopic thyroidectomy via cervical, axillary, anterior chest, breast, postauricular or transoral approaches have been developed over the past 20 years.

The technique of thyroidectomy [PDF]
The earliest account of thyroidectomy is probably that given by Roger Frugardi of Salerno in 11701. Thyroidectomy remained a rarely performed procedure, William Halsted2 finding accounts of only eight operations in which the scalpel had been used on the thyroid between 1596 and 1800, and of only 69 more cases between 1800 and 1848.

The ultrasonic scalpel is a surgical shear that uses high-frequency mechanical energy to enable simultaneous vessel sealing and tissue coagulation at the same time. We conducted a prospective study to compare the outcome of total thyroidectomy using the ultrasonic scalpel versus the device Ligasure in terms of safety, operative time, overall drainage ...
