Introduction: Transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA) has become increasingly popular. Several reports have emphasized the safety and efficacy of this new approach. However, there is no report on functional voice outcomes, inc...

Transoral thyroidectomy is a novel technique that uses three small incisions hidden in the oral vestibule to remove the thyroid gland. It provides excellent cosmetic results and outcomes comparable to the open approach. One of the main obstacles for...

Indocyanine green (ICG) angiography, a real-time intraoperative imaging technique, is associated with better parathyroid identification and functional evaluation during open thyroidectomy. However, the benefits of ICG fluorescence imaging application...

Background: To assess the safety and effectiveness of transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) in thyroid tumor. Methods: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, SCOPUS, Cochrane database, and Google Scholar up to June 2022. Studies comparing outcomes and comp...

The transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA) has excellent cosmetic effects and its popularity is increasing worldwide. We present our experience with TOETVA and its short-term outcomes. This study included 110 consecutive pati...

In the transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA), three oral vestibular incisions are used to access the thyroid. This approach leaves no scar on the body surface; however, unexpected complications may occur. Three patients (two...

Background: Transoral endoscopic vestibular thyroidectomy (TOEVT), a variant of natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery, offers a scar-less thyroid to young females. However, few studies have compared the effectiveness and quality of life (Qo...

Thyroid cancer is among the most common endocrine malignancies, necessitating effective surgical interventions. Traditional open cervicotomy has long been the standard approach for thyroidectomy. However, the advent of robotic surgery has introduced...

Background/Objectives: The TOETVA and TORT have been successfully refined in recent years, with few complications and excellent results. In this study, we compared TORT and TOETVA in patients with papillary thyroid cancer. Methods: From September 201...

Background and Objectives: The transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy-vestibular approach (TOETVA) and parathyroidectomy-vestibular approach (TOEPVA) are scar-free alternatives to conventional surgery but are classified as clean-contaminated due to the o...

Thyroid cancer is the most common cancer of the endocrine system, and, in recent years, there has been a phenomenon of overdiagnosis followed by subsequent overtreatment. This results in an increasing number of thyroidectomy complications being faced...

Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a neoplasm originating from parafollicular C cells. MTC is a rare disease, but its prognosis is less favorable than that of well-differentiated thyroid cancers. To improve the prognosis of patients with MTC, early...

Background: The diagnosis of thyroid cancer is continuously increasing and consequently the amount of thyroidectomy. Notwithstanding the actual surgical skill, postoperative hypoparathyroidism still represents its most frequent complication. The aims...
