Safety and Efficacy of Transoral Robotic Thyroidectomy Versus Traditional Open Thyroidectomy for Thyroid Cancer

Overview

In general, the utilization of the transoral vestibular approach in robotic surgery demonstrates efficacy comparable to that of traditional open surgery in the treatment of thyroid cancer. This method not only reduces the length of hospitalization for patients but also ensures superior cosmetic outcomes in the cervical region, thus achieving truly scarless aesthetics. The feasibility of Transoral Vestibular Robotic Thyroidectomy (TOVRT) for tumors greater than 2 cm in diameter warrants further exploration in future studies; however, for tumors less than 2 cm in diameter, TOVRT emerges as a safe, reliable, and practical alternative, poised to establish itself as an innovative surgical modality.
