The numbers of thyroid surgeries have been increasing recently. Robot-assisted thyroidectomy allows for a better cosmetic outcome in comparison with conventional open thyroidectomy.
We performed two robot-assisted endoscopic thyroidectomies by a gasless unilateral axillo-breast approach using the da Vinci surgical robot system.
We performed right thyroid lobectomies in both patients. The pathologic reports were: micropapillary carcinoma without extracapsular invasion in patient 1 and a benign cyst in patient 2. The operation times were 165 minutes in patient 1 and 110 minutes in patient 2. No postoperative complications occurred.
Regarding our early experience, robotic thyroidectomy using the gasless axillo-breast approach is a safe, feasible, and cosmetically good procedure.
最近甲状腺手术的数量一直在增加。与传统的开放式甲状腺切除术相比,机器人辅助甲状腺切除术可以获得更好的美容效果。
我们使用达芬奇手术机器人系统通过无气单侧腋窝-乳房入路进行了两例机器人辅助内镜甲状腺切除术。
我们为两名患者均进行了右侧甲状腺叶切除术。病理报告显示:患者 1 为无包膜外侵犯的微乳头状癌,患者 2 为良性囊肿。手术时间分别为患者 1 的 165 分钟和患者 2 的 110 分钟。无术后并发症发生。
就我们的早期经验而言,使用无气腋窝-乳房入路的机器人甲状腺切除术是一种安全、可行且美容效果良好的手术。
