Yonsei Experience of 5000 Gasless Transaxillary Robotic Thyroidectomies

Yonsei Experience of 5000 Gasless Transaxillary Robotic Thyroidectomies

Over the last 10 years, the thyroid cancer incidence has had a worldwide increasing trend. Thyroid surgery is one of the most commonly performed operations. Traditional open surgery may have poor cosmetic outcomes. Endoscopic cervical approaches have been introduced by Gagner1 and Huscher et al.2.
