Abstract:
The incidence of thyroid cancer has increased in recent years. The desire for aesthetics and quality of life, combined with the development of energy devices and robotics make surgeons introduction of minimally invasive procedures both more refined and difficult techniques, resulting less painful and better aesthetic results. Thyroidectomy has been expanded to include minimally invasive video-assisted thyroidectomy, multi-approach to endoscopic thyroidectomy, thermal ablation, chemical ablation and robot-assisted thyroidectomy.
