Abstract:
Robot surgery has more precise and flexible operating characteristics than traditional endoscopic surgery, but robot thyroid surgery is far less widely carried out than endoscopic surgery. The reason for this is not only the high cost of robotic equipment and surgery, but also its own learning process that is different from endoscopic surgery. This article summarizes the technical points of robotic thyroid surgery based on our team's experience of 2800 cases over the past 10 years, including selection of surgical approach, exposure of surgical field, super-meticulous capsular dissection techniques for key structures such as parathyroid gland and recurrent laryngeal nerve protection during surgery, and prevention and treatment of complications during surgery, in order to promote the promotion and popularization of robotic thyroid surgery.
