Abstract
The transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) has been increasingly adopted for minimally invasive thyroid surgery and it has proved to have better cosmetic results and comparable surgical outcomes with open operations. Most reports on TORT are case series, or single center, small-sample controlled, retrospective studies, and clinical guidelines have not been established so far. To better promote the standardized implementation and widespread adoption of TORT in China, the expert panel have organized thyroid minimally invasive surgery experts and some robotic thyroidectomy experts in China jointly formulate the Chinese expert consensus on transoral vestibular approach robotic thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy (2024 edition) based on the latest relevant literature and clinical experiences from multiple centers. This consensus aims to provide guidance and reference for colleagues.
期刊介绍:
The aim of the Journal of Robotic Surgery is to become the leading worldwide journal for publication of articles related to robotic surgery, encompassing surgical simulation and integrated imaging techniques. The journal provides a centralized, focused resource for physicians wishing to publish their experience or those wishing to avail themselves of the most up-to-date findings.The journal reports on advance in a wide range of surgical specialties including adult and pediatric urology, general surgery, cardiac surgery, gynecology, ENT, orthopedics and neurosurgery.The use of robotics in surgery is broad-based and will undoubtedly expand over the next decade as new technical innovations and techniques increase the applicability of its use. The journal intends to capture this trend as it develops.
