Mini-flap BABA (Bilateral Axillo-breast Approach) Robotic Thyroidectomy is Safe

Prospective Randomized Controlled Study on Mini-flap Bilateral Axillo-breast Approach Robotic Thyroidectomy : Effect on Postoperative Pain and Sensation

• Status: Unknown
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 80 (estimated)

Summary

In this study, a randomized controlled study was conducted between two groups of 40 recipients of conventional flap during BABA robotic-thyroidectomy and 40 recipients of Mini-flap method during BABA robotic-thyroidectomy. In this study, we tried to determine whether the use of Mini-flap can reduce sensory loss and pain after BABA robotic-thyroidectomy.
