Summary

The goal of this retrospective study is to compare the safety and efficiacy of endoscopic thyroidectomy via retro-auricular single-site approach, transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach and transareola approach.

Conditions

• Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Retro-Auricular Single-Site Endoscopic Thyroidectomy	The strap muscles and the sternocleidomastoid muscle were separated. Upper parathyroid and lower parathyroid glands were identified and preserved. The recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) was identified，A lobe of thyroid specimen and central lymph nodes were dissected.
PROCEDURE	Transoral Endoscopic Thyroidectomy Vestibular Approach	The patient was placed in a supine position with slight neck extension under nasotracheal intubation. The mouth was garbled with povidone iodine before surgery. Three laparoscopic ports (a 10- to 15-mm port at midline and two 5-mm ports at the lateral junction between the canine and first premolar teeth)were inserted under the lower lip at the oral vestibular area.The strap muscleswere separated in the midline to expose the thyroid and trachea. The recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) was identified at the insertion to the larynx, then followed downandparallel tothe trachea inferiorly.
PROCEDURE	Transareola Endoscopic Thyroidectomy	The patient was in supine position. Incision was made inside the right areola and a 10mm puncture device was placed, subcutaneous separation rod was used to separate the space, and a 30° endoscope was introduced, puncture device was placed in a 5mm incision on the left areola, ultrasonic knife free flap was used, subcutaneous separation space was placed in the upper sternal segment, and a 5mm puncture device was placed outside the right areola. The anterior cervical flap was further dissociated to establish a space. The median cervical line was cut to cut off the isthmus of the thyroid, and the tracheal fascia ligament of the thyroid was separated and the nerve was exposed to protect the nerves. Then remove the lobe of thyroid and central lymph nodes
