Remote Access Robotic Facelift Thyroidectomy: A Multi-institutional Experience.
[BACKGROUND] Robotic facelift thyroidectomy (RFT) was developed as a new surgical approach to the thyroid gland using a remote incision site. Early favorable results led to this confirmatory multi-institutional experience. [METHODS] Prospe…

American Thyroid Association Statement on Remote-Access Thyroid Surgery.
[BACKGROUND] Remote-access techniques have been described over the recent years as a method of removing the thyroid gland without an incision in the neck. However, there is confusion related to the number of techniques available and the ide…

Robotic facelift thyroid surgery.
Techniques for thyroid surgery have advanced dramatically over the past two decades, driven by a better understanding of thyroid physiology, anatomy, and perioperative management strategies. Improvements in surgical technology have permitte…

Defining anatomical landmarks for robotic facelift thyroidectomy.
[BACKGROUND] Robotic facelift thyroidectomy (RFT) is a straightforward remote access thyroidectomy technique. While the anatomy encountered during RFT is well known to surgeons, the vector of approach during this technique may be less famil…

Robotic facelift thyroidectomy.
The use of minimally invasive and endoscopic thyroidectomy techniques has become widespread. However, these procedures all result in a visible neck incision. Several remote access thyroidectomy approaches that place the necessary incision i…

Robotic facelift thyroidectomy: Facilitating remote access surgery.
[BACKGROUND] A novel remote access robotic thyroidectomy technique has been described that uses as its portal a postauricular and occipital hairline (facelift) incision. Experimental investigation and clinical validation have been completed…

Qualitative and quantitative differences between 2 robotic thyroidectomy techniques.
[OBJECTIVES] Two distinct remote access robotic thyroidectomy techniques were implemented in a high-volume endocrine surgery practice. Important technical and clinical differences were observed and are described. [STUDY DESIGN] Cross-secti…

Robotic facelift thyroidectomy: I. Preclinical simulation and morphometric assessment.
[OBJECTIVES] Robotic thyroidectomy was introduced in the United States despite scant preclinical data. We pursued a systematic preclinical investigation of a new remote access, robotic thyroidectomy technique via a facelift incision, and so…
-
Robotic facelift thyroidectomy: II. Clinical feasibility and safety.
[OBJECTIVES] A number of remote access thyroidectomy techniques have been described in the last several years. These approaches are technically challenging, can be performed on only a limited patient population, and have been associated wit…
-
Robotic facelift thyroidectomy: patient selection and technical considerations.
[OBJECTIVES] A series of remote access thyroidectomy techniques, some using a surgical robot, have been introduced in the last decade. Most of these approaches require awkward positioning, use unfamiliar dissection planes, and have been ass…

Cosmetic thyroid surgery: defining the essential principles.
[OBJECTIVES] Minimally invasive thyroid surgery is rapidly becoming a common approach in busy endocrine surgery practices. The surgical concepts necessarily include a number of principles found within the realm of plastic surgery. [DESIGN]…

Modified facelift incision for parotidectomy.
The most commonly used incision for parotidectomies is the modified Blair incision. We have successfully used an alternative incision which allows good exposure, and leaves no neck scar. Between 1 March 1989 and 1 August 1991, 18 parotidect…
