Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Endoscopic Neck Procedures

Context:

  • Cervicoscopy emerged with laparoscopic parathyroidectomy in 1996.
  • Endoscopic and video-assisted thyroidectomy followed, with specific limitations.
  • These techniques are established therapeutic options in specialized centers.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cervicoscopy in neck surgery.
  • To compare cervicoscopic procedures with traditional open surgery.
  • To explore future applications of cervicoscopy.

Summary:

  • Laparoscopic parathyroidectomy and video-assisted thyroidectomy provide superior cosmetic outcomes and less postoperative distress compared to open surgery.
  • These minimally invasive neck surgeries are safe, feasible, and have comparable complication rates to conventional methods.
