Endoscopic neck surgery can achieve comparable results to conventional methods for small thyroid cancers. This minimally invasive approach shows promise for treating malignant thyroid tumors.

Area of Science:

  • Surgical Oncology
  • Endocrine Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Endoscopic neck surgery has gained traction in Japan over the last five years.
  • Challenges persist, particularly regarding the indications for endoscopic procedures in malignant thyroid tumors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and radicality of endoscopic neck surgery for small thyroid cancers.
  • To describe recent surgical experience with endoscopic procedures for suspected or confirmed thyroid carcinoma.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of five patients undergoing endoscopic neck surgery.
  • Preoperative diagnosis of definite or suspected thyroid carcinoma.

Main Results:

  • Endoscopic neck surgery achieved radicality comparable to conventional open surgery for small thyroid cancers.

  • The technique was applied to patients with definite or suspected thyroid carcinoma.

    • Conclusions:

    • Endoscopic neck surgery is a viable option for achieving oncological control in select cases of small thyroid carcinoma.
    • Further research is warranted to refine indications and optimize techniques for endoscopic thyroid cancer surgery.
