Key Words Trans-oral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach; Trans-areolar approaches; Postoperative; Infections; swallowing difficulty
Core Tip Due to the increasing rate of thyroid nodules diagnosis, and the desire to avoid the unsightly cervical scar, remote thyroidectomies were invented and are increasingly performed. Transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach and trans-areolar approaches are the two most commonly used remote approaches. No previous meta-analysis has compared postoperative infections and swallowing difficulties among the two procedures. Therefore, we reviewed the literature on this important topic to the better choice of scarless surgery procedure.
