2. Introduction
• Minimally invasive techniques -integral part of
many surgical sub-specialities.
• Nodular thyroid goitre (NTG) -commonest
endocrine surgical disorders
• Various endoscopic techniques and novel
routes
8. Pre op preparation
• Pre-operative chest physiotherapy and
incentive spirometry.
• Optimisation of comorbidities
• Maintaining a good oral hygiene for 2 days
before surgery.
9. Surgical technique
• Supine with 30° reverse Trendelenburg
position and extension of the neck with arms
placed by the side of the chest.
• Nasotracheal intubation
• After draping, the neck and oral cavity are
prepared.
10. • 10-mm frenulotomy incision
• Two 5-mm lateral incisions, 2 cm away on
either side of frenulotomy site.
• Adrenaline/normal saline solution used for
hydrodissection
• Veress needle was used to hydrodissect the
chin, submental region and neck in
subplatysmal plane.
11. • Hydrodissection
– Vertically : between chin and jugular notch
– Horizontally : between medial borders of both the
sternomastoid muscles.
• Long hemostat was used to bluntly dissect.
12. • Ports
– 11-mm trocar: through frenulotomy -30° camera
– two 5-mm trocars : through lateral port sites -
working ports
PORT ACCESS THOUGH
LOWER GINGIVAL SULCUS
THREE TROCAR PLACEMENT
13. • Cervical linea alba opened up.
INTRA OP VIEW AFTER CUTTING
LINEA ALBA
14. • Plane developed between the sternothyroid
and sternohyoid muscles.
• 3–0 vicryl stitch was applied through the
sternohyoid muscle and skin.
• Sternothyroid muscle is cut.
15. • Thyroid gland was retracted medially.
• Ipsilateral superior pole is skeletonised.
• Clip is applied to superior vascular pedicle.
16. • Sectioned with HS close to the thyroid gland.
• Further rotated medially to identify
– superior parathyroid gland (SPG)
– recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN).
17. • Inferior thyroid artery, branches and ligament
of Berry (LB) are sectioned close to the thyroid
gland.
18. • For hemithyroidectomy
– Isthmus sectioned at junction of isthmus and
opposite lobe
• For total thyroidectomy
– same procedure repeated on the contralateral
side.
19. • Endobag inserted and the specimen extracted.
• Under vision through one of the ports.
EXTRACTION OF SPECIMEN THROUGH
CENTRAL PORT
20. • No drain placed.
• Cervical linea alba approximated with
intracorporeal suturing using 3–0 vicryl.
CLOSURE OF PORT SITE
22. Results
• 104/123 (87.7%) underwent hemithyroidectomy.
• 19/123 (12.3%) underwent total thyroidectomy.
• The mean age of the cohort was 23 ± 4.2 years
• Average duration of the disease was 10.4 ± 5.2
months
23. • Operative time of ETOVR was 116 ± 16 min
• Encouraged for early ambulation and returned
to normal activity and diet within 2 days.
• Only oral liquids for first 2 days.
• Discharged on the 3rd post- operative day.
24. • No episodes of
– symptomatic or permanent hypocalcemia
– neck hematoma
– significant pain
– oral cavity bleeding
– recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy
– surgical site infections.
• Incidence of temporary biochemical
hypocalcemia was 22/123 (18%).
26. • The objectives of any ET technique are best
cosmesis with cure and low morbidity.
• Indications for surgical thyroidectomy
– pressure symptoms
– cosmetic concern
– suspected or fear of malignancy.
28. • complication of gas-dependent ET
– hypercarbia.
– subcutaneous emphysema
– mediastinal emphysema
– cardiac arrhythmias
• Morbidity -high insufflation pressures
• Avoided: standard low insufflation pressures
(5–6 mmHg)
29. Conclusion
• This novel ETOVR technique appears to be a
safe and optimal approach of thyroidectomy
for benign thyroid nodules.
• Proper case selection, expertise in minimal
access surgery and extensive experience in
thyroid surgery are key to the success of this
technique.
No consensus on a gold standard ET technique
In this study they have tested transoral ET through vestibular route for its applicability, efficacy and safety.
1.biochemical, imaging workup and management plan.
3.(prophylactic oral antibiotics, brushing twice, gargling with antiseptic mouthwash and avoiding sweets)
1.dissected through the orbicularis oris muscle up to the chin with diathermy.
2.were placed in lower vestibule over the lower lip
connected with filled in syringe
through all the three port sites.
2.through the hydrodissected areas for creating working space.
1.on the ipsilateral side of the offending parathyroid gland adenoma.
2. by teasing off the fibres of the sternothyroid and any adhesions.
3. After adequate space is created,
1.leaving SPG and RLN intact on body side.
1.This helped in preventing any inadvertent breach of capsule and spillage of adenomatous tissue/cells.
1.If drain was deemed necessary, a small calibre suction drain was placed through a small stab wound in the submental region.
2. Trocar removed, interrupted stiches with 3–0 monocryl
During the study period of 28 months, 123 cases of NTG were operated with ETOVR
