Thyroid Gland Surgery

The increased incidence of thyroid cancer in young females may raise concerns about visible hypertrophic scarring on the center of the neck after thyroid gland surgery. Therefore, endoscopic surgical procedures have attracted significant interest from patients with thyroid cancer, leading to the development of various endoscopic and robotic approaches. Although the cosmetic outcomes of current endoscopic and robotic thyroid surgeries have been excellent, all the procedures still require a large incision and extensive flap elevation. Transoral endoscopic thyroid surgery is a newly developed surgical method performed by inserting an endoscope through a mucosal opening created in the mouth, obviating the need for a skin incision. Additionally, the dissection area is relatively small and no dressings are required. Showering or shaving may resume the day after surgery and the port created within the oral mucous membrane generally heals within one week. Importantly, this approach is markedly less invasive than other endoscopic approaches. Although transoral endoscopic thyroid surgery has not yet been universally accepted, it may emerge as the preferred method for thyroid surgery in the near future.

OBJECTIVE: This study evaluates some “intrinsic risk factors” for a surgical injury of the external branch of superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN) based on its anatomic relationship with the thyroid gland. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: Seventy-two neck dissections were performed in 36 fresh human adult cadavers. Every EBSLN was dissected and categorized using Cernea's classification. All data regarding gender, ethnicity, stature, side of the neck, and volume of hemi thyroid were collected and statistically analyzed by the χ 2 –test and analysis of variance. RESULTS: Although no statistical differences were observed between genders ( P = 0.3770), ethnicities ( P = 0.9780) or sides of the neck ( P = 0.2523), statistical significance was reached regarding the nerve type when the groups were divided by stature ( P = 0.0006) and glandular volume ( P = 0.0007). CONCLUSION: Individual stature and volume of the hemi thyroid gland are probably involved in risk of the surgical EBSLN injury. SIGNIFICANCE: Surgeons should be aware of these anatomic findings in order to obtain a good voice-related outcome in the thyroidectomies.
