Single-Incision Gasless Endoscopic Total Thyroidectomy Via Subclavian Approach Versus Open Surgery for PTC

Recruiting
Conditions
Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
Interventions
Procedure: single-incision, gasless endoscopic total thyroidectomy with central compartment neck dissection
Procedure: conventional open surgery
Registration Number
NCT06592755
Lead Sponsor
Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University
Brief Summary

Historically, performing a contralateral thyroid lobectomy and lymph node dissection via the subclavian approach was considered challenging. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of single-incision gasless endoscopic total thyroidectomy and central compartment neck dissection via the subclavian approach (SCA) in comparison to conventional open surgery for the treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) retrospectively.
