Therefore, minimally invasive endoscopic thyroidectomy with central neck dissection (CND) emerged and showed well-accepted results with improved cosmetic outcome, accelerated healing, and comforting the patients. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of robotic total thyroidectomy with CND via bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA), compared with conventional open procedure in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma. Methods: One-hundred patients with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma from March 2014 to January 2015 in Jinan Military General Hospital of People's Liberation Army (PLA) were randomly assigned to robotic group or conventional open approach group (17 = 50 in each group). The total operative time, estimated intraoperative blood loss, numbers of lymph node removed, visual analog scale (VAS), postoperative hospital stay time, complications, and numerical scoring system (NSS, used to assess cosmetic effect) were analyzed. Results: The robotic total thyroidectomy with CND via BABA was successfully performed in robotic group. There were no conversion from the robotic surgeries to open or endoscopic surgery. The subclinical central lymph node metastasis rate was 35%. The mean operative time of the robotic group was longer than that of the conventional open approach group (118.8± 16.5 min vs. 90.7± 10.3 min, P 〈 0.05). The study showed significant differences between the two groups in terms of the VASs (2.1 ± 1.0 vs. 3.8 ±~ 1.2, P 〈 0.05) and NSS (8.9 ± 0.8 vs. 4.8 ± 1.7, P 〈 0.05). The differences between the two groups in the estimated intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay time, numbers of lymph node removed, postoperative thyroglobulin levels, and complications were not statistically significant (all P 〉 0.05). Neither iatrogenic implantation nor metastasis occurred in punctured porous channel or chest wall in both groups. Postoperative cosmetic results were very satisfactory in the robotic group. Conclusions: Robotic total thyroidectomy with CND via BABA is safe and effective for Chinese patients with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma who worry about the neck scars.展开更多
Introduction: The aim of the study was to compare the feasibility and safety of endoscopic thyroid lobectomy via axillary-breast-shoulder approach (ET via ABS) with a conventional open thyroid lobectomy (OT). Methods:...Introduction: The aim of the study was to compare the feasibility and safety of endoscopic thyroid lobectomy via axillary-breast-shoulder approach (ET via ABS) with a conventional open thyroid lobectomy (OT). Methods: From November 2014 to December 2015, 20 patients with unilateral benign thyroid nodules were treated with ET via ABS and another 20 patients were treated with an OT. We analyzed the clinical characteristics postoperative complications, pain, and patient satisfaction. Results: No statistically significant differences occurred between groups except the mean ages of the OT group and the ET via ABS group were 55 and 44 years, respectively (p = 0.015). The mean operative time was almost the same in both groups (116 min in the OT group and 114 min in the ET via ABS group). Blood loss was significantly higher in the OT group than in the ET via ABS group (p = 0.042) but postoperative drainage was detected more in the ET via ABS group (p p = 0.026). The hospital stay was three days in OT group and four days in ET via ABS group (p = 0.909). Postoperative complications such as hematoma, hoarseness, dysphagia, and prolonged subcutaneous emphysema were detected only in the ET via ABS group but without statistical difference. More patients were “very satisfied” with the treatment in the ET via ABS group than in the OT group. Conclusion: The ET via ABS is as safe and effective as the OT for patients with unilateral thyroid nodules. With less early postoperative pain and higher patient satisfaction, this endoscopic thyroidectomy approach should be considered in patients who concern about cosmetic results.展开更多

The care of the breast cancer patient requires in many centres. The care of breast cancer patient is undertaken as a joint venture between the surgeon, medical oncologist, radiotherapist, pathologist and allied health professionals such as the clinical nurse specialist as well as counsellors. This is a case of a 39-years-old Malay woman presented to HUSM with a history of ulcerating breast lump with bloody pus discharge on the right breast. An initial mammogram study showed lesion suspicious of malignancy, and histopathological examination was consistent with invasive ductal carcinoma. She received neoadjuvant chemotherapy before proceeding to right modified radical mastectomy with axillary clearance and immediate chest wall reconstruction. Detailed discussion on the diagnosis, treatment, surgical intervention and progress of the patient with reference to available literature reviews are presented.展开更多
