Abstract:

We present a case report of robotic transaxillar approach thyroidectomy of a huge retrosternal goiter. A 37 year-old female with an enlarged retrosternal goiter underwent a transaxillary robotassisted gasless thyroidectomy in the American Hospital of Paris. The main outcome measures were feasibility and safety of this technique. A huge 15 cm retrosternal goiter was completely resected via the transaxillar incision. There was no conversion to open or combined approach. There were no perioperative or postoperative complications. Recently more complicated cases and large thyroid glands can
