TOETVA parathyroid autofluorescence detection: hANDY-i endoscopy attachment

Stefanie Seo,

et al.

Abstract: BackgroundTreatment options for thyroid pathologies have expanded to include scarless and remote access methods such as the transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA). Currently, no standardized methods exist for locating parathyroid glands (PGs) in patients undergoing TOETVA, which can lead to parathyroid injury and subsequent hypocalcemia. This early feasibility study describes and evaluates the hANDY-i endoscopic attachment for detecting PGs in transoral thyroidectomy.MethodsWe used a p… Show more
