This surgical atlas illustrates the various successful thyroid
surgery techniques of world-renowned surgeons. Some approaches
presented include total thyroidectomy, right thyroid lobectomy,
left thyroid lobectomy, minimally invasive approach to
thyroidectomy, video-assisted approach to thyroidectomy, and
endoscopic approaches, such as the transaxillary approach,
bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA), and trans-oral thyroid
surgery (TOEVA). The Atlas is intended for a broader audience than
publications for other procedures since thyroidectomy is among the
most common neck procedures. The Atlas of Thyroid
Surgery will help all surgeons caring for patients with
thyroid disease minimize complications and perform successful
thyroidectomy.
This Atlas is designed to illustrate different techniques on how to
perform successful parathyroidectomy by using traditional four
gland exploration approach and minimally invasive approaches, such
as the open minimally invasive approach, video-assisted approach,
back-door approach, transoral endoscopic parathyroidectomy approach
(TOEPVA), and endoscopic lateral parathyroidectomy approach. It
illustrates removal of a right and left, and superior and inferior
parathyroid glands. Written by renowned endocrine surgeons and
experts in the field, each chapter begins with a case description
that defines the main aspect of surgery. Each picture, which is
taken intraoperatively, is accompanied by corresponding drawings
for easier understanding of the anatomical structures and steps of
the procedure. In addition, most of the authors provided a video of
the same case as it is depicted in the chapter. The Atlas also
gives some common pitfalls of the procedure in an effort to avoid
complications and improve patient outcomes. Atlas of Parathyroid
Surgery provides an indispensable source of knowledge to all
surgeons, those who just started their career, and those who are in
the more advanced stages of their practice and are learning new
techniques of parathyroidectomy.
