Includes numerous color photographs and drawings that augment the text Minimally Invasive and
Robotic Thyroid and Parathyroid Surgery is the first textbook which includes a comprehensive
review of both minimally invasive and robotic thyroid and parathyroid techniques.
Over the last several years there has been a rapid expansion in the number of different surgical
approaches available to patients undergoing thyroid and parathyroid surgery. This book consolidates
these in one source and focuses on both the philosophy and techniques of these procedures.
For thyroid surgery, the text covers the full range of minimally invasive procedures and several
of the most widely adopted remote access techniques. Several related procedures are also discussed,
including minimally invasive approaches to central and lateral neck dissection. For parathyroid surgery,
several minimally invasive techniques are covered, including radioguided surgery.
Written by experts in the field of thyroid and parathyroid surgery, Minimally Invasive and Robotic Thyroid
and Parathyroid Surgery serves as a critical resource for both experienced and less experience surgeons,
fellows, residents, and students interested in understanding the breadth of this field or learning
the specific steps of a particular technique.
