• Conventional open thyroidectomy with di-rect approach through the neck Most Effective and safe method Noticeable scar in highly visible area
Introduction
• Robotic thyroidectomy via transaxillary ap-proach Excellent cosmesis Short term outcome : comparable with conven-
tional open thyroidectomy in low risk papillary thyroid cancer patients
Introduction
• The oncologic safety with surgical radicality of robotic thyroidectomy should be prior to cosmesis in managing thyroid cancer
• Robotic thyroidectomy via trans axillary ap-proach has been criticized about complete excision of contralateral lobe
• The aim of this study :to show the surgical completeness of robotic thyroidectomy by comparing with conventional open thyroidectomy in papillary thyroid carcinoma
Introduction
• 110 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma were enrolled from April, 2009 through February 2011
• All underwent total thyroidectomty and 30 mci RAI ablation therapy
• 55 underwent conventional open thyroidectomy55 underwent robotic thyroidectomy
• Definite extrathyroidal tumor invasion, lateral neck node metastases, perinodal infiltration at a metastatic lymph node, or distant metastasis were excluded
Patients and Methods
• Tumor located in the thyroid dorsal area (particularly at the tracheoesopheal groove) with posterior capsular invasion or extension to an adjacent structure were also excluded in robotic thyroidectomy
• Extent of surgery : According to the ATA guidelinesProphylactic ipsilateral CCND : performed for all the patients
• 12 patients were excluded ( ex. pregnancy, pt’s refusal) : three open thyroidectomynine robotic thyroidectomy
• Analysis of surgical completeness : Radioiodine uptake Postoperative serum Tg level
Patients and Methods
• Radioactive iodine uptakecalculate RAI uptake (%) in thyroid bed area (thyroid/whole body, thyroid/brain)
30mci RAI ablation therapy at postoperative 2~3 months
Diagnostic scan at 1 year after 1st RAI ablation Before 131-I Tx, at least 3-4 weeks Levothyrox-
ine withdrawal with low iodine diet or rhTSH adminis-tration
pre RAI TSH level > 30 μIU/mL
Patients and Methods
• Serum Tg level TSH stimulated Tg at 1st RAI ablation and
diagnostic scan TSH suppressed Tg : 6 month after RAI
therapy
• The patient’s clinicopathologic characteristics, surgical outcomes, RAI uptake, serum Tg level were compared between the two groups.

Results
† Diagnostic scan was performed at 12months later after 1st RAI ablation
Robotic thyroidectomy showed significant high uptake at RAI ablation therapy compared with conventional open thyroidectomy.
However, stimulated Tg level at RAI therapy showed no significant difference between two groups.
Remnant thyroid tissue after robotic thy-roidectomy can successfully managed by 30mci RAI ablations.(RAI uptake, stimulated Tg at diagnostic scan show no differences between two groups.)
Robotic thyroidectomy is safe and feasible in managing low risk papillary thyroid carcinoma patients
Conclusion
