Small incision in thyroid surgery by patient with large goiter
Minimally invasive thyroid surgery is the surgery of choice for certain patients to be operated on by an experienced surgeon. The advantages of the operation are a small postoperative scar, minor postoperative pain and a shorter postoperative hospitalisation. For certain patients with large goiter, it is also possible to make a small incision given the size of the thyroid gland, without an increased risk of intraoperative and postoperative complications.
