Abstract
Introduction Transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA) is an innovative scarless thyroid surgery technique. Aims & Objectives This mini review aims to summarize the current status of TOETVA and evaluate evidence on its feasibility, safety, and patient-centered outcomes. Observations Multiple studies have demonstrated TOETVA is safe and effective for thyroid lobectomy and total thyroidectomy in selected patients. It provides excellent cosmetic results compared to open surgery. Discussion TOETVA is still evolving and has limitations including technical difficulty and narrow patient criteria. Larger studies with long-term follow up can better establish its role. Conclusion TOETVA is a promising new technique for scarless thyroid surgery, but requires further studies to determine long-term outcomes.
