Abstract
Reoperation for recurrent papillary thyroid cancer (RPTC) is much more complex than primary surgery is, with a higher rate of complications. We describe, for the first time, the use of the Orbeye™ surgical microscope/exoscope for the treatment of RPTC with lymphadenectomy. This system offers 4K, three-dimensional magnified and illuminated imaging without the need for eyepieces. Magnification of the field of view facilitates a more precise dissection, preserving the anatomical structure. Currently, the Orbeye™ is regularly used in neurosurgery; however, its potential in conventional open surgery has not yet been fully exploited. Owing to its magnification capacity, the Orbeye™ exoscope is a valuable tool to help surgeons identify and preserve the integrity of the recurrent laryngeal nerves and parathyroids during thyroid surgery.
