Abstract

Although various groups have described their experiences with robotic transaxillary thyroidectomy, to our knowledge, robotic central neck dissection has not been described in the North American literature. We here demonstrate the technique of robotic central neck dissection at the time of transaxillary total thyroidectomy. The procedure was performed under general anesthesia through a 6-cm right axillary incision. The robotic camera and 2 working robotic arms were used for the procedure.
