Transoral Endoscopic Thyroidectomy Vestibular Approach (TOETVA)
Definition
Transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that involves the removal of the thyroid gland through the oral cavity. This approach utilizes endoscopic instruments inserted through small incisions in the lower lip vestibule, allowing for a scarless and less painful surgery compared to traditional thyroidectomy methods.
