Robotic Thyroid Surgery
What is Robotic Thyroid Surgery?
Transoral Robotic Surgery (TORS) is a minimally invasive robotic-assisted procedure used to treat tumors located in the mouth, throat (oropharynx), and voice box (larynx).
It allows surgeons to remove cancerous or benign growths through the mouth without making external incisions.
Your Guide to Robotic Thyroid Surgery
-Benign thyroid nodules (non-cancerous lumps)
-Multinodular goiter (enlarged thyroid with multiple lumps)
-Thyroid cancer (early-stage and small tumors)
-Overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) not managed by medications
These conditions can result from hormonal imbalances, autoimmune diseases, genetic factors, or environmental exposures (e.g., radiation).
You might need evaluation for thyroid surgery if you experience:
-A visible lump or swelling in the neck
-Difficulty swallowing or breathing
-Hoarseness or voice changes
-Unexplained weight changes
-Fatigue, anxiety, or irregular heartbeat
-A thyroid nodule found during a scan or check-up
Not all thyroid nodules require surgery—Dr. Nitin Singhal will assess if robotic surgery is the right option based on tests and diagnosis.
How Robotic Thyroid Surgery is Performed :
The patient is given general anesthesia
A few tiny incisions are made in hidden areas (like underarm)
A robotic camera and arms are inserted to reach the thyroid
The surgeon controls the robot to safely remove the affected part of the thyroid
The area is closed with minimal scarring and faster healing
This technique reduces damage to surrounding tissues and offers quicker recovery compared to open surgery.
Why Robotic Surgery?
Faster Recovery Time
Low Risk of Infection
Lesser Scars
Less Discomfort After Surgery
Shorter Hospital Stay
Speedier Return to Daily Life
