About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Thyroid Nodule focused on measuring Mini-flap, Bilateral axillo-breast approach, Da vinci, Robot-assisted thyroid surgery

Eligibility Criteria

19 Years - 69 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • subjects who will have thyroid surgery
  • subjects who has no evidence of lymph node metastasis on palpation and imaging (cN0)
  • subjects who has thyroid nodule under 4cm (<cT2)
  • subjects who has no distant metastasis (M0)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • subjects who has clinical evidence of lymph node metastasis (cN1a or cN1b)
  • subjects who has both thyroid nodule
  • subjects who underwent any radiotherapy on neck
  • subjects who has primary hyperparathyroidism
  • subjects who underwent head and neck surgery
  • subjects who disagree to do this trial

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change from baseline in pain, as measured by the Visual Analog Score(VAS)
Visual Analog Score for pain, range from 0 to 10, Higher the values represents more pains
change from baseline in pain, as measured by the number of analgesics uses
number of analgesics(additional ketorolac uses)
change from baseline in Sensory change, as measured by the monofilaments
Six monofilaments were used to measure the pressure threshold of the 2 chest zones and 2 neck zones

Secondary Outcome Measures

Incidence of vocal cord palsy
Check vocal cord palsy that means injury of the recurrent laryngeal nerve with a direct laryngoscope
change from baseline in Hypoparathyroidism, as measured by parathyroid hormone level
check PTH (parathyroid hormone) level

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
In this study, a randomized controlled study was conducted between two groups of 40 recipients of conventional flap during BABA robotic-thyroidectomy and 40 recipients of Mini-flap method during BABA robotic-thyroidectomy. In this study, we tried to determine whether the use of Mini-flap can reduce sensory loss and pain after BABA robotic-thyroidectomy.
