Abstract

Robot-assisted transaxillary thyroidectomy is a well-established remote-access thyroid procedure that has been demonstrated to be as safe and effective as its time-honored conventional clamp-and-tie counterpart. However, it has been incriminated for a set of unprecedented complications that surgeons need to be aware of and deal with appropriately.
