Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the surgical results of TOETVA treated papillary thyroid microcarcinoma at Hanoi medical university Hospital. Subject and methods: A descriptive study on 288 patients were diagnosed with papilary thyroid microcarcinoma, operated at Hanoi medical university Hospital from 01/ 2020 to 06/ 2021. Results: Female: 276 patients (95,8%). Mean age 37,01±8,84 age (17 to 67). Total thyroidectomy and central lymph node dissection: 40 cases (13,9%); lobectomy and isthmusectomy and ipsilateral central lymph node dissection: 243 cases (84,8%); lobectomy and isthmusectomy and excision of tumor and ipsilateral central lymph node dissection: 5 cases (1,7%). No case requied a conversion to an open procedure. Mean time operation: 119,87 ±27,78min; 92,09 ± 21,92min; 92,00 ± 22,80min, respectively. Transitent hypoparathyroidism: 1 case (0,3%); transitent vocal cord palsy: 7 cases (2,4%); numb chin: 8 patients (2,8%). There were no cases of permanent hypoparathyroidism, permanent vocal cord palsy and numb chin. Infection complications did not occur in our patients. Conclusion: The treatment of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma by TOETVA are safe, high effect.
