Article Synopsis
- Transoral Endoscopic Thyroidectomy Vestibular Approach (TOETVA) is a new surgical technique for thyroid surgery that avoids external cuts, with around 700 successful procedures reported.
- As this method gains popularity, careful patient selection and surgical preparation are crucial to minimize complications.
- Surgeon-performed ultrasonography (US) is highlighted as a key tool to aid in patient selection and surgical planning for TOETVA, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the procedure.

We depict the transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA). Patient selection criteria are (1) ultrasonographically (US) estimated thyroid diameter no larger than 10cm, (2) US estimated gland volume ≥45mL, (3) nodule size ≥5mm, (4) a benign tumor, such as a thyroid cyst, single-nodular goiter, or multinodular goiter, (5) follicular neoplasm, and (6) papillary microcarcinoma without evidence of metastasis. TOETVA is carried out through a three-port technique placed at the oral vestibule, one 10mm port for 30° endoscope and two additional 5mm ports for dissecting and coagulating instruments.
