Journal Article
Transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy submental vestibular approach for early-stage papillary thyroid carcinoma: a systematic review and meta-analysis
2024
Overview
Purpose
Our study aimed to compare the effectiveness and complications of the transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy submental vestibular approach (TOETSMVA) versus the transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA) or conventional open thyroidectomy (COT) in patients with early-stage papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).
Methods
We searched online databases up to January 2024. The outcomes were analyzed using RevMan 5.4 and inverse variance.
Results
Seven studies (two RCTs and five retrospective cohort studies) were included. We established higher significance differences for TOETSMVA in comparison with TOETVA in terms of all primary outcomes; operation time, hospital stay, number of resected lymph nodes [MD -21.05, 95% CI= -30.98, -11.12;
p
< 0.0001], [MD -1.76, 95% CI= -2.21, -1.32,
p
< 0.00001], [MD -2.99, 95% CI= -19.75, 13.76,
p
< 0.73], [MD -0.83, 95% CI = -1.19 to -0.47;
p
< 0.00001], respectively, except the drainage volume, it showed no difference [MD -2.99, 95% CI= -19.75, 13.76,
p
< 0.73]. In secondary outcomes, it was favored only in mandibular numbness and return to normal diet outcomes. Additionally, TOETSMVA compared with COT showed a significant difference in drainage volume, pain, cosmetic effect, and satisfaction score.
Conclusions
TOETSMVA showed a significant improvement compared to the TOETVA in operation time, hospital stay, number of resected lymph nodes, mandibular numbness, and return to normal diet but did not show a difference in drainage volume. However, TOETSMVA was better in cosmetic effect, drainage volume, satisfaction, and pain scores compared with COT. Further RCTs with larger sample size, multicentral, and longer follow-up are necessary to evaluate the limitations.
