Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
Conditions
Brief summary
Historically, performing a contralateral thyroid lobectomy and lymph node dissection via the subclavian approach was considered challenging. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of single-incision gasless endoscopic total thyroidectomy and central compartment neck dissection via the subclavian approach (SCA) in comparison to conventional open surgery for the treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) retrospectively.

Interventions
The included patients chose to undergo single-incision, gasless endoscopic total thyroidectomy with central compartment neck dissection via the subclavian approach based on patients preference.
These patients chose to undergo total thyroidectomy with central compartment neck dissection via conventional open surgery based on patients preference.
