Read our Thyroid Neoplasms research guide โThis study doesn't follow the usual testing phases โ it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a new surgical technique called Dual-port Trans-subclavian Thyroid Endoscopic Surgery (DTS) for removing thyroid glands affected by cancer or benign tumors. The study compares this newer, minimally invasive approach to the traditional open surgery method that has been used for many years. The goal is to see if the new technique causes less pain, reduces healing time, and improves cosmetic results while remaining safe and effective.
While traditional thyroid surgery has been the standard for decades, it requires a larger neck incision that can be visible and cause more discomfort during recovery. The new minimally invasive approach aims to accomplish the same goal โ safely removing the thyroid โ but with smaller incisions, potentially less pain, faster recovery, and better cosmetic outcomes.

If you join this trial, you will be randomly assigned to receive either the new minimally invasive surgical technique or the traditional open surgery method for your thyroid removal. Both are established procedures performed by experienced surgeons at the hospital. After your surgery, you will have follow-up visits to monitor your recovery, check your surgical site, and assess your pain levels, healing, and satisfaction with the cosmetic results.
