Abstract

BACKGROUND: Transaxillary gasless endoscopic thyroidectomy (TGET) is a widely performed operation, but its side view angle and instrument interference have caused concerns for most surgical groups. The aim of this study was to introduce scene-guided camera assistance (SGA) and analyze its role in facilitating TGET.
