الوصف: Conventional open thyroidectomy is still considered the gold standard for thyroid surgery. Transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (also known as TOETVA) is often considered to be more advantageous than the other approaches, such as minimally invasive video assisted thyroidectomy, thyroidectomy via breast/axillary/retroauricular access, bilateral axillo-breast approach and axillo- bilateral breast approach. In this scoping review, we discuss the risks and the benefits of this surgical approach and its medico- legal and ethical implications, particularly focusing on the importance of practice on cadavers. Currently, there is little scientific evidence supporting TOETVA, since there are few papers on the comparison with the traditional open thyroidectomy that have been published and thus little data on the long-term outcomes of TOETVA are available. Since the better cosmetic outcome currently represents the main indication for this surgical technique, substantial medico- legal and ethical issues arise. Moreover, practice on cadavers can help surgeons to develop the technical and non-technical skills required to perform efficiently and safely this new surgical procedure.
