Purpose:Remote access thyroid surgery using a bilateral axillary breast approach (BABA) or a transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA) are increasingly performed worldwide. In the Caucasus, these methods were first applied in the Republic of Georgia. This study compares these two methods of endoscopic thyroid surgery performed on patients in a tertiary hospital in Tbilisi, Georgia. Methods: Between December 2015 and January 2018, 41 patients underwent endoscopic thyroid surgery at the Aversi Clinic, including 32 who underwent BABA endoscopic thyroidectomy for benign nodules and nine who underwent TOETVA for thyroid cancers. Patients’ medical records were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Tumors were significantly larger (2.38±0.38cm versus 1.70±0.31cm, p-value < 0.001), operation time was significantly longer (177.66±21.02 min versus 116.66±5.59 min, p-value < 0.001), and blood loss was significantly greater (149.07±28.10 ml versus 102.22±8.33 ml, p-value < 0.001) in patients who underwent BABA than TOETVA. There were no significant difference in postoperative complications between the two groups. Conclusions: Remote access thyroid surgery, either BABA or TOETVA, was successfully started, without harmful complications, at the Aversi Clinic in Tbilisi, Georgia. BABA is suitable for large sized benign nodules and TOETVA for thyroid cancers with central lymph node dissection.
