Thyroidectomy is performed to treat conditions affecting the thyroid gland, such as thyroid cancer, hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), or large goitres (enlarged thyroid). Removing part or all of the thyroid can alleviate symptoms and prevent the spread of disease.
Minimally invasive techniques are used to remove the thyroid gland or part of it while preserving surrounding structures, such as the parathyroid glands and vocal cords. This often involves small incisions and advanced imaging technology to ensure precise removal.
Reduced risk of complications, minimal scarring, and faster recovery are key benefits. Minimally invasive approaches also help preserve normal thyroid function and reduce the need for hormone replacement therapy.
This surgery removes one or more parathyroid glands, often due to hyperparathyroidism, which can lead to high calcium levels in the blood and various symptoms such as bone pain and kidney stones.
Targeted parathyroidectomy involves using minimally invasive techniques to remove the affected glands while preserving healthy ones. Advanced imaging and intraoperative testing help ensure that the right glands are removed and healthy glands are spared.
Effective symptom relief, minimal scarring, and improved calcium balance are significant benefits. The surgery typically leads to a rapid improvement in symptoms and overall quality of life.
Neck dissection is performed to treat head and neck cancers by removing affected lymph nodes and surrounding tissues. This helps to prevent the spread of cancer and provides accurate staging of the disease
The procedure involves removing lymph nodes, and possibly adjacent tissues, through carefully planned incisions. Advanced techniques are used to ensure thorough cancer removal while minimizing impact on cosmetic appearance and functional structures, such as nerves and blood vessels.
Accurate staging and effective cancer treatment are key advantages. The approach helps to preserve appearance and function while ensuring a comprehensive removal of cancerous tissues.
Adrenalectomy involves removing one or both adrenal glands to treat conditions such as tumours (e.g., adrenal adenomas or cancers) or hormone disorders (e.g., Cushing's syndrome).
This surgery is typically performed using laparoscopic or robotic-assisted techniques, allowing for precise removal of the adrenal glands with minimal disruption to surrounding tissues.
The minimally invasive nature of the procedure results in faster recovery, less pain, and minimal scarring. Patients often experience a quicker return to normal activities and reduced risk of postoperative complications.
Parotidectomy is performed to remove tumours from the parotid gland, which is one of the major salivary glands located near the jaw. It helps in treating benign or malignant tumors while preserving facial nerve function.
The surgery involves carefully removing the tumour while preserving the facial nerve and other critical structures. Minimally invasive techniques or traditional approaches may be used depending on the tumour’s size and location.
Effective treatment of the tumour with maintained facial movement and sensation is the primary benefit. The minimally invasive approach reduces recovery time and scarring.
This surgery addresses tumours or chronic infections in the submandibular gland, another major salivary gland located beneath the jaw.
Advanced surgical techniques ensure thorough removal of the affected tissue while preserving vital structures such as nerves and blood vessels. Minimally invasive methods are often used to reduce trauma.
Patients benefit from optimal function and appearance post-surgery. Minimally invasive approaches can reduce recovery time and minimize scarring.
