Objective To explore the feasibility of robotic assisted male thyroidectomy. Methods The data of 228 patients with robotic assisted thyroidectomy in our hospital from May 2015 to September 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. The data of tumor size, operative time, blood loss, amount of lymph node dissection, postoperative complications, hospital stay and tumor recurrence were compared between male group and female group. Results There was no significant diffe-rence in operative time, size of tumor resected, blood loss, hospital stay, postoperative complication and tumor recurrence between male group and female group. It was shown that no significant difficulty was present during robotic assisted thyroid surgery in men when compared with that in women. Conclusions Robotic assisted male thyroidectomy could be safe and effective, which is feasible with profit greatly from the robotic assisted surgical system.
