Overview

The retrotracheal form is a rare variant of retrosternal goitre. The incidence is low, representing approximately 4% of all retrosternal goitres. The traditional approach to the treatment of this type of pathology is the cervical approach combined with high thoracotomy. Recently, however, new methods and technologies have begun to emerge that also open new possibilities for the surgical management of these conditions. The aim of this case report was to present the potential of a video-robotic approach in the treatment of retrotracheal goitre. The authors have successfully used this innovative method in the treatment of retrotracheal lesions, bringing hope for more effective and less invasive surgical interventions in this difficult-to-access area.
