Impact of body mass index on robotic transaxillary thyroidectomy
Abstract Obesity is associated with increased operating times and higher complication rates in many types of surgery. Its impact on robotic thyroidectomy however, is not well documented. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and robotic transaxillary...

Abstract Obesity is associated with increased operating times and higher complication rates in many types of surgery. Its impact on robotic thyroidectomy however, is not well documented.
