Since 2016, the transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy via vestibular approach (TOETVA) has gained popularity due to being a true \u2018scarless\u2019 procedure. However, minimally invasive thyroidectomy has not been widely adopted in the Philippines yet. From August 2019 to December 2019, nine patients (mean thyroid nodule size of 3.1\u00a0cm) underwent TOETVA with one open conversion due to adherent papillary cancer. Majority had a blood loss of &amp;lt;100\u00a0ml, whereas mean operative time was 149.8\u2009\u00b1\u200920.5\u00a0minutes. Five patients developed hypocalcemia (three transient), whereas two patients reported transient lower lip numbness. TOETVA is a safe and feasible novel procedure for both benign and malignant thyroid diseases. Care must be taken in selecting patients who opt for TOETVA, and that surgeons should reassess their limitations before implementing this technique in their surgical practice.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjab623","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,22]],"date-time":"2021-12-22T07:15:01Z","timestamp":1640157301000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Scarless
