ABSTRACT
We are presenting perspectives of how thyroid surgery has evolved from the past to the future. Technological process in thyroid surgery is the history of modern surgery and the evolution of knowledge of thyroid gland led us to the fields of organ preservation, hemostasis, cancer surgery, and minimally invasive surgery. Thyroid surgery in the present time is characterized by low mortality rate, low complication rate, and considerations about the quality of life of patients. Robotic surgery has been adopted to thyroid surgery for these reasons and now has advanced significantly to perform safe and effective operations. The future of thyroid surgery will be evolved beyond our imagination; however the advances of the skills should be focused on the safety and convenience of patients.
