Background: Robotic technology has proven safe and effective for thyroidectomy procedures. Few studies have addressed the quality-of-life outcomes of robotic thyroidectomy compared with conventional thyroidectomy. Materials and Methods: The database of a tertiary medical center was retrospectively reviewed for all patients with thyroid disease who had undergone robotic hemithyroidectomy in 2012-2020. All patients treated by transaxillary robotic surgery and a similar number of randomly selected patients treated by conventional cervical surgery completed a standardized self-administered thyroid disease-specific quality-of-life (QOL) questionnaire (ThyPRO). Clinical data were derived from the medical files. The results were compared using mean comparison tests and multivariate logistic regression models. Results: The cohort consisted of 131 patients: 63 after robotic thyroidectomy and 68 after conventional thyroidectomy. The mean age was 38.87 ± 14.11 and 58.85 ± 14.1 years, respectively (P < .0001). The robotic hemithyroidectomy group reported better QOL outcomes in physical and mental health parameters, including decreased anxiety, depression, lower sex life impairment, and cognitive impairment scores (P < .0001). Furthermore, after adjusting for age, gender, malignancy status, and surgical approach, we found that patients undergoing robotic hemithyroidectomy had a lower probability of experiencing depressive symptoms than the conventional hemithyroidectomy group (odds ratio = 0.31; 95% confidence interval, 0.11-0.88). Of interest, no significant difference in cosmetic outcomes was found. Conclusions: Patients who underwent robotic thyroidectomy report better postoperative QOL after surgery than patients operated by the conventional approach in terms of anxiety, depression, cognitive and sex-life scores.
