The features of the technique are considered, the results of retrospective clinical studies are highlighted, in which TOaST is compared with transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy by vestibular approach and traditional open approach. Objective surgical indicators and subjective clinical and functional outcomes, including the assessment of pain severity, sensory disorders, and satisfaction with the cosmetic result, were considered. Special attention was paid to meta-analysis data, which reflects the comparative effectiveness and safety of various surgical approaches. The obtained results allow us to determine the place of the TOaST technique in modern thyroid surgery and outline the prospects for its further study.</p> <p>Aim. To analyze and summarize the data of modern literature devoted to the assessment of clinical efficacy, safety and clinical and functional results of endoscopic transoral and submental thyroidectomy.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>В статье представлен анализ современной литературы, посвященный выполнению трансорально-субментальной эндоскопической тиреоидэктомии (TOaST) при заболеваниях щитовидной железы. Рассмотрены особенности методики, освещены результаты ретроспективных клинических исследований, в которых TOaST сравнивается с трансоральной эндоскопической тиреоидэктомией вестибулярным доступом и традиционным открытым доступом. Рассмотрены объективные хирургические показатели и субъективные клинико-функциональные исходы, включающие оценку выраженности болевого синдрома, сенсорные нарушения и удовлетворенность косметическими результатами. Особое внимание уделено данным метаанализа, в котором оцениваются эффективность и безопасность различных хирургических подходов. Полученные результаты позволяют определить место TOaST в современной хирургии щитовидной железы и обозначить перспективы ее дальнейшего изучения.</p> <p>Цель работы – анализ и обобщение данных современной литературы, посвященной оценке клинической эффективности, безопасности и клинико-функциональных результатов TOaST.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>thyroid cancer</kwd><kwd>transoral submental endoscopic thyroidectomy</kwd><kwd>transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy</kwd><kwd>transoral endoscopic intervention by vestibular access</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>рак щитовидной железы</kwd><kwd>трансорально-субментальная эндоскопическая тиреоидэктомия</kwd><kwd>трансоральная эндоскопическая тиреоидэктомия</kwd><kwd>трансоральное эндоскопическое вмешательство вестибулярным доступом</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Filho A.M., Laversanne M., Ferlay J. et al.
