Endoscopic subtotal thyroidectomy performed via breast approach is a technically feasible and safe procedure with excellent cosmetic results for patients with Graves' disease. In patients with markedly enlarged thyroid glands, subtotal thyroidectomy can be achieved through a fractional resection strategy.
