The 2nd International Thyroid NOTES Conference was held on 8–9 March 2017. It introduced hands-on training in transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy via the vestibular approach (TOETVA) using soft cadavers, achieving approximately 99% tissue fidelity through a proprietary preservation technique — allowing participants to practise the operation with near-human realism.
