About

Dr. Mira Milas is a pioneering endocrine surgeon whose work has fundamentally advanced the field of minimally invasive thyroid surgery. Her primary research focus is the development and refinement of robotic-assisted techniques, most notably the robotic transaxillary total thyroidectomy. In her landmark 2013 paper, "Robotic transaxillary total thyroidectomy through a single axillary incision" (42 citations), she demonstrated a revolutionary approach that eliminates visible neck scars. Her earlier 2010 case report (28 citations) was equally critical, detailing how robotic technology overcomes the limitations of traditional endoscopic surgery by providing a superior 3-dimensional view and enhanced instrument dexterity. Beyond her surgical innovations, Dr. Milas is a leading educator and author. She co-edited the authoritative textbook *Thyroid and Parathyroid Diseases* (2016), praised by *Doody's Review* as a "high-quality, thorough and insightful resource" that serves as both a surgical atlas and a guide to current practice. Through her groundbreaking techniques and comprehensive scholarship, Dr. Milas has significantly improved patient outcomes and set new standards for surgical excellence in endocrine surgery.
