[Pay attention to the prevention of intraoperative complications of total thyroidectomy]
Abstract:
The incidence of thyroid cancer has increased sharply year by year. Thyroid cancer ranked from the 14th in 2003 to the 4th in 2012 most common cancers in female in Beijing. Surgery is still main solution for thyroid cancer, there are two operative procedure for thyroid cancer: total thyroidectomy, lateral lobectomy and isthmus resection. The surgeon must pay attention to intraoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve and parathyroid injury, with particular emphasis on the prevention of total thyroidectomy complications. Precise dissection of thyroid capsule, intraoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring and application of lymphatic mapping to recognize and protect negative stained parathyroid by using carbon nanoparticles tracer is prone to reduce the incidence of recurrent laryngeal nerve and parathyroid injury in the total thyroidectomy.
