Thyroidectomy outcomes were analyzed in 100 patients, with most experiencing symptom relief. However, complications like recurrent laryngeal nerve injury and hypoparathyroidism occurred, highlighting the need for surgical precision.

Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Otolaryngology

Background:

  • Thyroidectomy is a common surgical procedure for various thyroid conditions.
  • Understanding complication rates and patient outcomes is crucial for surgical improvement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the outcomes and complication rates following thyroidectomy.
  • To identify factors influencing patient recovery and surgical success.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective follow-up study of 100 patients who underwent thyroidectomy.
  • Analysis of patient demographics, preoperative diagnoses, and postoperative complications.

Main Results:

  • Multinodular goiter was the most frequent diagnosis (74%).

  • Sixty-five percent of patients reported complete symptom relief post-surgery.
  • Complications included recurrent laryngeal nerve injury (3%), hypoparathyroidism (1%), hypothyroidism (4%), and neck swelling (14%).

    • Conclusions:

    • Thyroidectomy can effectively relieve symptoms, but potential complications require careful management.
    • Meticulous surgical technique and thorough anatomical knowledge are essential to minimize adverse events.
