Abstract:
Objective To study the safety and efficacy of laparoseopic subtotal thyroidectomy for primary hyperthyroidism.Methods From January 2003 to January 2007,seventy-five patients with primary hyperthyroisism underwent subtotal thyroidectomy,among which thirty patients by laparoscopic procedure and forty-five patients by open surgery.The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.Results All the surgery were Successful.No patient in the endoscopic group was converted to open surgery.The mean operative times of endoscopic group and open surgery group were(110.5±12.3)min vs(98.8±15.5)min(t=3.46,P<0.05),the mean blood loss were(45.5±11.5)ml vs(65.8±12.6)ml(t=7.07,P<0.05),the inhospital fee were(11128.5±358.8)RMB yuan vs(6500.9±231.9)RMB yuan(t=67.92,P<0.05),the amount of drainage were(125.9±10.7)ml vs(46.5±9.4)ml(t=33.90,P<0.05),the days of drainage were(2.98±0.5)d vs(1.75±0.3)d(t=13.31,P<0.05),tlle use of analgeties was in 20.0%(6/30)vs 42.2%(19/45)(χ~2=4.00,P<0.05),the rate of temporary hoarseness wag 6.6%(2/30)vs 8.8%(4/45)(χ~2=0.12,P>0.05).There were 1 hypothyroidism and 1 recurrent hyperthyroidism in endoscopic group while 1 hypothyroidism and 2 recurrent hyperthyroidism in open surgery group after a 47.8 month's follow-up. Conclusions Endoscopic subtotal thyroideetomy for hyperthyroidism patients is safe,effective and presents a significant cosmetic advantage.
