Abstract:
Objective To compare the efficacy of different thyroidectomy surgery on postoperative quality of life in elderly patients with thyroid cancer.Methods 56 patients with thyroid cancer in the hospital from August 2011 to October 2014 were selected,and they were divided into observation group and control group according to the different methods of treatment.Patients in the observation group accepted small incision improvement while the control group accepted conventional thyroidectomy.The operation time,intra -operative blood loss,intra -operative blood transfusion,postoperative drainage,length of hospitalization period,complications occurring,VAS pain score and SF -36 score 1 month after treatment in two groups were recorded for statistical analysis.Results In the observation group,the operation time,intra -operative blood loss,intra -operative blood transfusion,postoperative drainage,length of hospitalization period were obviously lower than these in the control group,the difference was statistically significant (t =3.568,2.139,6.368,3.716,3.569,all P <0.05).The VAS pain score and SF -36 score in the observation group of (2.02 ±0.25)points and (77.21 ±8.13)points were obviously higher than these in the control group of (2.61 ±0.29)points and (43.46 ±5.63)points,the difference was statistically significant (t =3.867,4.568,all P <0.05).The rates of postoperative complication in the control group and the observation group were respectively 16.0% (4 /25 )and 35.5% (11 /31 ),the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =0.035,P <0.05 ). Conclusion Small incision improvement has a better curative effect with fewer complications and can improve quality of life for patients with thyroid cancer,thus it's worth popularization and application in clinic.
