Abstract:
Objective To investigate the protective role of two-step decapping technique for superior parathyroid glands in total thyroidectomy surgery.Methods The clinical data of 136 consecutive cases underwenttwo-step decapping technique in total thyroidectomy plus central compartment dissection from April 2013 to January 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.And the incidences of postoperative hypocalcemia were was compared with conventional consecutive decapping surgical methods containing 113 cases from January 2010 to March 2013.All operations were performed by the same treatment group.Results In the two-step decapping group,28 cases(28/136,20.6%) displayed postoperative temporary hypoparathyroidism and a higher incidence were was observed in 37 cases (37/113,32.7%) in the conventional method group,the difference was statistically significant(x2 =4.737,P =0.03).Whereas,2 cases(2/136,1.5%) suffered permanent hypoparathyroidism in the two-step decapping group and 7 cases (7/113,6.2%) of permanent hypoparathyroidism in the conventional method group,the difference was statistically significant (x2 =3.954,P =0.047).Conclusion Two-step decapping technique can more effectively protect the parathyroid gland function.It is worthy of popularization.
