Postoperative rehabilitation of patients with colloidal nodular goiter

Abstract

The new method for the rehabilitation of patients operated on thyroid gland because of the colloidal nodular goiter has been suggested. The method includes the prescription of non-steroid anti-inflammatory nimesulide drug and microwaves during the earlier postoperative period in combination with the hormonal status correction. This rehabilitation method results in sooner wound reparation, shorter period of physical disability, and better life quality of patients comparing to traditional postoperative management.
