Total versus subtotal thyroidectomy for multinodular non-toxic goitre in adults

Long-Term Outcome of Lobectomy for Thyroid Cancer

“…However, the use of thyroglobulin as a guide for cancer recurrence after lobectomy has been previously reported [38,39] and a more recent study has shown that an increase in unstimulated thyroglobulin could help identify cancer recurrence [40]. Lobectomy may be considered as an interesting alternative for selected patients, as fewer postoperative complications are generally expected after this procedure than in a thyroidectomy [10,16], although a previous review found a similar complication rate for both surgical procedures [41]. However, the realization of a lobectomy requires a regular and prolonged follow-up which can be complicated by non-suspicious nodular recurrences, as found herein in approximately one-fifth of patients.…”

Less than total thyroidectomy for goiter: when and how?

“…The incidence of recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy was found to be higher in the total thyroidectomy group. This was also the case for permanent hypoparathyroidism (19). Another study reported by Hauch et al suggested that total thyroidectomy has higher associated risks of complications compared to hemithyroidectomy (20.4% vs. 10.8%, respectively).…”

Характеристика Окремих Імунологічних Показників У Пацієнтів Із Післяопераційним Рецидивом Хвороби Грейвса

“…

ВступОднією з актуальних проблем хірургічного лі-кування хвороби Грейвса (ХГ) є розвиток рециди-вів, число яких збільшується з кількістю виконаних операцій на щитоподібній залозі (ЩЗ) [1][2][3]. Відо-мо, що до розвитку рецидивів та, як наслідок, до повторних операційних втручань призводять стра-тегічно неадекватні операції.
