“…Total thyroidectomy has been considered to be a treatment of choice for thyroid malignancies. It has recently gained popularity as gold standard for benign thyroid disorders requiring surgical treatment [1]. According to American Thyroid Association approximately 150,000 patients undergo thyroidectomy every year in the United States for benign or malignant disease [2].…”

“…8 Harmonic scalpel ("focus" and reformed variety "focus+") is one of the fundamental instruments for surgical concurrent dissection and tissue coagulation which grant dissection and hemostasis by focused use of ultrasonic waves and permits minimally invasive surgical techniques with insignificant horizontal thermal distribution and, consequently, nominal surrounding tissue destruction. 9 The harmonic scalpel utilizes mechanical ultrasonic energy to concurrently dissect and provide hemostasis to blood vessels by denaturing and coagulating collagen fibers. 10 Restricted amount of researches have assessed in one analysis, the efficiency of the harmonic scalpel, and conventional technique.…”
