Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1.To compare the Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROM) in surgeries, TORT vs BABA- RT for benign and indeterminate thyroid swellings Timepoint: After surgery—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.To study for safety to compare the outcomes of TORT & BABART in terms of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, parathyroid injury, blood loss, pain, respiratory distress, subcutaneous ecchymosis & paresthesia over neck, chin & chest. 2.To compare the TORT with BABA RT in terms of operating time 3.To compare the TORT with BABA RT in terms of the ease of doing the procedure by the surgeon on a Likert scale of 1 to 5. 4.To compare the TORT with BABA RT in terms of inflammatory response of body to both procedures. Timepoint: baseline 10 days 3 months postsurgery—
