Hypocalcemia, Ligature; Hemorrhage, Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injuries
Conditions
Brief summary
To compare intraoperative and postoperative complication rates in thyroidectomy between ligasure and traditional vascular ligation and clipping .
Detailed description
Due to the high vascularity of the thyroid gland and the relatively tiny operative field, rigorous hemostasis is an essential requirement for successful thyroid surgery. Blood vessel ligation and/or ligation are the primary means of attaining hemostasis in thyroidectomy. New technologies have been developed, including a vessel sealing device (ligasure) that seals vessels by fusing the inner layers of the vessel wall with minimal amounts of thermal dispersion burning and tissue friction, thereby minimizing the occurrence of unintentional burns. yet. It is unclear whether the heat conveyed by a ligature can harm the recurrent laryngeal nerve due to its proximity to the berry ligament. thromosis of the inferior parathyroidal gland's supplying artery during dissection may result from alternative prospective delineation of the inferior thyroidal artery using ligasure for dissection. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of ligasure with standard vascular ligation in open thyroid surgery.
Interventions
