Which Hemostatic Surgical Devices Should Be Used for Thyroid Surgery, or Should We Just Continue to Clamp and Tie? [PDF]
Thyroid, 2013 Hemostasis is extremely important in thyroid surgery. In order to avoid postoperative complications such as hematomas, which can lead to airway obstruction and/or damage to the recurrent laryngeal nerve and the parathyroid glands, meticulous dissection with minimal blood loss is necessary.
