THYROIDECTOMY AND THE PARATHYROIDS

Archives of Surgery, 1948
THE RECOGNITION of the parathyroid glands is a challenge to the surgeon. Although the dire consequences of injury to the glands or of removal of the glands are generally appreciated, it is safe to say that thyroidectomies are done without the operator's being able definitely to recognize this tissue.

Thyroidectomy of the Goat

Acta Physiologica Scandinavica, 1965
AbstractEkman, L. Thyroidectomy of the goat. Acta physiol. scand. 1965. 65. 331–336. —A procedure to obtain complete thyroidectomy in the adult goat is described. In 4 of 6 goats ectopic thyroid tissue was detected after surgical thyroidectomy. The goats were given treatment doses of 20 to 25 mCi I131 once a month until no ectopic thyroid tissue could ...

Thyroidectomy with LigaSure

Surgery Today, 2011
A new method for ensuring hemostasis during thyroid surgery has recently been introduced. This technique, electrothermal (LigaSure) and ultrasound blood vessel sealing, is still experimental. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the applications and efficacy of LigaSure by analyzing the duration of the surgery and the rate of complications of ...

Thyroidectomy for Hyperthyroidism

Archives of Surgery, 1970
From 1950 to 1965, 285 thyroidectomies were performed for hyperthyroidism with no deaths and few complications unless the patient had a repeat thyroidectomy. Total thyroidectomy and total lobectomy did not affect the incidence of complications. Seven percent of patients developed recurrent hyperthyroidism and 25% developed hypothyroidism.

Outpatient thyroidectomy

The American Journal of Surgery, 1997
In current clinical practice, the concept of outpatient surgery could apply to thyroidectomy. As the thyroid is anatomically accessible, its removal is not physiologically disabling; it makes surgery safer and precludes hospitalization. To evaluate the feasibility and solidity of outpatient thyroidectomy (OPT), the authors conducted a 12 1/2-year study

Thyroidectomy Hemostasis

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2016
Total thyroidectomy has significantly changed over the years from a morbid procedure to one that is performed routinely on an outpatient basis. This article reviews the history of thyroid surgery with regard to hemostasis, discusses surgical vascular anatomy, and describes the methods of hemostasis.
