- W2097374218 abstract "Thyroid diseases and surgery for thyroid neoplasms are both very common. Several complications of thyroidectomy are well known. Some of these are quite disturbing, such as recurrent laryngeal nerve injury and permanent hypoparathyroidism. However, postoperative hematoma often in the recovery room may be fatal. Close observation and early intervention are of utmost necessity in the post-thyroidectomy period. In a series of 600 thyroidectomies performed over a period of 11 years, eight patients developed postoperative hematoma. Seven of them underwent re-exploration, while one patient was treated conservatively. Two patients had second re-exploration for hematoma reaccumulation. All patients recovered very well after re-exploration except one elderly patient who required ventilatory support due to poor pulmonary reserve; after a week of ventilatory support and a tracheostomy, she too recovered well. One patient had the hematoma re-explored as late as 24 hours after the operation, while the remainder were re-explored within 4-6 hours after the initial procedure. Because of the extent of edema of the larynx and pharyngeal wall, it is very important that a senior, experienced person perform intubation in these patients. It is also very important to recognize that when the patients lie down flat, they may develop acute airway distress; hence, one must be prepared to intubate them emergently. We recommend close recovery room observation after thyroidectomy and early exploration and evacuation of hematoma in all patients who develop postoperative hematoma. A conservative approach may be considered in selected patients with minimal hematoma and no progression. However, it generally takes a long time for the hematoma to resorb. A better understanding of the complications of thyroidectomy will minimize morbidity and make thyroidectomy a safer procedure and a surgical triumph." @default.
