Abstrakt: Background: Hypothyroidism is common postlaryngectomy and is associated with laryngectomy-specific complications. The objective of this study is to determine the incidence and predictors of hypothyroidism postlaryngectomy and its associated complications.
Methods: Systematic review, data extraction, and meta-analyses were performed following the PRISMA protocol. Six databases were searched for studies reporting on postlaryngectomy thyroid status with incidence, risk factors, management, or complications.
Results: Fifty-one studies with 6333 patients were included. The pooled incidence of postlaryngectomy hypothyroidism is 49% (CI 42%-57%). Subgroup analysis showed postlaryngectomy hypothyroidism rates significantly correlated with hemithyroidectomy and radiotherapy. Patients who underwent laryngectomy, hemithyroidectomy, and radiotherapy had a 65% (CI 59%-71%) rate of hypothyroidism; laryngectomy and hemithyroidectomy 46% (CI 33%-60%); laryngectomy and radiotherapy 26% (CI 19%-35%); and laryngectomy alone 11% (CI 4%-27%) (p < 0.001).
Conclusions: Laryngectomized patients with partial thyroidectomy or radiation therapy are at significant risk of postoperative hypothyroidism. Evidence-based protocols for early detection and (prophylactic) treatment should be established.
