Popis: | The aim of this study was to compare the surgical outcomes of endoscopic thyroidectomy (ET) and conventional open thyroidectomy (COT) for benign thyroid nodules.Between March 2001 and November 2014, 224 patients underwent ET via the breast approach and 218 patients underwent COT. Clinicopathological characteristics and surgical outcomes were retrospectively compared.The operation time was significantly longer in the ET group than in the COT group (P = 0.000). However, the ET group had less intraoperative blood loss (P = 0.000), less amount of drainage (P = 0.000), and shorter duration of drainage (P = 0.000). The cosmetic satisfaction was more excellent in the ET group than in the COT group (P = 0.000).ET via the breast approach is a safe and effective procedure with excellent cosmetic results for patients with benign thyroid nodules. |
