Abstract:
PURPOSES:There is an increasing trend towards performing more radical resections instead of a subtotal resection for benign thyroid disease. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of this change in practice on the surgical treatment of bilateral thyroid diseases in this unit. METHODS:The data on 367 patients that underwent a bilateral thyroidectomy were categorized by dividing the operation types into 4 groups: (1) total thyroidectomy (TT), (2) near-total thyroidectomy, (3) Dunhill procedure, and (4) bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy. RESULTS:A statistically significant change in the choice of thyroidectomy occured during the study period (p < 0.001). TT has replaced subtotal thyroidectomy (STT; bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy and Dunhill procedure) as the preferred routine surgical procedure for bilateral benign thyroid diseases in this clinic. The permanent complication rates were similar for all surgical procedures. The rate of secondary thyroidectomy for both recurrence of multinodular goiter and incidental thyroid carcinoma were significantly higher in the STT groups, than the total in the TT and near-total thyroidectomy patients. CONCLUSIONS:Total or near total thyroidectomy procedures are now being increasingly employed to treat bilateral benign thyroid disease, and are as safe as the sub-total thyroidectomy procedures, which are more conservative and associated with significantly higher recurrence rates.
