Abstract

Background: Benign nodular goiter is the most common endocrine disorder requiring surgical treatment, especially in places with a high prevalence of iodine deficiency worldwide. The present study was conducted to assess post- operative complications in patients undergoing benign nodular thyroid surgery.
Materials & Methods: 110 patients who underwent benign nodular thyroid surgery of both genders were enrolled and parameters such as operation techniques applied and complications were recorded.
Results: Out of 110 patients, males were 45 and females were 65. Type of surgery performed was lobectomy + istmectomy in 10, near total thyroidectomy in 54, total thyroidectomy in 30, bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy in 16 patients. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). Common complications were temporary hypoparathyroidism in 35, flap edema in 11, temporary recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in 5, permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in 6, seroma in 3 and hematoma in 2 cases. The difference was significant (P< 0.05).
Conclusion: Common complications were temporary hypoparathyroidism, flap, temporary recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, seroma and hematoma.
