Incidences of Hypothyroidism Associated With Surgical Procedures for Thyroid Disorders: A Nationwide Population-Based Study

Abstract: Background and Aim: Limited information available about different types of thyroid surgeries with risk for postoperative hypothyroidism. This study aimed to investigate the risk of developing early and late-onset postoperative hypothyroidism in patients with thyroid disorders.Methods: We used a large cohort data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Data Base (NHIRDB) and identified 9,693 (9, 348) patients from January 1998 to December 2010, admitted for thyroid disorder surgeries. We used the sur… Show more

“…26 Besides, patients with re-operative and malignant diseases had better outcomes when the surgery was conducted by an experienced physician. 29 However, other studies found that laryngeal nerve injury incidence was the same in both new and experienced surgeons. In addition, it was found that surgeons trained specifically for thyroidectomy had less incidence of laryngeal nerve injury compared to general surgeons who received nonspecific training.…”

“…Few studies discussed the influence of surgeon experience and daily workload on the surgical outcome during thyroidectomy surgery. [26][27][28][29] It was found that a workload of 100 thyroid cases per year was associated with better outcomes. 26 Besides, patients with re-operative and malignant diseases had better outcomes when the surgery was conducted by an experienced physician.…”

“…Complications after thyroidectomy include bleeding, hoarseness of throat, dysphagia, paresis, laryngeal nerve palsy and hypoparathyroidism, and less commonly, tracheal instability, lymphorrhoea, and occasionally thyroid storm [1,2]. Postoperative hypoparathyroidism may constitute one of the complications associated with thyroidectomy due to cancer and benign goitre.…”

“…7,8 Surgeon experience, quality of training, and dissection skills remain important determinants of the operative outcomes. 9 Additionally, anatomical variations, functional status of the thyroid, and malignant pathology also have a certain role to play in the outcomes of this surgery. [10][11][12][13] There are numerous techniques currently being practiced to dissect in this area and to avoid injury to the RLNs and to the parathyroid glands.…”
