Analysis of Thyroidectomy Results and Identification of Postoperative Complications for Iraqi Patients

Abstract

Introduction: Thyroidectomy is one of among the most often performed surgical operations globally. Over 34,000 surgeries were conducted in Italy throughout the year, with a total of 100,000 performed per year, as the frequency of thyroid illnesses requiring complete thyroidectomy continues to rise. Objective: This paper aims to the analysis of Thyroidectomy Results and Identification of Postoperative Complications for Iraqi Patients. Patients and methods: Our paper was presented as a cross-sectional study where it was developed to the analysis of Thyroidectomy Results and Identification of Postoperative Complications for Iraqi Patients who have ages in range 30-75 years. This data was included 46 cases that cover all sexes, males, and females, in different hospitals in Iraq from 25th July 2021 to 19th June 2022. The data collected was analysed and designed by the SPSS program. Discussion: After analysing the data, they discovered that greater thyroid gland vascularization is more closely associated to hyperthyroidism and that the existence of thyroiditis impacts the occurrence of parenchymal fibrosis. Conclusions: Total thyroidectomy is an essentially safe treatment, even though it exposed fewer parathyroid glands as well as recurrent laryngeal nerves and more surgical risk compared to unilateral thyroid lobectomy. Neither infection nor airway issues appear to impact the risk of postoperative patients, with only hypocalcaemia (transient) having a significant effect on postoperative patients
