ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To investigate the use ofultrasonically activated scalpel (UAS) in open thyroid surgery. METHODS From February 2004 to March 2005, thyroidectomy were performed in 77 cases by the same operation team. Forty seven cases received UAS thyroidectomy and 30 cases underwent conventional thyroidectomy. The operation time, estimated blood loss in operation, postoperative draining volume within the 24 hours, the length of hospitalization and postoperative complications between two groups were compared. RESULTS The average operation time of lobectomy and total/subtotal thyroidectomy in the UAS group were 61?4.34 and 85?3.02 minutes, and in conventional group were 82?3.37 and 121? 2.51 minutes. There was a significant difference in average operation time (P0.05). CONCLUSION The use of UAS in thyroid surgery was safe and can reduce the operation time.
