Protective effect of nano carbon tracer on parathyroid function in the surgery of thyroid cancer / 中华内分泌外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of nano carbon tracer for protecting parathyroid function in the surgery of thyroid cancer.Methods A total of 178 patients with thyroid cancer admitted in our hospital from Jun.2014 to Mar.2016 were collected and divided into the control group and the observation group according to the random number table method,89 cases in each group.The control group received routine surgery,while the observation group received nanocarbon suspension during surgery.The levels of serum parathyroid hormone and serum calcium in the 2 groups were measured at 3 days after surgery,and the patients with low parathyroid hormone,normal parathyroid hormone and low calcium were counted.Results The rate of ormal serum calcium in the observation group was 91.01％(81/89),significantly higher than 67.42％(60/89) in the control group (P＜ 0.05).The rate of normal parathyroid hormone in observation group was 94.38％ (84/89),significantly higher than 64.04％ (57/89) in the control group (P＜0.05).Conclusion The nano carbon tracer is helpful for protection of parathyroid function in the surgery of thyroid cancer.
