ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the effect of hypertonic glucose injection on patients with chylous leakage after neck dissection.METHODS:
The clinical data of 9 patients with postoperative chylous fistula after the lymph node dissection of thyroid cancer from February 2017 to December 2018 in the Department of Thyroid Surgery,the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were collected and analyzed.RESULTS:
As for 9 patients with intractable chylous fistula,8 patients were finally cured and had the drainage tube removed.Three patients decreased significantly by over 50% on next day after hypertonic glucose injection.Four patients decreased significantly by over 50% on next two daysafter hypertonic glucose injection.One patient had to have another one operation to cure chylous fistula.CONCLUSION:
In patients with chylous fistula after thyroid cancer surgery,local injection of hypertonic glucose seems to be more effective in shortening time of drainage tube remining,which would promote wound healing and release pains.
