Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to analyze the difference between non-ligation and traditional ligation techniques for papillary thyroid micro-carcinoma (PTMC) patients.
Methods: Patients undergoing thyroidectomy in the Department of General Surgery, Ruijin Hospital, affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Lu Wan Branch, were retrospectively enrolled. The gender, age, operation method, operation duration, tumor size, size of thyroidectomy specimen, postoperative bleeding, drainage volume on the first postoperative day, preoperative and postoperative levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH), and blood calcium were collected.
Results: Compared with the traditional ligation technique, the non-ligation technique significantly shortened the operation time (69.36 ± 1.38 vs. 82.72 ± 2.12, P < .0001) and reached less variation of the serum calcium (2.32 ± 0.01 vs 2.28 ± 0.01, P < .001) and PTH (26.58 ± 0.08 vs 22.01 ± 1.04, P < .05) on the first postoperative day, and the above biochemical indicators returned to normal 3 weeks after surgery. The PTH in the No-ligation technique group was 7.20± 1.99, which was significantly lower than that in the Traditional ligation group (20.78± 3.78) (P < .01).
Conclusion: No-ligation technique can significantly reduce the operation time in thyroidectomy but may temporarily affect the levels of parathyroid hormone and blood calcium, and the above changes returned to normal 3 weeks after surgery. These results highlighted that No-ligation technique can benefit patients and will be a favorable treatment method.
期刊介绍：
Launched in 1995, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine has a mission to promote the art and science of integrative medicine and a responsibility to improve public health. We strive to maintain the highest standards of ethical medical journalism independent of special interests that is timely, accurate, and a pleasure to read. We publish original, peer-reviewed scientific articles that provide health care providers with continuing education to promote health, prevent illness, and treat disease. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine was the first journal in this field to be indexed in the National Library of Medicine. In 2006, 2007, and 2008, ATHM had the highest impact factor ranking of any independently published peer-reviewed CAM journal in the United States—meaning that its research articles were cited more frequently than any other journal’s in the field.
Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine does not endorse any particular system or method but promotes the evaluation and appropriate use of all effective therapeutic approaches. Each issue contains a variety of disciplined inquiry methods, from case reports to original scientific research to systematic reviews. The editors encourage the integration of evidence-based emerging therapies with conventional medical practices by licensed health care providers in a way that promotes a comprehensive approach to health care that is focused on wellness, prevention, and healing. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine hopes to inform all licensed health care practitioners about developments in fields other than their own and to foster an ongoing debate about the scientific, clinical, historical, legal, political, and cultural issues that affect all of health care.
