Comparison of the effect between high negative pressure drainage system and the traditional suction drainage system applied in thyroid surgery / 中国基层医药

Objective To compare the effect of high negative pressure drainage system and the traditional suction drainage system applied in thyroid surgery.Methods Eligible patients were selected randomly and divided into high negative pressure drainage group(30 cases) and traditional suction drainage group(30 cases).The draining rate within 24 hours after operation,delayed extubation rate,postoperative bleeding,rates of recurrent laryngeal nerve Injury,postoperative infection rate,degree of extubation pain and the incidence of severe pain of both groups were observed and difference of incidence of incision adhesions 1 month after operation were observed.Results The average drainage within 24 hours after operation in experimental group was (19.00 ± 6.79) ml,while (28.53 ± 14.74) ml in control group (P ＜ 0.05).Delayed extubation rate in experimental group was 3.33 ％,while 26.67％ in control group (x2 =4.71,P ＜ 0.05).Incidence of hematoma and bleeding after operation in experimental group was 0％,while 10％ in control group(x2 =1.40,P ＞ 0.05).No recurrent laryngeal nerve injury was found in either group,Incidence was 0％.The incidence of infection in experimental group was 0％,while 10％ in control group (x2 =1.40,P ＞0.05).The incidence of severe pain when extubation in experimental group was 0％,while 100％ in control group (x2 =60.00,P ＜ 0.05).Incidence of incision adhesions in experimental group was 0.33 ％,while 30％ in control group (x2 =6.14,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Draining rate,delayed extubation rate and incidence of incision adhesions could be reduced with high negative pressure drainage system applied in thyroid surgery,which is worthy of clinical.

The value of region Ⅵ lymph nodes in the surgical treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma / 肿瘤研究与临床

Objective To evaluate the value of region Ⅵ lymph nodes in surgical treatment of cN0 papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC). Methods 98 cases of PTC with cN0 which received functional lymph nodes dissection were collected. We analyzed the results of pathologic examination by region Ⅵ lymph nodes distinguished from lateral neck lymph nodes(Ⅱ～Ⅴ) retrospectively. Results In 98 cases, the rate of region Ⅵ lymph nodes metastasis was 20.4 %(20 cases); the rate of region Ⅱ～Ⅴ lymph nodes metastasis was 13 cases(13.3 %). In cases with region Ⅵ lymph nodes metastasis, the rate of Ⅱ～Ⅴ lymph nodes metastasis was 45.0 %(9/20). Meanwhile in cases without region Ⅵ lymph nodes metastasis, the rate of Ⅱ～Ⅴ lymph nodes metastasis was 5.1 % (4/78, P
