Abstract

Objective: To compare the outcomes of thyroid surgery with and without drainage at Viet Nam National Cancer Hospital from 2019 to 2021. Materials and method: A cross-sectional descriptive study on patients undergoing thyroid surgery with and without drainage at Viet Nam National Cancer Hospital from 1/2019 to 8/2021. Evaluation includes pain level after surgery, hospital length stays, and monitoring postoperative complications. Results: 204 patients who underwent thyroid surgery were divided into two groups (102 patients with drainage and 102 patients without drainage) with similar clinical characteristics and surgical methods. There was no significant difference in postoperative complications (fluid collection, hematoma, bleeding, hypoparathyroidism, hoarseness, pain level after surgery, hospital stay) between the two groups. The mean length of hospital stays was statistically significantly shorter in the group without drainage (4.9±0.86 days vs 5.64±1.03 days, p<0.001). Not using drainage also significantly improved the level of satisfaction after surgery (p=0.008). Conclusions: Thyroid surgery without drainage has reduced hospital stay and increased patient satisfaction while ensuring monitoring outcomes and postoperative complications.
