dc.description.abstractNew surgical devices have been developed to improve haemostatic control and vascular closure in thyroid surgery. Here, we compare the efficacy and clinical outcomes of 3 surgical methods, Harmonic Focus, LigaSure Precise, and the traditional suture-ligation method, in patients undergoing total thyroidectomies. This retrospective study compared total thyroidectomies performed between July 2008 and August 2012. Thyroidectomies were performed in 243 patients using Harmonic Focus (n = 81), LigaSure Precise (n = 81), and traditional suture-ligation (n = 81). No significant differences were observed among groups in terms of patient demographics, thyroid weight, pathological diagnoses, pre- and postoperative calcium levels, postoperative complications, length of hospitalization, and clinical outcomes. The Harmonic Focus approach showed an similar to 15% shortening in operating time relative to the suture-ligation group; no statistically significant differences were detected between the LigaSure and traditional suture-ligation groups. All 3 methods were found to be both safe and effective. Operating time was significantly shorter in the Harmonic Focus group; no differences in terms of postoperative complications were observed among groups.en_US
