Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the effects of preoperative aspirin use on postoperative complications, especially risk of bleeding, in patients undergoing bilateral total thyroidectomy. Methods: A total of 201 patients who underwent bilateral total thyroidectomy between 15 August 2016 and 1 February 2019 were included in the study. The patients were divided into two groups: preoperative aspirin group (n=42, 20%) and aspirinnaïve group (n=168, 80%). Parameters, including demographic characteristics, complications and length of hospital stay were compared between the groups. Results: Eight (4.4%) patients in aspirin-naïve group and three (7.1%) in preoperative aspirin group had minor hematoma and ecchymosis not requiring any intervention. There was only one patient in aspirin-naïve group (0.5%) who required surgical intervention due to bleeding in the postoperative period, whereas there were not any in the other study group. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that aspirin had no significant effect on the development of postoperative complications in patients undergoing bilateral total thyroidectomy. However, large-scale prospective and randomized series are warranted for more accurate and precise results.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, bilateral total tiroidektomi ameliyatı yapılan hastalarda, aspirin kullanımının postoperatif dönemde özellikle kanama riski olmak üzere postoperatif komplikasyonlara olan etkisini değerlendirmektir. Yöntemler: Çalışmaya 15 Ağustos 2016 ve 1 Şubat 2019 tarihleri arasında merkezimizde bilateral total tiredoktomi ameliyatı olan 210 hasta dahil edilmiştir. Hastalar preoperatif dönemde aspirin kullanımlarına göre ikiye ayrılmıştır. Gruplar arasında, hastaların demografik bilgileri, komplikasyonlar ve hastanede yatış süresi gibi parametreler karşılaştırılmıştır. Bulgular: Toplam 210 hastanın, ameliyat öncesi aspirin kullanmayan 168’i (%80) grup 1 ve ameliyat öncesi aspirin kullanan 42 (%20) hasta grup 2 olarak sınıflandırılmıştır. Kanama kontrolüne yönelik, postoperatif dönemde tekrar ameliyat gerektirmeyen minimal hematom ve ekimoz gelişimi grup 1’de sekiz (%4,4) iken, grup 2’de üç hasta (%7,1) olarak bulunmuştur. Kanama kontrolü için tekrar ameliyat gereken hasta oranı ise grup 1’de bir (%0,5) hasta olarak ölçülürken, grup 2’de hiç görülmemiştir. Sonuç: Aspirin tedavisinin total tiroidektomi ameliyatında hematom gelişmesinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir etki yaratmadığı görülmüştür. Ancak, çalışmanın retrospektif olması ve hasta sayısının az olması nedeniyle, sonuçların prospektif randomize ve daha geniş sayıdaki hasta grupları ile değerlendirilmesi uygun olacaktır.
