  • harmonic scalpel in multinodular goiter surgery impact on surgery and cost analysis
    Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques, 2009
    Co-Authors: Frederic Sebag, Cecile Fortanier, Guiseppe Ippolito, Aude Lagier, Pascal Auquier, Jean-françois Henry
    Abstract:

    Abstract Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential advantages and the general operative cost of the Harmonic Scalpel (HS) in surgery for multinodular goiter (MNG). Methods: Patients undergoing total thyroidectomy (TT) for MNG were prospectively allocated in a conventional tie-and-clip (TC) group (n = 50) and an HS group (n = 50). All pre- and Postoperative data were recorded. The economic evaluation was based on a microcost measurement and aimed to consider all the resources consumed for each patient during the surgical procedure. To compare the results, we used the nonparametric unpaired two-tailed Mann-Whitney test. Results: There were 81 women and 19 men (mean age, 55 ± 15 years). Mean preoperative TSH level was 1.2 (SD, 1.1) (TC) and 1.3 (SD, 2) (HS) (P = NS). Mean body mass index was 24.72 (SD, 8) (TC) and 25.6 (SD, 8) (HS) (P = NS). Four patients experienced a transient hypocalcemia (2 in each group). One patient had a Postoperative Hematoma requiring surgical evacuation (HS)...

  • Thyroid surgery: Postoperative Hematoma—prevention and treatment
    Langenbeck's Archives of Surgery, 2006
    Co-Authors: Jane Harding, Frederic Sebag, Mauricio Sierra, F. Fausto Palazzo, Jean-françois Henry
    Abstract:

    Background and aims Postoperative haematoma formation is a fortunately rare but potentially life-threatening complication of thyroid surgery. This paper aims to identify potential aetiological factors, describe surgical techniques and newer haemostatic agents that may be used to minimise the risk of haematoma formation and propose surgical strategies to deal with haematoma formation. Materials and methods An extensive literature search as well as own considerable experience in a tertiary referral centre endocrine surgical unit was drawn upon to review this topic. Conclusions Postoperative haematoma may have a multifactorial aetiology. Numerous manoeuvres and surgical haemostatic agents may be employed to minimise the risk of haematoma formation but are no substitute for meticulous haemostasis. In the event of haematoma formation, early surgical re-intervention is strongly advocated with due care given to at risk structures.

  • The effect of varicocele repair on testicular volume in children and adolescents with varicocele.
    Journal of Urology, 2002
    Co-Authors: Selahittin Çayan, Erdem Akbay, Murat Bozlu, Erdal Doruk, Erim Erdem, Deniz Acar, Ercüment Ulusoy
    Abstract:

    Purpose: We investigated the effect of varicocele repair on testicular volume according to age in children and adolescents and review the long-term results of varicocele surgery.Materials and Methods: The study included 39 boys 11 to 19 years old with clinical palpable varicocele who underwent varicocele surgery with at least 1 year of Postoperative followup. Preoperative and Postoperative testicular volumes were monitored and measured with an ellipsoid Prader orchidometer. Physical examination findings (testicular volumes and testicular consistency) in all boys, and serum hormone values and semen parameters in 16 adolescents were recorded and compared before and after surgery.Results: Left unilateral varicocelectomy was done in 29 boys (74%) and bilateral varicocelectomy in 10 (26%). While no Postoperative Hematoma, infection or testicular atrophy was observed, 1 boy (2.5%) had varicocele recurrence and 2 boys (5.1%) had minimal hydroceles that required no intervention. Significant increases were observe...
