【Abstract】ObjectiveTo study the applicatble value of absorbable biomedical membrane (ABMM) in thyroid operation.
MethodsABMM (size 0.02 cm) was placed between trachea and the skin flap trachea and the anterior muscles of the neck, and between anterior muscles of neck and the skin flap after radical cure for thyroid cancer of thyroidectomy including one or two lobes.
ResultsConglutination under the incision was significantly lighter in experiment group (153 cases ) than control group (139 cases) ( P＜0.05）, but the difference of complication between two groups was insignificant after postoperative followup for 6 weeks.
ConclusionABMM can effectively prevent conglutination under the incision without increasing of postoperative complications.
