Objective To explore the change of constitution in thyroid diseases of West China Hospital between 2000 and 2012， in order to provide clinical evidence. Methods Clinical data， including gender， age， and pathological diagnosis of patients with thyroid disease who underwent primary thyroid surgery in our hospital from 2000 to 2012 were collected retrospectively and analyzed statistically. Results A total of 9 642 patients were enrolled， including 1 893 male patients and 7 749 female patients. The ratio of male to female patients was 1 to 4.09. In male patients， the proportion of thyroid carcinoma were significantly higher than those of female group （P=0.02）；in male patients younger than 45 group， the proportion of thyroid carcinoma were significantly higher than those of female group （P＜0.01）. There was no statistical difference on the proportion between male and female patients older than 45 group （P=0.90）. Proportion of thyroid carcinoma， especially proportion of papillary thyroid carcinoma （PTC） increased in general. Proportion of Hashimoto thyroiditis （HT） increased in general too. HT with thyroid carcinoma accounted for an increasing proportion of all patients with HT. Proportion of nodular goiter （NG） increased at first and then declined. Proportion of thyroid adenoma （TA） decreased on the whole. Conclusions Proportion of thyroid carcinoma， especially proportion of PTC increase in recent years on the whole in patients underwent surgery. All these changes need to be given sufficient attention.
ObjectiveTo investigate the variation regularity about volume of drainage after initial thyroidectomy, and to find out the time points of safety extubation and the time points of risk extubation. MethodsBetween September 2013 and April 2014, the clinical date of 71 cases of thyroid tumor who underwent thyroidectomy were prospectively analyzed and completely random designed. The patients were indwelling drain after thyroidectomy, the volume of drainage liquid were registered at each point of time in period of 48 hours after operation and analyzed its the variation regularity. ResultsThe volume of drainage fluid in 48 h after operation was gradually decreased in 71 patients. The reduce speed of volume of drainage fluid in the 12 h after operation was faster, then was significantly slower, and gradually stabilized. The amount of the drainage fluid reached the peak in 2 h after operation in 22 cases, and then gradually decreased and reached the stabilization. ConclusionsThe 2 hours after thyroidectomy is the risk drainage removing time when is relatively safe. The 12 hours after thyroidectomy is the safety drainage removing time, after that there is no longer any meaning to keep drainage tube.
ObjectiveTo summarize and analyze the possible association between thyroid diseases and alopecia areata. MethodThe literatures on the relationship between thyroid disease and alopecia areata in recent years were searched and reviewed. ResultsAmong individuals with alopecia areata, the risk of thyroid disease was heightened. They were more susceptible to autoimmune thyroid conditions, often accompanied by thyroid function abnormalities. Moreover, alopecia areata patients face an increased risk of thyroid cancer. However, in patients with thyroid disease, the change of the incidence of alopecia areata was not completely clear. The risk of alopecia areata was increased in patients with autoimmune thyroid disease, and abnormal thyroid function may be one of the potential reasons for the persistence of alopecia areata. ConclusionsAutoimmune thyroid disease and alopecia areata may have a common disease basis. Patients with alopecia areata are at greater risk of autoimmune thyroid disease and thyroid dysfunction. The increased risk of alopecia areata in patients with autoimmune thyroid disease may be related to abnormal thyroid function.
【摘要】目的探讨经乳房途径行腔镜甲状腺切除术的可行性。方法2003年12月至2004年6月期间我科行腔镜甲状腺切除术27例。于两侧乳晕及乳头间切口放置3个trocar，分离胸前皮下和颈阔肌深面，注入CO2建立手术操作空间，CO2压力为5~6 mm Hg，超声刀切割、分离甲状腺组织和甲状腺血管。结果13例行甲状腺肿块切除术，11例行一侧腺叶次全切除术，3例行双侧甲状腺次全切除术。手术时间70~140 min，平均（97±34.2） min； 术中出血20~40 ml，平均（34±9.7） ml； 术后住院时间3~5 d，平均（3.6±0.8） d。27例手术均获成功，无一例中转手术及并发症发生。结论经乳房途径的腔镜甲状腺切除术安全、可靠，颈部无疤痕，美容效果好。
Objective To reveal the relationship between the iodine nutrition and the change of spectrum of thyroiddiseases by analyzing the change of spectrum of thyroid diseases in different iodine environments before and after the implementation of universal salt iodization （USI）. Methods To compare the urinary iodine concentration between the normal people （1 000 cases） and the patients with thyroid diseases （5 998 cases） by surgical operations who were from 4 cities of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region， covering the iodine deficient areas and the iodine rich areas. Results After the USI was put into practice， the proportions of nodular goiter decreased， but the proportions of toxic nodular goiter， thyroid papillary carcinoma， and Hashimoto thyroiditis were higher than those before USI （P＜0.05）. The urinaryiodine concentrations of nodular goiter， Graves disease， toxic nodular goiter， thyroid papillary carcinoma， and Hashimotothyroiditis were higher than those before the measure was taken （P＜0.05）. The urinary iodine concentration of patients with thyroid was higher than that of normal people （P＜0.05）， and the urinary iodine concentration of patients with thyroidand normal people was higher than those before the USI （P＜0.05）. Conclusions The change of spectrum of thyroid diseases in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region is obvious within 10 years after USI had been taken. The excessive intake of iodine may be one of the dangerous factors leading to toxic nodular goiter， thyroid papillary carcinoma， and Hashimoto thyroiditis.
ObjectiveTo summarize the advancement of transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA).MethodThe relevant literatures about comparative study btween TEOTVA and other thyroidectomy were retrospectively analyzed and summarized.ResultsCompared with the conventional open thyroidectomy or other endoscopic thyroidectomy, even though TOETVA requires a longer operative time, it provides similar surgical outcomes and no scar on the body.ConclusionTOETVA is a safe and effective procedure with excellent cosmetic results for patients with thyroid disease.
Objective To investigate the financial burden of in-patients with thyroid diseases in the West China Hospital in Chengdu, Sichuan province, from January 2011 to December 2012, so as to provide baseline data for further research. Methods The data of in-patients (who had been discharged from the department of endocrinology and metabolism or discharged after being transferred to other departments for diagnosis and treatment in the West China Hospital in 2011) were collected from the Hospital Information System (HIS) of the West China Hospital, including basic information, initial diagnosis when the patients were discharged, hospital costs, the information about whether the patients had been registered the insurance in hospital, etc. We classified diseases according to ICD-10 based on the initial diagnosis when the patients were discharged on the first page of case reports. The data were input using Excel 2010 software, and statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 13.0 software. Results The results showed that: a) in 2011, 205 person-times were hospitalized in the department of endocrinology and metabolism, of which, 84 were male and 121 were female, with mean age of 45.3±15.7 years; b) for patients with thyroid diseases, median hospital stay was 10 days, the average cost of hospital stay for each patient was RMB 2 881.43 yuan, most of which was for lab tests and examination; c) the person-times of patients with hyperthyroidism was 162, accounting for 79.5% of the total of thyroid diseases, median hospital stay was 10 days, and the average cost of hospital stay was RMB 2 958.36 yuan; and d) there was no association between the number of hyperthyroidism complications and hospital stay and costs. Conclusion Thyroid diseases are a commonly-seen disease in the department of endocrinology and metabolism, of which, hyperthyroidism accounts for the most. There is no association between the number of hyperthyroidism complications and hospital stay/costs.
