Risk factors for postoperative haemorrhage after total thyroidectomy: clinical results based on 2,678 patients
Abstract The aim of this study was to analyse postoperative haemorrhage (POH) after a total thyroidectomy and explore the possible risk factors. Records of patients receiving a total thyroidectomy were reviewed and analysed for risk factors of POH. From the 2,678 patients in this study, a total of 3...
