Completion thyroidectomy (CT) is employed after lobectomy when histopathological results mandates total removal of the gland as in case of well differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). It is also employed as a second stage thyroid surgery when unfavorable events occur as in recurrent laryngeal nerve injury or when the surgeon finds out the case is beyond his/her expertise in an attempt to protect the contralateral side and allowing time for recovery or for an expert surgeon to help.
当甲状腺叶切除术后组织病理学结果表明需要全切甲状腺时,如在分化型甲状腺癌(DTC)的情况下,需进行甲状腺全切除术(CT)。当出现不良事件,如喉返神经损伤,或外科医生发现病例超出其专业能力范围时,为保护对侧并留出恢复时间或让专家外科医生提供帮助,也会将其作为二期甲状腺手术。
