INTRODUCTION: Total thyroidectomy (TTx) has been reported to be more challenging in patients with Graves' disease, especially in those who are hyperthyroid at the time of surgery. Our aim was to compare outcomes in patients undergoing TTx for Graves' disease compared to other thyroid diseases at a large academic institution with high-volume fellowship-trained endocrine surgeons.
METHODS: In our retrospective analysis from December 2015 to May 2023, patients undergoing TTx for Graves' disease were compared to those undergoing TTx for all other indications excluding advanced malignancy (poorly differentiated thyroid cancer and concomitant neck dissections). Patient demographics, biochemical values, and postoperative outcomes were compared. A subgroup analysis was performed comparing hyperthyroid to euthyroid patients at the time of surgery.
RESULTS: There were 589 patients who underwent TTx, of which 227 (38.5%) had Graves' disease compared to 362 (61.5%) without. Intraoperatively in Graves' patients, nerve monitoring was used more frequently (65.6% versus 57.1%; P = 0.04) and there was a higher rate of parathyroid autotransplantation (32.0% versus 14.4%; P < 0.01). Postoperatively, transient voice hoarseness occurred less frequently (4.8% versus 13.6%; P < 0.01) and there was no difference in temporary hypocalcemia rates or hematoma rates. In our subgroup analysis, 83 (36%) of Graves' patients were hyperthyroid (thyroid-stimulating hormone < 0.45 and free T4 > 1.64) at the time of surgery and there were no differences in postoperative complications compared to those who were euthyroid.
CONCLUSIONS: At a high-volume endocrine surgery center, TTx for Graves' disease can be performed safely without significant differences in postoperative outcomes. Hyperthyroid patients demonstrated no differences in postoperative outcomes.
