BACKGROUND: Voice change after thyroidectomy is an important issue in thyroid surgery. However, little is known about long-term voice outcomes after thyroidectomy. This study investigates the long-term voice outcomes of thyroidectomy up to two years after surgery. Also, we analyzed the pattern of recovery through acoustic tests over time.
METHODS: We reviewed data from 168 patients who underwent thyroidectomy between January 2020 and August 2020 at a single institution. The Thyroidectomy-related Voice and Symptom Questionnaire (TVSQ) score and acoustic voice analysis results were examined preoperatively and postoperative one, three, and six months, and one and two years after surgery. We divided patients into two groups based on the TVSQ score (≥15 or <15) at two years postoperatively. We investigated the difference of acoustic characteristics between the two groups and analyzed correlations between acoustic parameters and various clinical and surgical factors.
RESULTS: Voice parameters tended to recover, but some parameters and TVSQ scores exhibited deterioration two years after surgery. In the subgroups, among the many clinicopathologic factors examined, voice abuse history including professional voice users (p = 0.014), greater extent of thyroidectomy and neck dissection (p = 0.019, p = 0.029), and high pitch voice (F0; p = 0.005, SFF; p = 0.016) were associated with high TVSQ score at two years.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients frequently experience voice discomfort after thyroidectomy. After surgery, voice abuse history including professional voice users, greater extent of surgery, and higher pitch voice are associated with worse voice quality and increased risk of persistent voice symptoms over the long-term.
