It was shown that a hypertonic test from 0.5 ml of 1.0% solution of Mezaton made before the end of operation as well a decrease of the volume of the ablated gland bed using an original fascio-tracheopexy allowed reduction of frequency of bleedings in the thyroid gland bed from 0.36% per 2750 operations in 2005-2007 to 0.16% per 826 surgical procedures at the period 2008-2010. The symptoms of bleedings in the thyroid gland bed are enumerated and efficient actions of the personnel and surgeons for prevention of asphyxia and cardiac arrest.
