[THYROID SURGERY WITH ELECTRIC WELDING OF BIOLOGICAL TISSUE: COURSE OF THE EARLY POSTOPERATIVE PERIOD].

The experience of performing surgery on the thyroid gland (TG) in 205 patients was generalised, including the use of electric welding of biological tissue technologies (EST) — at 95. We used the apparatus for electric welding and high frequency surgical coagulator EK300—M1 and EKVZ—300 "Patonmed" as well as the original adaptive bipolar coagulation instruments. Operations carried out under endotracheal anesthesia "open" process, completed their stratified overlay nodal joints and vacuum—suction drainage. To assess the effectiveness of EST in thyroid surgery were analyzed during the early postoperative period. The positive impact of technology EST not only on surgical tactics, but also course of the early postoperative period. Recommended use of EST as a standard for surgical interventions on the thyroid.
