What complications does thyroid cancer easily lead to

What complications may result from thyroid cancer?

1. Bleeding after thyroid cancer surgery is the most critical complication. It is mainly caused by incomplete or imperfect hemostasis or ligature detachment. Coughing, vomiting, excessive activity or conversation after surgery are also causes of bleeding.

2. Prevention and care of bleeding complications of thyroid cancer. During the operation, ligation is performed first and then suture to prevent incomplete hemostasis, imperfect hemostasis or ligature detachment. The "thyroid simple negative pressure drainage device" is placed at the lowest point of the wound cavity to promote drainage and accurate recording. After the operation, patients with stable blood pressure are allowed to take a semi-sitting position and closely observe whether P, R, BP dyspnea and suffocation change. Observe whether the neck is rapidly enlarged and whether there is bleeding from the incision dressing. Guide patients to use the correct coughing method, treat vomiting caused by different reasons accordingly, limit visits, and let patients communicate through gestures or writing as much as possible to reduce bleeding.

3. In addition, recurrent laryngeal nerve and superior laryngeal nerve injury are important complications in thyroid surgery, mainly caused by careless operation, traction or hematoma compression of nerves or direct contusion.
