Tiroid Ameliyatlarından Sonra Yaranın Dren Konulmadan Kapatılması
Abstract
In our clinic, where wounds are routinely drained after thyroid surgery, we implemented drainage-free closure by meeting certain surgical requirements. We believed that if the outcome was favorable in terms of complications, this method would offer a significant cosmetic advantage. Indeed, we concluded that primary wound closure, provided certain conditions are met, is not a disadvantage; on the contrary, it offers significant advantages, both in terms of early wound closure and, above all, in terms of aesthetics.
