[An exploration of safety and feasibility of transoral vestibular endoscopy in the treatment of thyroid malignant tumors].

Abstract
Objective:To investigate the safety and feasibility of transoral vestibular endoscopy in the treatment of patients with thyroid malignant tumors. Methods:120 patients with thyroid cancer admitted to Xi 'an Central Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were selected and randomly divided into endoscopic surgery group(60 cases) and traditional open surgery group(60 cases). The general operation conditions, postoperative complications and postoperative quality of life were compared between the two groups. Results:The intraoperative blood loss, indwelling drainage tube time and average length of hospital stay in the endoscopic surgery group were significantly lower than those in the traditional open surgery group (P<0.05), while the operation time and number of lymph nodes dissected were significantly higher than those in the traditional open surgery group (P<0.05). There was no significant differences in VAS score at 24h after surgery, white blood cell count, TgAb (+) and temporary hypothyroidism between the two groups at 24 h after operation (P >0.05). The CRP, total drainage volume, TgAb and serum calcium in the endoscopic surgery group were higher than those in the traditional open surgery group, and the PTH and Tg were lower than those in the traditional open surgery group (P<0.05).One case of hoarseness,2 cases of extremities numbness, 1 case of subcutaneous effusion and 2 cases of chin nerve injury occurred in the endoscopic surgery group, the total incidence of postoperative complications was 10.00%. Five cases of hoarseness, 11 cases of choking cough limbs numbness, 1 case of drinking water, 1 case of postoperative bleeding and 4 cases of subcutaneous effusion occurred in the traditional open surgery group, the total postoperative incidence of complications was 36.67%, the total incidence of complications in endoscopic surgery group was lower than that in traditional open surgery group (P<0.05). The total scores of physiological status, social/family status, emotional status, functional status and quality of life in endoscopic surgery group were significantly lower than those in traditional open surgery group (P<0.05). Conclusion:The application of oral vestibular endoscopy in the treatment of thyroid malignant tumors has the advantages of good surgical status and postoperative recovery, fewer postoperative complications.The patient was well tolerated,with positive safety,this technique has high clinical application value.
