Abstract
During the last 6 months of 1991 we operated on 250 patients for thyroid diseases; among them, 116 were studied to evaluate the effects of a fibrin sealant (Tissucol, Immuno) in thyroid surgery. We analyzed our data with regard to the technique performed (total lobectomy, subtotal thyroidectomy, or total thyroidectomy), without considering basic illness. Patients treated with fibrin glue (n=51) formed group 1. Untreated patients (n=65) formed group 2.
