Goiter, Nodular Clinical Trial
Official title:
Thyroidectomy Improves Tracheal Anatomy and Airflow in Patients With Nodular Goiter: A Prospective Cohort Study
The investigators aimed at investigating the effects of thyroidectomy on tracheal anatomy
and airflow in patients with benign nodular goiter, employing a prospective observational
study.
Magnetic resonance images of the neck and respiratory flow-volume curves were performed
prior to and six months following surgery. Tracheal and thyroid volumes, smallest
cross-sectional area of the trachea (SCAT), tracheal narrowing, tracheal deviation and
tracheal encirclement by the thyroid were evaluated. Through flow-volume curves respiratory
function, including both in- and expiration, was evaluated.
