Brief Summary:
the study aimed at evaluating efficacy of auto-transplantation of thyroid tissue after total thyroidectomy in benign thyroid disorders to keep the patient euthyroid with no need for life long hormone replacement therapy.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Thyroid Diseases Procedure: total thyroidectomy followed by thyroid auto transplantation

Detailed Description:
This study will be a prospective study which will be conducted at Sohag University Hospital after approval of the protocol the study population include . Adult patients with goiters are seen in the general surgery outpatient clinic The study included thirty studied cases presented in the outpatient clinic with benign thyroid disorders for whom total thyroidectomy was performed

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
patient undergone total thyroidectomy followed by thyroid auto transplantation Procedure: total thyroidectomy followed by thyroid auto transplantation

All studied cases received general endotracheal anaesthesia, and all underwent total thyroidectomy.

Frozen section will be done intraoperative to exclude malignancy and obtain piece of healthy tissue part .

Most healthy-looking part of gland was selected after complete excision. Thyroid tissue to be transplanted weighed between two and five grammes. This section was finely split into ten-fifteen fragments with scalpel. Small pocket was created in sternomastoid muscle, into which these minor fragments were implanted, and this pocket was closed with absorbable sutures to prevent displacement of implanted fragments and was marked with metallic stables, as well as good hemostasis of thyroid bed and skin was closed with subcuticular sutures using absorbable three-zero Vicryl sutures.





Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Thyroid function following thyroid auto transplantation after total thyroidectomy [ Time Frame: six months ]
    Thyroid hormone levels will be assessed after auto transplantation of thyroid tissue from benign thyroid patients following total thyroidectomy
