U.S., July 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07681557) titled 'Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose and Voice Quality After Total Thyroidectomy' on June 26.
Brief Summary: This randomized controlled trial evaluated whether placement of oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) over the recurrent laryngeal nerves during total thyroidectomy affects early postoperative voice quality. Patients undergoing bilateral total thyroidectomy for benign or malignant thyroid disease were assigned in a 1:1 ratio to bilateral placement of ORC within the thyroid bed or to conventional hemostasis without ORC.
