Abstract

To record the incidence of hypothyroidism in patients after total laryngectomy, whether with or without postoperative radiation therapy and to analyze the effect of hemithyroidectomy for the development of hypothyroidism. A retrospective study included patients who underwent total laryngectomy (with or without hemithyroidectomy) between 2018 and 2021 for laryngeal carcinoma and/or received postoperative radiotherapy. Thirty-six (45%) of the 80 enrolled patients developed hypothyroidism after a median follow-up of 16 months. In this study, adjuvant radiation and central neck dissection were found to be significantly linked with developing post-operative hypothyroidism (p values: 0.001, 0.007, respectively). The incidence of hypothyroidism in patients treated for laryngeal carcinoma is high, especially after combination treatment of surgery and radiotherapy.
