Methods: Data of patients who underwent thyroidectomy were retrospectively analyzed. The patients who underwent bilateral total thyroidectomy were included to the study. Patients’ age, gender and histopathological results were recorded. According to the histopathological reports we divided the patients into two groups either as benign or malignant.

The subtypes of malignant tumors were papillary carcinoma in 591 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(93.4%);, medullary carcinoma in 16 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(2.5%);, follicular carcinoma in 14 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(2.2%);, oncocytic insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(hurtle cell); carcinoma in 7 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(1.1%); and undifferentiated insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(anaplastic); in 5insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(0.8%); of the cases.
