Abstract   A retrospective analysis of 175 consecutive total thyroidectomies performed at Yonsei University Hospital was conducted. Complications were observed in 71 patients. The permanent complications, such as recurrent laryngeal nerve injury and permanent hypoparathyriodism, were in 6(3.4%). Analysing the factors affecting the complication, extents of resection and disease status were proved to be significant. We think that this low permanent complication rate deserves to be accounted for and total thyroidectomy is a relatively safe operation when meticulous and skillful dissections are performed.
