Practical aspects of preparation of the patient for the thyroid gland surgery.
The aim of the study is to present practical suggestions of how to prepare a patient for thyroid gland surgery. Widespread distribution of thyroid diseases results in referring the patients for strumectomy. Proper preparation of the patient for the operation decreases the risk of perioperative complications to a minimum. Good co-operation in the team endocrinologist-anaestesiologist-surgeon is very important for the effective treatment.
