title: [Influence of different thyroidectomy on perioperative blood calcium concentration].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  lo discuss the inmtluence of different thyroidectomy on perioperative blood calcium concentration.
  
  
  METHODS
  Total number of patients was 240. These patients of thyroid tumors were recruited. Clinical and follow-up datum were retrospective analyzed.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Patients were divided into four groups by different operative methods. Group one was patients taken one-side thyroidectomy, group two taken one-side lymph node dissection plus, group three taken two-sides thyroidectomy,and group four taken one or two sides lymph node dissection plus. Group two was easier to become hypocalcemia and their calcium concentration decreased more remarkably, compared with group one. Patients taken two-sides thyroidectomy had the familiar outcome.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Patients taken lymph node dissection were easier to become hypocalcemia, compared with patients only taken thyroidectomy.
