Abstract

Outpatient thyroid surgery is growing in popularity because it can reduce length of hospital stay, lower costs of care, and increase patient satisfaction. There remains significant variation in the use of this practice, including a perceived lack of knowledge regarding the safety of outpatient thyroidectomies and how to implement standardized institutional protocols to ensure safe same-day discharge. we started doing thyroidectomies on an outpatient basis with 8-hour drainage, we operated on 22 patients with multinodular goiter without suspicion of malignancy. We had no postoperative complications and all our patients left the same day after removal of the drainage.
