Postoperative complications in patients with thyroid and parathyroid gland pathology are very common in surgical practice and depend on many factors. For the prevention and provision of necessary planned medical care in inpatient settings, it is necessary to familiarize yourself with the main postoperative complications and the causes of their occurrence. The aim of the study was to analyse complications after surgical intervention on the thyroid gland, to study ways of prevention. The evaluation of the information bases of the PubMed, Medline, and e-library systems was carried out. Key words (search words): «thyroidectomy», «complications of thyroid surgery», «thyroid complications», «laryngeal nerve». As a result of the analysis, publications that meet the search criteria were found and studied. An analysis of the long-term results of operations for thyroid diseases showed that surgery for excision of one lobe of the gland and incomplete removal of it leads to fewer complications.
