Summary: | Objective
Determine the effect of patient demographics and surgical approach on patient outcomes after tracheal resection in the management of thyroid cancer.
Study Design
Systematic review and meta‐analysis.
Methods
Systematic review of literature was performed using PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library to identify patients with thyroid carcinoma who underwent tracheal resection. Pooled estimates for patient demographics, presenting findings, complications, and outcomes are determined using random‐effects meta‐analyses.
Results
Ninety‐six relevant studies encompassing 1,179 patients met inclusion criteria. Meta‐analysis pooled rates of complications: 1.7% (confidence interval [CI] 0.8–2.5; P |
