METHOD OF THYROID GLAND RESECTION ASSISTED BY INTRAOPERATIVE PHOTODYNAMIC VISUALISATION OF PARATHYROID GLANDS

摘要

FIELD: medicine. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine and can be used for thyroid gland resection assisted by intraoperative photodynamic visualisation of parathyroid glands. That is ensured by double oral introduction of 5-aminolevulinic acid in dosage 20 mg/kg 18015 min prior to the beginning of operation and in dosage 10 mg/kg 6010 min prior to the beginning of operation. Herewith, the tissue is exposed to polarised blue light with using an endoscope provided with a filter system for fluorescence registration. ^ EFFECT: method allows more quickly and effectively removing thyroid gland tissue with preserving functions of parathyroid glands and laryngeal nerves without complications, reducing operative injures due to photodynamic visualisation. ^ 1 tbl, 1 ex
