dc.description.abstract | Objectives/Hypothesis We compared the scar quality when different protocols were applied, and eventually aim to find the optimal scar management protocol. Study Design We conducted a prospective, randomized, and blinded comparison of different scar management protocols in a single center. Methods We allocated 126 patients who underwent thyroidectomy via collar neck incision randomly into three groups. Patients in group A were treated with tissue adhesive only. Patients in group B were treated by means of subcuticular suturing and early scar management with a non-ablative fractional laser (NAFL) and intralesional triamcinolone injection (ILI). Patients in group C had skin closure with tissue adhesive and early scar management. At 6 months after the operation, the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS) and the width of the final scar were compared. Results Comparing the sum of PSAS, groups B and C showed significant higher satisfaction than did group A (22.81 +/- 11.66 in group A, 10.9 +/- 5.14 in group B, and 15.19 +/- 9.98 in group C). In the sum of OSAS, group B also showed a significant difference than did groups A and C (17.74 +/- 6.75 in group A, 10.26 +/- 3.60 in group B, and 14.52 +/- 6.48 in group C). Also, group B showed a narrower scar width than did groups A and C. Conclusions Our finding suggests that subcuticular suturing using barbed suture material and early treatment with a combination therapy using NAFL and ILI showed a favorable aesthetic outcome for both patients and operators. Based on our algorithmic approach for thyroidectomy scar, we anticipate an optimal aesthetic outcome. Level of Evidence II Laryngoscope, 2021 | - |
