Abstract
Objective: Thyroid surgery is one of the frequent surgeries in daily operation schedules more often since the thyroid gland is very vascular Hematomas after thyroidectomy may cause airway obstruction, which is life-threatening and requires immediate surgical intervention. Therefore, many hemostatic devices and methods have been developed. Tranexamic acid is a synthetic lysine analog with low molecular weight. This study was planned to demonstrate the effect of intraoperative topical tranexamic acid on postoperative drainage output for thyroid surgery.
