Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Study Design : Total of 400 patients who undergoing total thyroidectomy or lobectomy for thyroidal disorders will be randomly allocated to be drained or not. Postoperative ultrasonographic (USG) neck examination will be performed for all patients on postoperative 24th hour by the same ultrasonologist each time. Postoperative pain, complications and hospital stay will be recorded. The statistical analysis will be performed and p\<0,05 will be accepted as an important statistical value (SPSS 16.0 for Windows).

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
According to the thyroidal disorder, total thyroidectomy or lobectomy plus isthmectomy will be performed. The operating time will be defined as the time from the first incision to the last suture's placement. 4/0 polypropylene sutures will be used subcutaneously for wound closure. In the drain group a closed suction drain with negative pressure (Hemovac®) was brought out through a separate wound.
