What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Dose subfascial approach make better result of swallowing function? | To see the effect of subfascial approach for postthyroidectomy swallowing symptom , we will compare the swallowing function between group I(subfascial approach) and group II(subplatysmal approach) after completion of study(after 1 year f/u). To check the safety of this study, our result will be checked by korea institutional reveiw board every one year. | Until 1 year follow up | 
| Dose subfascial approach make better result of voice symptom? | To see the effect of subfascial approach for postthyroidectomy voice function, we will compare the voice function(e.g. hoarseness) between group I(subfascial approach) and group II(subplatysmal approach) after completion of study(after 1 year f/u). To check the safety of this study, our result will be checked by korea institutional reveiw board every one year. | Until 1 year follow up | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| The efficacy of subfascial approach in thyroid cancer | To see the effect of subfascial approach for postthyroidectomy sensory symptom on neck, we will compare the sensory function and between group I(subfascial approach) and group II(subplatysmal approach) after completion of study(after 1 year f/u). To check the safety of this study, our result will be checked by korea institutional reveiw board every one year. | Until 1 year follow up |
