The procedure and postoperative care will be standardized to the degree described as follows: One 10 French Jackson-Pratt drain will be used. All necks will be closed with 3-0 vicryl, 4-0 monocryl, and 5-0 fast absorbing sutures. All patients will receive standardized postoperative orders including inpatient antibiotics not to exceed 24hrs (unless an infection is suspected) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prophylaxis; either weight based subcutaneous heparin or enoxaparin. The chief resident will receive an email indicating when to remove drain. All patients will receive standardized postoperative instructions including wound care with and without drain. A standardized physical exam will be performed on all patients every day of inpatient stay by the chief resident and on postoperative appointment (5-8 days post-operatively) by the attending surgeon to evaluate for clinical evidence of seroma and hematomas.
