متن کاملParathyroid hormone: a sensitive predictor of hypocalcemia following total thyroidectomy.
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether monitoring parathyroid hormone (PTH) could predict hypocalcemia following total thyroidectomy or other bilateral thyroid manipulations. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING Forty patients undergoing total thyroidectomy as well as other bilateral thyroid procedures were prospectively enrolled. PTH levels were measured preoperatively and 30 minutes postoperatively. Calcium ...

متن کاملEvolution of blood magnesium and phosphorus ion levels following thyroidectomy and correlation with total calcium values.
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE magnesium ion concentration is directly related and phosphorus ion concentration is inversely related to calcemia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the evolution of magnesium and phosphorus ion levels in patients undergoing thyroidectomy and correlate these with changes to calcium concentration. DESIGN AND SETTING prospective study at the Alpha Institute of Gastroen...
