Parathyroid 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 کاملHypocalcemia following total thyroidectomy: early factors predicting long-term outcome.

The aim of this study was to identify early risk factors predicting long-term outcome of postoperative hypocalcemia. Among 453 patients who underwent TT from January 1998 to May 2003, a cross-sectional study between 44 patients with transient hypocalcemia (9.7%)...

It is related to the type of disease (malignant or benign), the number of identified parathyroid glands during the surgical procedure, and the surgeon's experience. Total thyroidectomy is the procedure of choice in our hospital for benign and malignant thyroid disease, but it can increase the incid...
