POST-OPERATIVE HYPOCALCEMIA AMONG ONGOING PATIENTS AFTER TOTAL AND SUBTOTAL THYROIDECTOMY

open access: yesThe Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences, 2018
Background: Hypocalcemia is a major post-operative complication of total thyroidectomy, causing severe symptoms and increasing hospitalization time. The primary cause is secondary hypoparathyroidism following damage to or devascularization of one or more

Postoperative Hypocalcemia Following Total Thyroidectomy Versus Completion Thyroidectomy. [PDF]

open access: yesLaryngoscope
Completion thyroidectomy performed with at least a three‐month interval demonstrates superior parathyroid preservation compared to primary total thyroidectomy, as evidenced by significantly higher postoperative parathyroid hormone levels (51.90 ± 30.26 pg/mL vs. 30.90 ± 17.10 pg/mL, p = 0.006).

Surgery After Thermal Ablation of Thyroid Nodules: A Systematic Review of Surgical Risk, Strategy and Pathological Findings

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Thermal ablation is increasingly used for selected thyroid nodules, but some patients subsequently require thyroidectomy. The effect of prior ablation on surgical risk, operative strategy, and histopathology remains unclear. Methods PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were searched from inception to May 2026 for studies

Recombinant activated factor VIIa for severe postpartum hemorrhage in Africa: Evidence, appropriate use, and research priorities—A narrative review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) accounts for 30%–50% of maternal mortality in Africa and occurs in the context of pre‐existing anemia, limited blood product availability, delayed recognition, and constrained referral systems. Although bundle‐based care (E‐MOTIVE), early tranexamic acid (TXA), and uterotonics have substantially improved outcomes, a
