Rare But Risky: Clinical Impacts of Pneumothorax After Thyroidectomy and Parathyroidectomy

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Postoperative pneumothorax (PPTX) is rare after thyroidectomy or parathyroidectomy, occurring in up to 0.10% of cases. However, it is associated with increased risks of all‐cause mortality, adverse respiratory events, and healthcare utilization rates in up to 1 year after surgery, deeming PPTX as a potential marker of increased postoperative ...

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

The 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

Perspective: Transient postparturient hypocalcemia—A lactation-induced phenomenon of high-producing dairy cows

Journal of Dairy Science, 2023
: Milk fever is one of the most historically relevant diseases of dairy cows. It is caused by tremendous calcium (Ca) expenditure at the initiation of lactation, so severe that cows can no longer stand and, if left untreated, die.

Continuous Intrajejunal Levodopa–Carbidopa Infusion in Parkinson's Disease Associated with 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome: A Case Series

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is a multisystem genetic disorder associated with a significantly increased risk of early‐onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD). Management is challenging because psychiatric and cognitive comorbidities often limit advanced therapies such as deep brain stimulation (DBS). Cases We report 2 patients with

A Phase 1 Study of Convection‐Enhanced Delivery of Intraputaminal AAV2‐GDNF in Advanced Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder. Neurotrophic therapeutic approaches have been limited in part by incomplete delivery to the putamen. We developed image‐guided convection‐enhanced delivery with real‐time monitoring to improve intraputaminal distribution of neurotrophic gene therapy. Objectives To

The Role of Thyroidectomy in the Management of Thyroglossal Duct Carcinoma: A Systematic Review

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The extent of surgical management of thyroglossal duct‐associated differentiated thyroid carcinoma remains controversial. This study aims to evaluate the role of total thyroidectomy in patients with thyroglossal duct‐associated differentiated thyroid carcinoma and provide insights to support individualized, evidence‐based care.

Monogenic and syndromic obesity in children: Clinical recognition, genetics, and precision management

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Monogenic and syndromic obesity in children often arises from defects in the leptin–melanocortin pathway. Understanding these rare genetic causes not only clarifies mechanisms of appetite regulation but also enables precision therapies, offering hope beyond lifestyle interventions.
