Review of Hypoparathyroidism [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2017
Hypoparathyroidism is a rare endocrine disorder in which parathyroid hormone (PTH) production is abnormally low or absent, resulting in low serum calcium and increased serum phosphorus. The most common cause of hypoparathyroidism is parathyroid gland injury or inadvertent removal during thyroid surgery.

Fluorescent Imaging in Thyroid Surgery to Preserve Parathyroid Function: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Hypoparathyroidism and postoperative hypocalcemia are rare but dreaded complications of thyroid surgery, often requiring increased follow‐up and contributing to financial and quality‐of‐life burdens. This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of intraoperative fluorescent imaging of parathyroid glands (PGs) in improving PG ...

Parathyroid Hormone Sampling From the Anterior Jugular Vein Versus Peripheral Vein After Total Thyroidectomy

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background To determine if anterior jugular vein sampling (AJVS) is non‐inferior to peripheral venous sampling (PVS) for measuring intraoperative parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels following total thyroidectomy. Methods This was a prospective non‐inferiority trial conducted at a tertiary academic medical center.
