The key to simplified management of an undescended parathyroid adenoma
Undescended parathyroid adenoma is a rare cause of primary hyperparathyroidism that happens < 1% of cases. If not suspected, it can lead to a negative bilateral parathyroid exploration and extensive iatrogenic trauma.

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

ACR‐TIRADS Institution and Effect on Thyroid Surgeries in Veterans: A 10‐Year Retrospective Study
Following analysis of the adoption of ACR TI‐RADS at the VA Northern California Healthcare System, the number of thyroid ultrasounds and FNAs increased substantially, while the total number of thyroid surgeries remained relatively stable. Surgical practice trends towards more selective and less‐invasive management, with fewer total thyroidectomies for ...
