The evolution of parathyroidectomy failures

Surgery, 1999
Reported operative failure rates for primary hyperparathyroidism range from 5% to 10%. Failure has been due to multiglandular disease, ectopic parathyroid glands, errors in frozen section, and missed diagnoses. Recently, our operative approach has changed from bilateral cervical exploration to direction by preoperative localization and intraoperative ...

Factors Increasing the Likelihood of Postoperative Hematomas Following Thyroid Surgery

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neck hematoma following thyroid surgery is a potentially life‐threatening complication. Methods This retrospective case–control study reviewed neck hematoma reoperations following thyroid surgery (2009–2024), using 3:1 matching. Univariable analysis identified hematoma and delayed onset (≥ 6 h) risk factors, with odds ratios (ORs ...

Instant Intraoperative Histopathological Assessment of Fresh Parathyroid Tissue: Higher Harmonic Generation Microscopy as a Potential Alternative to Frozen Section

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hypoparathyroidism is a complication associated with significant morbidity and results from inadvertent removal of the parathyroid during thyroid surgery. Therefore, intra‐operative identification of parathyroid tissue is essential to minimize the risk of hypoparathyroidism.

Evaluation of Radiofrequency Ablation Safety and Efficacy in Primary Hyperparathyroidism: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study in Taiwan and Literature Review

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is increasingly recognized as a minimally invasive option for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ultrasound (US)‐guided RFA for the treatment of PHPT in Taiwan.

Prevalence of Esophageal Webs in Patients Undergoing Direct Laryngoscopy

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
PES webs may be more common than what is traditionally cited in the literature. The prevalence of PES webs in this retrospective cohort study was found to be 34%. Webs may be more likely in patients with a history of irradiation to the head and neck, and only one‐third of patients with a PES web in our cohort had dysphagia symptoms.

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

World 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.

Predictors of Mortality in Patients With Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
SUMMARY Objective Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1 (MEN 1) is an autosomal dominant disease predisposing to hyperplasia and neoplasia in diverse endocrine tissues. Patients typically present with endocrine abnormalities before the age of 30 years and have reduced life expectancy.
