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

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 10, Page 4589-4595, October 2026.
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 ...

The Economics of Intraoperative Parathyroid Hormone Monitoring for Parathyroid Surgery: A Scoping Review of Cost Analyses and Economic Evaluations

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Intraoperative PTH (IOPTH) monitoring is recommended for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), but questions surround its added clinical value and financial cost. We evaluated the methodological quality of economic evaluations investigating IOPTH monitoring in surgery for PHPT.

Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering‐Based Multimodal Medical Imaging in Cancer Diagnosis and Therapy Monitoring

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has emerged as a highly sensitive and specific technique for tumor imaging, owing to its narrow spectral features, resistance to photobleaching, and capability for multiplexed detection. However, its clinical translation remains limited by poor tissue penetration and the absence of intrinsic anatomical ...
