Objective: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common endocrine disease that is characterized by hypercalcemia and commonly associated with parathyroid adenoma (PTA). Hypocalcemia is a common postoperative complication in patients with PHPT.

It is essential to consider hypocalcemia as a cause of stridor, especially following postoperative thyroidectomy, as hypocalcemia secondary to hypoparathyroidism is an important differential diagnosis.

Background: Total thyroidectomy (TT) is a commonly performed surgery and postoperative hypocalcemia is a major detriment to early discharge. The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to ascertain the usefulness of routine pre- and post-operative ...

Predictors of severe postoperative hypocalcemia following parathyroid-ectomy for primary hyperparathyroidism: a retrospective cohort study. [PDF]
Aims: Postoperative hypocalcemia is a common complication following parathyroidectomy for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), ranging from transient, asymptomatic decreases in serum calcium to prolonged hungry bone syndrome (HBS).

Treatment of postoperative hypocalcemia
Postoperative hypocalcemia is one of the most common complications of thyroid surgery. It is related to the type of disease (malignant or benign), number of parathyroid glands identified during surgical procedure, re-operation and the surgeon's experience. Postoperative hypoparathyroidism can be temporary or permanent.

Reliable Early Prediction for Different Types of Post-Thyroidectomy Hypocalcemia [PDF]
ObjectivesHigh incidence of hypocalcemia after thyroidectomy is a major determinant in delay of discharge. Even though many studies have focused on the search for reliable early predictors of postoperative hypocalcemia, definitions of hypocalcemia are ...

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 ...

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
