Treatment of postoperative hypocalcemia

Acta clinica Croatica, 2007
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.

Usefulness of pre- and post-operative calcium and Vitamin D supplementation in prevention of hypocalcemia after total thyroidectomy: A randomized controlled trial

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2017
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 ...

Hypocalcemia as an important differential diagnosis in patients suffering from stridor following thyroidectomy

Clinical Case Reports, 2021
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.

Preventing Postoperative Hypocalcemia in Patients with Graves Disease: A Prospective Study [PDF]

Annals of Surgical Oncology, 2014
Hypocalcemia occurs after total thyroidectomy (TT) for Graves disease via parathyroid injury and/or from increased bone turnover. Current management is to supplement calcium after surgery. This study evaluates the impact of preoperative calcium supplementation on hypocalcemia after Graves TT.A prospective study of patients with Graves disease ...

Surgery After Thermal Ablation of Thyroid Nodules: A Systematic Review of Surgical Risk, Strategy and Pathological Findings

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Thermal ablation is increasingly used for selected thyroid nodules, but some patients subsequently require thyroidectomy. The effect of prior ablation on surgical risk, operative strategy, and histopathology remains unclear. Methods PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were searched from inception to May 2026 for studies

Hemithyroidectomy Eligibility Under ATA 2015 and 2025 Criteria: A Reclassification Cohort Study

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To compare hemithyroidectomy eligibility and completion thyroidectomy recommendations under the ATA 2015 and ATA 2025 criteria within the same patient cohort (primary aim) and, as a secondary descriptive analysis, to assess the concordance between these guideline‐based classifications and the operations actually performed.

Batna Journal of Medical Sciences
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).

Reliable Early Prediction for Different Types of Post-Thyroidectomy Hypocalcemia [PDF]

Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2011
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 ...

Radiofrequency Ablation as a Safe and Effective Treatment for Thyroid Nodules After Lobectomy

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A new symptomatic nodule may develop or a preexisting nodule may grow to warrant treatment in the remaining lobe of patients who previously had a unilateral thyroid lobectomy. Conventional management often results in completion thyroidectomy, but radiofrequency ablation (RFA) offers a minimally invasive alternative to surgical ...
