Vitamin D Deficiency as a Predictive Factor of Transient Hypocalcemia after Total Thyroidectomy
International Journal of Endocrinology, 2020 Background. Total thyroidectomy (TT) is recommended in the treatment of malignant and benignant thyroid diseases, and, to date, transient hypocalcemia is the most frequent complication after the procedure. We prospectively evaluated the role of vitamin D

Prediction of the Outcome of Postoperative Hypocalcemia in Graves' Disease.
Endocrinologia Japonica, 1992 Symptomatic hypocalcemia sometimes follows subtotal thyroidectomy for Graves' disease. Irreversible damage to the parathyroids contributes to permanent hypocalcemia and the mechanism for a transient hypocalcemia is thought to be different from that of a permanent one.

Rare But Risky: Clinical Impacts of Pneumothorax After Thyroidectomy and Parathyroidectomy
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.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 ...
