Early Postoperative PTH Determination as Predictor for Post-Thyroidectomy Hypocalcemia. [PDF]

Int Arch Otorhinolaryngol
Post-thyroidectomy hypocalcemia is a major complication following total thyroidectomy. This study aimed to evaluate early postoperative parathyroid hormone (PTH) measurement as a predictor of hypocalcemia after thyroidectomy and its impact on same-day ...

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 ...

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 ...

Predictors of severe postoperative hypocalcemia following parathyroid-ectomy for primary hyperparathyroidism: a retrospective cohort study. [PDF]

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).
