Serum Magnesium: A Forgotten Electrolyte after Total Thyroidectomy [PDF]
Hypocalcemia is a common complication after total thyroidectomy; however, hypomagnesemia is also frequently detected, and its role is often disregarded. We report a 72-year-old woman who underwent total thyroidectomy with neck dissection and subsequently

Postoperative Hypocalcemia Following Total Thyroidectomy Versus Completion Thyroidectomy. [PDF]
Completion thyroidectomy performed with at least a three‐month interval demonstrates superior parathyroid preservation compared to primary total thyroidectomy, as evidenced by significantly higher postoperative parathyroid hormone levels (51.90 ± 30.26 pg/mL vs. 30.90 ± 17.10 pg/mL, p = 0.006).

Total Endoscopic Thyroidectomy
We have developed endoscopic thyroidectomy procedures using anterior chest and axillary approaches. Both of our procedures differ significantly from the usual thyroidectomy, which involves lifting both the platysma and the sternohyoid muscle. Because only the platysma is lifted during our procedures, a CO(2) insufflation pressure of less than 4 mmHg is
