RESUMO

PURPOSE: Denosumab is used to treat patients with bone metastasis from solid tumors, but sometimes causes severe hypocalcemia, so careful clinical management is important. This study aims to externally validate our previously developed risk prediction model for denosumab-induced hypocalcemia by using data from two facilities with different characteristics in Japan and to develop an updated model with improved performance and generalizability. METHODS: In the external validation, retrospective data of Kameda General Hospital (KGH) and Miyagi Cancer Center (MCC) between June 2013 and June 2022 were used and receiver operating characteristic (ROC)-AUC was mainly evaluated. A scoring-based updated model was developed using the same data set from a hospital-based administrative database as previously employed. Selection of variables related to prediction of hypocalcemia was based on the results of external validation. RESULTS: For the external validation, data from 235 KGH patients and 224 MCC patients were collected. ROC-AUC values in the original model were 0.879 and 0.774, respectively. The updated model consisting of clinical laboratory tests (calcium, albumin, and alkaline phosphatase) afforded similar ROC-AUC values in the two facilities (KGH, 0.837; MCC, 0.856). CONCLUSION: We developed an updated risk prediction model for denosumab-induced hypocalcemia with small interfacility differences. Our results indicate the importance of using data from plural facilities with different characteristics in the external validation of generalized prediction models and may be generally relevant to the clinical application of risk prediction models. Our findings are expected to contribute to improved management of bone metastasis treatment.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Hypocalcemia post-metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) is a known long-term complication after hypoabsorptive procedures. However, data on immediate postoperative calcium are limited. Our aim was to evaluate the prevalence of hypocalcemia on the 1st postoperative day after MBS and correlate it with potential associated factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We analyzed data from all consecutive index MBS over 1 year. We collected data on demographics and on preoperative and postoperative values of serum calcium (TC), albumin, adjusted calcium (AC-Payne formula), magnesium, phosphorus, preoperative vitamin-D, and postoperative 24-h urine output, intravenous fluids (IVF), bolus intravenous furosemide, and creatine phosphokinase (CPK). Continuous data are expressed as means ± SD (range). Categorical data are presented as frequencies (%). Linear regression was implemented to designate potential correlations. RESULTS: The cohort included 86 patients (58.1% females). The mean preoperative TC was 9.4mg/dL ± 0.4 (8.5-10.5) and mean postoperative TC 7.8mg/dL ± 0.6 (6.3-9.3, 17.0% decrease). The mean preoperative AC was 10.1mg/dL ± 0.4 (9.2-11.2) and mean postoperative AC 8.5mg/dL ± 0.6 (7.0-10.0, 15.8% decrease). Seventy-three patients (84.8%) had abnormally low TC (< 8.5mg/dL), and 43 (50%) abnormally low AC. There was only weak correlation between postoperative TC and AC with magnesium (r = 0.258), phosphorus (r = 0.269), vitamin-D (-0.163), 24-h urine output (r = -0.168), IVF (r = -0.237), bolus furosemide (r = 0.155), and mean operative time (r = 0.010). CONCLUSIONS: In our cohort of patients, hypocalcemia was a real problem but we did not find any significant correlation with the examined factors. Further studies are warranted to validate our findings and investigate other potential correlations.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Iatrogenic hypoparathyroidism is a common cause of postthyroidectomy hypocalcaemia. It has varying incidence rates after neck surgery in Saudi Arabia, ranging from 0.07% to 65.30%. Hypoparathyroidism can manifest with a spectrum of symptoms, ranging from mild to severe and life-threatening. This study aimed to assess the rate and predictors of iatrogenic hypoparathyroidism after thyroid surgery and its natural course. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study used a data collection form to extract patient information from the electronic healthcare system (Best-Care) for patients treated from 2017 to 2022. Patients' demographics, surgical specifics and biochemical profiles were recorded for subsequent analysis. RESULTS: Among the 343 patients who underwent thyroidectomy, 130 (37.9%) developed hypoparathyroidism, primarily within the first day after surgery. Calcium or vitamin D supplementation before surgery did not significantly influence hypoparathyroidism development. Notably, extensive combined lymph node dissection was significantly associated with postoperative hypoparathyroidism development (p = 0.0004). More patients who underwent central and lateral lymph node dissection (n = 19, 79.17%) developed hypoparathyroidism than patients who underwent central (n = 18, 40.91%) or lateral (n = 8, 38.10%) dissection alone. Permanent hypoparathyroidism was observed in 40 patients (11.66%). CONCLUSION: This study revealed a high incidence of iatrogenic hypoparathyroidism and high rates of permanent hypoparathyroidism. Further research is warranted to better comprehend the risk factors and optimise management strategies for iatrogenic hypoparathyroidism. Overall, our findings emphasise the need for vigilant monitoring and effective management of patients undergoing thyroidectomy and the significance of postoperative replacement therapies.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The increase in thyroid cancer incidence has inevitably led to an increase in thyroid cancer surgeries. This meta-regression analysis aimed to determine if the rate of post-thyroidectomy complications changes by year. MATERIALS AND METHODS: PubMed and Embase databases were used to perform a systematic literature search of studies published from January 1, 2005, using the keywords "thyroidectomy" and "complication." A meta-regression was performed for post-thyroidectomy hypocalcemia and bleeding. RESULTS: This meta-analysis included 25 studies involving 927751 individuals. Through the years of publications in this study, there was no significant difference in the proportion of post-thyroidectomy hypocalcemia and bleeding (p=0.9978, 0.6393). CONCLUSION: Although the number of thyroid surgeries has recently increased, the incidence of post-thyroidectomy hypocalcemia and bleeding did not significantly increase.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Admission hypocalcemia has been associated with poor outcomes in injured adults. The impact of hypocalcemia on mortality has not been widely studied in pediatric trauma. METHODS: A pediatric trauma center database was queried retrospectively (2013-2022) for children younger than 18 years who received blood transfusion within 24 hours of injury and had ionized calcium (iCal) level on admission. Children who received massive transfusion (>40 mL/kg) prior to hospital arrival or calcium prior to laboratory testing were excluded. Hypocalcemia was defined by the laboratory lower limit (iCal <1.00). Main outcomes were in-hospital mortality and 24-hour blood product requirements. Logistic regression analysis was performed to adjust for Injury Severity Score (ISS), admission shock index, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, and weight-adjusted total transfusion volume. RESULTS: In total, 331 children with median (IQR) age of 7 years (2-3 years) and median (IQR) ISS 25 (14-33) were included, 32 (10%) of whom were hypocalcemic on arrival to the hospital. The hypocalcemic cohort had higher ISS (median (IQR) 30(24-36) vs. 22 (13-30)) and lower admission GCS score (median (IQR) 3 (3-12) vs. 8 (3-15)). Age, sex, race, and mechanism were not significantly different between groups. On univariate analysis, hypocalcemia was associated with increased in-hospital (56% vs. 18%; p < 0.001) and 24-hour (28% vs. 5%; p < 0.001) mortality. Children who were hypocalcemic received a median (IQR) of 22 mL/kg (7-38) more in total weight-adjusted 24-hour blood product transfusion following admission compared to the normocalcemic cohort ( p = 0.005). After adjusting for ISS, shock index, GCS score, and total transfusion volume, hypocalcemia remained independently associated with increased 24-hour (odds ratio, 4.93; 95% confidence interval, 1.77-13.77; p = 0.002) and in-hospital mortality (odds ratio, 3.41; 95% confidence interval, 1.22-9.51; p = 0.019). CONCLUSION: Hypocalcemia is independently associated with mortality and receipt of greater weight-adjusted volumes of blood product transfusion after injury in children. The benefit of timely calcium administration in pediatric trauma needs further exploration. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Prognostic and Epidemiological; Level III.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In the post-marketing stage, cases of hypocalcemia associated with bisphosphonate preparations (BPs) have been reported in patients with decreased kidney function, despite warning against use of BPs in such patients in the package insert (PI) of Japan. The purpose of this study was to investigate the safety of BPs in patients with decreased kidney function. METHODS: The cohort study was conducted in patients with osteoporosis and newly prescribed bisphosphonate utilizing real-world data from MID-NET® in Japan. The adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) for hypocalcemia (a corrected serum Ca level < 8.00 mg/dL) relative to the normal group were calculated in each decreased kidney function group (mild, moderate or severe group). RESULTS: A total of 14,551 patients were included in the analysis, comprising 2,601 (17.88%) with normal (eGFR ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73m2), 7,613 (52.32%) with mild (60 ≤ eGFR < 90 mL/min/1.73m2), 3,919 (26.93%) with moderate (30 ≤ eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73m2), and 418 (2.87%) with severe kidney function (eGFR < 30 mL/min/1.73m2). The aHRs (95% confidence interval) for hypocalcemia were 1.85 (0.75-4.57), 2.30 (0.86-6.21), and 22.74 (8.37-61.78) in the mild, moderate, and severe groups, respectively. The increased risk of hypocalcemia depending on kidney function was also observed even when calculating the aHR for each specific BP such as alendronate sodium hydrate, minodronic acid hydrate, and sodium risedronate hydrate. Furthermore, similar results were obtained in the sensitivity analysis by altering the outcome definition to a 20% or more reduction in corrected serum Ca level from the baseline, as well as when focusing on patients with more than one laboratory test result per 30 days during the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that the risk of hypocalcemia during BP prescription is higher in patients with decreased kidney function, particularly those with severely decreased kidney function. The quantitative real-world evidence on the safety risk of BPs obtained in this study has led to the PI revision describing a relationship between hypocalcemia risk and decreased kidney function as a regulatory action in Japan and will contribute to promoting the proper use of BPs with appropriate risk management in clinical practice.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Total thyroidectomy is the traditional primary approach for papillary thyroid cancer. However, recent evidence supports conservative management for low-risk tumors like papillary thyroid microcarcinomas (PTMCs). This study explores the adoption of these practices in our community, using a cancer database to analyze treatment strategies. METHODS: A retrospective review of a 1433-patient institutional database identified 258 â€‹PTMC cases. Outcomes, including 30-day mortality, reoperation rate, postoperative hypocalcemia, and recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury, were assessed. RESULTS: Of PTMC patients, 63.4% underwent total thyroidectomy, with higher rates of RLN injury (8.8% vs. 2.3%) and hypocalcemia (12.4% vs. 0.0%) compared to lobectomy. Non-endocrine surgeons had higher postoperative radioactive iodine administration rates (28.6% vs. 6.1%). Subgroup analysis revealed a shift in total thyroidectomy rates based on tumor size and surgery period. CONCLUSION: Our community favors total thyroidectomy for PTMC, despite associated complications. Enhanced awareness and adherence to PTMC best practice guidelines are warranted.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The most important factors affecting the development of postoperative hypocalcaemia (PH) include intraoperative trauma to the parathyroid glands, incidental parathyroidectomy (IP), and the surgeon's experience. In this study, we aimed to determine the incidence of IP, evaluate its effect on postoperative calcium levels and investigate the effect of surgeon experience and volume on IP incidence and postoperative calcium levels. METHODS: This retrospective study included 645 patients who underwent thyroid surgery at the Department of General Surgery, Kütahya Health Sciences University between September 2016 and March 2020. All patients underwent surgery at a single clinic by general surgeons experienced in thyroid surgery and their residents (3-5 years). RESULTS: Normal parathyroid glands were reported in 58 (8.9%) of 645 patients. In 5 (8.6%) of 58 patients the parathyroid gland was detected in the intrathyroidal region. PH developed in ten patients (17.2%) with incidental removal of the parathyroid glands. A statistically significant difference was found between the number of incidentally removed parathyroid glands and the development of hypocalcaemia (p<0.05). Normal parathyroid glands were reported in the pathology of 37 (7.9%) patients operated on by general surgeons and 22 (12.6%) patients operated on by their residents. PH developed in 39 (8.2%) patients operated on by general surgeons and in 8 (4.5%) patients operated on by their residents. CONCLUSIONS: We found that the complication rate during the resident training process was the same as that of experienced general surgeons. A thyroidectomy can be safely performed by senior residents during residential training.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between Lugol iodine treatment in a rescue setting and surgical outcomes in Graves' disease patients. METHODS: The retrospective register-based cohort study included 813 patients who had undergone primary total thyroidectomy with a primary diagnosis of Graves' disease (ICD-code E05.0) at Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm, Sweden, between January 2008 and December 2015. Of 813 patients, 33 (4.1%) were given Lugol iodine before surgery and the remaining, the non-Lugol group, did not. The study's primary outcomes were post-operative calcium treatment day 1, calcium and vitamin D supplements at discharge and follow-up. Secondary outcomes were laryngeal nerve damage and bleeding (defined as re-operation). RESULTS: Differences were found between the Lugol and non-Lugol groups in the treatment of calcium day 1 (45.5% vs 26.7%, p = 0.018), at discharge (36.4% vs. 16.2%, p = 0.002) and vitamin D supplements at discharge (36.4% vs. 19.1%, p = 0.015) as surrogate variables for hypocalcemia post-operatively. No differences could be seen at 4-6 weeks and six-months follow-up. There were no differences between the Lugol and non-Lugol groups in terms of operation time, laryngeal nerve damage, and bleeding. CONCLUSION: Patients in our cohort undergoing thyroidectomy due to Graves' disease pre-operatively treated with Lugol iodine as a rescue therapy had a higher risk of experiencing short term post-operative hypocalcemia.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: and Objectives: Hypocalcemia is a commonly reported complication after thyroid surgery. Many possible risk factors have been identified. The purpose of this study is to analyze various risk factors possibly associated with development of postoperative hypocalcemia after thyroid surgery by dividing the sample population into postoperative hypocalcemia and normal calcium groups. DESIGN: Retrospective. SETTING: Multiple centers in the Makkah region of Saudi Arabia. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Risk factors for postoperative hypocalcemia that were obtained for analysis include patient factors, perioperative blood parameters factors, disease-related factors, and surgical factors. Postoperative hypocalcemia was defined as a reduction of the total calcium level to <8.0 mg/dL. Hypocalcemic and normocalcemic patients were compared by multivariate logistic regression. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Distinguish independent risk factors for postoperative hypocalcemia after thyroidectomy. SAMPLE SIZE: 215 patients. RESULTS: The incidence of hypocalcemia was 52.1% (112 of 215 patients). According to multivariate analysis, statistically significant risk factors for predicting postoperative hypocalcemia included postoperative parathyroid hormone level <10 pg/dL, inadvertent parathyroid gland resection, and neck dissection surgeries. CONCLUSION: The causes of postoperative hypocalcemia are multi-factorial. Because many of these factors are modifiable, they should be identified postoperatively to distinguish high-risk groups and implement early preventive measures. LIMITATIONS: Retrospective with a relatively small size. We encourage additional prospective studies with a larger sample size in multiple regions of the country, which might reveal further significant results.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether perioperative calcium and 1,25 OH vitamin D supplementation (PCDS) influences the rates of postoperative hypocalcemia and length of stay (LOS) following pediatric thyroidectomy. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective Cohort Review. SETTING: Tertiary children's hospital. METHODS: 94 patients who underwent completion or total thyroidectomy with or without concomitant neck dissection from 2010 to 2020 at a single institution were included. Patients with pre-existing hypocalcemia or preoperative vitamin D insufficiency were excluded. Rates of postoperative hypocalcemia and LOS were compared for patients receiving PCDS to those receiving no supplementation. RESULTS: Thirty percent of patients with PCDS had documented postoperative hypocalcemia compared to 64% of patients without PCDS (p = 0.01). Patients with PCDS had a median LOS of 30 h compared to 36 h (p = 0.002). Multivariable analyses confirmed that patients with PCDS had lower odds of postoperative hypocalcemia (OR: 0.32, CI: 0.11, 0.89) and shorter LOS by 17 h (SE: 8, p = 0.04) after adjustment for confounders. CONCLUSION: PCDS is associated with significantly lower risk of hypocalcemia and shorter LOS. Standardizing preoperative care for pediatric patients undergoing thyroidectomy may decrease variability and improve outcomes following surgery.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Prophylactic central neck dissection (pCND) remains controversial during the initial surgery for preoperative and intraoperative node-negative (cN0) papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). METHODS: Patients undergoing thyroidectomy with or without pCND (Nx) for PTC in nine French surgical departments, registered in the EUROCRINE® national data in France between January 2015 and June 2021, were included in a cohort study. Demographic and clinicopathological characteristics, complications, and recurrence rates were compared using multivariate regression analysis. RESULTS: A total of 1905 patients with cN0 PTC were enrolled, including 1534 who had undergone pCND and 371 who hadn't (Nx). Of these, 1546 (81.2%) were female, and the median age was 49 years (range: 15-89 years). Patients who had undergone pCND were more likely to have multifocal tumors (n = 524 [34.2%] vs. n = 68 [18.3%], p < .001) and larger tumors (15.3 vs. 10.2 mm, p = .01) than patients with Nx. Of the patients with pCND, 553 (36%) had positive central LN (N1a), with a median of 1 N1 (IQR 0-5). pCND was associated with a higher temporary hypocalcemia rate (n = 25 [8%] vs. n = 15 [4%], p < .001). The rates of permanent hypocalcemia and temporary and permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) palsy were not significantly different between the two groups (p > .2). After adjusting for covariates (age, sex, multifocality, and pathological T stage) in a multivariable Cox PH model, the performance of lymph node dissection (pCND vs. no-pCND) was not associated with PTC recurrence (p = .2). CONCLUSION: pCND in PTC does not reduce recurrence and is associated with a two-fold increase in the incidence of transient hypoparathyroidism. These data should be considered while issuing further guidelines regarding the treatment of patients with cN0 PTC.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the ability of the percentage of decrease in serum PTH level in the first 8 h after total thyroidectomy (TT) to predict hypocalcemia requiring Ca supplementation and develop a tool to predict it. METHODS: 97 patients who underwent TT with measurement of preoperative parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels were prospectively evaluated 1 and 8 h after TT; postoperative magnesium (Mg2PO) and phosphorus levels were evaluated on the 2nd day after surgery. The percentage of decrease in PTH level 1 h (%dPTH1h) and 8 h (%dPTH8h) postoperatively and predictors of hypocalcemia requiring Ca supplementation were evaluated and an equation was developed to predict this outcome. RESULTS: %dPTH1h (p = 0.002), %dPTH8h (p = 0.001) and (Mg2PO) (p < 0.01) were isolated predictors of postoperative hypocalcemia requiring Ca supplementation. The data obtained led to the development of two tools to predict this complication. CONCLUSIONS: The percentage of decrease in PTH level 1 h and 8 h postoperatively and the magnesium level on the 2nd day after surgery were predictors of more severe hypocalcemia, and an auxiliary tool for predicting this complication was developed.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Outcomes and predictors of complications of thyroidectomy are diverse and have been extensively studied, but data from our country and other African countries with high disease burdens are limited. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the outcomes and predictors of complications of thyroidectomy among operated patients. METHOD: Single institution retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted by reviewing charts from 365 patients who had undergone thyroidectomy on an elective basis between March 2018-February 2022. All patients who were admitted and underwent thyroidectomy were included in this study. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to identify risk factors. P-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULT: Overall, post-thyroidectomy complications occurred in 17 % of the cases. The two most common complications were hypocalcemia and voice change; the latter being due to injury of either external branch of superior laryngeal nerve or recurrent laryngeal nerve with an incidence of 4.9 % and 2.5 % respectively. Thyroidectomy performed by surgical residents and having total thyroidectomy were significantly associated with overall complications of thyroidectomy. Total thyroidectomy was found to be a risk factor for postoperative hypocalcemia (AOR = 12.24 (95%CI: 4.53, 19.65); P = 0.02). Younger age of the patient (AOR =0.3(95%CI, 0.12,0.51)) and prolonged duration of presentation (AOR = 2.53(95%CI, 1.17,7.76)) were detected predictors of voice change due to injury of either external branch of superior laryngeal nerve or recurrent laryngeal nerve. CONCLUSION: The rate of thyroidectomy complications is relatively similar to other studies. In this study demographic and clinical factors associated with increased risk of complications after thyroid surgery were identified. This information will be useful for educating patients about the risks of thyroid surgery.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Hypocalcaemia forms part of the 'diamond of death' in major trauma, alongside hypothermia, acidosis and coagulopathy. In adults, admission hypocalcaemia prior to transfusion is associated with increased mortality, increased blood transfusion requirements and coagulopathy. Data on paediatric major trauma patients are limited. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to describe and synthesise the available evidence relevant to paediatric trauma, admission hypocalcaemia and outcome. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols guidelines will be used to construct this review. A planned literature search for articles in the English language will be conducted from inception to the date of searches using MEDLINE on the EBSCO platform, CINAHL on the EBSCO platform and Embase on the Ovid platform. The grey literature will also be searched. Both title and abstract screening and full-text screening will be done by two reviewers, with an adjudicating third reviewer. Heterogeneity will be assessed using the I2 test, and the risk of bias will be assessed using the ROBINS-I tool. A meta-analysis will be undertaken using ratio measures (OR) and mean differences for measures of effect. When possible, the estimate of effect will be presented along with a CI and a p value. ETHICAL REVIEW AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical review is not required, as no original data will be collected. Results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and at academic conferences. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42023425172.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The most frequent complication of total thyroidectomy remains hypocalcemia due to low postoperative levels of serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH). The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of decreased iPTH at the end of surgery in predicting hypocalcemia. In addition, we examined the percentage decrease of iPTH as potential indicator of hypocalcemia. METHODS: We retrospectively collected the data of patients who underwent total thyroidectomy for benign and malignant diseases at our institution between 2010 and 2022. The iPTH level was measured before and at the end of surgery, and serum calcium levels on the first postoperative day. Demographic, clinical, and biochemical characteristics of patients with low iPTH were compared with patients with normal iPTH levels using ANOVA for continuous variables and χ2-tests for categorical variables. Multivariable logistic regression analysis evaluated the association of iPTH at the end of surgery and the relative reduction of iPTH with postoperative hypocalcemia. RESULTS: The mean age of the 607 patients in this study was 55.6 years, and the female-to-male ratio was 5:1. Goiter was the most common indication for surgery (N = 382, 62.9%), followed by Graves' disease (N = 135, 22.2%). The mean preoperative iPTH was 49.0 pg/ml, while the mean postoperative iPTH was 29.3 pg/ml. A total of 197 patients (32.5%) had an iPTH level below normal, 77 patients (39%), had iPTH levels of 10-15.0 pg/ml and 120 patients (61%) of < 10.0 pg/ml at the end of surgery. Among all patients, 124 (20.4%) developed hypocalcemia on the first postoperative day. The mean percentage of decrease of iPTH was highest among patients with iPTH < 10 pg/ml (76.9%, p < 0.01); this group of patients had also the highest rate of postoperative hypocalcemia on day one (45.0% vs. 26.0% vs 12.2%, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Measurement of iPTH at the end of total thyroidectomy predicts patients who are at risk for postoperative hypocalcemia. The combination of low serum iPTH with a decrease in iPTH level of ≥ 50% may improve prediction of hypocalcemia compared to iPTH levels alone allowing for early calcium substitution in these patients at high risk of developing postoperative hypocalcemia.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Transient hypoparathyroidism is the most common complication after total thyroidectomy, and accidental parathyroidectomy (AP) may be a cause. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence of AP and its impact on postoperative calcemia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From February 2016 to May 2018, 766 patients undergoing total thyroidectomy were prospectively included. Surgical indications, hormonal status, definitive histology, and postoperative calcium and PTH levels were analyzed. RESULTS: 578/(75.45%) were women and 188/(24.55%) men with mean age of 53.4 years. Parathyroid tissue on the thyroid specimen was observed in 40 (5.2%) patients: 30 APs and 10 parathyroid fragments. Among the 30 APs, 12 glands were intrathyroid and 18 (2.3%) in eutopic location. 97 (12.6%) patients were treated for postoperative hypocalcemia: 90 (11.7%) had transient and 5 (0.6%) definitive hypoparathyroidism; 2 were lost in follow-up. 13/30 (43.3%) with AP had transient hypoparathyroidism. A strong correlation was found (p < 0.0001) between AP and postoperative hypocalcemia. 1/30 (3.3%) patient with APs had definitive hypoparathyroidism. Transient and persistent nerve palsies were found in 10 (1.3%) and 3 (0.4%) patients, respectively. DISCUSSION: A careful examination of the thyroid gland after resection help to identify an AP that could be autotransplanted. Surgeon and hospital activity volume per years seem to reduce the risk of hypoparathyroidism. CONCLUSION: Total thyroidectomy and intrathyroid localization of parathyroid glands are risk factors for the AP. The incidence of AP was 2.3%, and this remains low due to our longstanding experience in thyroid and parathyroid surgery.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The published rate of incidental parathyroidectomy (IP) during thyroid surgery varies between 5.8% and 29%. The risk factors and clinical significance of postoperative transient hypocalcemia and permanent hypoparathyroidism are still debated. The aims of this study were to assess the clinical relevance of avoidable IP for transient hypocalcemia and permanent hypoparathyroidism, and to describe the risk factors for IP. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 1,537 patients who had a one-step total thyroidectomy in a high-volume endocrine surgery center between 2018 and 2019. Pathology reports were reviewed for incidentally removed parathyroid glands. Intrathyroidal parathyroid glands were excluded from the study. Demographic characteristics, potential risk factors, and postoperative calcium and PTH levels were compared between IP and control groups. RESULTS: Avoidable IP occurred in 234 (15.2%) patients. Patients with IP had a higher risk of transient hypocalcemia (17.9% vs. 11.5%, p = 0.006; odds ratio [OR] 1.68, 95% confidence interval [95% CI]1.16-2.45) and permanent hypoparathyroidism (4.7% vs. 1.6%, p = 0.002; OR 3.01, 95% CI 1.29-6.63) than patients without IP. Multivariate analysis showed that central lymph node dissection (CLND) and incidental removal of thymus tissue were independent risk factors for IP (OR 4.83, 95% CI 2.71-8.86, p < 0.001 and OR 1.72, 95% CI 1.02-2.82, p = 0.038). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with IP were more likely to develop transient hypocalcemia and permanent hypoparathyroidism, indicating the clinical significance of avoidable IP for patients and the need for raising awareness among surgeons. Patients undergoing CLND are at a higher risk for IP, and should be adequately informed and treated. Any removal of thymus tissue should be avoided during CLND.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The incidence and risk factors for hypoparathyroidism after total thyroidectomy is well-known. However, the characteristics of hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia after hemithyroidectomy have not been investigated well. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the incidence, characteristics, and risk factors of hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia after hemithyroidectomy. METHOD: We retrospectively analyzed the medical data of 321 patients who underwent hemithyroidectomy, with or without central neck dissection, from January 2012 to April 2019. We analyzed the serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), calcium, and ionized calcium (iCa) levels serially (preoperatively and postoperatively on the operation day; days 1 and 3; and months 1, 3, 6, and 12) and evaluated risk factors for postoperative hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia. RESULTS: The mean iPTH and calcium levels decreased significantly after hemithyroidectomy on the operation day and postoperative days 1 and 3, and returned to the preoperative level at the postoperative 1-month follow-up. The mean iCa level decreased significantly on the operation day and postoperative day 1. Transient hypoparathyroidism and transient hypocalcemia occurred in 16 (5%) and 250 (78%) participants, and they recovered to normal levels postoperatively by 1 month. Eight (2.5%) patients had mild symptoms of hypocalcemia necessitating oral calcium supplementation. No permanent hypoparathyroidism or hypocalcemia was observed. Preoperatively low serum iPTH and calcium levels were associated with transient hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia after hemithyroidectomy. CONCLUSION: Approximately 5% and 2.5% of participants showed transient hypoparathyroidism and mild symptomatic hypocalcemia after hemithyroidectomy. The risk factors for transient hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia include preoperative low serum iPTH and calcium levels.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Hypocalcemia is commonly reported after thyroidectomy and has multiple possible etiologies including: parathyroid devascularization, reactive hypoparathyroidism from relative hypercalcemia in thyrotoxicosis, and abrupt reversal of thyrotoxic osteodystrophy. In patients that are actively hyperthyroid and undergoing thyroidectomy, it is not known how many experience hypocalcemia from nonhypoparathyroidism etiologies. Therefore, our aim was to examine the relationship among thyrotoxicosis, hypocalcemia, and hypoparathyroidism. METHODS: A retrospective review was performed of prospectively-collected data from all patients undergoing thyroidectomy for hyperthyroidism by 4 surgeons from 2016 to 2020. All patients carried a diagnosis of Graves' disease or toxic multinodular goiter. Patient demographics, preoperative medications, laboratory reports, and postoperative medications were reviewed. Hypocalcemia within the first month of surgery despite a normal parathyroid hormone (PTH) level was the primary outcome of interest and was compared between patients with and without thyrotoxicosis. Secondary outcomes were duration of postoperative calcium use and the relationship between preoperative calcium supplementation and postoperative calcium supplementation. Descriptive statistics, Wilcoxon rank-sum, and chi-square tests were used for bivariate analysis, as appropriate. RESULTS: A total of 191 patients were identified, with mean age of 40.5 y (range 6-86). Most patients were female (80%) and had Graves' disease (80%). At the time of surgery, 116 (61%) had uncontrolled hyperthyroidism (thyrotoxic group, Free Thyroxine >1.64 ng/dL or Free Triiodothyronine > 4.4 ng/dL), with the remaining 75 (39%) considered euthyroid. Postoperative hypocalcemia (calcium < 8.4 mg/dL) developed in 27 (14%), while hypoparathyroidism (PTH < 12 pg/mL) was observed in 39 (26%). Thyrotoxic patients comprised a majority of those with hypocalcemia (n = 22, 81%, P = 0.01) and hypoparathyroidism immediately following surgery (n = 14, 77%, P = 0.04). However, a majority of initially hypocalcemic, thyrotoxic patients had normal PTH values within the first month after surgery (n = 17, 85%), pointing to a potential nonparathyroid etiology. On bivariate analysis, no significant relationship was found for thyrotoxic patients with initial postoperative hypocalcemia (18%) and hypoparathyroidism <1-month after surgery (29%, P = 0.29) or between 1 and 6 mo after surgery (2%, P = 0.24). Of the 19 patients in the nonhypoparathyroidism group, 17 (89%) were off all calcium supplements by 6 mo postop. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with hyperthyroidism, those in active thyrotoxicosis at time of surgery have a higher rate of postoperative hypocalcemia compared to euthyroid patients. When hypocalcemia lasts >1 mo postoperatively, data from this study suggest that hypoparathyroidism may not be the primary etiology in many of these patients, who typically require calcium supplementation no more than 6 mo postoperatively.
