RESUMO
Intraoperative identification of the parathyroid gland is very important during thyroid and parathyroid surgery.Recently, intrinsic fluorescence of the parathyroid gland was identified and reported.We report the case of a 45-year-old woman with thyroid papillary cancer.Before surgery, neck and chest CT showed a thyroid tumor(20mm)of the right lobe and an aberrant right subclavian artery.Her thyroid cancer(T1N1M0, Stage â )was resected in December 2017(right lobectomy and lymph node dissection).During surgery, her parathyroid glands were visually inspected by the surgeon as well as by a ready-made photodynamic eye(PDE-neo)system.Diagnosis was performed using the intraoperative fast pathological method.Her inferior laryngeal nerve was non-recurrent(Toniato â ¡A).This photodynamic eye(PDE-neo)system is an effective and useful method that decreases the operation time and enables faster detection of the parathyroid gland.
