ABSTRACT
Thyroid surgery complications include voice change, vocal fold paralysis, and hypoparathyroidism. The voice status should be evaluated pre- and post-surgery. In patients with voice change, laryngeal visualization is needed.Intraoperative neuromonitoring helps reduce recurrent laryngeal nerve injury. The measurement of serum calcium, parathyroid hormone, and 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels is recommended to evaluate perioperative parathyroid function and prescribe supplementation preoperatively if necessary. For postoperative hypoparathyroidism, vitamin D and oral calcium supplementation are indicated based on serum parathyroid hormone and calcium levels and the severity of symptoms or signs of hypocalcemia. If long-term treatment is required, the appropriateness of treatment should be evaluated based on the disease itself and the consideration of potential benefits and harms from long-term replacement.
