In a large single-center cohort, Graves’ disease patients with preoperative TSH ≥10.0 μIU/mL had greater blood loss, larger preoperative thyroid enlargement, and longer operations, suggesting that avoiding iatrogenic hypothyroidism during s
A qualitative study found that fatigue after thyroidectomy is common, disruptive, and often unexpected. Patients described major impacts on work and daily life, and many wanted surgeons to warn them about it before surgery.
A 2026 cross-sectional study suggests that routine postdissection vagal stimulation during thyroidectomy detects recurrent laryngeal nerve dysfunction more sensitively than RLN stimulation alone and may reduce the risk of bilateral vocal co
A large South Korean cohort found ATA-guideline de-escalation reduced total thyroidectomy, RAI use, and permanent hypocalcemia in papillary thyroid carcinoma, without significant loss of 5-year disease-free survival.
A randomized trial comparing routine calcium supplementation with PTH-guided selective supplementation found no significant difference in preventing post-thyroidectomy hypocalcemia, offering flexibility in clinical practice.
A nationwide cohort study highlights that thyroid cancer patients with permanent hypoparathyroidism face significantly elevated risks of kidney stones, renal failure, and major cardiovascular events, necessitating comprehensive long-term fo
A nationwide cohort study reveals that permanent postoperative hypoparathyroidism significantly increases the risk of renal insufficiency, nephrolithiasis, and major adverse cardiac events in thyroid cancer patients, highlighting the need f
A randomized controlled trial demonstrates that a 3-month standardized neck and orofacial rehabilitation program significantly improves swallowing-related quality of life and functional recovery in post-thyroidectomy patients, effectively a
This systematic review and meta-analysis suggests that thyroid lobectomy may offer comparable oncologic outcomes to total thyroidectomy for selected patients with sporadic medullary thyroid cancer, while significantly reducing postoperative
A multicenter randomized clinical trial demonstrates that selective calcium supplementation based on early postoperative PTH levels is as effective as routine prophylaxis in preventing hypocalcemia after total thyroidectomy, offering a stra
A systematic review and meta-analysis of over 400,000 patients reveals that while older adults face higher relative risks for nerve injury and hematoma following thyroidectomy, the absolute risk remains low, confirming the procedure’s
A comprehensive meta-analysis suggests that for intermediate-risk papillary thyroid carcinoma with unilateral lateral lymph node metastasis, lobectomy provides oncological outcomes comparable to total thyroidectomy, challenging the necessit
A randomized trial shows that a 7-day course of oral corticosteroids does not enhance vocal fold remobilization or voice quality in unilateral vocal fold paralysis following thyroid or parathyroid surgery, underscoring the continued importa
This multicenter randomized clinical trial demonstrates that fiber-based near-infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) enhances intraoperative parathyroid gland identification during thyroidectomy and bilateral parathyroidectomy without increasing
A single parathyroid hormone (PTH) measurement 6 hours after total thyroidectomy can accurately predict the risk of transient and permanent hypoparathyroidism, enabling targeted monitoring and potential reduction in hospital stays.
