BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: To report a case of recalcitrant post-surgical hypocalcemia caused by hypoparathyroidism complicated by a chyle leak and octreotide use. CASE REPORT: A man in his 60s with a 4-month history of voice changes, 10-pound weight loss, and a right-sided neck mass presented with difficulty breathing for 1 week. He had a right laryngeal/hypopharyngeal mass, which was biopsied. Pathology results were positive for invasive squamous cell carcinoma...

Minimally invasive thyroidectomy (MIT) is increasingly being used for the thyroid tumors. The comparison of bilateral axillo-breast approach robotic thyroidectomy (BABART) with other MIT has not yet led to a unified conclusion with regard to surgical outcomes. To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature on the surgical outcomes of BABART compared with MIT. We performed a systematic search in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and Cochrane Library database for randomized control trials (RCTs) and non-RCTs that compare BABART to MIT...

BACKGROUND: By comparing the three lateral approaches to thyroidectomy, the feasibility and clinical effects were analyzed, and the advantages of the lateral approach were summarized. METHODS: From January 2022 to January 2023, 52 patients with thyroid cancer admitted to our department were selected and subjected to Lateral approach for thyroidectomy. Among them, 31 patients underwent thyroidectomy via the supraclavicular approach, 13 patients underwent endoscopic thyroidectomy via the subclavicular approach, and 8 patients underwent endoscopic thyroidectomy via the axillary approach...

OBJECTIVE: Results of ethanol ablation (EA) for controlling neck nodal metastases (NNM) in adult patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (APTC) beyond 6 months have rarely been reported. We now describe outcome results in controlling 71 NNM in 40 node-positive stage I APTC patients followed for 66 to 269 months. METHODS: All 40 patients were managed with bilateral thyroidectomy and radioiodine therapy and followed with neck ultrasound (US) for >48 months after EA...

OBJECTIVE: Hemithyroidectomy is often performed in the pediatric population for indeterminate or benign thyroid nodules. Prior studies confirmed the safety of same-day discharge for adults undergoing hemithyroidectomy or total thyroidectomy, but this has not been studied thoroughly in the pediatric population. Our goal was to determine differences in pediatric patients undergoing hemithyroidectomy who were admitted versus discharged for complications or factors to support same-day discharge...

We aimed to evaluate the risk of incident comorbidity among patients with chronic postsurgical hypoparathyroidism in real-life clinical practice in Spain. METHODS: We performed a multicenter, retrospective cohort study including patients with chronic postsurgical hypoparathyroidism lasting ≥3 years with at least a follow-up visit between January 1, 2022 and September 15, 2023 (group H)...

INTRODUCTION: Postoperative surgical hypoparathyroidism (PoSH) following thyroid surgery is an established complication. Several predictive factors have been identified including perioperative parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. The aim of the study is to compare the drop in perioperative PTH to postoperative day 1 PTH in predicting hypocalcaemia and hypoparathyroidism. METHODS: Records of consecutive patients who had either total or completion thyroidectomy with or without central neck dissection in a 3-year period in a single thyroid surgery unit were accessed to retrieve data on demographics, pathology, surgery, perioperative biochemistry and management...

Transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy has gained popularity due to its scarless nature, but the use of a handheld endoscope can lead to an unstable visual field. Soloassist II, a robotic scope holder, enables precise control using a joystick, ensuring stable vision. This study aims to evaluate the application and the advantages of Soloassist II in transoral thyroidectomy. Patients who underwent transoral thyroidectomy with Soloassist II or human assistance between June 2019 and May 2021 were reviewed. Patient demographics and surgical outcomes were compared...

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 ​PTMC cases. Outcomes, including 30-day mortality, reoperation rate, postoperative hypocalcemia, and recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury, were assessed...

It is crucial for doctors to decide whether a thyroid nodule is benign or malignant when a patient presents with one, as it will significantly impact how the patient is managed in the future. However, it is not as straightforward to determine between the two; even a physical examination, thyroid function test, ultrasonography, and biopsy have been well performed. It can be more stressful if a patient has an increased risk of malignancy, such as age (below 20- and above 60-year-old), solid nodule, rapid growth, hoarseness, lymphadenopathy, and microcalcifications on the ultrasonography...

BACKGROUND: Thyroglossal duct cyst (TGDC) is the most common congenital neck mass among the pediatric population. Less than 10% of the cases occur in adults. The standard of care for TGDC is surgical treatment with the Sistrunk procedure via a traditional transverse cervicotomy. This technique involves the resection of the cyst with its tract and the central portion of the hyoid bone body to avoid recurrence. The transoral vestibular approach has gained popularity as an alternative approach to open neck surgery in order to eliminate the transcervical scar associated with these procedures...

INTRODUCTION: Surgery in the central compartment after previous thyroidectomy involves an increased risk of injury to critical organs, including the parathyroids and recurrent laryngeal nerve. Contrastingly, primary central neck dissection involves a relatively low operative risk. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the outcomes of central neck dissection in primary versus revision settings with respect to the lymph node yield and complication rates. METHODS: This single-center prospective study included patients who underwent primary or revision neck dissection surgery for histologically confirmed thyroid malignancy between January 2018 and January 2022...

INTRODUCTION: Well-differentiated thyroid cancer is among the most common types of endocrine cancer. Despite its increasing prevalence, the prognosis of thyroid cancer is rather good, with a five-year survival rate ranging between 80% and 90%, depending on the histological type. Not only the post-treatment complications and the side effects of the lifelong medication but also the possibility of a recurrence may have a negative impact on the patient's quality of life (QoL). OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of total thyroidectomy on the QoL of patients with well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma...
