dc.description.abstractObjective: Total thyroidectomy is increasingly accepted as a choice of treatment not only for malignant but also for benign thyroid disorders. Nowadays, postoperative hypocalcaemia is the major concern in total thyroidectomy. The aim of this study is to quantify risk factors contributing to postoperative hypocalcaemia rates. Material and methods: Medical records of 88 patients who underwent total thyroidectomy from 2000 to 2004 were reviewed. In addition to demographic information, postoperative hypocalcaemia and related risk factors were identified. Results: The most common indication for total thyroidectomy was multinodular goiter (53.4%). One patient with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma died because of respiratory failure (1.1%). Temporary and permanent hypoparathyroidism rates were 26.1% and 3.4 %, respectively. Parathyroid reimplantation was performed to 7 patients (7.9%). Indication of surgery was statistically associated with an increased incidence of hypocalcemia (P=0.019 for thyroid carcinoma and P=0.005 for completion thyroidectomy), whereas, sex, age, neck dissection and parathyroid reimplantation were not. Conclusions: Postoperative hypocalcaemia is the major concern for thyroid surgeons. Completion and total thyroidectomy for thyroid malignancy increased postoperative hypoparathyroidism. With meticulous attention to operative technique and anatomical detail, surgeons can achieve low morbidity rates.en_US
