Abstract

Estimating the proportion of postsurgical hypoparathyroidism and determining the relation between the level of thyroidectomy and postsurgical hypoparathyroidism condition. Subjects and methods:Prospective, descriptive, cross-sectional study. Eligible patient including 84patients postsurgical thyroidectomy from 1/2015-12/2016 at Hue Medical University Hospital. The patients have been done the preoperative biochemical tests, classified the pathology resutis, quantified total Calcium (pre-op and post-op), recordod the conditions of postsurgical hypoparathyroidism. Based on finally results, we have analyzed and concluded according to the objective of study. Results: The proportion of temporary postsurgical hypoparathyroidism was 27.4% (23/84), total Calcium decreasing was 54.7% (46/84). The level of thyroidectomy affected the proportion of postsurgical hypoparathyroidism [p<0.05. Risk ratio 7.44; 95% CI (1.03-5392)] Conclusion: Determining the hypoparathyroidism condition on the early stage for preventive treatment. Improving surgical skils, applying new methods to minimize the injuries of parathyroid glands thoughout operations
