Abstract: | The most common complication of parathyroid surgery is operative failure. Recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis, permanent hypoparathyroidism,hematoma, and error in diagnosis can also complicate initial parathyroid exploration. This article discusses specific ways to try to prevent these and other problems and gives detailed strategies to evaluate and manage affected patients. |
