Risk Factors Of Postoperative Hypocalcemia
Öz
Introduction: Thyroid surgery has a range of complications from minor to major like haemetoma,surgical site infections to recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, dyspnea, hypocalcemia. With its common ratio hypocalcemia could be transient or persistent. Our aim in this study was to determine risk factors for hypocalcemia after thyroid surgery.
Methods: 179 patients who underwent thyroidectomy were divided retrospectively into
two groups in terms of development of postthyroidectomy hypocalcemia (G1 and
G2). Hypocalcemic patients were further divided into groups of persistent and
transient hypocalcemia. Patients data of age, gender, fine needle biopsy
status, history of thyroiditis, use of vessel sealing systems, dimension of
dominant nodule, surgical procedure, development of hypocalcemia with
histopathological results were recorded.
Results: Patients mean age was 50 (18-77). Female/male ratio was 5.4. Rate of
postoperative hypocalcecmia was 32.4 %. Persistent hypocalcemia was seen in 4.5
%. There was not any significance between groups according to
age,gender,dominant nodule dimension, history of thyroiditis,use of vessel
sealing device,preoperative fine needle biopsy,development of hypocalcemia.
Hypocalcemia was affected by the type of surgical procedure (p: 0,008) and by malignity status(p: 0,016). 8 parameters were analyzed
together and hypocalcemia was independently affected by malignity status (CI:
%95, p: 0.033 and 2.2 fold).
Discussion and Conclusion: Our study results revealed that patients who have thyroid malignancy and who underwent bilateral thyroidectomy have more likely to develop postoperative hypocalcemia.
