Abstract

Objective: The incidence of and risk factors for hypocalcemia following thyroidectomy were evaluated in this study. Material and Methods: One hundred and ninety thyroidectomy patients were evaluated retrospectively for factors that might contribute to postoperative hypocalcemia; age, hyperthyroidism, malignancy, the extent of surgery (total/near total/subtotal thyroidectomy), cervical lymph node dissection, and incidental parathyroidectomy. Results: The rate of transient hypocalcemia/hypoparathyroidism was 19.47%, with a permanent hypoparathyroidism rate of 4.74%. Factors affecting the development of transient hypocalcemia were found as being operated for hyperthyroidism, and use of total thyroidectomy as the surgical method. Total thyroidectomy increased the risk of postoperative hypocalcemia by 3.16 fold. Patients undergoing operations for hyperthyroidism had a 2.3 fold increase, and those undergoing total thyroidectomy had a 3.16 fold risk of postoperative hypocalcemia. Conclusion: Hyperthyroidism surgery and total thyroidectomy lead to a higher risk of developing early postoperative or transient hypocalcemia. According to our results, no significant relationship could be established between any of the study parameters and persistent hypocalcemia

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, tiroidektomi ameliyatı sonrasında görülen hipokalseminin sıklığı ve hipokalsemiye etki edebilecek faktörler araştırılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Tiroidektomi ameliyatı yapılmış 190 hasta, hipokalsemiye etki edebilecek olan yaş (50 yaş üstü/altı), cins, hipertiroidi olup olmaması, malignite olup olmaması, yapılan ameliyatın genişliği (total/totale yakın/subtotal tiroidektomi), boyun diseksiyonu yapılıp yapılmaması ve insidental paratiroidektomi var olup olmaması faktörleri açısından retrospektif olarak incelenmiştir. Bulgular: Tüm hastalarda, %19,47 oranında geçici hipokalsemi/hipoparatiroidi, %4,74 oranında ise kalıcı hipoparatiroidi saptanmıştır. Çalışmada, geçici hipokalsemi oluşumunu etkileyen faktörler olarak, hipertiroidi nedeniyle ameliyat edilme ve cerrahi yöntem olarak total tiroidektomi uygulanması tespit edilmiştir. Hipertiroidi cerrahisinde 2,3 kat, total tiroidektomide 3,16 kat artmış postoperatif hipokalsemi saptanmıştır. Sonuç: Hipertiroidi cerrahisi ve total tiroidektomi postoperatif erken dönem veya geçici hipokalsemi açısından daha yüksek risk taşımaktadır. Kalıcı hipokalsemi açısından anlamlı fark gösteren bir faktör saptanmamıştır
