Subjective and objective screening measures for dysphonia pre-thyroidectomy
… established between post-surgical dysphonia and thyroidectomy procedures and various studies identify that a large percentage of these patients have dysphonia after surgery. Most of these incidences of dysphonia resolve six months after the procedure, but there are reported cases of dysphonia …

Comparison of the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting Between women undergoing open or robot-assisted thyroidectomy
BACKGROUND: Open thyroidectomy is associated with a high incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) of up to 70 %. Use of the recently introduced robot-assisted endoscopic thyroidectomy using a gasless transaxillary approach has been increasing because of its several advantages over open …

The Impact of Family History On Medullary Thyroid Cancer In Men2A Patients
… stated that some patients may delay prophylactic thyroidectomy if certain criteria are met. One criterion is a less aggressive family history of MTC but whether families with the same mutated codon have variable MTC aggressiveness is not well described. We developed several novel measures of MTC …

The Role of The Thyroid Gland in Regulating Synthesis and Release of Luteinizing Hormone in The Rat
The effects of thyroidectomy and thyroxine (T(,4)) therapy on the synthesis and release of luteinizing hormone (LH) by the anterior pituitary gland (AP) of ovariectomized (Ovx) rats were investigated. Immediately after ovariectomy, rats were thyroidectomized (Tx) or sham-Tx. Starting thirty days …

Initial experience of intraoperative identification of parathyroid glands with elastic scattering spectroscopy
… due to damage to the parathyroid glands during a thyroidectomy is a well-known surgical complication. The current gold standard intraoperative method for identifying parathyroid glands is surgical judgment; other methods are limited in both their sensitivity and convenience. There is a clear need …

The role of thyroid and steroid hormones in maturation of the adreline-sensitive reabsorptive mechanism of the fetal lung
… lung which allows this transition to take place. Thyroidectomy in the fetal sheep at 118 days gestation (term = 147 days) prevented the development of adrenaline- or cyclic AMP-sensitivity which, in euthyroid fetuses, resulted in the capacity to absorb lung liquid from 130 days onwards. Studies in …
