Establishing a predictive model of hypoparathyroidism after total thyroidectomy and central lymph node dissection for postoperative calcium supplementation selectively.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The core goal of this article is to find some meaningful risk factors that can affect the postoperative hypoparathyroidism of thyroid cancer, create an effective prediction model on this basis, and use it to selectively implement routine prophylactic calcium supplementation for patients after thyroid carcinoma surgery.

Methods

The clinicopathological characteristics of patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) who underwent conventional bilateral total thyroidectomy (TT) + bilateral central lymph node dissection from January 2020 to August 2021 in the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University were retrospectively analyzed. Firstly, this study analyzed the relationship between postoperative hypocalcemia and hypoparathyroidism. Then, we included many potential
