Abstract
Thyroid dysfunction directly affects human health and overall well-being; various approaches are available for the treatment of thyroid diseases, including conservative measures and surgical interventions. Despite advancements in conservative treatment, surgery remains the preferred option. Hypoparathyroidism is the primary cause of hospitalization after thyroidectomy, leading to cost-related concerns and a detrimental impact on patients' overall quality of life. Postoperative hypoparathyroidism can result in hypocalcemia, and these are challenging conditions that must be identified promptly to prevent immediate and long-term complications. This article focused on the presentation, risk factors, and management of hypoparathyroidism to increase awareness of the risks associated with certain variables, thereby enhancing our ability to predict the risk of this condition. Furthermore, this review highlighted the surgical techniques that may be utilized to prevent hypoparathyroidism. These considerations can help guide preoperative discussions regarding the benefits and potential risks of thyroidectomy.
