The mechanism of hypocalcaemia following thyroidectomy
Acta Endocrinol (Copenh).
1985 Jun.
Abstract
The mechanism of transient hypocalcaemia following thyroidectomy was studied in 29 consecutive patients undergoing thyroid surgery. Eight of 27 (30%) patients who had a partial thyroidectomy developed transient hypocalcaemia. Hypocalcaemia was attributable to a reduction in renal tubular reabsorption of calcium (P less than 0.05), but was not associated with changes in serum values of immunoassayable parathyroid hormone or calcitonin.
