Journal ArticleDOI
Randomized clinical trial of visualization versus neuromonitoring of recurrent laryngeal nerves during thyroidectomy
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that identification of the recurrent laryngeal nerve during thyroid surgery reduces injury and that intraoperative nerve monitoring may be of additional benefit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of Halle, Miami, Rome, and Vienna intraoperative iPTH assay criteria in guiding minimally invasive parathyroidectomy.
Marcin Barczyński,Aleksander Konturek,Alicja Hubalewska-Dydejczyk,Stanisław Cichoń,Wojciech Nowak +4 more
TL;DR: Rome criterion followed by Halle criterion was found to be the most useful in intraoperative detection of MGD, but their application in patients qualified for MIP with concordant results of sestamibi scanning and ultrasound of the neck would result in a significantly higher number of negative conversions to bilateral neck explorations and only a marginal improvement in the success rate of primary operations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Randomized Controlled Trial of Visualization versus Neuromonitoring of the External Branch of the Superior Laryngeal Nerve during Thyroidectomy
TL;DR: The use of IONM significantly improved the identification rate of the EBSLN during thyroidectomy, as well as reduced the risk of early phonation changes after thyroidectomy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metastases to the thyroid gland: seventeen cases operated on in a single clinical center
TL;DR: The most commonly clinically detected and treated surgically metastatic lesion of the thyroid gland is clear cell cancer of the kidney, and a total thyroidectomy seems to be warranted, although it does not affect the survival time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intraoperative parathyroid hormone assay improves outcomes of minimally invasive parathyroidectomy mainly in patients with a presumed solitary parathyroid adenoma and missing concordance of preoperative imaging.
Marcin Barczyński,Aleksander Konturek,Stanisław Cichoń,Alicja Hubalewska-Dydejczyk,Filip Gołkowski,Bohdan Huszno +5 more
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of routine use of IOPTH on the success rate of MIP as the primary outcome, and whether it value‐added to surgical decision‐making during the operations at this institution.
