Summary

Hypoparathyroidism is the most frequent complication in total thyroidectomy. The use of near-infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) intraoperatively, seems to reduce the rate of transient hypoparathyroidism. Unfortunately, no effect on permanent hypoparathyroidism has been shown.

In order to cover every aspect of the impact of NIRAF in thyroid surgery, an evaluation in low-volume, non-parathyroid institutions is needed. This is the overall aim of our current studies. The objective of this specific study is to evaluate the impact of NIRAF on immediate, transient and permanent hypoparathyroidism following total thyroidectomy in low-volume, non-parathyroid institutions.
