2016, International Journal of SurgeryCitation Excerpt :The main cause seems to be the impairment of parathyroid blood supply subsequent to surgical manipulation. The possible causes are the excision of one or more parathyroid gland or an insufficiency of parathyroid blood supply subsequent to surgical manipulation [12,27]. The accidental parathyroid removal is a rare event, mainly due to an intrathyroidal or subcapsular parathyroid gland [28–30].
The differential diagnosis of central compartment radioactive iodine uptake after thyroidectomy: Anatomic and surgical considerations
2014, Endocrine PracticeCitation Excerpt :This is evident in pretreatment nuclear scans. As shown in Figure 4 C, the pyramidal lobe of the thyroid gland is a structure that can demonstrate foci of increased RAI uptake in postsurgical scintigraphic scans (5,6,25). This uptake may be related to the size of the pyramidal lobe, the distance that it extends superiorly, and therefore the completeness of pyramidal lobe resection.
