Abstract:
With the increasing incidence of thyroid cancer, more and more thyroid operations are being performed.The relationship between parathyroid gland and thyroid gland is closed and complex, and parathyroid gland’s location is changeable and its blood supply is fragile.Hypoparathyroidism caused by the damage of parathyroid gland has become one of the common postoperative complications.The causes of injury or dysfunction of parathyroid gland are various, which are not only related to anatomical factors, including the variation in morphology, colour, quantity, location and blood supply, but also related to the operation skills of the surgeon or the use of energy devices, while the destruction of blood supply and tissue thermal damage are the main reasons.Therefore, expert mastery on the anatomical location of parathyroid gland and distribution of blood supply of parathyroid gland, careful anatomy during the operation to prevent accidental removal of parathyroid gland, rational use of energy devices to prevent mechanical damage of parathyroid gland and blood supply and thermal damage, is conducive to improving protection of parathyroid function and can reduce the occurrence of postoperative hypoparathyroidism.
