Abstract

Introduction: Hypocalcaemia is a frequent complication after total thyroidectomy, postoperative dosing of parahormone is important to identify the risk of early symptomatic hypocalcaemia after total thyroidectomy, but it is important to identify other types of indicators. Objective: to correlate the dose of total calcium and ionic calcium with the dose of paratohormone as a prognostic value of hypoparathyroidism in patients undergoing total thyroidectomy in the General Surgery service of the Central Hospital of the Social Welfare Institute from June 2018 to June 2019. Methodology: Retrospective descriptive study, in which factors such as demographic, clinical, laboratory and pathological data were evaluated. Medical, surgical and office records were used. Results: 58 patients were evaluated, 93 were women. The average age was 52 ± 14 years. 65.5% of the patients presented normocalcaemia, 13.8% Transient hypoparathyroidism (HT) and 20.7% Permanent hypoparathyroidism (HP). Before the operation, the patients present normal total calcium (CAT) and ionized calcium (CAI); It should be noted that patients with HP present lower CAT and CAI dosages in all controls and patients with HT show an increase in the third control (96hs). Conclusion: A patient with hypocalcaemia determined with IAC at 24h showed a risk factor of 90 times more than HP. The measurement of CAT 96hs and CAI 24hs, showed a high correlation to predict the HP measured by PTH (r = 0.734 and r = 0.719, respectively).
