Clinical Trial Summary

The intensity of parathyroid fluorescence that occurs after intravenous injection of indocyanine green during the performance of a total thyroidectomy correlates with postoperative parathyroid function and could be used as a diagnostic marker of postoperative hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia.


Clinical Trial Description

The main objective of the study is to compare the intensity of parathyroid fluorescence among patients who present post-thyroidectomy hypocalcemia with that of patients who do not have it. Therefore, the following points will be studied:

- To study the correlation between parathyroid vascularization (intraoperative fluorescence intensity) and postoperative glandular function (serum calcium and parathormone levels).

- To compare the surgeon's subjective assessment of parathyroid fluorescence in the groups of patients with and without postoperative hypocalcemia.

- To compare the objective assessment of parathyroid fluorescence, by using specific computer software developed ad hoc, in the groups of patients with and without postoperative hypocalcemia. ;
