Introduction: Intraoperative parathyroid gland (PG) localization remains challenging during thyroid surgeries, contributing to postoperative hypocalcemia and hypoparathyroidism. This study assessed the efficacy of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence in identifying and preserving PGs during thyroid surgeries and its correlation with postoperative outcomes.
Materials And Methods: This ambispective observational study included 57 patients undergoing thyroid surgeries using ICG and compared outcomes with 56 historical controls.

Background: Thyroid surgeries are intricate operations that carry the risk of damaging the parathyroid glands, which can result in hypocalcemia and potential long-term hypoparathyroidism. Innovative surgical techniques including Intraoperative Nanocarbon Staining (INS), aim to enhance the preservation of parathyroid glands. This study assesses the effectiveness of INS combined with parathyroid autotransplantation in reducing postoperative complications and preserving parathyroid function.

Hypoparathyroidism is one of the main complications after total thyroidectomy, severely affecting patients' quality of life. How to effectively protect parathyroid function after surgery and reduce the incidence of hypoparathyroidism has always been a key research area in thyroid surgery. Therefore, precise localization of parathyroid glands during surgery, effective imaging, and accurate surgical resection have become hot topics of concern for thyroid surgeons.
