“…This is the current trend advocated by Vittal S [10]. Sparing the main trunk and ligating only the branches of the inferior thyroid artery close to the gland preserves the blood supply of the parathyroid gland [11]. By using this technique only 1 patient developed temporary hypoparathyroidism and none developed permanent hypoparathyroidism.…”

Permanent hypoparathyroidism may be due to direct trauma to the parathyroid glands, devascularization of the glands, or removal of the glands during surgery.…”
