Abstract

Since surgical procedures are associated with complications and total thyroidectomy is no exception to it, the early diagnosis and treatment of hypocalcemia (tetany) arising as the complication of total thyroidectomy is of great importance and solace for the patients as well as their care takers. The aim of this manuscript was to demonstrate the well accepted notion about the use of early supplementary calcium after thyroid surgery in preventing and reducing the severity of hypocalcemia (tetany) in the post-operative period.
